  1. just a small update on some cosmetic changes 😁
  2. well guys i headed out to roll racing again for the Apr round which turned out to be the roll racing state of origin with NSW vs QLD going on. I have posted all my clips up to youtube on my page (https://www.youtube.com/user/xoom69/) .... 11 runs in total ...... the highlight of the night for me was running a Ferrari 488 ..... Enjoy guys.
  3. Fri nights races resulted in 11win & 3 loses. Loses were rx7 2nd run... Buggered the start. EVO 9 th33vo again buggered the start. And the sr22ve 180, this was my first run & even with the tweaks there was even less traction than last month. I think the cooler conditions.... So I had to tweak my setup post this run.... I wanted to go him again but never got the chance to. Here's the videos EVO 9 330KW https://youtu.be/XacokixPDxY
  4. so i havent hit the strip but i have been roll racing .... and i have videos .... have gone in Jan & Feb and am running about 50% win rate ..... some folks have some real monsters & there i am in my little granny stroller some of the vids below and others on my youtube channel.

  17. i remember in the past they used to set the code to the last 4 digits of the VIN ..... so u could give that a try .... another alternative is to go see a toyota dealership
  18. yes lets do a 6th gear drag off :P :P :P :P oh wait with those extra long gears n being n/a u'll struggle wont u :P :P :P
  19. thx mate .... i always get asked "are they real brembo's" .... my response .... "nah mate they are ebay caliper covers" .... LOL
  20. Lol ..... I only just read this ....... So duy how's the ep3 going? :p :p
  21. Nice build ..... And yes an engineers is still required ...... More so now than in the past ..... The rules are a lot tighter on newer cars and as stated most of the newer legislation affecting newer cars means they are road legal without an engineers = u ain't covered by insurance as stated. Good stuff mate Oh god yes ..... For me personally there was one main occasion where had i not had the engineers i would have been totally screwed ..... The cop was intent on wanting me ending up walking home or something ..... But in the end i left without copping anything other than 30 min lecture about done up cars & he was just assuming i was another hoon who didn't have a clue about this stuff ..... Boy was he surprised when i pulled the engineers certificate out ...... If only i had a camera recording his reaction.
  22. Hang on ...... Is it a bird ..... Is it a plane ...... Is it the hulk ..... NOOOOOOOOO ..... It's an EP3 WANNABE :p
  23. As i wrote to u in my pm response before reading the above ...... I just hope u haven't damaged the engine buddy. --------------- Hey Mate, OMFG dude i am gob smacked .... What on earth are u doing running the car on stock ecu, stock fuel pump and stock fuel inj. My advise DON'T start the car, DON'T drive it AND DON'T even think about putting it up on the dyno until u sort out ur situation. I'm guessing u r running the GT28RS turbo ? If so there is NO WAY the stock setup will deal with 8psi of boost .... Where on earth did you get that idea ..... I'm guessing ur ecu is going into limp mode because it doesn't know how to handle all the extra air coming in ...... I'm hoping u didnt find this out by driving or having ur car on the dyno???????? If so mate I'd be praying if i was u that u haven't cooked the engine or done any piston damage or caused any other problems because u would have been leaning out for sure. Did this happen on a dyno while a tuner was taking a look ? If so did they have the wide band hooked up to show AFR? Or did u simply drive the car straight after everything was bolted on ? I'm just seriously in shock by the fact that u have driven the car as is. Mate at a minimum needs to get bigger inj and the bigger fuel pump which I need to know a bit more about wat turbine ur running to size up. Plus whether ur thinking of running a return fuel line or not. After that a piggyback will let u tune fuel and ignition timing but won't take full advantage of the cam timing etc like a stand alone ecu would. So u could get by with a piggy back but I would recommend a stand alone. But 1000000% u need bigger inj, more flow from the pump & either piggyback or standalone to feed in more fuel because there is no way the stock setup could handle it. Seriously get this sorted ASAP and pray u didnt damage the engine ..... Seriously I'm gob smacked. Mate I hope there isn't any damage, Bill
