Since last update i have put in a wade 1620 cam which is the biggest cam that can still use the stock computer,has a nice lumpy idle and goes good.
Also got some white walls done which ive been wanting to do for years and finally got around to getting them done, i was unsure of how they would look with the turbo hubcaps but i like them.
took it to the last sunday street meet at sydney dragway again and ran a pb of 12.959@108mph, i didnt think i would ever run a 12 with the stock turbo, so to celebrate i put it on the burnout pad for a bit of fun

bought a microtech lt10s to start off the next lot of upgrades which came with loom and hand controller
I havent updated this for a while so here whats been going on with this
First thing since last time is front brake upgrade to vn grpA twin piston front calipers and 330mm rotors which also means running at least 16 inch wheels so its rolls on walkinshaw wheels at the moment, thinking about going back to smaller brakes to run hubcaps again tho but undecided as yet.
got a few goodies from custom plenum creations/redstar fab including cpc street version plenum and bmi 80mm throttle body, chassis rail mounted catch can, power steering fluid reseviour and undercar surge tank with twin 044 outlets for e85 in the future.
went to powerplay sydney back in late last year for a bit of fun. it ran great all day except when it blew a silicon joiner off the turbo on the burnout pad at the end of the day.
at the track it has run the best of 12.6@111mph with a 1.798 60ft on normal street tyres. i have some et streets but am yet to get off the line well with them.
Also went out to a mates party for some burnout fun. Went thru 5 pairs of tyres in one afternoon and the vl ran great and loved 3rd gear but the rear quarters had seen better days but has been tidied up now.
