Next step, we replace that front bar... :P What boost is it currently running at Rob?

10 on stock turbo.

Frontbar will be done along with bonnet

But next maybe exhaust get rid of those holes or replace the exhaust.

Today was a good day (Friday)

Drove to Grants got lost trying to find a atm, then got lost again trying to navigate the streets where grant lives.

That aside i now have a Apex Hybrid Return Flow intercooler

That looks like a rb20 fmic with a custom pipe to make it fit.

I have the exact same fmic but mine bolted straight up without that extra shiny pipe.

How much it set you back?

Well it was Rob Forbes' ex track car... and he did a hideous backyard respray of the front bar before sale, with what looks to be zero prep to the surface. Paint is chipping off like he didn't even wash it down before painting it.

Rest of the car isn't too bad... mainly just the bonnet and front bar.

    • Realised I never posted this , also I never got a price 
    • I'm glad to hear you've joined the SKI club. Spend the Kids Inheritance.
    • I have a VALCON if anyone wants it, I have no idea why you'd want to have VVT specifically broken out of the ECU as opposed to running it off the FCON/whatever standalone you have.
    • Hi Yes we're a bit optimistic we might get something out of sealing up the two pipes of the external wastegate and reactivating the stock one. I believe the orginal stock wastegate was tack welded shut. It doesn't budge and visually looks closed and sealed. The car has noticeably more lag so it could be at least part of the problem, maybe all. It's definately one of the key changes made since last tune. And it's one that's more difficult to fully understand and measure, not like for instance timing or cylinder compression.  Thanks for that feedback, we'll let you know how this progresses. Fingers crossed.   Regards Rob
