i just realised i havent posted in this thread yet.

big fan, tbh im just waiting to come watch this. be super keen to run against you, who knows if i get big enough balls i might think about putting some race fuel in myself to give you a run (you will win). 10.6 is the WA manual record. shane is a big guy, like 6'+ your skinny lebness should save you ATLEAST 0.1 seconds!

No problems mate, that was at super lap after 6 flying laps, so **** was pretty hot, but when did the heat shield there and it was so much better than the bag straight away.

What's the "ACL" stuff? Is it that metallic fabric stuff? My waste gate is raping my bonnet liner! Need to cover the hole and fix it ASAP!

OH IS IT NOW? Might want to get that sorted out.........

ACL stuff is just metal shielding or whatever - seen the heat shielding on XR6T's, over the top of the manifold? - That's it. It's just a sheet and can cut it up, bend a bit etc.

Im hanging just to hear it start! won't be getting run for a lil while as I'd have a few kms to put on the motor b4 turning up the boost, soo looks like it will be going in a lot of cruises till then!

Besides I need to cage it to run a decent number! Well the number I'm after anyways! We'll just have to wait and see how it all pans out I guess..

Anywho another update, ecu has been mounted and car is getting completely re-wired at the moment, all that's really left is fuel system, mount gauges and start her up, then just the lil finishing touches, not long now, fingers crossed..

leb vlt · 07-02-12, 09:08

End of feb I rekn, Sean still has a bit of fab work to do around the car, stuff I've wanted done since dropping the car off.

rb25vlt8 · 07-02-12, 12:04

Nice work man so now that the cage is getting fitted are u Gina hit the strip after run in ??

leb vlt · 07-02-12, 12:42

Yer pretty much, not expecting anything thing spectacular number wise as il need plenty of seat time to get use to it, but at least she'll be andra teched for low 9s and I'm only an engine nappy and scatter shield away from being andra teched 8s which il probably do for next season!

VLWAGONIT · 07-02-12, 18:54

still keep the 33 box and try for 8's?

leb vlt · 07-02-12, 19:01

Il be happy if I run a 10 to start with, if this box breaks il only replace it one more time and then it's a new glide/turbo/rear end! Or il sell it :-D

VLWAGONIT · 07-02-12, 22:02

Don't be hatin' just because he's interested in going fast instead of blowing manual boxes to pieces.
