I come from a land down under
It used to go really really flat at 6000 but that was due to the .63 ar hotside.

Lost a motor on the dyno (failed injector) before I got a chance to wind the boost up to where it'd make some decent power then upgraded for the new engine.

Yeah that makes just so much more sense than saying I have xxxtires....:nono:

Do you work hard at this or is it a natural gift?

seriously man, what the hell is your problem,
i dont care if your a mod, doesnt give u the right to look down on ppl and insult them.
iam sorry i dont live in such a perfect world like u with perfect punctuation, and perfect ideas all the time.

how bout you just say,
"yea that would work, but if your lazy u could just give me your tyre sizes ???"
instead of having a personal attack at me.

iam not trying to start a fight here, but it looks like u are.

Each time I post something you have something smartarse to say/add...

I hesitated when the Aussies started joining here as I've seen the total fuckup SFAU is and believe me it's not happening here.

You want to be passive aggressive maybe you'll enjoy SFAU more than here.

Your call.

Your smartarse shit isn't going to work here.

I respect what u have to say, becasue obviously u know alot more about the topic than i
,so naturally i dont have anything smartass to add.
It feels quite the opposite to me, it feels as if i say something and u have something smart to say back.

i wasnt saying dont give tyre sizes etc. I was just addidng another, probably less accurate, method of calculation. The method that i use. If u thought i was being a smartass, sorry, but anyone who knows me from the other forum would know that thats not my style.
the shit that happened on the aussie forums had nothign to do with me. And to be honest i was quite upset about the shit that happened there. Hence why i suggested comming here to get away from the bs.
which, iam happy to say i think has been achieved.

i think u have the wrong idea about me. Resulting in you reading my threads in a -ve fashion. Iam not a smartass. if iam joking about somthing, you can regonise it from a :)p) at the end of the sentance. if iam not joking, iam contributing to the thread from my own personal experiences. I dont insult what other ppl have to say, i listen and learn.

now. hopefully this being sorted. lets move on and bring on more skid pics dammmit :p

Pato: That's cool it was a misunderstanding after all.

Like I said maybe I'm a little too proactive after the SFAU debacle and I'd like nothing more than to have you guys here but I know for a fact that the posting style from the Aussie forums is only going to cause issues here.

As hard as it is to believe SM is just that little more grown up ;)

There are certain members of the Aussie contingent that will NEVER get a SM membership while I'm here.

I did take your posts the wrong way and apologise for that.

I've been here a long time through thick and thin and am overprotective of what I consider my online home.

lol no problems mate :)
i was a bit like that on toymods,
it really annoyed me when it was being run into the ground :(
as far as my actions are concerned. it wont happen here.


back on topic.
went to my mates smash repairs business today to get a quote on my turbo a front bar.
looks like its going to cost around 1k, to fix it up completely.
Iam going to take my original front bar in as well, it may be cheaper to just have the turbo a duct placed in my old bar with the turbo a reo attached.

iam sick of the front of my car looking like shit :(

Are you going to mount the front plate offset?

yea for sure.
i have mine currently mounted in front of the duct, simply because the holes were there. but it just looks like crap imho.

so definatly going to mount it to the side.

Casey I think you should use a stock front bar too. I'll trade you my stock one for your Greddy one :p. I'll even throw in a Bomex lip lol. In other news I won't be ready for the dyno day :(.
