Mugabetown - Whoretownin' At It's Worst.


Recommended Posts

We have been pretty happy with the outlander thus far. No off roading yet tho.

Awaits 400 photos of the bogged outlander... Had an uncle try to take his on Fraser that was an interesting day lmao

Small "4wd's" are not for 4wding, most are incapable and just to Danm low

Unless you Usualy have lots of experiance with 4wding you can run into troubles

But I will say. Suzuki's they go hard off road

Anyways I have talked to ants about purchasing some parts and I have found a new direction for my car with the power side of things

This means forged bottom end :D

Interesting definition of 'real 4x4' you have :P

Low range, traction control, ladder frame chassis and same clearance as your navara. And at least it won't get stuck spinning diagonally opposite wheels in the air like yours will :P Edited by Bunta

Oh and stock it is on the low side, but nothing a cheap lift cant fix, and we are not into 'off road' where you go out and find places to get stuck and break shit, we just want a car that can do the fire trails ect.

I like where this is going :)

Morning folks.... Well events yesterday afternoon/night werent what I expected. Got a call from a mate at midday asking if I want to accompany him down to Matty @ Pits to get his car on the dyno just to check the replacement cam he got in is fine. I thought hell why not I finish work at 1:30pm it will be a good drive.

Got there at 3pm and and we got the car onto the dyno..

Matty played around with it for a while and fixed up a few things here and there. It came to about 6pm and was doing a few final power runs...

Knock Knock.......... who's there? Spun a bearing in the last 10 mins on dyno...

After many profanities were used Matty ended up dropping us at the train station and we got the train back to Sandgate then got a lift home....

Got home at about 10:30pm and then up again to start work at 5:30am...

Tired Scott is tired..

You went all the way down to see Matty Spry and didn't swing pass to say hi????

I also went to bed late paying for it now :/

Sorry to hear about your mates car Scottie.

What power did it make before she gave way?

    • It was roughly 3.5 hours.    car went in around 11:00 and I was done around 2:30 He did the initial runs, install the BC and then Nistune install and tune.  The best part was sitting in the lobby and hearing the skyline on full throttle at the dyno 😂😂
    • Glad it all went smooth. How long did the tuning process take?
    • Yeah that was kind of the same feedback my tuner gave me.  the boost tee is until I can sort out my plan for the electronic boost controller and what I’d get, where I’d mount the dash etc.  I’m happy with this until I can figure it out. Not a big fan of the A-pillar gauges. I’d like to get a clean install of the boost gauge - something digital like GFB.  Something like that might fit neatly where the ashtray is and look clean. I feel like replacing the OEM triple gauge is a bit extreme for a weekender like my skyline. And it’s not making crazy power to need all the additional sensors/gauges. 
    • I'm about to swap my box to Tremec T56 Magnum F & initially thinking of re-using my DCS twin plate (can get it re centred for the bigger spline) but it's been called out the box will be noisy (rattle) as the clutch is unsprung.  So I'm doing as much research as possible. I'm not so worried about holding the power as I'll go the track version which on paper will hold the maybe 1000hp I make. It's the longevity I worry about. DCS told me they don't use a sprung centre as it's just something that can break. The uni clutch has a very complicated sprung centre. Any one had or heard about any issues with it failing? Thanks in advance.
    • Auto is at least 10% (from my real, actual experience with different torque converters and manual on the same setup) ~185rwkw at 11.6psi (peak!) is entirely what one would expect without a FMIC or anything else on the intake, it does bleed off towards the higher RPM so it's what, 9psi there? Note: There is nothing that can be done about this with a manual boost tee. If you want to hold it steady and gain more top end, well - You will need electronic boost control.....
