Since the LS1 boys messed the last thread up with usual irrevelant HSV rhetoric , I thought I'd try again.
The car has 5300 more k's on it now since the drive back from Melbourne.
Running on WA BP Ultimate, it just seems to be getting quicker. I cut the top out of the SS CAI yesterday so it can get a huge gulp of air, then took my brother in law for a spin today needless to say he crapped himself. Since the Unichip was installed this is the first car I've owned where my need for speed has been fully gratified, absolutely amazing, still got gobs of power everywhere and the motor is running as sweet as a nut.

Do you have major traction issues? Where do you think the car engines makes best power, low, mid or up top in the revs? Your car should be good for a mid 13 easy mate. Take it down the strip soon we are all interested in your times.

I know first hand what this missile feels like, (THANKS HYPNO) leave my GT and XR6T for dead, awsome V8 growl to boot, hairdryer free zone, FPV should take a spin and see what to aim for BA 2 GT. (sorry for the ramble)

to true, some only post here when something goes wrong..
Yes Doc any plans for run down the quarter?
Thank you all Gents.
The GT is in at the dealers for a diff hat leak and 15000klm service today and tomorrow. I have a "FOCUS" oan car. I'm sure god is punishing me for buying the other half a ZETEC.
I will get the car down to Kwinana in the next couple of weeks and see what it will do. Must admit I'm much more into good high speed road driving than burning up expensive Dunlops hurtling down the 400 metres strip (not that I'm adverse to doing that mind you).
Al you will enjoy it on Wed, it is D&T that we are meeting at isn't it?
