  1. Hehe - starting to get butterflies - first time in years to the strip and the weather looks ok here (Frankston) - hows it looking over the other side?
  2. Ok - stupid question time: If the weather remains decent and I do make my way to Calder tonight - is a helmet required to run? (been over 20 years since I headed to the drag track)
  3. So car was stock and you did all those changes and now need to get it to a shop to get a tune put in? I'm tipping that the trailer is the best bet here - even just one of those mods (after the intake side of things) would need a tune before the car was driven.
  4. Damn - shame it wasn't an F6 tune to put in
  5. It's one of the reasons I'm going for the ZF tune when I get my mods/tune done. Taking off from lights, intersection etc sometimes it's in second, sometimes in first - especially annoying turning right 100m from home each morning into a busy road - it either slowly piddles round the corner in 2nd or (a little bit more throttle) lurches back into first and screeches round the turn. The second issue - sounds similar to what happens to me when cold from a standstill with a decent amount of lock on the steering (eg - after reversing out of the drive and about to go forward)

    Theme could make a huge difference There's a dark commy ute that get around near me with green wheels (nothing else) that makes me cringe each time I see it. That said - with a bit more to get the theme going it could work - maybe
  7. Ugh - didn't even think of the weather - not looking good :(
  8. Time to clean the EGR valve? Seems to be affecting visibiity
  9. Anyone headed to Calder Friday night? Am half tempted to give my car a before run to see how it goes after some work.
  10. Added Maybe we can get Ford Forum vs Expensive Daewoo Forum match on Stainless's server
  11. Yeah - was fun. Have only seen people on it the once, but had a heap of fun with only a few on (I survived longer than just spawning in ) I think I gate crashed a couple of players who were just trying out the environment, a few more joined after we were chasing each other round the map for a while so it ended up a bit of fun. Friend request sent - am still working out how/when to play. raband is my nick if anyone wants to add me
  12. On the Grey Astra here http://www.wheelsrus.com.au/showroom?srchstring=Advanti&x=7&y=16
  13. Doesn't look like any of the current or discontinued wheels on their webpage - neither does the cap. Might want to email them the pic and ask if it's one of theirs?
  14. Missed the External Use Only sticker on the bottom of the unit :(
  15. You described [insert product here] as unused and disease free on the other forum - now I hear it wasn't?
  16. Or at least let the PWR rep who posted above know for right of reply/clarification - even if you don't wish to make it public
  17. Hmm would it be a good idea to find a nice looking young lady who's birthday it is, yell "SURPRISE" and give her one?
  18. Come do my work and I'll have your sleep
  19. That said - 260kw on a stock tune sounds pretty high doesn't it? Or was that the tuned readout and the tuner (for some reason) returned the car to you with the stock tune loaded (220 odd kws?)
  20. ?? Did you read the thread? He took it in for a tune, thought he got one and wasn't impressed with it. Turned out they didn't give him a tune - was still stock. Once they rectified it he was happy with the difference - was what he was expecting in the first place
  21. You could do a before and after tune photochop of the dyno printout from the first post Origianl JPG => $2,500 Tune JPG
  22. Wow - I like it Should get 2 http://boostpower.com/boostpower-compound-supercharged-twin-turbo-efi-engine-p-1732.html
