Looks awesome. Well done and put together.

 

cheers mate

 

pix from our EvoNats at Wakefeild park raceway

Race seat for the track



fitted





the tow rig, not my car that is the boss's 4WD









vid at the motorkhana when the turbo died


found a restriction in the exhaust as I was swapping it over for a 3 inch cat back

The OEM flanges were welded onto the cat that was fitted, that is a 3 inch gasket





So I cut them off and got some 3inch pipe and flanges and welded them on







As posted in tech my turbo died at this event



Looking into the cause as I am told it was due to not enough airflow to the turbo

 

Turbo is off being fixed, new muffler fitted





K&N air filter fitted, had to do some customising to make it fit
bit tight here



all better





should be going again in a few weeks will be having a touch up tune done as well

 

before I put the recaro back in I decided to fix the squished bolster





took a trip to the local shop that sells foam and stuff, got a bit cut for 12 bux



little bit of time with a knife



all better

 

nice!!

 

that pistion does not look good , and i tought you said that your enginge was fully built?

 

that is the stock piston mate, hence my motor now being 'fully built', pretty sure if you read further on from that post you will see my motor upgrades.......


As per that quoted post of mine above the pic of the injectors :

 

turbo has been rebuilt by GTPumps here in australia, it now has the heavy duty thrust bearing

Dyno vid






sorry in KW but hp=KWx1.34 so 327.5x1.34=438.85hp

 

looks nice

 

cheers mate

so when I was putting the turbo back on I managed to strip the thread on one of the drain back bolts in the sump but didn't have time to fix it before the tune so today was the day.

Off to the auto store, 15 buck 3inch exhaust chrome tip, there are no exhaust shops open in beauy on sat and I didn't know what size pipe I need, which is 3 inch btw.

Just cut the pipe on one side and pull it apart a bit, don't forget to cut a recess for the oil pick up, which I did first time



that other welding is some stress cracks from the spotwelds that I welded ages ago.

Also welded on another nut for the oil return bolt



And I will now say that my car is scary fast

compared to before.... WOW it going to take some getting used to...

 

went to the drags, had major shifting issues, so here is my summary of tonight:

my first run I bogged off the line, missed 2nd and 4th ran 13.5 @ 107.46 2nd run more revs off the line massive wheel spin grabbed 2nd bogged down missed 4th again ran 12.09@118.61 3rd run mass wheelspin again missed 2nd and bogged when I grabbed 2nd missed bloody 4th again ran 13.08@117.02 it started to rain so we packed it up and went hom I got NFI why I couldn't get the gears..... =/ it pulled 34mph thru the top end in that 12.0 run tho =)

was up with my mate in his red 9

here are the vids in order, 3rd run I missed 2nd as well

andre wins I miss 2nd and 4th


I win, still miss 4th


3rd run against a falc turbo ute I miss 2nd and 4th... again......

 

changed the cable bushes, feels better already, just waiting on a new shifter cradle



Hrmmmmmm what have we here

 

Nice! Just did the cable bushings on mine as well! Cool easy mod that can be done in minutes and very worth it!

 

for sure, yesterday I did the shifter base ones as well and wow what a difference, so glad I did it very worth while mod to do.
