Jez tried to start the tune on Friday and couldn't get the cam to move, lots of diagnostic work later we found the cam gear was jammed, a lot of problem solving we managed to work out what was causing it and got it working today (Tuesday). 

The tune has started and it's looking promising

Sweet ?

The 98 tune is done and he will be swapping to E85 today this is the sheet with 98 vcam off vs on, the difference in the bottom end is huge 

[r32-25t]

The e85 tune was done today and the result is exactly as I had hoped, I won't give the final number till the car and dyno sheet are in my hand but I will say at 4500rpm it's already making 250kw ?

Bets, take your bets on how long the box lasts. ?

[r32-25t]

This box will last forever ? It's not thrashed out like my ex box lol

[Piggaz]

One hard llama thrust and it's all over ?

Picked the car up today and all I can say is HOLY f**k. It's not even the number it makes it's how quickly it makes it. It has better response then my old -7 set up and just walks away. The only time the -7 set up matches it is when your foot is on the clutch stopped at idle

now for the future of this car, I'm done with chasing power!!! I'm over the moon with how it drives. So now I'll be just doing some general maintenance and improving things that may break. I will still be updating this thread as I go 

[Piggaz]

This comes under general maintenance I believe.

Looks like an excellent result!

Hmmmmm......how much is VCAM?

[r32-25t]

For the baby version by time you pay duties and etc is just under 5k from rhd and you need to make sure you have an ecu that can control it

Mrs gave me this for my birthday and we got it back from the framers today

when I had the car wheel aligned last time I was told those castor rods I had put in the car were rubbish and when I ordered the alternator I also ordered some Cusco carstor rods fitted them and had the car aligned again.

now I could have sworn I took a photo of them before and after installing them but I can't find the photos 

[r32-25t]

I knew I took a photo finally found it

[r32-25t]

Took it out to the roll racing last night and had an absolute blast, noticed oil on the ground and I’m going to need to find the cause of the leak

[r32-25t]

Had a bit of a look and only thing I could find was a rip in the gearstick seal

started by cutting the old one off and ordering a new one

[r32-25t]

New one arrived a few days later 

and slipped it onto the gearstick

dropped it into the box checked the fluid level and when I get around to it I’ll put the car back down give it a wash and take it for a drive
