Talking Getting my car ready for 10s....

June 21 and 22 will be my weekend guys June 23rd is my birthday so I better get a 10!!

Here are the preperations so far:

http://users.bigpond.net.au/ajc13b/pre_dyno.avi

Video is nearly 9 meg but only just over a minute. I really have to get a handle on this compression thing...

The car is going on the dyno tomorrow night (Sydney time) with C16 and 25psi+. Hoping for close to 600rwhp (Dynojet HP), previously it made near 500rwhp on the nose on pump fuel with the dud turbo, so with the new turbo, new boost solenoid, more boost and more timing it should come close

Will get video of the car on the dyno of course and post it up for for you guys to see. Hope you guys don't mind Will also post videos of the car at the track in 2 and a bit weeks time.

Steve

Your car is badass. I love to see the older 7s (and older rotaries in general) making huge numbers. Keep it up and GOOD luck!!!

Just a quick question that I could probably find the answer to if I searched, but is this your "daily driver" car, or could it be? I mean, maybe you don't drive it every day, but it sees the streets, right?

Thanks mate

The car is driven all the time, but isn't my daily driver. It has great street manners, doesn't use *too* much fuel (depends on how heavy I am on the accelerator ) and can turn corners! Only down side is its a little noisy and can't be left anywhere
