Panel & paint all done ! 

[IMACUL8]

Love it Damian - any more pics - any engine bay?

Still has the Holinger?

 

[hattori hanzo]

yup still holinger, as an update set up the closed loop shift cut with help from Simon R and it is now proper quick, also had the tune touched up by WA Racing developments, ended up trapping 146mph at the plex and spun up 800 on the WARDs dyno. Had a 4wd issue again (this has been ongoing for the entire time I have owned the car) so trying a new workshop. I don't live in Australia thats why updates are few and far between. 

 

Didn't take many shots of the engine just tidied it up, went all black on the covers. 

 

Will look at either a titanium or blacked out catch can in future.

Well I figure its time for an update, bit been happening in the last few years.

First of all, wrap was removed to display the 50 shades in all its glory



Stripped back and painted by PanelHaus in Canningvale, really happy with the job and he was more than happy to tidy up a few bits and pieces. However it took a while, I should have never told him I was living overseas at the time.

after all that it ended up looking like this

Shortly after that I went my separate ways with the previous performance workshop who worked on the car, I had a few key issues which had been haunting the car since its completion which they were unable to resolve, so I figured it’s time for a new set of eyes.

There has been an abundance of work to get the car back up to spec of where I want it performance wise, and it has been a hell of a journey which I probably have forgotten most of, but the key items:
• 4wd now works
• Rebuilt the 6466 turbo
• An extensive list of maintenance and safety items.
• Refitting of seat to have me actually sitting in the centre and not skewed
• Extended the steering wheel towards myself a touch
• Rebuilt the holinger – basically I smoked 5th gear it was previously set on a timer to reapply power as opposed to closed loop shift cut.
• Sika stepped up and Sponsored my head build

Went from 579kw to 614kw by cutting the restriction out of the HKS hi power silent – at this point Rob Turner ran a 9.6 @ 146mph in it to verify the power and 4wd operation – see graph below it is pretty impressive how the trimmy boi changed the power so significantly

After that test went all out on a 4” turbo back exhaust done by Dom @ Prestige exhaust. He was fantastic to deal wit to replace the 3” pea shooter.

power increase was not as great however it was on an absolute stinker of a day in feb, Rob complained his icecream melted while he was tuning it. Would it have gone more on a nicer day, unsure but we will wait for the next round of power mods before bothering to dyno it again.

The cool thing on that day is 1320 video popped past in preparation of racewars coverage and I got a slightly larger E Peen
Racewars as unfortunate as it was to miss the Sunday of racing was a great success, did my last standing K KPH in the 800s and came 2nd in ET to Eddie who has a hell of a car. We did have a few more PSI to punch in for the 1k run but that’s life.

Onto the good stuff

As I am back in Perth a bit more these days, I have been using the car as intended.

Got two sessions in at Barbs on AD08’s getting my best time down to a 65.1 LT.

So stepped it up and bought some R Comps Z221’s and have got the best time down to 62.4, all throught racechrono with a gps expander on it.

Below compares my time (light blue) against one of Simons 59’s. I am 0.5 off in sector 2 and 3 and a touch more in sector 1, mainly looks like I am a bit soft through the essess (explanation below)


Also got some laps in at RAC, it was reverse circuit with a chicane.

And some Sunday morning early morning hills run’s with the lads





So the 62’s at barbs was on gate pressure around 650whp, the brakes lasted ¾ of one good quick lap before the peddle being a bit shit and the weight transition through the essess felt the car was launching towards the outer wall. It was at that point in time i recalled we had make do coil overs in the car (basic teins with pretty mediocre spring rates) and the pads were not as good as they could be. With the AP’s getting on in life the following was ordered
• Alcon 6 pot front and 4 pot rears, 365mm discs
• MCA Reds

Now down to 60.7 Long Track at Barbs and 57.6 at RAC Reverse circuit. Overlay comparing my time to Simons 59 around barbs

shame to pull the engine this month, but its a good baseline, engine is being pulled for the following:

> has a stock diff, so going with a quaife

> Head keeps popping shims, so going a shimless setup with a cnc port by RAMS

> Re Ring and Rebearing while everything is out

> Nismo plenum / HKS Intercooler into the bin and a plasmaman Intake Manifold and Intercooler setup installed.

Cheers!

No idea to be honest, i t was done by my previous workshop who i am no longer on talking terms with.

 

I was working overseas at the time and some things just appeared on the car. We actually thought it would be a restriction, however it has worked out pretty well, minimal gain when taking it off when doing runs on the dyno.

286.24kph / 17.511seconds to do the standing 1km at Racwars Albany 2020 

 

The car is setup to be at the pointy end of the field, and is a genuine no expense spared in the maintenance of it to keep it there. 

 

I have been interstate working since Q3 2022 so the car has not been tracked since and it just sits in the shed for the foreeseeable since its rebuild (front diff let go, so did bearings and an update while engine was out) and driven a total of 20km on the street since.  

With a little effort this can be taken from a capable track car to a well sorted street car new seats and tidy up the side skirt paint would keep it fresh or get out on the track and dominate.

 

Bad points – paint has been sand blasted on the side skirts, as per pics

Drivers seat has a slight tear in it

few pics as it sits today
