Does anyone have pictures of what the car used to look like or what it looks like now?

I think whitey is trying to give me a big push into the CT scene (well played sir). I'll try and update this on the weekend.

hahaha

Found a 30 cm split in cooler July 09 Made 331hp @ 6800rpm and 1200lb of torque on 18psi Was suggested I check cam timing. I retarded cam timing by 6 degrees. August 09 Made 384hp @ 7200rpm 18psi To willow bank says whity And I blew an axel on the start line And bumped my bar on the gate on the way out to shed with you bad bad car. January 10 New axels. February 10 Back on the dyno Smc warning low voltage and running way lean (not enough power at fuel pump) Replace batteries and alt tested fine, all looks well. March Smc shows low batt volt EFI suggest not running on the dyno if lean out occurs at high rpm (Better to be safe then sorry) To date Smc reads 1 volt less then what it is actually seeing (Looks like a fault will have to send away) Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Your wife's car looks so nice bro. Have you put the Calais side skirts on and all that?

Such a sweet car. Can't wait to see it at the track, circuit or drag. Both great cars ang's and choco's. Whitey

yeah all the skirts are on just didnt bother with the black on the bar

hey mate, nice car hope u get it up n going, it seems its gonna look sexy

yo. glad to see i'm not the only one hanging around. haha. i might start going out again, got to see if i'm still in the ball park these days. you should bring it out!!

Well then blow the dust off at the EFI & CCC Xmas party track day pops. Have a chat to whitey

reason why i got into vl's was watching your old video's! glad it's still alive ---------- Post added 07-10-11 at 08:26 ---------- did the car go down south to melbourne to get worked on etc ? what ever happened with all that ? Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

331 to 384 rwhp with retarding the cam timing 6 degrees? man i only made 333 rwhp with t04z and we were stumped as to why so low and my tuner suggested sumthing to do with cam ..... maybee ill be giving this ago also, good luck with the car mate.

Yeah, the old owner (Brett) moved down that way for work and got shafted hard with the car its a long story and best not brought up. ---------- Post added 13-10-11 at 19:41 ---------- Quote: Originally Posted by mdbvlct [View Post] 331 to 384 rwhp with retarding the cam timing 6 degrees? man i only made 333 rwhp with t04z and we were stumped as to why so low and my tuner suggested sumthing to do with cam ..... maybee ill be giving this ago also, good luck with the car mate. Yeah m8, can't hurt to just double check the cam timing Some original photos have not been recovered yet.
