Hello,

Another Update.. sorry has been awhile, Most of our time has been spent installing the Vipec V88 and the M&W CDI. As the majority of the wiring system is now run from the V88.

Exhaust has been fully installed, just looked at plumbing the Wastegate screamer back inline with a 2" V band clamp.

All braided Fuel lines are finished and has been pressure tested for leaks.

4" HKS Drag exhaust, full stainless system with Removable Titianium Cannon.

This is a very impressive build to say the least. I jump on here and check atleast once a week to see if there are any updates.

Out of curiosity are you planning on running this thing at the strip in Mackay? if so i am making the drive down from Townsville to see it run lol

Looking good, I love the way you have mounted the fuel cell.

WHat coils are you using for the M&W Cdi?

We are using Spitfire Coils, they are not recomended to run with the CDI, but if we run with the CDI coils the Center Coil cover will not fit back on..

what pump are you using for pre-lube?

Ours is the EP4 Varna Pre Lube pump.

cost us around $600 Aus when the dollar was shit, so it would be alot cheaper now.

- on 12volts can flow 6.6LPM at 60psi.

- on 24volts can flow 15LMP at 60psi

Cheers mate, Yes this car will be at every event next year in mackay.. hoping to get enough practice under my belt for the Jamboree next year and chase the record of (worlds fastest Manual H pattern GTR in the world, currently Theo W .. 8.95secs) definately not and easy task.

thats a crazy amount of earls fittings, farout that woulda cost alot

Haha yea it was, im not a fan of silicon and bulky clamps. Thats why we have decided to run with all braid and solid mounts for the Adel wiggins clamps. Braid price on this car goes well over the 10k mark.

stock gtr wheels, avatar is just a pic.

wonder if you could dye the filter purple without affecting its flow characteristics?

Haha, f**k no i hate the green too. I bought that filter at the 2010 Jamboree very cheap, I am buying a purple one they are only $30 bucks off ebay for the replacement filter.

would you consider not running an air filter?

Not a chance mate, When u pay $6000+ just for the turbo we are definately running the pod filter. Have alook at what happens if u dont run a filter. It Wears the blades down.

check out NENGUN. They are having huge wheel discounts on rays this month only. up to 44% off I think they said. Plus the aussie dollar to yen isnt too bad atm either at 80yen

    • Uncle Duncan Yeap, FI Interchiller  Works well, normal IAT's cruising with the WTA only went from 50°c+ to 25-30°c with the interchiller  Before, when on it hard, the IAT would see 80-90°c, now, the highest has been was around 38°c IIRC IAT is measured under the blower hat I recommend it for the street or strip where your only on it hard for 10 or so seconds, but it wouldn't be efficient for sustained track use as it would heat soak from the AC turning off or whatever it does during WOT to protect the compressor It really needs the AC running for it to not heat soak and keep the WTA coolant chilled My WTA coolant temps when just cruising is around 2°c
    • Hey Mark...sorry to interrupt your career change to hair dressing... but...did you ever fit the interchiller to the commodore, and if so how was it? And, who made it?
    • I've been pondering this, I really enjoy the convertible thing, for me, it's like riding a motorbike, without all the issue of riding a motorbike, mainly, my old sore arthritic joints getting beaten up, and, being able to do it in shorts and a T-shirt and not needing a helmet and all the other gear required, especially like wearing jackets and pants in the summer, or needing 6 layers of cloths in the winter, or not having wet weather gear handy when your 100km away from home on the bike when it decides to start raining As for the hard top and its Coupe look, whilst I do lose all that open top feeling that I really enjoy, from my experience with the NB with a detachable hard top, the cabin is a much nicer place to be, the difference in noise for one, a hard top quietens down the interior, alot, with the soft top up or down it's pretty noisy, which, after 5 or so hours, can get tiring But, as you stated, the detachable hard top totally changes the look of the car, in a really good way, and for me, the look of a detachable hard top is so much better than the PRHT which looks more like a after thought with its weird bulbous rear roof line For me, the minimal effort of putting in on, or storing it after removing it, is well worth the time and effort for the look alone And yes, I'm sure the next owner will be grateful for it as well.......  
    • I get into huffs with people when I suggest the MX5 looks so much better as a coupe than it does as convertible. Pretty sure I don't prefer the convertible version of anything. Good job on the hardtop! The next buyer will appreciate.
    • IMO wrap does have its uses, but like you said, quality wrap, and professional installation, would probably cost want a quality paint job does, but, the paint, if maintained, is basically for life, and much easier to touch up if required  In other news: it's pissing down here, with thunder, lightning and only some small hail "at this stage", luckily all "my" cars are undercover  I've also been contacted by a guy in Newcastle about the SS, he said he will come down next weekend for a look, we'll see how that transpires I guess 🫰
