Its making about 300kw atm but it should be making more.... gonna change a few things, turn the boost up and hopefully get some more killerwasps.

Fkn love EC, cant wait to get out there again. Hopefully it isnt too long till they sort all this crap out and we can get out there again.

Ohh and since the last update I have also added a set of BC BR coilovers and some DBA Club spec slotted rotors and project mu pads. Makes a world of difference.

Also just ordered a set of Bride Vios III seats and rails which should be here anyday. Now all thats left for me is to put a cage in, swaybars, get more steering lock and then do some cosmetics.

Im thinking of doing a 34 GTR front end conversion and 33 GTR rear overfenders.

Yeah I thought they looked weird as well when I put them in but then I sat in them and they are perfect. The rails were made to sit the seats as low as possible...both the front and back of them are as low as you can get them before hitting the floor.. and it still feels a bit high. I've got clearance for my head with a helmet but I think I'm gonna struggle to fit the front legs on the cage and still have room for my head.

not much to update really.... went drifting on the weekend in 36 degree heat... had to do a cooldown lap every few laps to stop it overheating.

Was having a few dramas with the power steering overheating as well.

That said I was one of the few cars that was still drivable untill the end of the day.

Next few things to do are:

- Subframe mods (Solid flush bushes to raise it and welded reinforcements to make it stronger)

- Power steering cooler.

- Soon ill have to start the dreaded job of sound deadening removal in preparation for the cage.

Ill keep you guys updated as things happen...

      Another little story of weird shit happening

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      I'm thinking that this is such a small part of the problem that you could easily forego the vac pump and just achieve 90% of what you need, which is keeping the gate open when off boost. It's not as if there are not already techniques to keep a gate fully closed under boost. After all, you have boost. Just use a wastegate actuator that will allow you to apply the boost on the appropriate side, just like every external gate out there.

      Heres another fitment photo. redrilled the pattern to 5x112, and threw my audi´s rims on. had to touch the upper control arms with grinder, because the "sharp corner" was sticking about 2-3mm on the tire path. i have the "fender lip" mostly cut off, otherwise these (too) would contact with it. 20x9.5 ET25 rear    265/30 20x8.5 ET20 front    255/30 they are temporary, and look too big for the chassis. searching for 19s to it.

      At first I thought these were knock offs....

      Background: my BMW 225i hatchback (rebodied MINI/X1) came with 3x RE003 and 1x Goodyear Asymmetric something. The RE003 roared and slid around, the Goodyear side was quiet and grippy. Definitely my car was thrashed before it got sent to dealers. My brother also got RE003 all round on his old VA WRX STI, I wasn't impressed with them, car was loud so can't comment on noise. Anyway, Hankook stopped making/updating V12 Evo2. So bought S1 Evo3 runflats. Great daily duties tyre and not that harsh ride. Tyre reviews site/youtube rated them as best stopping in the rain and I believe them. Next set, Goodyear Asymmetric 5 non-RFT. It beat PS4 in tests and is like $100 cheaper, so put them on. Great tyre, more grip then S1 Evo3 but a tad noisier as expected, still rocking them. Next set I am looking to go runflats, probably the new Hankook Evo. Although the new Pirelli PZ5 did well in tyrereviews test. Or go Goodyear Asymmetric 6 which was top tyre last year. The V12 Evo2 on my gen5 Liberty GT wagon did great in cold condition (drove to snowy mountains for a day so my husky can feel his ancestor's roots). Super impressive performance for $120 each lol. Never skimp on tyres, brakes, suspension. There's old pics of my R31's crappy random brake pads bending in the caliper at Oran Park track day somewhere around here. Anyway, my 2 cents.
