  • Something a bit different - I've just sent my cluster to Germany to be recalibrated to 9k RPM and 320kph as per below (won't use the turbo tagline, though):



    It was either do this or get a digital motorsport dash as a PnP to my ECU, but I thought this would modernise the car too much. My rev limit is over 9k, but apparently they can't calibrate it any higher

                            I don't expect to have it back on the road for another few weeks, as I'm short on time at the moment - plus nitrous is pretty fiddly with ignition timing :p

                              The rewards of such a great finish
                              I think it's great for the Aus scene to get cars in one of those 2 magazines!!
                              I hope we see more of This level of finish.
                              And more cars follow into the pages of those mags, it's realy good and shows what we can do here in Aus
