A week under my car on my back in the cold, and its only just finished. Give me a while to rest please. :)

You would have to buy the turbo, leave your car with me for a week or two and leave a big wad of notes when you pick it up. The result is amazing though. I need to plumb the screamer back in soon, it hits boost too quick to catch the gate sometimes. Its a matter of time before someone hears. :whistling:

Im not removing all my gear, I just installed it... :nyaanyaa:

To make a jig for the exhaust (dump/front pipe) I would need a lot more space than I have available. You saw the state of my little workshop. Perhaps you should wait until I upgrade. lol.

gahhhhhh i call dibs on your used setup...again..!

Its a pleasure to drive, the large housing really improves the low end and gives a more gradual rise in power, like a V8. Its running rich as at the moment so its going to make a few kw thats for sure.

As im running the exhaust temp sensor before the turbo now I can lean out the fuel at cruise, its running 17:1 at the moment no problem, only seeing 650 degrees. It does feel a bit doughy with less bang from the mix but if I get Cihan to tune it a little richer just above cruise it should feel perfect.

Thanks. I cant wait for the tune. :thumbsup:

Anyone have an F-con V pro laying around?

No, but you can get this one :)

:rofl: I assume all of you kids rang them? Hopeless, the lot of ya :P How much did they end up wanting for it? Was it the 'FIrst edition' of the Fcon V Pro?

Nah, but I did send an email.

Very early Fcon V pro which does not have the option of VQ25det.

Good for R33 GTR though.

Oh, and the price magically changed from $550 to $1000.... lol

Ah cool. Good to know. I take it theres no option to upgrade the firmware on the units?

    • Yep it's an r34. Usually people remove struts without removing the front upper control arm (fuca is what i assume this is?) So not sure why mine wouldn't fit. I know on my other car I did a similar job and it wouldn't fit until I removes the ball joint nut even though I didn't remove it prior.   The upper arm doesn't seem to be in the way (the part that's bolted to the chassis. The part that's bolted onto the j arm I'll check that out though.   I was going to compress the spring and put it in with the compressor attached but not sure if it will work  Haven't seen anyone do it.
    • I have a small lip on the boot of the E90 and I've been toying with the idea of trying to mould it in to the boot to remove the gaps. I guess shaving the seams? No idea what the terminology is here.  What I'm wondering is, if it's current double sided taped down, what would I do to more permanently attach it so it makes a good base for the filler? It only has edges so no way to bolt it down unless I add some braces. I've done a lot of fibre glassing in my time so that's nice and easy but I'm not sure what my options are here.  Sorry, this is the best pic I have and I'm 4 million ks from home ATM.  
    • Based on this comment I went googling. A052's in the sizes I want are certainly not cheap, but I couldn't find anything in the V70A anywhere. How much do they run/where do they get sourced from? From what I know (nothing but internet searches and reviews etc) the R888 has pretty much fallen off from anyone's actual use, and the AO52 is the king of "road legal" rubber. Nobody is driving around on their daily for Z221, AO050, DZ03G. At that point, for purely track only tyres - Why not buy actual slicks? Why does nobody actually do that anyway?
    • This an R34? It shouldn't matter though - it should be the same as on any of the others, and by "any of the others" I mean R32, because that is the car that I have had the front end apart on about 50 times this year. Sometimes, it is much easier to get the lower shock eye onto that pin when: a) you have the upper shock nuts backed off a few turns so you can wiggle it a bit more freely. When they are tight the bottom of the strut is much harder to move that _leeeetle_ bit you might need it to to win the fight. b) you have the outer bolt(s) from the FUCA out and so you can move the lower pin around freely too. Then, all you have to do is put the upper arm back on when you've got the rest back together, and this is where jacking under the balljoint can help.
    • One question before I make a bigger mess potentially, do I need to undo the nut on the outer ball joint?
