did some spur of the moment fishing today with a couple mates. lost a rod/reel :/ thing went down in the water quickly...

haha was next to a BMW 4WD at traffic lights. I was on the merging lane just after the lights. Lights go green and I casually take off planning to merge infront of the 4wd. As i start crawling off the line, the 4wd launches off hitting the rev limiter and shoots off. Saw on the back that it was a BMW x5 M haha, was not expecting that to happen ~_~

4.4ltr v8 twin turbo 400kw ownage haha

aslong as you dont try and take on a porsche cayenne you'll be fine :P f**k those things fly

i got ALOT of hooks.. LOL anyone need hooks, i got hooks

anyone have a net? alvin- theres alot of small bait fish under the pier, if we had a net we could have put out some livies for the bigger fish to smash

An X5 M is no slouch either

So we ran them down the drag strip. The Cayenne did a 4.7 second 0-100km/h time on the way to a 12.9 second time for the 400m dash, while the BMW X5 M did 4.8 second 0-100km/h on the way to a 13.0 for the 400 metre dash. Call it hair-splitting, but that's how they ended up.

    • Was planning on getting an R35 MAF and the adapter, should this be okay? Also any idea where I could get my hands on an intake pipe?
    • I mean yes, if you're starting from scratch on an unknown engine yes you don't need to be doing all kinds of math in the background but if you're doing relatively minor changes like AFM + injectors + boost up with some aftermarket turbos it takes quite a bit of math if you want to do something like maintain OEM fuel + timing tables but compressed and then a bit more load scale up top. I think I've spent too much time working on big engineering nightmares though so I'm a big fan of trying to constrain the scope of whatever work I'm doing as much as possible and trying to get it right before moving on. For example, a local owner just did the usual E85 + single turbo conversion to his R32 GTR and nearly burned his car to the ground doing some spirited driving up the local mountains. Turbine is unshielded and too close to the hood insulation. It's tough to balance "just get the project done" and "seemingly small details can cause massive setbacks I'm not willing to deal with".
    • No idea about Neil's steering wheel, but I have the same behaviour in the Stagea. I doubt it has ever been messed with so might be normal. Indicating to turn right at a roundabout and correcting even a little bit to the left to go around will cancel the indicator. Never considered it an issue other than it being a bit odd.
    • Does anyone know if this is off centered? Looks like it, when I indicate to go right, but turn my steering wheel slightly left it cancels (was always like that even before I started messing around with it) was wondering if anyone else has the same issue?
    • Nothing photo worthy since last update, lots of little plumbing bits for the AAC/Cold start valves, and unfortunately I still need another couple of parts for the brake booster line and the AAC into the plenum. Otherwise it all looks good to start up engine wise, onto checking the electrics/interior
