Well I gave Tex the noisy old ba***rd the flick , got sick of the rattles and squeeks . Got an xtreme organic with a chromoly fly wheel . Much nicer to drive now .

JC I know the roads you mention only too well . Lived in Mandurah up untill about 9 years ago and have family in Muchae . Anyway My BF 6 speed manual is also heavy on juice and has 324.7 at the back wheels . Drove from Adelaide to Melbourne for the FPV open day in March with an XR8 (FG) . XR6 (N/A) , F6 (BF) (mid 300 rwkw) and a Devil R . No matter what we were doing mine was always well above all the rest other than the N/A XR6 as he had the club trailer on . I can get high 9 to 10 on the open road and 14 to 15 in the city . Yours at 20 sounds a bit high but that can depend on how heavy your foot is . A good tuner can lean the car out for you but dont go too far as you can harm the motor . This is the price you pay to feed the need for more power (its great fun) . I have the Pole possition tripod and have no issues with it . With your engine management light on I would guess that the 2nd O2 sensor has not been switched off . You are correct a good engine tuner will switch this off , should be done once you start playing with bigger boost as I understand it . Otherwise the light just keeps on comming on . Get a mechanic with a camera to look at your cat , with the higher power the factory ones melt on the rear side generally . You may find this is the issue with your ecconomy . When mine was being retuned the last time we got 327 at the rear then couldnt get over 190 . On opening the cat up we had melted it to a solid mass . Exhaust now fixed and boost fine tuned to give a great strong even curve that makes tyres wear extreemly fast (not ripping skids I might add)

MAkes it easier to get under the cars to work on them .

Just a gigolo

Count me in at this stage . The other club also has a run on that day but not sure of times .

Youll have to do something about her shedding liquid kilos all over the pavement first . Then KG rate would be very negotiable . I found some HOOTERS - someone got more than thier fair share .

Turbo jet dont take her near the sea this week I am sure the Japaneze whaling fleet are in our waters .

Good to see its getting sorted , ins work does take for eva to get right . I've tried calling you a few times to see how all went but you dont answer your mobile . Catch up with ya some time .

you may also have your ass handed to you when the cops defect you making your rotors useless!! not to mention, that's the WORST combination of wheels/colour ive seen to date. ________________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________ I suppose yours are pink . Get ya hand off it . H.G.F.S.

I did get some special "mates rates" but I bought RDA plain (premium) rotors for $70 a corner and each rotor cost $30 to be machined . If you do some homework locally you may find someone will have similar prices .

My guess is you have plain rotors with the standard brakes . The high speed shuddering comes from the gasses escaping from the brake pads and being trapped between the pad and rotor . Have your rotors slotted or buy new slotted ones and you should find the issue goes away . Mine did . See pick on painted calipers thread , I had XR milled into rotors (has the same effect as slotting) .
