It was a good day, pretty happy with the 311rwkw :P just need to work out why when i turned the boost controller up the actual boost level went down :) Pretty sure im gonna have to go E85 some time soon as well :D

Yeah, major thanks to the Wests, who insisted the day go ahead, after the warning. The reason we had to close the door on the louder runs, is that if a second complaint was received, they could be issued with a on the spot fine of $60,000, which I can't believe a fine of that substance could be issued without evidence or proof of excessive noise, emissions etc.

Matt, I'll get in contact with Troy from Adelaide Tyrepower for you. Hit me up with a PM and send me your email address and I'll let you know how to redeem your prize!!

Daniel.

Ahh well at least they were decent about it and didn't decide to defect.

So props to the Sturt Police officers. :blink:

Its likely it was the few unit/houses across the road; one of the blokes has a really nice older ford from memory. Maybe he no likey the jap crap. :blink:

your joking?

ppl complained about noise,coming from a car workshop, on a saturday afternoon??

fck me, very sad.

This is Adelaide ... full of whingers! Whinge about the international airport noise, whinge about freeway traffic. Kinda obvious a performance workshop will have cars in it innit? :blink:

I can tell you now that the police couldn't really do dick. They'd be required to have an EPA rep come out to do the testing. Ambient vs omitted acoustic distrubance above the ambient noise of general traffic. Being on a main arterial road that'd be hard to prove. I think the complaint was more to do with so many imports and their owners in one place at the one time.

:blink:

for some stupid reason mine only made 66kw. Even last year made 85kw with a shocking missfire. No one new what was going on. Even ran in rwd for one and still the same. Strange.

    • Wow the colour matched hard top completely transforms the car. Are there any nice front lip options for the car or is that off the table?
    • Generally yes but for some reason I've been ruthless this time around!  I might even need to do another tip run after the way I've finally been able to hit the delete button on shit I've stepped over, stepped around and tripped over for the past 10 years!
    • I just quote the Rolling Stones. Paint it black.
    • It just depends if you're like me with a high level of OCD for doing something like hardlines, and highly critical of the little things, and then bugger all patience to get it how my brain pictures it
    • More than happy with the colour match Talking to the painter he recommended to give the top a few weeks for the paint to 100% cure prior to sealing it with the ceramic stuff Also, because why not..... I have a fancy pants Fluidampr harmonic balancer on order, the 2.5 engine uses the OEM 2.0 balancer off the old motor as the 2.5 balancer is a larger unit and doesn't fit clearance wise, which, because the two engines have different harmonics, isn't optimal, the OEM balancer does the job, but as the gear driven balancer in the bottom end is removed to fit a RWD application there is slightly more vibration, the Fluidampr helps with the harmonics that the gear driven balancer once took care of,  basically makes life easier on the oil pump and bearings when thrashing it around Hopefully the weather gets better soon because I'm keen for some cruising around, and currently, with the winds and storms we are getting, the amount of detritus being blown around from trees on the road isn't something I want to be driving around in
