Contact Ben at Mal Wood. I had similar problems with my clutch after 5,000 k's....anything over 4500 rpm it would just seize up for about a minute due to the preasure plate.....solved it by putting in a Mal Wood stage II kit.

Who at Morpowa is doing the edits? Is it Simon or is Martin doing them there? Thanks <{POST_SNAPBACK}> For my car both of them did it because it was Morpowas 1st tune...haven't spoken to hime for a few days so not quite sure if they have done any this week. They will be at the Australian Motoring Expo next weekend.

If anyone is interested, Morpowa are now doing the Edit. My car was done on Thursday and more than happy with the result...255rwkw up from 240rwkw. Cheers Brad

I broke it After waiting 90 minutes to get on I launched it the same as I did 10 times at Heathcote the weekend before without drama...no wheelspin and bang diff goes bye bye. Wasn't fun seeing my car on a flatbed going home. I'll give credit where its due though. I rang Simon from Morpowa when it happened. He was out with his Mrs but organised a trade tow back to Morpowa and then met me there to open up so the car could be locked away...that's what I call service. Decision now is to go back to the standard diff or bite the bullet and spend $$$ to upgrade. Brad

I'll be out there...hope its a bit quiter than 5/2/05 .....there was a heap of cars that night. Hope the rain stays away...I want to see how the new clutch goes which Simon at Morpowa is putting in If you are out there...come up and say hello. Cheers Brad

Blew its gearbox today and was replaced midrace by the munroe.....why they have yank car for v8supercars is beyond me

Bruce I'll be there and wouldn't mind having a chat to you about your xtreme clutch if that OK. Was that you I passed on the SE Freeway near Mt Barker Sunday 2 weeks ago....I was travelling back from the FPV Open Day Brad

This is a DiFillipo system for an XR8

This is a DiFillipo system for an XR8

I have seen a Difillipo system and wasn't too impressed.....it was a shocker <{POST_SNAPBACK}> What didn't you like about it? The look, the sound or the performance?

This what you mean ? Brad

I think it was a LJ Torana or similar. Massive engine with massive slicks. Bloody loud too. Geea. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Craig I have one of your runs on Video if you are interested....going to transfer to PC tonight. Brad

I was hoping that you got it done in Brisbane. No probs, I'll just have to look around to see who does them up here. 233rwkw is a very nice number for an XR8. Will be interested to hear if she's loosened up any more. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> No worries good luck....hoping to go to the drags on 5/2/05 and she how it goes down the quarter. I'll let you know the results. Cheers Brad

Thanks for that Brad ... that sounds and looks soooo hot !!! Where about's did you get it done? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> No worries mate ..glad you liked. As I said the sound file doesn't do it justice as it sounds a lot better in real life. System was done in Adelaide at Morpowa. By the way...after the underdrive pullies went on I put it on the dyno and it showed 233rwkw. This was after 3000 k's and I am now up to 9000 so I was thinking of putting it back on to see if it has gone up. BUT rwkw may make you feel all warm and fuzzy but the real test is down 400m. Cheers Brad

Mate if you PM me your email address I will send you 2 sound files of 1.5mb each. I can also send you a little video also. Cheers Brad
