Hey guys, today, got the car tuned, it is running sweet now, but they could not install the boost controller, as getting to the rear turbo was too hard, so we tuned it at stock boost, pulled 180 rear wheel kw, bot too bad, should be able to boost it to 17psi, once the boost controller is in. So hopefully soon, I will get dump pipes, and the controller setup, to try and get over 200rwkw.

Hey Matt, I tried calling you, but you nver picked up tonight, ohh my God, it is crazy in the wet!!!! You feel more control than say an S15, because of the weight, and ohh, with 4 ppl in my car, I put 4 cars on a 350z, at the next lights, he ask me "Thats not a Lexus engine in there huh?" lol

Mark, i have no sickies left, and my suspension needs to be looked over :(

my target time @ wakefield

Which is????

I'm guessing 1:10. Which would be a top time, btw. 1:14 is already very good, although i know a street tune S14 that does 1:07.....

*sound of gauntlet being thrown*

:lol: you take the bait far too easily!

For 200bhp? Those times are very impressive! I know of a similar car to yours which runs a second slower than a Group A (street) BMW M3 around Oran Park. Our cars are such underestimated track weapons. Like a hot hatch or coupe, they don't need alot of power to get blistering times... yet, we can carry 5 people in relative comfort! :P

Of course - at the end of the day, it's not what you've got, it's how you use it...!
