Thanks mate. ECU and injectors are next on my list to install. Had them sitting in the cupboard for a while just ran out of time before Bathurst.

Will make a big difference

Yeah being an adult to some degree.

Some degree

Working full time at the Australian Catholic University, moved to Kensington, Have Kaz's silver FTO now known as "SNOOR" after my maroon one got t-boned parked a number of years ago.

most of the community has gone to Facebook because late gen y and millennials want answers straight away and can't be fucked searching, but most some of the old guys are still around and kicking! I'm trying to organise events every now and again to get the guys together, but this adult life is hard and time consuming...whoever warned me about it, and i laughed in their face, a) i'm so sorry and b) know that i'm being punished for it now

[Shane001]

but this adult life is hard and time consuming...

lol, just wait til you get married and have kids mate lol!

On a related note, I moved a couple streets over to your place. I need more friends with racecars

Who's place, my place?
Good, I need grease monkeys

[Daniel2019]

Yep, literally 5 minute walk from your joint. Drive almost past your house on the way to work every morning. Give us a buzz if you ever need a hand. My housemate is also a racecar guy.

Found this while browsing through Flickr. Throwback!

[Shane001]

Nice one, thanks for posting that up bjk

Welcome, I almost went past it, but I was like... Heeey that says Brock's Skyline and there's a familiar looking silver FTO haha

[Shane001]

Bit of an update. Finally finished installing my Sard 650cc injectors a couple of weeks ago. Also updated the ECU with Nistune for injector adjustment and tuning, and to remove the annoying rev cut I experienced at Bathurst.

Took it to the dyno, managed around 320rwkw on 98, and 355rwkw on E85, at just under 19psi boost

Very happy with this result. Goal was around 340 (aka 450hp), and it did 355 easily, so stopped there.

480hp will be plenty

Next stop, heading down to WP in a couple of weeks for a test day, should be just a little quicker

[Daniel2019]

Nice. Let me know if you want a pit crew

[Shane001]

Nice. Let me know if you want a pit crew

Yeah mate, you're always welcome

Planning a test day at EC on Friday if you're free. First run since the upgrades

[Daniel2019]

Isn't WTAC on Friday? You competing with the big boys mate?
