hi there

i have to tell you, my mods are very similar.

n1 engine(as the engine was blown when bought the car)

autronic & autronic cdi

4" gonzo exhaust ( not to loud)

ppg 5 speed dog box ( this only went in a few weeks ago, as original box finally

let go, 11.1 done on standard box)

hks cams

bosch pump & larger injectors (think 770cc??)

fuel rail & reg

23 psi

tomei baffles

tomei metal gaskets

koyo radiator and thermos (week ago)

6 piston ap's 365mm rotors(2 weeks ago)

18" r34 wheels

hicas lock

recaro drivers seat & rails

interesting to note i actually went quicker when we dropped the power down,

back around 320rwkw as 60 foot was quicker than we had been achieving,

it was just easier to get off the line without wheel spin. the car has run through at 130 mph( but slower 60ft).

i think the new gearbox would get a 11 flat or very high ten, it is lightening

fast on gear changes now.

my car is being setup for circuit and sprints also, thats what makes them so good

great on the strip or circuit, or street.

hope to see you round some time.

cheers russ

yeah russ, thanks for that info i appreciate it.

im hoping for mine to be set up for ciruit and sprints also, with a few drags thrown in for fun! :P

cant wait for mine to land here.

Show me a better value for performance, handling, 4WD, track, curcuit, drag, street car out there and I'II buy it......

EVO's, and WRX's. Just cause they are 4WD doesnt make them all that... Reliability plays a big part in it. The most comonly destroyed RB engine is the 26 due to poor design from the factory.

Im not biased, i do own one, and from an owners point, i still say they are over rated, from driving instructers, and from mechanics they will all tell you the same thing.

Must admit I do have a thing for EVO's & WRX's. They are the only other cars that I like.

I guess the GTR, I believe has more potential when all factory problems are addressed.

I do agree that the RB 26 has some design faults that should have been adressed from factory.

    • There's a difference between "selling" a product to someone (which, if you walked into a workshop or bricks and mortar store and bought and walked out with it, is just the act of buying and selling) and rolling your buggy into a workshop and having them fit non-roadworthy stuff to the car. And for the latter, let's ignore any potential legal loophole arguments that the armchair lawyer might want to make to differentiate between supplying your own parts to be fit by the workshop or getting the shop to supply and fit. The workshops that have been dealt with in the US for this are in the latter category. It would be near impossible to try to charge/attack/criminalise a shop for selling "for off road use only" parts to someone unless those things were intrinsically illegal in their own right, or had other legislation wrapped around them, such as there is for guns, pharmaceuticals, etc. Well, no. And you knew your argument was silly when you made it. And there is. it might be somewhat harder in Vic, but then that's the price you pay for electing the long list of (unts that you have to run the whole shit hole**. But otherwise, you can put an aftermarket or otherwise tunable ECU into a car and get it run through the whole shebang of emissions testing as part of an engineering cert and, so long as the tune is "locked" afterwards, then that modification is on the list that is approved on the cert. But....it is an expensive process. ** Of course, the (unts who make up a large proportion of the population that eternally try to get around the rules are also a part of the problem and the reason that you end up with draconian rules in the first place. By contrast, SA was founded and the government and civil service set up and run by very sensible types (largely German) who set up good structures that enabled a lighter touch of government on the somewhat better behaved population. it is only more recently that we have followed the rest of Australia down the criminal drainhole of penal colony behaviour and now we have to catch up with mobile phone cameras and so on.  
    • Not specifically the revamp Toyos. In the past I've used Nitto NT01s, which were essentially the same compound as R888 with a different pattern (that's what the internetz said, so just be facts). I did like the NT01, progressive fade, didn't go from grip to 0 grip in a split second. If you look at the serious street/track guys, most are either on Cup 2, A052, A050, AD09, CR-S or AR-1.  
    • I have one of these! It is absolutely useless. It provides not nearly enough force on the bolt, it just slips over anything that is not finger tight. And if it's finger tight, you can use your fingers.
    • You have to take photos of the car in Victoria with a timestamp. So if you have big aftermarket turbo in your engine bay, your car is simply not getting a RWC and you'll be doing a lot of returning to stock, and re-modding after about 90 days (because cars that have had a RWC can be audited after the fact). The law I'm kinda ambivalent about. I can see the logic and the writing on the wall, Cobb etc would be well known for selling to 'wink wink off the street usage' but in the real world everyone knows what they do and where they end up. It'd be like someone selling guns in Australia but "only to people who have a proper licence" but selling them outside of Bunnings instead of sausages to anybody. Like RWC's, and VASS's and EPA, this is enforcement of the actual existing rules. I haven't looked into it but there (should) be a way for people to legally pass their tuned car to be within the rules if they can prove they pass emissions laws that are applicable. If there's not then that's another story.
    • Interesting post(haven't watched the vid). I'm surprised companies can be fined for selling products that are specifically meant for certain applications.  How can you force a customer to use or apply your products in 100% the way intended? People have been misusing products since they were invented. Heck, I ate dessert last night with a soup spoon. Does that mean the spoon manufacturer could be fined? And what of the customers who actually want to use the product for its intended use?   I'm sure we could discuss and debate this for a while, but this is an introduction thread and I dont mean to take over it.
