Down the quarter after adjusting the suspension and sway bars I would expect low 11's high 10's. But not really setting this car up for the 1/4 or I would of gone an auto, I'm aiming to get a falcon that can go around a track decently (yeah I know that sounds retarded haha) eventually I'd love to give a targa road rally a whirl, so aiming to use this car on lots of track days and whatnot, rather than just straight line.How's your EB going anyways with the TLR motor, I haven't logged into boosted in a fair while.

The 9 inch was basically a straight swap over, I had to send my old factory borg warner diff to get cut up so Final Drive could get the correct pinion angles and exact mounting positions and stuff. EB with ABS (optioned only) and all ED's have tone rings and ABS speed sensors on the rear axles. For Speedo theres a sender unit that uses the output shaft of the gearbox to work out speed im pretty sure, my t56 has a loom that plugs straight into the original sender unit im pretty sure, either htat or I have a new sender unit that works with the oem speedo. Can't remember exactly lol.Its going to be a hell of alot of fun that's for sure! You through this build up on Boosted,Im sure there would be alot of guys intrested in this!Its getting there mate,Not long now till its back on the road.Yeah will be haha, might have to put a build thread up in Boosted sometime . that's gold been a while coming now mate, bet you cant wait to finally get back behind the wheel of the 747 haha.

Then Friday night went off to Antilag Racewars, which is a first time event just outside of Perth at Wyalkatchem aerodrome. 1540m Airstrip where we did 1000m top speed runs and head to head 400m and 800m runs. I drove the car from Perth all the way Wyalkatchem (180km each way), raced all weekend with over 30 runs down the strip and drove home without breaking anything. Over the course of the weekend managed to hand out much chop chop. Dyno run, my phone went flat and I missed out on the 622rwhp run but here's a 578rwhp one that I did get.578rwhp Dyno Run Anyways here some pics of the completed car Dyno Sheet, had a bit of wheel spin indicated by the dip in the middle there Couple bay shots Boot Finished The Aim MXL Strada fitted into custom dash backing with custom indicators, check engine light, high beam and hand brake Underneath the back of the car has the Cell recessed and the 1800hp Holley Dominator and aeromotive 40 and 100 micron fuel filters Here's some chop being handed at Antilag Racewars Go Pro Footage Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
