  1. Haha I would of figured it put if it was that simple. Obviously there is heaps of thread in head so neither side will go too far in head, stock bolts thread are much longer. The nut, when on the shorter side of the thread, leaves about 1 or 2 threada visible
  2. Which end goes into head?? (Exhaust manifold to head studs FG)
  3. Anyone know of any wheels that come in a 19x10.5 +42 other than hiros? Other than custom obviously.
  4. The front one is held on by screws from above, have to pull down roof lining to access. The middle one is held up by push clips, should pull down with a bit of force pulling from the back half of it (closest to the boot) from memory.
  5. Don't the smaller diameter rims have more problems on the inside clearance though? 18s and 295 would be nice
  6. Are they made to suit FG GUN808? I might be interested. I'd love to run somewhere between 285-305 on 18s or 19s
  7. I think he's referring to his interpretation on Matty's boost graph George. I see 17.5psi tapering to 16 lol
  8. For E85 to be safe you'll want the twin pump setup (assuming you've chosen external surge option), fuel reg, fuel rail and all teflon/ethanol compatible fuel lines. Also best to upgrade the intank aswell if you haven't already. As for the oil pump, you can either purchase a complete race oil pump or buy the oil pump gears and modify the stock pump housing. BTW I think you're posting in the wrong section.
  9. I've done PW3 cooler + plaz stage 3 piping in the past. Just needs different silicon joiners to the end tanks.
  10. Will still kick down in manual but only if you're in the wrong gear for the speed. Just have to learn which gear you need to be in. Wish we could tune them to be completely manual.
  11. If you use auto the kick down will break the input shaft. Using tiptronic avoids this.
  12. What needs to be modified about the dump to fit a gen2 6466 to an FG? Obviously block off water lines but that's easy.
  13. Why would it need to sync if it's all the same parts? Attempted coloumn - farkin chooped plug off coloumn loom to make it easier replacing guages lol. Plugged in the two connections to the barrel on my coloumn whilst other steering wheel still in car and still error starting with old key
  14. Is there any FG electrical gurus here? I've swapped a ZF trans (inc TCM), ECU, ICC, BEM and Cluster from a 2010 FG xr6t wreck into a 2008 (same options prem sound etc) and I'm still getting ICC security code error and immobilized (P1000 (obd systems not complete), P1260 (theft detected), U1146 (Unknown)). Thanks alot in advance!
  15. Saw something about someone who heard from someone who was told by a dealer somewhere that there was only going to be 1200 made due to only using up the remainder of the engine/driveline stock
  16. My stage 2 from CMS was around 5k installed with new solenoids. Not sure if prices have changed over the past 12 months.
  17. The green one is just a support wire Lennox, always chop it off. Whatever you do, DO NOT attach it to any metal frame.
  18. Don't get caught up on ghz either, even when they are clocked at 5 they won't perform as well as intel for what you want. I don't have an SSD and have no issue but as Az said, it will load into the game a lot faster with one, but won't affect actual game performance. Also agree with 120hz monitor but not worth it unless you have a system capable of maintaining 120fps even at 100% load. I managed to pick up a AMD 7990 6GB video card when building mine, they were running them out for $600 when rrp is like 1200. It's a monster, I pelt out 160-200fps. Although my problem is I get caught up building the biggest and the best then only use it for a week before I remeber I don't have time to use it lol. Gathering dust atm. Unfortunately even with all these parts none of us will ever be as good as Az lol.
  19. Haha yeah anything will be better than a console. I'd be choosing an intel i5/i7 over the amd (don't be fooled by the 8 cores). 16gb would be a lot better, ram isn't that expensive. If money allows grab at least a nvidia 770. (Assuming that's still the current series, pc gear gets outdated so fast)
  20. Pretty sure there is an allan key adjustment near the top of the headlight in the engine bay - can anyone confirm?
  21. Yes but not on max settings. How anal are you about max settings and frames per second?
  22. Haha yeah good times. I should plug the PC back in at some point I'm hanging out for "Project Cars" in November. Rebuilding my car is taking all my time atm and the time I am at home the boss throws a tantrum if I do my own thing haha. Do you still go on BF4 with no more progression to gain?
