  1. quite a contrast of info here now... Mexican B, dynos aside, I too get massive wheel spin when boost kicks in even starting in 2nd (it's an Auto) and that's after a burnout or two and 30psi in the OEMs...what's wrong ith these damn dunlops?? Never heard of the "Accelara". Who makes them and does ayone else recommend them ?
  2. thank for the advice guys, did some research.. 1/ I called Rocket and they said the MTs are NOT street legal inSW 2/ I called the RTA and the "techniciain" said they are fine as long as there is sufficient tread depth and they are the appropriate tyre for the rim (go figure??) 3/ I like the sound of the NT05's. Read some reviews and they get a good rap. 4/ thanks sideways82 and Tobey..spoke to Mick at Taleb and he will do the NT05's at $250 a corner (in 245 40 18) gonna sleep on it and do a little more checking tomorrow.
  3. Hi Guys, Looking for a solution to traction issuses on my FGT sedan and wondering if these were legal in NSW. Also does anyone know if I could fit a pair of 265 40 18 's on the rear of my stock 18 x 8 rims or should I stick with the 245 40 18 ? Also what is your choice for better traction? Not really interestind in cornering ability, lifespan or wet conditions. cheers for any info pic of tyre I'm interested in...
  4. thanks fellas, didn't touch the exhaust at all
  5. Hi Guys, Had my car modded by Jim and Tony from Tunehouse Racing last week and first I'd like to say what an professional lot these guys are. Very knowledgeable and friendly and their workshop is second to none. My car is a white 2011 FG sedan (6sp auto) with only 1100 k's on the clock. It felt great stock but I thought what the hell, lets see how it goes with the Tunehouse "spec S" kit. Oh gosh, what a difference, sounds and goes like a god damn aeroplane now. After the boys went right through the car to check for any warranty issues (none thankfully), the car was fitted with; - THR XCal Interface - THR Hi Flow injectors - K & N air filter + air box mod - THR custom Dyno Tune After Jim weaving his magic on the Dyno, an amazing 308.95rwKw (363Kw at motor) and 730Nm was acheived with these rather minimal mods. They re-torqued the suspension which helped alot with traction and boy she really does lift off now. Video of car on dyno and pics below.......See ya's out there! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rubhz041Src
  6. Hi Guys, Traded up from a 2003 BA XT to a new 2011 XR6T a few weeks ago (sensational!!). But one thing I can't figure out is why each time I re-start the car, the ipod goes to the beginning of the playlist. If it's turned off for an hour or so it continues on from where the last song was when the car was turned off, which is what I want. However any longer like overnight for some reason it goes back to the the first song (in my case Accuracy -The Cure). I've turned shuffle off on the ipod but the ICC seems to turn it back on when I press random. I want it to pick up from where it stopped all the time, and not return to the beginning. Any ideas or help would be much appreciated. Hope you understand what I'm saying and BTW...here is some pics of the car...
