Oh don't worry! I'm hatching a plan!

What, are you going to borrow the Option 1 S14 :starwars:

If a certain person was not involved in this event I would have entered but a 60 will not be good enough to win so meh.........

Exactly, should be a great day! I haven't seen an entry list.

Berry's gonna bring the 32 so that'll be fantastic.

No doubt there'll be plenty of stuff to ogle at in the car show too.

I gotta get someone to drive to 34 out to display.

Get on board Ben.

I'm out.

There was 1 thing that I was not happy with when i was building the enigine, the rings just didn't quite sit right. They were a set by JE as ACL couldn't supply any rings for them. I have done 10,000 km on the new motor running 12-14 psi and have pulled it down as part of a diagnostic process. I wanted to see how the rings were doing in particular.

The bearings, bore, buckets, cams etc are perfect, the rings though, "Not, Happy, Jan! uneven ware.

I have done some homework over the last month, ACL changed the ring specs part way through the production run. So, there are 2 different ring sets for 1 pistion part number. You can't buy a ring set for the earlier spec pistions, I have the early spec pistions. I'm pretty sure they were made by ROSS in the US for ACL. Ross can supply a set of rings for us, will just take a while.

Unfortunately I won't be compeeting, but I will be watching and snapping shots.

bugger :) will you have it together for the QLD Champs at Morgan Park?

I'm looking forward to both these events. Diff's coming out tomorrow - tired of the open wheeling viscous diff so I'm planning to weld it up. Would love to get hold of a wing too, but I think I've left it a bit late.

ended up shimming the V-LSD instead. Mainly so that its still nice to drive on the road. Hopefully it works OK on the track for a while too. Should be a few tenths in that if it eliminates some wheelspin. Cost next to nothing thanks to Paul at Option 1 Garage, so I figured its worth a try. Plus it maintains my 'full street trim' excuse >_<

    • Do you think the guys in Penrith are install the E85 Kit?
    • Thanks Pac!   I will reach out to them!
    • Yes, but 2 things of the top of my head, 1. Legalities of nitrous on a street car. 2. No chop chop. I fully understand that there's much cheaper ways to make power, and whilst a wet 50 shot is fairly cheap to install, bottle fills are expensive, and bottles always need to be refilled, and nitrous also has its own inherent issues with reliability, and tuning, from my experience of others using nitrous, it doesn't take alot to lunch a engine real quick if something goes slightly wrong when spraying, if I wanted a big chunk of additional powers, a spooly boy would make alot more sense, disregarding the additional engineering, supporting mods and other logistical issues of sticking a spooly boy on a car that came naturally aspirated from factory  In the end I'm not racing for sheep stations, and I don't really care if people make more power, or are faster than me, or spend less, or more than me, the only thing the car needs to do is drive around and make me smile, which it is doing now Really, I just want a shiny new intake to look at when I'm cleaning the engine bay, and of course, some more induction doorts, and maybe even that 5kw for that elusive 200hp cherry on top that I might get If the FAB9 intake plenum, TB and air filter box thing doesn't eventuate for whatever reason, Plasmaman do one, not as fancy looking, and a fair chunk of more cash is required when including the TB and other bits and pieces that are required to install it, but, it is another option that is available to me if FAB9 one does fall down (but I really, really.....really, want the FAB9 one though) TL;DR. You want what you want
    • Been so long since I have been here,seeing SDU is dead. I had that problem on my gtr in 2006 but luckily there was no engine damage,it was inspected by Hytech Engines,race bearings and extended crank collar put in and that was about it. Hopefully yours is sorted now.
