LOL just saw this, to clear a few things up -

Just cost me $800 for the flash tuner and $600 for the tune

No retardation of timing, no pulley, no exhaust, no e85, no intercooler, no injectors, no aftermarket boost controllers or anything like that just a tune and K&N air filter replacement. Standard the blower bleeds out boost after hitting 4 PSI on the tune (for the GS) much like a turbo wastegate, the tune basically stops that from happening, increased to 9PSI and made another 120rwkw on a very low reading dyno (made 250 stock compared to 286 on chasers dyno) would see over 400 on some other dynos for sure..

Duno why people are so surprised there's more cars out there than skylines, and before haters start hating I've owned 3 of them before this.. I mean it's no GTR through the corners but definitely better than I thought it would be through the hills. It's a daily to / from work car and I love it. End of the day I was never tracking my GTR and just getting cop hassles

Here's a video to show what a tune does

I know what some guys here are saying that's it's a charged 5 liter etc. I still think that's a very high amount of power for basically a stock car, given mods. I'm no ford fan by any means far from it but I give credit where it's due. Know a guy who's dad ownes a 5.5 liter charged e55 Amg with a tune or chip and it didn't get anywhere near the gains like this. Iv read a about people charging v8's and it wasn't as simple as bolt on, tune and result in close to 400kw. I think it's bloody impressive, good on you mate.

This...

It's an awesome amount of power and a very cheap increase, but it's very conservative from factory. By blown 5 litre standards 370rwkw isn't huge. And comparing them to modifying engines with half the displacement is as retarded as Aaron's timeshare insurance idea.

Hahaha it wasn't my idea and I didn't compare u fag

haha cheers mate, its definitely fun !! :D

And you are comparing a $40-50k car with a $15-20k car.

Which one is going to loose you the least money when you go to sell?!?! Sure the blue oval isn't going to command anything more than $15k in 3 years time.

Pointless comparison

:)

Rain is good for a waxed car...it washes most dirt off and doesn't stick to the car itself, attracting dust and then drying to make it dirtier...ala an unwaxed car.

1. Paint protection

2. Stays cleaner for longer

3. Easier to wash

"Long story short, i sold my EG with rwc. now the buyer calls me 5 days after saying the wipers are broken and not his fault etc, that i sold the car to him in an unroadworthy condition... the workshop passed rwc so clearly it was working then. and it was working as i drove the car for 2 weeks AFTER getting rwc up until buyer picked up the car

what can i do about this? its f*kn bullshit. do i have to prove it was working when he picked up the car and that it broke in his possession?""

^^

Doesn't need to be transferred either, as long as the Vic roads transfer papers are signed, it doesn't matter, if the car hasn't been transferred after two weeks the seller can actually go in and transfer it themselves

    • I totally couldn't do the whole kids taking up my life thing! 😮 I find it bad enough doing 45 hours in 4 days, and then fitting normal adulting life into the other 3 with no kids! As for my mates race cars, they're AMG C63 setup for production racing. The original is what has just been stripped and a brand new shell built. The original is then going away to have some panels straightened, then it will be put back together again. Then there's a third that will shortly head off to have a roll cage put in, then build it up too. And potentially a fourth to be built too... Oh, and he has two Renault Clio D class production cars, ha ha. And when he's not racing them in the Australians and QLD production championships, he's been racing one of Chaz Mostert's Lamborghini's in GT4. They just won GT4 at the 12 hour in the Lambo. We're pushing to finish the new AMG as it has its first round (and potentially its first shakedown/outing) in under w weeks for Round one of QPC, and that round is really the shakedown to make sure it's all good for the Bathurst 6 hour, which I'll be at too. Ha ha ha Working on my project is different to his, I slowly tinker and work ways to make things happen on a shoe string budget. Hes in a good position that he has a massive workshop full of parts and tools, ha ha. He also looks after me. When his air compressor died, he just needed it working, so bought himself a new one and gave the old to me. Sand blaster unit too, and a 20t pressing. And pretty much all the shelving in my shed too as he upgraded all of his (the stuff he gave me is the expensive black Bunnings heavy duty stuff)!   I enjoy working on his stuff. No decision paralysis, and anything that's needed parts wise is just there. Plus, then I get to be hands on at the track in real racing, not just club day stuff.
    • I know which one I'd prefer to have in my garage, and which one I'd actually drive as intended
    • Yeah mate, no probs. Just swap the email addresses?
    • I definitely agree with you there - I never click on content for cars I would never ever be able to get or compete with/against/be seen next to. Seeing a MX5 compete with a FD RX7 will make people upset though, for sure. Even in 2.5L Turbo form which is pretty grass roots. (or at least as grass roots as classic cars can be) Yes we're all classic car owners now.
    • Wonder what the cause is, but here's hoping it's nothing too serious.
