[Abrowne70]

Cheers for that guys, ill be looking into over the weekend.

Thats the plan, to go quick.

Weight reduction and diff gears would be the Go, a manual will help alot to but a mini spool of LSD is needed badly i know

I got my old VN going pretty quick with mods, no Gtech times but held its own on the street lol,

his right gears and a diff that spins 2 is 100% needed ade a huge difference on my auto vn

Hey I was just reading this thinking, nice thread! then I read you are the guy waiting on the tune, well you will be happy to know I posted that today so Monday or Tuesday you will have it in the car. If you don't mind a noisey of bomb of a car pull weight out is the ultimate way to go fast on the cheap but you really have to be commited to keeping the car long term because only Me, Morton or Bz Kn33z are potential customers after you do that to it

Haha cant wait to get the tune in my car. Yeah im unsure about the weigh reduction due to the noise level of it all, but still, its a way to go faster for free. Thanks for doing the tune for me aswell, much appreciated

Also looking at getting myself a G Tech but there arent any on ebay, any ideas where to get one cheap (not after the newest one, just one that u guys are using).

Cold Air Intake Modification
So i remembered reading how greenfoam widened his CAI a while back so i thought i'd head out and pick myself up a heat gun and give it a shot myself.

Yes i know this is a lot of pictures for just a CAI but i got bored.

Standard Width

Stage One widening

Stage One compared to standard width​

Flattening the Edges to fit better

damn thats huge, does it make much difference?

 

[Abrowne70]

Not a clue, would have to be time related and i havent done any timing so im unsure, but im sure it'll do some sort of difference somewhere through out my car.

looks good mate youve got the basic idea of a cheap go fast v6, anf you had me look twice at the top pic of your car with the new wheels (thought it looked a bit out of wack lol)


And greenfoam ill beat you one day with a half cut up executive shell with a 5 litre in it : ) i can feel a 13 second pass coming on

 

[Abrowne70]

haha yeah nice tricky picture aye!

yeah trying to get the 6 going as quick as i can without spending big money, need ideas of what to defiantly do next though
