Didn't know you could get one in T3. Mine is Vband on 6boost Not really man. Stock GT3582R on stock manifold was more prone to wheelspin in the first three gears
-
Head work, intercooler and plenum will increase lag, believe it or not. They will improve peak power
-
I'm with you, response is where it's at. Nothing worst than some laggy turbo on the street. You have similar goals to me. I went G35-900, but you could probably buy 4 Aeroflows for the cost of that
-
that's impressive response from the TO4Z. Are you getting your motor built in QLD?
-
Most of these thieving workshops don't care mate. Have you noticed on Google reviews how many times a negative review is met with "we don't have any record of you in our system, blah blah blah"
-
Ok, Repco do sell a Kelpro version. Part number 98258. $30 per seal. Just changed them out. Bit of a bastard to get the old ones out.
-
Top effort man 👍
-
Hey mate, welcome. I recently made more than 500kw with a 3.5" dump. 3" exhaust tapered over the diff too... so I think you'll be fine
-
Best of luck man. So many barras out there making bulk power without issues. The number of sh*t ones with cracked heads or random thin cylinder walls is increasing over time though, as supply of good ones reduces
-
Until you ride in a car with 400kw...
-
Don't waste time on reassembly until you pressure test. Don't give up! You've come so far!
-
Man, I reckon your head needs pressure testing
-
Nice Sean. Welcome

So I've pulled the rear cradle out and I'm going to town on replacing all bushes while I've got the knuckles out for these new axles. But I have a question about the diff axle seals. Is there an alternative to the Ford ones, which seem to cost $60 each? It seems excessive for just a piece of rubber. Is there a repco equivalent that anyone has used?
-
The mystery continues! Good job getting amongst it
-
It comes with Mal Woods short shift assembly, and I have a Hurst shifter to go on that. I'll have to do some research on ignition cut. I'm assuming I need a pressure switch somewhere.
-
Had some stuff arrive.

-
Is anyone doing any fancy tuning for manual drag racing? I'm wondering if ignition cut on gear change would minimise mis-shifting and help the syncros?
-
-
Functionally yes. The F6 motor might have slightly different pistons, still cast though. And the cams in the F6 motor are also slightly different. FG cams are meant to be slightly better, but suffer lobe wear that the BA/BF cams don't seem to
-
Looks like coolant? Doesn't look ideal either way 😬
-
Yeah, I had a mystery misfire that was traced back to that. But generally, the wiring looms are starting to deteriorate with age and heat. Might even be a dodgy injector plug
-
Have a look at your cam sensors and plugs. Particularly the one up the back of the motor
-
What causes a typical rocker failure? Limiter?
