Nice build Damien,that's decent power good to see the box holding up..will be good to see how much you can squeeze out of it once a 6speed goes behind it!

Hey all,

Been a long time since posting but thought I'd update :)

Fixed tuning issues completely, was showing reverse input on the Dyno in 4th courtesy of the reverse switch so got that sorted...

Had a look at the tune with Jamie from forced and with no tweaking it made 360rwkw so still going strong on 17psi. Reason I went with Jamie is because I live in toowoomba now, otherwise if still be going to Clint as he was faultless.

Fitted a tr6060 with all the fruit and gt500 internals from Mal woods, opt3+ clutch. Feels awesome to drive with custom shifter to minimize shift distance, completely transfroms the car and makes it effortless to drive now.

Bashed my cat out for "dat turbo whistle" through the exhaust haha quite enjoyable. Also removed centre muffler.

Pulled engine out and re- sealed the whole thig as I was sick of niggling leaks...

Now just need to drop it off at performance suspension at the good coast to replace 3 diff bushes, install adjustable camber arms and replace 4 balljoints and the other 2 top rose joints and install front coilovers and rear adjustable shocks.

Quite looking forward to this as it should make it much more pleasurable to drive :)

Then just rail, reg, another pump on the surge, herrod intank pump and fuel lines then a retune on e85, but that might be a while away.

Leaving outside stock still for now, love the surprised looks u get :)

Here's some pics too

Also went to performance suspension today, nice day hanging out at harbourtown shopping centre while others work on my car for a change! Car now has:

Front XYZ coil overs

Rear XYZ adjustable shocks with my old ultra low king springs

New upper balljoints

New front link pins

New front rose joints

New adjustable camber arms rear

3 super pro diff bushes, solid centre and side comforts

Now all the suspension is either new, super pro or nolathane. Feels awesome to drive now and no more cringing when I see a dip on the highway!

Cheers fellas for the good work!
