so me and 6boost came to an arrangement (thanks kyle) and now cressida will be getting one of the new precision billet 6766 turbos and 6 point cage, turbo will be enough to get me to 9.5 quarters, not sure if the gearbox and standard motor will like it but wont stop me trying :yes:

so sounds like you have picked the cressida, well for now anyway :cool: , i will have to crank mine up to catch you now !

 

yes for now cressida will get the goods, cortina wil stay as a 400hp cruiser for a bit. i don't think you will have much drama catching me

Damn thats a nice setup. Super jealous. Whats happening with the cortina recently?

 

cortina is being gay, first had dramas with gearbox on dyno and fixed that, then tuned car and went to finish tune next day and was randomly going very lean halfway through ramps on the dyno, clamped off fuel return hose and all good so replaced fuel reg and was getting it ready to go back on dyno and i think it has broken a ring land in the motor has a rattle when cold but goes away when warm. so i was going to pull the head off to do camshaft and springs but now will be pulling motor out and either put another stock piston in or buy a set of acl hypatec pistons

No good to hear about the dramas man. Saw you the other day and was gonna say gday but you probably don't remember me.

Have you got a rides thread for it on another site or something?

yeh I'm not really worried about the motor it is stock which is good cause i could have spent $5000 on a motor and it would still be broken from the same thing. i have a readers thread on performance forums for the cortina, you should if come and said hi just remind me who you are i have a terrible memory

put the car on the hoist the other night just to check a few things over as i doesnt get much looked at apart from regular oil change, and realised that one of my vacuum hoses was blown of the powersteering switch so not sure how long that had been off but will have to start putting zip ties on my vacuum hoses for the next boost setting.

also ordered some parts from japan land to go on the shelf for when there needed, oil pump and head gasket are actually pretty well priced for genuine parts
