  1. I guess they only change the price if it cost the importer more and that would be up!
  2. ended up getting at set @ $220 each. Have been on for a week,slippery the first 5km but all good now. They have a bit of road noise aswell.(dont all tyres) Iam happy so far.
  3. looks the goods sly6t. I used to run a gtr at the drags that I sprayed/soaked water from a hand held spray bottle with ice in it onto the core,pre run. Even after the run, the intercooler was still very cold on the outlet tank of the cooler. Free hp, are good hp.
  4. thanks ratter.
  5. ratter, so this software can be brought from herrod? I was told by VCM that their software was ok up to 350rwkw. It must be these missing parameters that come into effect thereafter. Once I get the base tune in on the dyno(from the tuner)I can then tune it on the road to perfection with a wideband for the AFR's and readings from the knock sensor for ignition timing.Tuning on the dyno is ok,but tuning on the road will always get better results. The pro tuner would want big $$$ to spend hrs logging/tuning the car on the road,which I can do myself for free. I have done the same thing with EFI live which is similar to VCM on a r8 that I had. keep a close eye on your AFR's and timing,no damage can will be caused.
  6. Does anyone know what the most kw a vcm suite tuned t falcon has produced? and quickest 1/4 time? In the usa, you can buy the software from sct to tune your own car.Why cant you buy it here? I want to get a tune done on a dyno,then touch the tune up on the road and also make adjustment at the drags myself. Seems vcm is the only program that lets me do this myself. Is there any other options around?
  7. mark,did you use castrol syth oil?
  8. has anybody fitted factory ba/bf 18inch f6 rims on a fg with 6 spot brembos,iam sure the rear fit over the 4 spot but no to sure over the front? I want to fit a set of 18inch wheels to the fg for the track.
  9. anyone know how to get the digital speedo to display in the center of the cluster in the large format on a fg turbo?
  10. I have a humming noise which could be coming from the diff @ 100kpm under very light load? put your foot down or back off, the noise goes away? I changed the diff oil which was very dirty looking. diff could be on its way out? its a fg f6 30000km on the clock, has anyone else had this noise before?
  11. I dont know when the re002 are coming out(bridgestone rep had no dates),must be soon as there are afew special on the re001 atm. I got prices from $375 to $540 each from tyre shops, on ebay $220 each plus postage,they got to be worth a try at that price. I think it also got voted best allround australian tyre in motor magazine.
  12. Bridgestone Potenza Adrenalin RE 001 has any used these before,are the any good? they are on special atm, RE002 coming out soon.
  13. nt555 seems more suited to everyday driving,can you get these in 245/35/19?
  14. He found his mates dyno sheet,but not his?(check his other posts) you get for what you pay for!
  15. that's the answer there(had 16psi then went to 19-20psi after the cat back was changed),power increased because of the 3-4psi boost increase. Turn the boost down to 16psi again and the power would be the same as the stock exhaust(but less stress on the turbo and faster spoll up time) Less back pressure the better for the turbo(bigger exhaust),more back pressure more stress on the turbo(stock exhaust) If you could get the boost high enough,500kw+ could be had out of a stock exhaust,but it would be very restrictive with so much back pressure.
