after many months of driving the car on a lean i finally have equal length fe2 springs in the front and took the lowered ones out the rear and fitted FE2 rears in the hope of gaining traction rides nice and smooth but doesnt go anywhere that fast any more single spins so bad after spring change tossing up wether to fit the superlows back in the rear and fit the front superlows i just got to match.also found a split in the map sensor hose thought ide found my stalling issues but nope still dies randomly gah

seems the gts may be a we bit faster if this gtech run is anything to go off .did the same 1/8th time as the wagon but i had my foot right off the gas for the last 2 seconds LOL was just doing a 0-100 test and happened to get the 1/8 by accident

Yeah i no i was just joking .You must have it tuned good but ,even a std motor would being pushin to run that smooth , nice work mate.Idont know why they bothered putting those shafts in looking at that.Iremember when i used to blank the balance shafts off the mitsy motors and there would be a very slight vibration at high rpm but nothing to worry about.

i've heard the balance shaft isn't a problem if you bring the idle up a bit watch you have to do for most cams anyways

thought ide go do a bathurst day gtech run pulled the restrictor out the cannon went nearly 2 seconds slower due to crazy arse wheelspin i pretty much gteched a powerskid first run 2nd run wasnt much better .also think its raised boost pulling it out as it misses its tits off at full throttle might be awefully lean :mrgreen:
