AzMahoony Hench, but no longer shredded or tanned. Member 3,343 Member For: 17y 8m 17d Gender: Male Location: Canning Vale, W.A Posted 11/08/13 11:10 PM Share Posted 11/08/13 11:10 PM Hey guys.With my mods going on later this month I'm really excited to test my car down the 1/4 when the Perth Motorplex opens back up later this year, the car will be running (hopefully) near the 400kw mark on 98 and whatever Im able to achieve on E85.Question is what can I do to make my time down the strip a somewhat safe one? After my BF having suffered alot of the notorious issue's common with these cars I don't want to take my chances twisting something.I've narrowed it down to:Trans tuneFlex plateinput shaftdriveshaftBushes (diff/control arms)I'll be running NT05's if that makes a difference.Is there anything else you seasoned guys recommend?Cheers.Question guy.

Great tuner just awfully pricey compared to Rob. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Damn! Downside of needing it for a daily driver. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
