 Been driving around with the lights and the light output is amazing i must say.

This is the light output vs new jeep stock xennons. It also is much better than my Evo X Xennons. You can also change the bulbs to Phillips ones which again will be much better:

Just an update decided to fix my airbox restriction issue, last time i was on Trent's dyno it was ~10rwkw restriction on the stock airbox.

Bought a 4 inch wide Pod and adaptor.

Got JDM Garage Melbourne to fit it up and do a custom airbox whilst retaining the snorkel and stock look due to VIC Police defects.

So one night decided to put the car on the roller dynos for fun.

Found out the car was leaning out due to the new airbox. Was also running out of fuel and couldnt lower the boost as the actuator was a 19 or 20psi one and was running at minimum boost.

So now got duel walbro fuel pumps and a Link G4 ecu. Need to get a new BOV as the current one is leaking.

 

Car still runs on the 5 year old bush bearing Hypergear ATR45 internally wastegaated stock position. E85.

 

Before the airbox it was ~360rwkw on a roller dyno and ~380rwkw on a hub. (racepace and trents dyno)

So about +60rwkw.

Just had a look through this thread, amazing stuff! I was wondering is that JDl Kit still available somewhere around here? I would love to get my hands on it.

Not sure sorry i imported from UK and pretty sure they stopped after my one as shipping was too much

Cheers, man. Yeah I have looked around and there is some places that sell it but the price is pretty high and I would have to get it piece by piece (bonnet here, bumper there etc.)

Get some black krinkle HTP on that airbox, it will look less "fabbed".

Well, in my mind anyway.

Hell, my old girl looked stock.....  :)

UNIGROUP built  it for me years ago, made a lazy 500hp.

 

It did have its issues, eating OEM manual gearboxes was one of them

    • Hi all   what short shifter do you use on your skykine r34?   my synchronous does have a problem and i was getting huge delay and grinding sound between 2nd and 3rd, did put shockproof red heavy stuff and it is great now/ no issues   would in your view short shifter screw this up?   people seems to suggest/ use cube short shifter and there is standard and premium. Seen review of premium as much better and less play. Thoughts?
    • Yeah, there's a bit of a density and friability difference between pebbles and any of those other things. Silicone will definitely float in oil and so will be mobile enough to move around. Although, again, if it is upstream of the filter it really shouldn't go any further. I would only ever worry about silicone when it is in places downstream of the filter. Upstream of the pickup is a whole 'nother matter. We've all seen what that does. I have seen the most abominable crap settled out in industrial gearboxes, trunnion lube systems and the like, without any sign that any of it has touched anything in the machine. Just chilling in the bottom, waiting for the inevitable operator error that causes the whole machine to need to be dismantled for repairs.
    • I have seen enough fire and brimstone from TSBs about roloc disks causing spun bearings that foreign object contamination is top of mind for me. For sufficiently large particles you might be right but usually it’s a distribution of debris and some of the larger particles can also break down and shed bits. If local shops report RTV contamination in a turbo is enough to wreck them I’m taking zero chances if I can help it.
