  2. Happy Birthday TXR05!

  3. For maybe 4 weeks now I've noticed that the rear end shudders ( like axel tramp ) on normal take off only in first gear. It'll have it's little wobble/shudder if I idle in first and take off from 1000RPM. I know my shocks are worn and need replacing, but don't want to replace them to not fix the problem and have to pull the rear end apart again. Sitting on bump stops its that sagged. The Diff bush has been replaced 50,000KM with superpro comfort and that still looks fine. There is nothing obvious under the car bush wise that has failed. I'm thinking it's the suspension or maybe one the 2 outter diff bushes? The issues have been showing up since I shattered the main diff bush bolt on a hard change into second with hot tyres. A second opinion would be fantastic! Thanks forum!
  4. The booster I ended up buying was off an xr8. I never used it, so It's for sale if anyone wants it. The issue (which I still have) is my front left caliper is sticky. I just pump the brake at lights and it unsticks. ( never sticks hard, just enough for me to notice something wasn't right. )
  5. Yes yes. Rod was my concern. Not compression. I searched for half an hour to find my answer to no avail.
  6. Yeah, seems I'm wrong. LPG are the same thickness as f6 but no floating gudgeon pins. They're pressed apparently. I always though BAmkii had LPG rods and f6 got thicker again.
  7. As title says. My belief is BA xr6 turbo rods were sh*t BA MKii got the LPG rods BF >06/06 got the f6 rods. Someone is telling me that all xr6 <06/06 have the EXACT same rods including NA. LPG and >06/06 xr6 for the f6 rods Someone want to clear this up for me please If that's the case I can buy a LPG motor cheap, use the bottom end and have 400KW instead of limited to 300 on my MKii?
  8. My tuner gave me a readout in KW and in HP, that's in QLD. What's the big deal having it in HP? Wish I could get 510HP on 14PSI... that's 108 more HP than I have, and I run 14PSI on mostly stock timing ( say's the tuner, though I don't know what stock timing runs at, timing peaks at 5 - 8 deg depending on heat )
  9. I've had my car dosing for a good 80,000KM have not had an issue. What you're worried about it True compressor surge. ( dosing while under load and boost ) But having no load on the turbo while it does it causes mostly no issue. The worst it can do it slow the turbo a little more than a BOV would, so it takes a little longer to come back onto boost. Your turbo does not spin backwards. It does not bend the fins. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nCj6Spwl1CU
  10. Just an update I guess. After randomly losing 80 - 100 RWHP for no apparent reason, had my tune updated to the Xcal 3 and flashed by Real dyno, to pull 402.3hp ( 300RWKW ) on 14 PSI. Only thing they could tell me as to why I lost so much power was there was a fault with my timing and there was non being put into the engine. They don't know why, and neither did Elite Automotive. So at least I still have most of my power back now. Really want 400RWKW, but can't on my BA motor.
  11. I had the same problem dealt with it for 2 years. Replaced my TPS sensor with the BF ( rectangle NOT the triangle one ) as mine failed and put the car into limp mode a few times. It's been 100% fine after the replacement. No stalling, no low idle, throttle response was back. Was a very happy upgrade. Also cleaned the Throttle body with contact cleaner, and all plugs. So it was one or the other. Either way, it's fixed now.
  12. Warning light doesn't come on at all. I think it's because I'm using a different oil than what I normally use ( trying HPR10 ) It's normal when it's cold and just come up to temp, but gets a bit lower than normal after some stop start and the oil heats up. If not, guess I'll start looking at the oil pump and some new gears.
  13. So what could the issue be? Crappy autometer electric oil pressure gauge? go back to using 15w60 ?
  14. Little bit worried as to why my oil pressure has dropped from 50psi while driving normal, down to 35PSI and from 20 PSI at idle down to 15 PSI. Goes to about 45 PSI about 3000RPM, But it's never been like that before. Suggestions? Clean the oil filter mesh thing ( someone point me to the right topic to see how it's done )? Oil is HPR10 10w50 about 4,000 KM old.
  15. Happy Birthday TXR05!
