    ve ss v mods???

    Aluminium OTRCAI, Mafless Dyno tune and Full exhaust system, is the only way to go. If the car is Auto, diff gears are a must have. This is what 90% of the VE's have Before i can give you a full quote on all the above, i will need to know what exhaust system size you are after? Mild...

    In your first post ever on this forum, you bagged a product and or company....... You posted this in my forum area........ You said in your first post that you installed a blower, now you said you had someone else fit it. So if there was a fault with the component, WHY are they charging you...

    Harrop

    So why did you post this in my area for, I laughed when you said it was the fastest thing out there, to be completly honest, ive lost count of just how many customers ive removed these types of superchargers as they dont make huge horsepower. 430hp isnt much at all, you should be making 700hp...

    VY not backing off between gear change

    So if all of them do it, why am i not agreeing with you on this one, as only one manual VY that ive driven has done it, i dont drive 100's of V6's but ive driven my fair share in my time. Years ago i had to actually sort out a problem that had come from a Holden Workshop here in Adelaide in...

    VY not backing off between gear change

    If there isnt enough base idle air going through, the engine is relying on the IAC to control Idle, if the IAC motor is compensating for this, the IAC motor will work at higher steps, the more IAC steps, the more air into the engine. When backing the throttle of, manifold vacuum going up, and...

    possible cost to fit harrop truetrac

    To be completly honest guys you need to ask yourself the question, ive tested all 3 LSD types, Factory, KAAZ & the tru-trac, on street and track use. What ive found with the KAAZ, very predictable when sliding the car around, or burnouts, broken a few, and many people around Australia have...

    VY not backing off between gear change

    No this is not correct, on quick throttle closing you will enter decel fuel cut, so you will have no fuel going into the engine. The problem happening with the vehicle is caused by the ECU controlling the IAC motor with the amount of steps that have been programmed into the tune. On decel...

    6speed heavy duty clutch!

    I can only recommend a Textralia Z Grip, Twin Plate or Triple Plate clutch as ive used all these in the past, and they have held up to the demand. Weve been running mid 10's with Textralia Z-Grip clutch's pass after pass, without a drama.

    408 stroker kit, heads and intake for LS2

    LS3 or also known to be L92 heads wont suit your engine, as the combustion chamber is designed for 4.060 bore size as a minimum Id personally be going either L76 or L98 heads

    keep us informed on how you go at the track at your next meeting, what i say to all my customers who go drag racing, its not about how fast you run, it all about you improving on your own personal best time, and hopefully the day goes without any breakages. I use this saying for myself at the...

    408 stroker kit, heads and intake for LS2

    a cammed 6.0L with 100hp NOS shot, will definately get a 10 second pass, its not easy running 10's with a manual thou, alot of practise and track time will get you that 10 second pass. The last LS1 Nationals i think i did 7 passes all ranging between 10.0 & 10.12, i just could get traction of...

    408 stroker kit, heads and intake for LS2

    You can actually run a 10 second pass, with a camshaft and a NOS shot on what you already have, the best so far is a 10.4@133MPH, this was done with a VY SV8 M6 cam & Nos package, running a 26x8.5x15 ET Slick, with just a simple guard roll.

    408 stroker kit, heads and intake for LS2

    if your going to spend the money on mini tubs, to do the job properly you should remodify your control arms, relocate the shocker, relocate the springs, cut and shorthen axles, and then your stuck with a custom made rear rim, as you cant purchase any rim of the shelf to suit the back space you...

    Has anyone had problems with standard tailshafts breaking?

    The axles only break if the person behind the wheel doesnt know how to launch a manual, alot of guys just dump the clutch, the art in not breaking a shaft is slipping the clutch. Gearboxes dont break due to racing them at the track, they break or get damaged when inaccurate shifting or...

    Once again, i just came back from another great weekend, 8 launches 1.46-1.49 60ft, 8x 6.6 second passes 1/8 mile, winning super sedan class in the tri series. And once again no broken driveshafts or tailshafts.

    Has anyone had problems with standard tailshafts breaking?

    Correct Mick, the new engine is around that mark, as this new engine is still running in, once its done a few more runs, i will install the NOS bottles, and step up the NA tune. Will let you know what it makes..... Aiming for 450rwkw NA & 700rwkw with NOS on my Mainline.

    Dont say that your clubby will ever launch that hard, you never know where you will be in a years time, if the Drag racing bug hits you, you will be aiming for a launch like that.

    Which aluminum otr intake

    What HRT666 said is actually correct, after many, many hours road, track & dyno testing, data logging ambient and IAT, shows the Aluminium OTRCAI actually runs a cooler Intake Air Temperature than a Fibre Glass or Plastic OTRCAI's. However the Intake Air Temperatures on a Aluminium OTRCAI do run...

    boost+304= fun

    Its not all about how much boost you run, an engine can easily handle 20psi of boost, it entirly depends on charge temperature, combustion, camshaft, cylinder head design, pistons, rods and valve springs. Is if it will last or wont last. Boost pressure has very little to do with horsepower...
