Well she is alive again!!!!!!

Unfortunately I have got a few wiring issue that need to be sorted out before I can get her onto the dyno and start doing a retune.

Hopefully I will have the loom sorted within the next week or so and will be able to start the tuning process and maybe even get out to a track day or a hill climb soon!!

wow Barry, I haven't looked at your thread for a while now
this car has gone from great to awesome, as if it wasn't quick enough before!
Can't wait to see what sort of results it gets now. Those laps times are going to come tumbling down

I'm heading out to Lakeside again on the 9th November for another run. Haven't been out on a track day since the last time I caught up with you out there.
I've made a few suspension tweaks, but tyres have seen better days, so not expecting to break my previous lap times, but after a couple of frustratingly slow 'happy laps' sessions, I'm hanging to get back on the track and give it my best. Next time I should have some Toyo R1R's fitted.

Will keep an eye on this thread, will be really keen how the upgrades go

Hey Darren, the quick "freshen up" has turned in to an out of control revamp!!!
It will be good to catch up again at Lakeside. I was thinking about going to Phillip Island for a super sprint in November but with no real testing I am a bit worried that it is a long tow truck ride home!
So I maybe going to Lakeside instead.
Be good to see your beast out on the track again!!

Well if all goes well this afternoon, maybe, just maybe I may get to put the old girl on the rollers and get a nice base tune done!

At last, 99% of the issues are all sorted and I got to get a tune in to the girl!!

I am quite happy at how this has turned out. I have got a nice tune into the old girl so I can go out and have a bit of fun at last.
It made a healthy 445RWHP on a pretty easy sort of tune. I think it has a bit more hidden in there, but that will have to wait for a while.
I have capped the tune at 6400RPM for now and will raise that sometime in the future to about 7200RPM.
I am pretty stoked that it now makes 13PSI @1800RPM!!!!!
Getting it to hook up on the dyno took a fair bit of effort, even running my semi slicks, all it wanted to do was bake the tyres!!!

Damn, that's got to be some sort of record for a stock stroke M90 L67.
