haha, mine's in 2WD at the moment, getting ready for a dyno hopefully......I'd have to be suicidal to give it too much right now. I hit it hard at just over 60kph the other day and it got sideways on dry road almost immediately. If I fang it with a slight ripple in the road right now its too much of a handfull.

chad, would be interesting to see how she does in 2wheel drive, id say nowhere too fast lol...not in a straight line anyways. Im up for hillzy when you are mate.

you'd be suprised how much grip it still gets, my coilovers a fair soft, so it grips well, wont even spin the rears when boost hits in second gear, keen as for the hills, might have to get Jenkies to organise another Gorge mission, but i think i'll keep it in 4wd, i seem to still get sidway with it on. :D

impressive pete. geez, mine is a handful with 260rwkw, let alone that much...can i ask where you ended up choosing to get it tuned?

I haven't decided yet Ryan.......I want someone who knows PFC's backwards but doesn't want my children as payment, lol

yeah I think my very stiff suspension doesn't help because it lets go of the rear every time in 2nd as it starts to boost and I don't think the Attessa Pro likes it too much.

If your talking about hills, im up for it when i get my suspension done, trust me i do know how to drive.. Tom was enjoying the nice easy drive cough cough this morning while we were late for school.

doesn't matter if you can drive out there! depends on if you can keep up to some of these nut cases :)

but Pete..... isn't it more fun breaking traction like that? :banana:

its ok if it keeps some sort of reasonable line, but this thing just snaps too quick to be fun so I'm looking forward to 4WD again

    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
