Done a few things to this since last update, Got a new trans built, RE4R03A (should be good for around 800hp), still only a 3000 modified stall- JD Transmissions. Looking at going a bigger billet converter as its a little on the small side. Fitted an Aquamist WMI kit due to the lack of E85 up here (Which is coming soon I've heard so I'll prob swap to that). After a day at the drags I had dramas with it filling the catch can after each pass, So did some research and decided to pull the motor out to fit some -12 fittings to the sump to vent the crankcase pressure. While it was out we ditched the internal gate and fitted a 50mm turbosmart pro gate lite plumbed back into exhaust. Drove up to the drags on Saturday, Aircon on and put the 235 et streets on. Had 4 passes 10.75 @131mph 11.11 @ 131 11.06 @ 131 10.81 @ 131 Absolutely stoked to finally get a 10. Swapped the wheels and drove home.
