I Hit a red kangaroo at 115kph and almost wrote my car off, ive since hit several kangaroo's and have wrecked everything from bumpers to having them jump into the side of the car at highway speeds and dinging the doors and guards,Bloody pests...
I hit a crow at 140kph and lost a side mirror...
You can disagree all you like, but by driveing the car up hills and makeing it work its actually seating the rings in nicely, revving it doesnt help anything and will only add to glazing the bore.Theres more than enough time after its all run in to play racer boy.
HI, who said you have to run it hard on first startup? theres a lot of debate and many different techniques to running in a motor but basicly the most common way is to get the engine started and look for any leaks set timeing e.t.c then take it on a few long drives till you clock over 1000klms...
i have a shift kitted a 340e tranny.Just get a kit from M V Automatics1 Stirling Rd, Blackwood, SA 5051 p: (08) 8370 0430
The unfortunate thing is hes in australia but the kit is fantastic, my auto split second shifts and holds up very well.This particular mob also do many stages to the a340e...
I can understand why people would want to swap out of A.B.S if they built a car with different engine tranny e.t.c and couldnt get the a.b.s to work properly anyway.If it doesnt work properly its a hazard ..
i have the red coolant in my 1jz and i have used the green valvoline coolant in my 7m and havent had any dramas with either, why is toyota red reccomended?.
Ive also pulled down a 7m that had done 275,000klms and it only ever had green budget grade coolant and dodgy oils and its still had zero...
fark that mustve been along time ago.lol
And just letting you know im so copying your intercooler setup, i roughly have your intercooler clone just need to build pipes.
I own a map ecu and im waiting for a few additions before connect it up, but a friend had one and it worked great on a 7m, comes down to the tune at the end of the day.
hey les im a little concerned about you running 550's, upgraded ct 26, and im guessing a lexus afm? you should have at least 50 hp on a stock 1jz.
Should still be close.
Actually i think its great, its definatly not a war. ive wanted to try and get a close comparisson test for while to see the differences in both motors realtime.Its very hard to get a proper side by side run that doesnt have one car advantaged over the other.
Hi les, its stock. Only has k@n and 3" mandrel exhaust ,255 walbro (its my daily)and ill set the boost to 14 psi. That sound like a fair test?
Sounds like fun either way........
If i wasnt married with kids id do it in a heartbeat, i love road trips.
Shame itd be a one sided race although id get good footage of your ass!:biglaugh:
hahaahah yeah id get owned, id also get broke driving all that distance.lol
I too would love to video his car, there not enough vids of it on here imo.
