How's things. Did your video turn out allright from the autosalon?

Anyway I have had my bar done. It was through SAS paint and panel down winfield way. He done a great job. The guy at SAS his name escapes me now Mario I think has a mate who actually does the welding. Cost about $100 for welding and a bit over $300 for Mario to finish and paint it. I will try and send you a picture. I had the car at the last cruise and unfortunately will probably miss the next cruise due to being away.

I got mine done by someone in Thebarton I think... about $100 to weld it... then about $150 to paint the whole bar at a paint place.

Can find out their name if ur interested.

Uhm.. Is that the standard bar with the bit of plastic that the number plate sits on taken out?

That's what I want to do

[grepin]

Its not the dead standard bar. Looking at your Avatar it would be the same as yours. You remove the plastic section and need to cut the metal brace behind it. Takes 2secs with an angle grinder.

Boosted32..

Where did you get the front mesh.. It looks more silver than mine..

I got mine from Roco Brothers and when walking up to the car some times you can't even see the silver

[grepin]

Not to detracted from the origonal thread but Im going to anyway sorry Bugs. Joel how do you like the bliz boost controller? What features can you tell me about it and how do you use those features? Did you consider AVCR? What price can your mate get them for?

Cheers

Got the mesh from car toys on port road, just up from south road.

Ok the boost controller isn't actually in yet as i'm at the moment typing with black hands and doing my rear brakes

Anyway yes I did consider the AVCR but i've been told by to many people/tuners that it is a piece of crap.

Apparently you think you get it setup right and then it goes out and you have to fiddle with it again.

Whereas the Blitz apparently you set and forget the apexi avcr isn't like that.

With the Blitz SBC-iD it is a duel solanoid boost controller that has the usual fuzzy logic and manual/auto modes, scramble etc..

It also has an addon which is called the Power-iD I think which this is the part I liked. you can set boost to certian speeds i.e 0-60 12psi then 60-100 15psi then 100+ 100psi

Anyway you get the idea. It also tells you estimated horsepower/kw, 0-100 dash 1/4 etc it also has graphs of boost from down low to up top etc..

its got a record function etc..

anway it is around the $1045 mark bran new then I think it costs around $50 to get it over here.

BUT you can buy one here but every 1 says they are $1600 or more.

OR.. You can buy them from where I also get the PowerFC's for ~$900.

The Boost levels at different speeds is what i want as on std boost there is no where near as much wheel spin in first but it is controllable.

Yeah the blitz ones are supposed to be the best at controlling boost. I was going to get a dual sbc but then I got my turbo and will have an external gate, so I will set it and forget. John with the gtrs is trying to sell one, while they dont ahve all the fancy functions they give accurate boost control.

thanks guys for the info.I`m running the standard bar so it is going to be a bit harder making a good opening.

Grepin-video turned out well but i thought there was cars there:boobs:

Boosted32-When are you coming out for a cruise with us dude.

Matt

[boosted32]

I'll come on a cruise when I get a chance!! I have been in cairns for 3 weeks... am going to singapore middle of next month and leicester in england at the end of october. All for work... we are installing our software system. So I haven't had a chance to finish the red car... still have to put in standard cams and retune... and fit my R33 box and get tailshaft shortened... then I can cruise... so maybe November... urgh

Boosted32,

Nice front bar. Can you find out who did that job for us, it's a good price and the quality looks good.

Ta,

Lachlan.

Boosted32, can you give me the details of the place where you got your front bumper painted?

Also, I need to cut a hole on the bumper cause at the moment air isn't going through properly, the vents are blocked by you know how the standard bumper has all those lines....does anyone know where I can get this done?

[boosted32]

plastic welding done at:

Headlamp Supplies & plastic crash repairs

28 Holland street, Thebarton

8443 7077

(I cut the bumper myself)

Painted at:

Just see what prices they can do... I got it done a while ago and we did some of the preparation ourself so it was cheaper.
