You pay a small fee to play on these private roads in sydney.... :w00t2:

There trying to make the surfaces even smoother lately, it's cos the car bounces around a little because of the uneven surfaces at over 220clicks... :spoton: and I sh*t myself!

I've owned an LS1 myself and in comparison definately can't go past the awesome set up of the four litre barra with a garrett 3540!

I saw ripfpv on tuesday night just got back from a poker night with my brother.

We're out the front of our place and this black VZ guns it past us, my brother reads the plates out, I look at him, my brothers got the xr6t's keys in his hands, looks at me with a smile and before you know it we're driving down the road to catch him at the lights and my brother can't help himself and the driver in the vz agrees we hit a private road, ripfpv sounds the business, I mention to my brother if this guy beats the xr6t get his number cos the phoons gonna have to come out to play.

We have two runs both roll-ons first one he gets the jump punching it first and by the time the xr6t spools up he's half a car ahead and it pretty much stays like that, second run both cars launch at the same time and the xr6t sits a car length ahead and that's how it finishes with the vz passenger giving us the phumbs up and exiting the private road.

___________________________________________________________________________________

Had a run with an orange monaro with a pro charger kit, 407rwkw and a 10 second time slip, back to the private road rolling from 80kms in second 4000revs we punch it I can see a shade of orange in the corner of my eye when I'm in third as I hit fourth I'm long gone and kept pulling from him.

He comes back for another run coz he just couldn't believe how badly he got done mind you at this stage I'm surrounded by a number of LS1's that have put their quickest next to me and for a second time there's at least 10 car lengths by the time I'm about to hit 5th and the LS1 boys and the monaros owner just didn't know what to say apart from "I heard your phoon was quick but f*rk I didn't think it was that quick" followed by me saying "yeah the car goes alright"....hehehe....

Billsta u cant forget thoes plats, your brother should killed him,I beat this guy twice once on the roll & the other at the lights with a stock f6.Is your brothers car a manual with a T5.

BB we are certainly getting respect from the other camp mate

Had 3 ls1's R8 and 2 SS following me on the M4 the other week :blush: it was funny because I was going slow to see if they wanted to play and none of them wanted to overtake me......I guess they didnt want to get a spanking

Hi mate just waiting 4 a cold night to go to the creek again in stock form,after the we start with mods..Have u had any problems with your ZF at all,Im thinking Around 350 to 380 rwkw.Just make sure u keep them PUSSY CAT in the rear view mirror :w00t2: .CHEERS BB

BB let us know when u are going to the creek wouldnt mind coming along... u should be able to get a 12 with the cooler weather and a few kms on the clock

My ZF has no issues yet with 350rwkw, all depends how u drive it

I never cain it through the gears in normal or performance mode... only in manual mode as the line pressure is higher in manual mode

F6BF will do so,thanks I had no idea that theirs more oil pressure in manual mode.CHEERS BB

more oil pressure... would this make the gearbox change gears any faster or harder? sorry for the stupid question :)

Yes it does :blush:

You can get your line pressures increased when you get a custom tune.
