TE72 Rolling on Hoshinos

[stouty]

Still got the steering box will do conversion when i do the engine i think, doesnt really bother me. Wouldnt say there is a big difference but can feel it. Yeh im still gathering info on it trying to figure out how it is done, so will do a little write up when i have finished.

Had it on the dyno at D and J Ruff Automotive Taree this morn got some good results.

First run was 53.5kw 195nm at 6100
After a few adjustments, gapped plugs to .5 from .7, advance timing a little and balanced the crabs a few more runs it run 58.5kw 224nm at 5550 and over 50nm of tourque better at 3000 then first run. So im stoked with such small adjustments i got such a big result.
Torque comes in at 3500 through till 5550 and slows a little after but only buy about
15nm through till 6500 and thats when the kws jump up from 45-50 to the 58.5
I think the Torque being down lower is going to be really good for the hillclimbs espescially Ringwood. Seeing as i need the power down low for the corners.

Run at Ringwood Park today with a few new bits.
AJPS Traction Brackets these are a must for everyone that has lowerd there car i had mega axle tramp now its all gone so stoked.
Also have Speco shift light now i know where max power is i set it 400rpm more for gear chages so im straight back on max power.
I got a 3rd place in 2U with 37.42 fastest time ive done there so im pretty happy, really wanted to get into the 36's but. Hopefully next time.

Will get some pics up soon.

Had my first track day on 22/08 was a supersprint at eastern creek. Did a 2.10.694 improved 8 secs from my first session so pretty happy.

Had a great day loved finally being able to see how the car runs flat out only been doing hillclimbs, handled well didnt have any problems.

Here is a couple pics.
