[OKE055]

Yep I know once this tanks out of 98 ill 044 and new fuel lines

[OKE055]

My 15" steelies turned up today just need to get them sanded and painted up but they fit perfect

Now to decide same colour as the bumpers or satin black a mates convinced me on black but what do you guys think.

I told you black now hurry up and paint them and put tires on so you can race :)

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.

[indelible]

what width and offset are the wheels and what size are the mt's ?

[OKE055]

15x6 front 175 65 15 unsure of offset

15x8 rear 225 50 15 offset 23+ but diff was shortened to suit offset

Good job mate, this car looks like alot of fun, good to see others supporting the ca's, I'm always interested to see what combo there using with a ca and what power etc.

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.

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!!!
