dude its stainless Steel. the shininess advertises itself.

its quietened down over the week.. really not so loud anymore. i do like the sound noow.

but now to tackle this boost issue. :(

Did any RS models come with LSDs? Havent put it on the hoist to check if I have an LSD or ATTESSA yet...

Got my Blitz panel filter last night, so plugs and air filter going in tomorrow before I head down to the local craft brewery to watch the taxi racing.

Yup, HICAS equipped models got LSD.

thus all ARXs have LSD. Any RS or AXIS with HICAS will have LSD. RX will never have one as HICAS wasnt an option.

PRTechnology (Porsche tune shop). They made up a jig for the dump/front pipe, so im guessing they will sell a few! I will keep you posted. :thumbsup:

Love it. Bends or no bends, it looks like a nice bit of gear. PM me the price?

So povo pack, and luxo barge models got one (with HICAS), but the best model didn't...?:wacko:

My ribs hurt... Craig might have to install my LSD...:ph34r:

In Other news- PNM35 travelled to Orange and back today - about 520kms 3 ppl, shit in the back. Did 10.4km/L on the screen, on track for about 750kms out of the tank- Bells line of road- so plenty of hills.

Much enjoyed Sway bar handling, but some of the bumps on the road hurt my ass- def time for a re-asphalt.

Nice. Will have to hurry up and get it on a hoist to check then.

In other news, car has a pretty loud turbo whistle that wasn't picked up during inspection. Was going to get it balanced, but the turbo guys have suggested it wouldn't be worth it, and go for a stage 2 or 3 rebuild instead. Stage 3 sounds like the way to go, but they won't do it until I've upgraded the fuel system and intercooler. Guys seemed to have a fair idea about M35s, a lot of what they said matched up to what I've read on here.

So guess I'll put up with it being noisy for a while until I've upgraded everythimg else. Just annoyed that I had the car inspected by people who were supposed to know the cars and they didn't even identify an obvious issue.

/end rant

did you buy from a dealer or private sale?

Stage 3 isnt a great option, Aaron has boost spike issues with his. I went stage 1 on mine. If you go too laggy you will need to run a high stall converter when you build the box.

There may be a better option soon if you want to run an off the shelf Garrett. :whistling:

Turbo whine is normal....just make sure you keep good oil up to it!

To go to a stage 3 setup you will need about $6,500 to get it working properly.....and that's before you touch the gearbox!....and that's also providing you do most of the work yourself!....on the bright you will be pushing close to 300AWKW's on BP!

and that provided if you want the turbo to only come on at 5k rpm

I bought it from a dealer, but other than that thr car seems mint, happy with it.

Put the air filter in and removed the inspection plate, seems to pull harder. Love driving the thing every time I go out!

had the car in for a tune today as did scott

i made 275KW atw with 800 nm of torque on pump 98

and then did a tune with the same power on e85, to make it safe.. with 900nm, when i get the box built ill do a proper tune on e85. oh yeh the box holds fine :)

preeettty happy. ill put up a sheet tomorrow of 98. didnt get an e85 one i dont think. :(

    • But I think you missed mine.. there is also nothing about the 98 spec that supports your claim..  according to the fuel standards, it can be identical to 95, just very slightly higher octane number. But the ulp vs pulp fuel regulations go show 95 (or 98), is not just 91 with some additives. any claim of ‘refined by the better refineries’ or ‘higher quality fuel’ is just hearsay.  I have never seen anything to back up such claims other than ‘my mate used to work for a fuel station’, or ‘drove a fuel delivery truck’, or ‘my mechanic says’.. the actual energy densities do slightly vary between the 3 grades of fuel, but the difference is very minor. That said, I am very happy to be proven wrong if anyone has some hard evidence..
    • Hey guys I’m chasing a Rb20det complete or bare block need a good running engine as mine has low comp 
    • You're making my point for me. 95 is not "premium". It is a "slightly higher octane" version of the basic 91 product. The premium product that they want people to buy (for all the venal corporate reasons of making more profit, and all the possibly specious reasons of it being a "better" fuel with nicer additive packages) is the 98 octane stuff. 95 is the classic middle child. No-one wants it. No-one cares about it. It is just there, occupying a space in the product hierarchy.
    • 98 and 95 have to meet the same national fuel standards beside the actual RON.  91 has lower standards (which are quite poor really), so 95 is certainly not 91 with some octane booster. It would be an easier argument to claim 98 is just 95 with some octane boosters. Also RON doesn't specify 'quality' in any sense, only the octane number.  Anything different retailers decide or not decide to add to their 95 or 98 is arbitrary and not defined by the RON figure.
