Glad to hear it's alive again, how's the extra performance mods? or is it hard to tell with the fuel pump skewing ur previous experiences?

Yes the VL pump for now. Will be going to a motorsport pump soon, just need to buy a couple of surge tanks first (one's for the sedan)

Yes Baron, it goes much harder. But performance cars always feel like they do if you haven't driven them for a while. On 10psi it feels as quick as it ever was, and the little stutter I used to get around 6000rpm isn't there either. Also, there is finally a reason to shift at 7500rpm! The old setup used to lose power after about 6800rpm.

Considering the attention I just sparked by chasing down an R33 GTR on my way to the servo for a litre of milk, Tuesday might be out for me.

How about March the 8th at the Motorplex? I need to get my interior back together, my engine tuned and serviced and the secret ingredient added. I also need some time to gather another couple of rear axles, the way these Pirellis are sticking at the moment they're bound to fail sooner or later. Oh, and next Thursday is payday and I'm broke atm.


Rest assured, the time will come. Hopefully there's a good video made too...
