    She’ll be right.

    Ordered a new throttle cable and some other pieces, hopefully arrive in a couple days.

    Flipped the TB and got the pedal working mint.

    Need redo the wiring for the nitrous stuff and see how we go.

    Sad that you're selling this. I never got to see it! Bring it to VITS and after that, I might be OK with you selling it. Might.

    Got the car tuned in December. Didn’t go really to plan however.

    Ended up being on a cracking 45 degree day, nitrous solenoids weren’t working and the throttle cable was playing up.

    All that aside it still punched out 130kw, and carried all the way out to 7400rpm. Not bad for a stock head 12v!



    I got over it a bit, but slowly fixed some of the issues, it has no issue spinning the Yokohama S.Drives I’ve got on it so I’m not seeing much point fixing the nitrous stuff. But will be going back to the dyno to clean up up the tune (swapped out the stock downpipes for my 2” custom downpipes that were on a buddies car. So will pick up a chunk of torque and some more kw’s.

    However, As the comments above, I have officially advertised the car for sale. But I am confident that it will not sell and I’ll be stuck with it, which isn’t really a bad thing at all. Just means I won’t have the extra money to move out.

    Couple potato cam photo’s of how it’s looking out of the driveway.
