HI PSI

Where are you located Peter? I have a spare engine withiout accessories in Brisbane thta I have not picked up yet... I may be interested in parting with it???

I guess that in this instance, the customer isn't right......

Hi Buggzy. Please take what we are saying as constructive cristcism. I certainly mean no offense to you or your product, but I would really like for the mount to have a wider base and substantial vertical bracing (eg:- C Section) to be added. Normal vibration and shock loading will take its toll on the unsupported mount. The stress and twisting due to Gforces will be extreme when you consider that it will be 3-4Kg (At a guess) and the mount is not in a central position . I really feel that there is amarket for your product. I for one would love to have the Rapid and Process West Bling. But I like many cannot afford or justify the billet product. I am intersted in purchasing one if this area is rectified. I look forward to your response..

I too am also concerned about the mounting point of the unit. It appears that it is supporteed by one horizontal point, that has no vertical bracing where it is welded to the pot. I can only assume that the pot would weigh in excess of 3Kg when full and I am concerned that this mount would be insufficient and would fatigue due to the weight and vibration and eventually break. I am interested in the group buy, but I would like this matter resolved before I will commit. Regards Brad

I might be interested in a surge tank. When will ordering close???

It looks like the current FG V8's resale prices will crash next year... Glad I don't own one....

Steph, could you please get a price for the replacement socks for the 340 fuel pump please ?????

Bring back the Bathurst of old... Remember the days when manufacturers needed to product 500 cars of that particular model to qualify. When drivers such as Brock sometimes sourced spare parts from the parking lot. These were the days that everyday people has real bragging rights about the cars that they drove.... It is this reason that the very cars are held in such high esteem, let alone value. The Australian touring cars of today, while exciting. Has lost its way. The heavily modified and engineered cars that run around the track today can hardly be called a Expensive Daewoo or a Ford. The only thing original is the outer shape and this is the real reason for the loss of the Aussie muscle car. Iam not saying that we scrap the touring cars. Maybe we should have a second Bathurst????? The real Bathurst... And just maybe it would stimuate cars sales and produce much needed job in engineering and automoblie production. Maybe then we could get some real performance cars... There is nothing like competition to bring out the best in companies.... Just a thought....

Mate.. You are a legend. Thank you so much for the reply. I would have been lost without you. Have a great weekend..... Regards Brad

Thank you all for your replies. I just sat there sc ratching my head when I opened the boxes.. LOL What size blowoff valve should I use ? Could someone rcommend a blowoff valve ?? Does anyone have any engine pay pics showing How and where they ran their piping ?

Hi all. I recently purchased a second hand cooler (Rapid V2 With 3' cold side) and cold air kit (Plazmaman) off a forum member. I am now looking to fit the kit and I do not know what hoses got to the fittings. I have PM'd Rapid and have not recieved a response. I guess that he must be busy.. I have placed a pic into this post and I have coloured lines pointing to the fittings.Could someone please tell me what goes where? Any help would be greatly appreciated Regards Brad

I'd be in for a ported wastegate and bigger flapper. I already have a spare housing...

I did my research and bought one pretty much fully loaded. BA II Silhouette 6 Speed manual Full luxury pack (Dual Zone, Leather& Suede, Colour Screen) 19' Speedy Envy SL King springs With 8,500k For 36 Grand Edit... Typo's

I recently purchased a spare exhaust housing. I am now looking for someone to bore it and fit the bigger Flapper. Who does them? And how much?

This was just to give you a few ideas. I will ring the old boss tomorrow and get him to send me a few pics of backboards that I have done... Flush mounted amplifiers with raised emblems/logo's Etc.... A 1507 will pretty much take up the whole backboard. So mounting the 4 channel and cap in either side like the Lancer will do the trick. Like I said.... Just a few ideas and very easy to do....

I agree. Never mount an amp upside down. It will cook it... Literally..... Here are a few pics of a Lancer that I did before I finished up in the audio game. It might give you some ideas.. LOL @ the Neon in the last one. This was taken before we made the cover for it...

We used to use to fibreglass coarse matt into the corners of our boxes and then line them with sound deadening material similar to that found under the carpet of your car. This reduces standing waves. Dacron is a very handy tool. We used it mostly when very small enclosures were needed. Stuffing as much Dacrom as possible into a sealed enclosure will actually fool the woofer into thinking that the enclosure is 10% bigger than it really is. So you can actaully make your box 10% smaller when stuffed with Dacron. It does this by slowing the sound waves by vibrating the stuffing which also stops standing waves. When a sound wave hits a standing wave it cancells the wave out. This theory can also be applied for your doors. We used to glue High Density foam to the outer door skind of Sound quality system to minimise the standing waves also. Is is good to see that more people Sound Deadening their cars these days. We were always amazed that people would spend copious amount of money on High End equipment and then refuse to spend a few hundred dollars to sound deaden their cars. This is why sound deadinging is good-: Sound deadening the doors with Eg- Dynamat does not only reduce ambient noise It also reduces the negative waves that are behind the speaker flowing around to the posative waves being created at the front of the speaker. This is commonly known as Frequency Spill. Eg- Hook up a speaker and run it,holding it in your hand. It has treble but no bass due to the negative (Rear of speaker) frequencies meeting the posative frequencies(Front of speaker) which then cancel each other out. Sit it in a door, which is now dividing the frequencies and removes the frequency spill, results in Bass.... I too recommend upgrading your Earth system in the car. I am not familiar with the FG. But the BA/BF are very noisey due to a very poor Earth system. I would recommend upgrading the Engine-Chassis and BAttery-Chassis earths. I would recommend a 2 gauge for this purpose. Ensure that Amp Earths are kept as short as possible and are Earthed at the same point. This reduces the difference in potentials in the earths and reduces the chances of a WIZZ, WIZZ noise through your stereo. Drill a new screw hole under the rear seat, Sand all paint (20c piece around hole) around the screw hole and fasten earth. Paint over to cover unused earthing area. I was a Custom Car Audio installer for 5 Years. At our local Alpine dealer. I used to run 2xR10' Ported off my 1507, ( We nick named it "Surfboard" because of its size..) with fantastic results. Am I correct is saying that you are using a 4 Gauge power supply? I see that you are using a Cap. Good move, this will help reduce voltage drop at the back of the car. However I would recommend a using a 2 Gauge power supply as the current draw will be bottlenecked by the 4 Gauge which will not be able to carry enough Amperage. The R 10's are still very linear at 0.8 Cu/ft or 22.6 Litres per sub with Partition (MUST DO) installed. That is an unstuffed volume. Reduce that by 10% if FULLY ( As much as you can possibly get in there) stuffed with Dacron. I have waffled on for long enough. I hope that this has been helpful to you. Good luck... Brad Edits are due to multiple Typo's. I must learn how to type properly one day....

No problem Gav. Give me a holla when it gets closer...

WelL I must say thatb this has left a citter taste in my mouth. If this problem is not resolved , I like many will be looking for alternatives. I will not support a company that offers me no support. They might get me once... They will never get me twice...... So ???? What is our best alternative ???

I should be able to help you out mate. I have a Black BAII "T". Kings Sl's on Speedy Envy's. The Bf Gt bar and DJR 320 skirts will be on by then also. What is the date of the wedding?

I haven't recieved it yet. The bar got smashed in the storms that hit Brisbane 7 weeks ago. I am still waiting for the insurance to come through. I have the DJR 320 shirts here but have had no chance to fit them as I am changing career and it has had my full attention. I will keep you posted and upload some pics as it progresses. Cheers Brad

Just out of curiosity... How much was the new Nizpro cooler Dean?

Is there any indication as to when testing may begin Brian?

Thank you for the speedy reply Brain. I look forward to hearing the results of your testing...

Are the rumours that Nizpro is developing a new Plenum True? If so, Does anyone have any idea of its release date or cost?
