Thanks Pete, but would you be able to arrange a suitable drivetrain for this vehicle? I have no interest in chasing around for a gearbox here or a diff there, I would just want to give you the car and, pick it up done and really, apart from checking the oil, etc I have no interest in lifting the bonnet. Do you third party the drivetrain for customers at all?. It must be an auto

Anyway Cheers  Rob

Hi Rob, No problem we could build the entire car for you, including the Engine and drivetrain. Do you want a ute or sedan? If it has to be an Auto, we do have an Auto trans option in mind. :blink:

Regards

Peter

It would be sedan and auto, but I'm probably getting ahead of myself here as I can't at all judge what a project like this would cost, could'nt even guess+or - $20 grand so there is my first problem. But thanks for replying and I will follow the project and costing with extreme interest. This would be the car I've alway's wanted but would have to rule out at a certain $$$ level.

Anyway thanks again Pete

Rob.

Just had phase 2 done by Peter on auto BATXR6. Previously had the original phase 1 which was just the unichip resulting in 189KW at rear wheels. I have just paid $6066-50 which includes a credit for the unichip abd had the valve springs and auto done. APS Dyno now gives a figure of 272.7 KW at rear wheels. Can't wait to get BATXR6 to sandown for a few laps after I upgrade the brakes, last time went through a set of pads in a day approx 30 laps using 49 litres of fuel per 100 Ks

Time without any modifications 1.34 lap

Car now flies

Mate you will need a bloody good set of picks if your going to run the T at sandown, and maybe even a bigger radiator for engine cooling, how many flying laps do you run before cool down? 3 to 4 laps I guess. :blink: :lol:

Thinking of installing Brembo Brakes I go with John Bowe profesional course, excellent value usually a couple of warm up laps then timed for 4 then a couple to cool down then into the carpark for 10 minutes just driving around to let my standard brakes turn a normal colour instead of blue. As Brembos are awfully expensive (approx $6000) can you reccomend an alternative.

Mate if I was going around sandown at full noise in a APS phase II T, I would just bite the bullet and install a big set of brembos, I reckon you will be out of brakes by the 2nd lap, and watch out for turn one, it can be a DOOZY when you run short on brakes.............have plenty of fun in any event. :lol:

CMon Hasco, I am a track man myself and like you thoroughly enjoy the thrill it provides, however motorsport is motorsport so come along and support the club, meet some of the guys, we don't bite (well Geea does, the rest don't) :lol:

It would be great to support the forum. :spoton:
