August 18, 201313 yr Author comment_664933 Got the rims painted and on, all I can say about ET streets is wow a car that was buzzing the first 3 gears well to then struggle spinning in first and hooking up hard in second these tyres are worth what you pay for them. Report

August 19, 201313 yr Author comment_665007 Had a good day in Manland this afternoon decided to splash a bit of black paint around on some spare cam covers and intercooler/intake pipe and start fitting my 044 and new fuel line for E85 which its getting tuned for mid next week. While I was at it I fitted an new prefilter for my surge tank and a new fuel filter on my high pressure line. Before After Report
August 29, 201313 yr Author comment_665839 So have had a crazy few days, took the car up to Forced Performance to get the car converted over to E85 ramped the car up on 98 to get a base to compare it to and something just wasnt right it was just laying over on high boost but was staying fine on low boost. Diagnosis valve springs had gone soft. Off the dyno at 5:30pm and started fitting valve springs thanks to Goleby's Parts that had them in stock and decided time to do lifters as well. Got to the last piston and heard this little bubbling in the radiator so diagnosis head gaskets done. So again Goleby's parts to the rescue while the head was off we replaced timing belt, water pump, tensioners all installed and car fired up that night ready for dyno today, rolled it on dyno this arvo frost ramp CAS died so off to get another fitted and got a few ramps done to get a base for the E85 tomorrow. Made a strong figure on 20psi I got some video and will upload it with the E85 graph tomorrow then time to go racing!!! Edited August 29, 201313 yr by OKE055 Report
