Looking good, as i said. I can get you your tune done Cash by a big known company for about $600 with dyno runs... will be cool its slowly becoming not standard!

whats the latest news lol, other than New tyres, wanting to get it tuned so you can go super dooper fast and know how much power its got, It looks so lonely sitting out the front of Team Poly everyday lol.

Make life easy for yourself and sand the guts of it out again lol. Gotta love doing bushes on these. so easy compaired to the old girls. Was under my VB for half hour with a Pry bar to get the front Zbar bush in, lol 5 minutes in the SS :)

Hahaha, Yeah you get that! Wait until you Get a Trutrak you will have trouble trusting yourself in the wet to begin with. Bit sketchy when you first get it lol... what are they waiting for?

I just sore the snail didnt pay much attention other wise other than the power figure. lol !

Haha, so it was! good spot I didn't even notice that lol.

Do you see what i mean?

Random i was just On that guys Facebook page he uploaded 253rwhp on a turbo VX ls1 your car has what 323rwhp mine has 318rwhp, Then puts this up "VY auto in for new Manta twin 3" exhaust, extractors, cats and touch up tune 396rwhp" i dont understand why your car is so far off this with similar...

Yeah thats it, Vortec is side mounted, They have different manifolds thats where the big money comes lol. :) I want a lumpy idle, but the whining is so good too its 6 of one half a dozen of the other. Cant have both to start with, the thing is though if you put a cam in it no charger to start...

Its not as clean as it looks over time, Because i wash the thing so much it has got nasty swirl marks from just using a sponge, I started to try and polish it by hand and it just looked horrible so i didn't want too make it worse I'm going to get it properly detailed and done perfect again. and...

Ok i was talking to the mechanic at work and he pointed something out thats not a bad idea, So to put a Small cam in you have to do basically do valve springs and the cam, Plus labour, then at least a 2500k stall converter Plus tune and your going to end up with about 360rwhp at the wheels if...

what were you getting for 60ft?

Yeah our day got warmer throughout Is my problem and my tyres got worse as the day went on too :( Yeah I intend on getting a dashcam at some point for my car when the time comes not a rush at this point. Yeah mines a Mafless tune, with much the same Power as yours, and you would have a better...

Managed to find a couple of videos from the drags not too great. but gives you an idea on how loud the car is. last run i couldn't get grip at all and its nasty on the street now tyres are crap! Its my car you can hear when im beside the other VY hes was quiet lol.

With the exhaust I've got Paccies, Highflow cats a twin mild steel 2 1/2 exhaust a muffler on each pipe and that's it. I think it sounds good its not stupidly loud when cruising along its nice at 60k and under 1700k you wouldn't know it was a v8. but over 1800k it gets loud and sounds nasty :P I...

How did you go? I just went through and looked at your whole thread haha... Your drag times are pretty good, I've got exactly the Same mods as you except a OTR, and I made 318.5 rwhp so not far off. I've got the trutrac, and I love it... In posts at one point you said about getting your LSD...

Yeah on the TV shows you see them find a car and then 5 minutes later its free and they have it rolling away. It really isn't that easy! haha... Hes got A HJ Taxi that he bought new and drove until late 80s as a taxi then drove as his personal car until mid 90s. Hes got 2 KE20 Corollas, Hes got...

He is a Hauder and doesn't like parting with anything even though hes sick and cant do anything has trouble walking to the mail box, thinks hes gonna be able to do everything when hes not. and hates taking the news badly lol. I'm the only one in the whole family who has done anything for him...

How it started. August 2014 Weekend Later. August 2014 September 2014 Found a car haha. After not being there for nearly 6 months just a quick trim but you get the idea on how much is gone. Doesn't look like much but there was alot of crap there i got him over $2000 of scrap...

Yeah I intend on putting 3.9s In it either way. But i like the idea of just having it on the road In summer and at the drags :) would be fun.. I"ll upload some pics of the ute and the VB

NA, I dunno would be cool to be able to run 12 Second passes? or less haha. dunno bout less but mid to low 12s would be cool. it runs 13.6 now. The Ute I'm not sure at the current state its taken me 18 months to clear out a path of **** to get too the shed that its in, I need to convince my...

Ok, bit of an Update. I did have a plan of keeping this as my daily and restoring a HQ ute my grandpa has hidden away in his shed But my ideas have changed and I've given up on the Idea of the Ute... So as of early next year The SS will be going in the shed I'll be buying a new cheap to run...

Cool guys i appreciate the help :) Now i just need to start putting some cash aside to pay for it, I know online Gears are a lil over $500. But I'm going to go see the bloke who built my current setup and has done my cars in the past as well as alot of other peoples i know :) Hopefully it wont...

what does it sit at when your doing 110km?

I've got extractors into high flow cats, a twin 2 1/2 system with 1 muffler on each pipe.

This sounds really messed up Clint, But next time your out and getting up to speed, do you think you could record the speedo as your doing it so i get an idea on how loud roughly it is and that because my cars pretty loud once its over about 1600rpm and I'm just worried i will be stupidly loud.

Has anyone else on here for 3.9s in an Auto LS1?

Been a while since i have been on here.

Been a while since i have been on here. I ended up buying some new wheels for the Car as the factory ones 2 weren't 100% round and weren't perfect condition anyway. So i bought a set of 18x9 Wheels Pretty happy with how it looks. I've also Removed the resignators, So now it just has...

Been a While since I've been on here. Since then I've done basically nothing lol. New air intake not OTR but just a different style. anyway i was wondering if anyone knows roughly what it costs to convert to a manual whole lot done?

thats fair enough its your call after all, hopefully comes out alright. I wouldn't have thought black would be to hard to colour match anyway? but who knows 20 years time you might notice it lol.

Paint and panel show and shine, On summerset court at lonsdale. I did work experience there and hes done work on a couple of my cars. His Names simon i think theres only 2 people there now. He mostly does restoration resprays and body work on old girls but i know he does some car stuff still to...

Both sound cool. But the awesome sound of that whine when something with a blower rolls up next to you at the lights lol.

Okies, Well Since I was last on here, My diff was done. I Had to run it in for 300km without doing over 80km. its thrown the speedo out by 10km. at any speed I'm doing 10k under what the speedo says. so pretty easy to remember when driving :) only just started giving it **** again. It spins the...

Well tell me what your looking at and what your not sure about? I pull them of cars daily for a living, I can tell you positives but alot of negatives on tyres. you would rather hear negatives which helps eliminate the bad tyres making choices easier?

what the hell is that? 0-100km guage? What don't you know about your tyres, whats so hard for choosing? explain. I will fix confusion lol

I've had a tune, and with my mine, with my factory air into slightly modified, I got 237rwkw, guy i no put a grewer or some **** on his with other similar mods and hes for 247rwkw what I've got it fine though. Got it so in Power it shifts harder and revs out further I get it to kick out and...

I'm going too see how it goes, Its got no problems recieving the radio or anything so obvouisly still working in that respect. The motor is just no longer working. So I'm going to push whats left of it down most of the way and see how we go... When i go on a trip I normally listen to cds anyway...
