So I went out to Willowbank last night. Got 5 runs in. Managed a best of 12.665 at 127.7mph.

I can't seem to get it off the line aggressively but that's all me not wanting to break something.

Tailshaft Cv is gone after last night lol

That's the rdp tune that made 560kw on their dyno. I tried the fpt but I could feel it not pulling in 3rd n 4th like it should. Checked log abd cam timing showed up like it did on the dyno which we thought was due to valve slri ga not jeeping up with the agressive boost we put into it.

 

Happy with it, will try again when new springs are fitted andtailshaft is sorted

After the drags I had a horrible noise and vibration coming from under the car. Turned out to be the center cv in the tail shaft was cactus. After stuffing around finding out what to replace it with it turns out that Malwood use bseries Pursuit/GT spline stubs as they're a bit bigger/stronger than the turbo stuff (still 28 spline). Got a new CV from Hardy Spicer for $350 :/ malwood wanted $495

Silly me didn't mark the shaft when I pulled it apart either and funneling my bank account towards other projects I didn't get it rebalanced, the result is a slight vibration over 120kph.

Also finally got round to putting the gear shifter surround back on. Been racking my brains since doing the conversion for a simple way of doing it. Ended up (getting the brother in-law) cutting and welding it today to make it work. Turned out pretty good :) 

I didn't take a phot of the finished project as I was ina hurry to make sure it fitted but basically welded that rectangle 90 degrees to hot it was so that it would go on the tr6060 shifter mount.

That's wicked economy for something pumping that kinda power out. 

Should've stopped in Dapto and laid some rubber on the freeway.
