3 weekends, 3 trips to Sydney
For the third weekend in a row i travelled to Sydney, all trips being 86 related.
The two trips where i had the 86 worked on, i took 2 cars. Them tolls! Cant imagine paying them daily.
Saturday 1st of February - Paint correction, detail, Opticoat. @ Franks Bright Shine Detailing
Sunday the 9th of February - Australian Drifting GP Round 3 @ Sydney Motosport Park, Eastern Creek.
Saturday the 15th of February - EcuTek custom tune @ Tunehouse, Marrickville.
I had the boys at Tunehouse supply & install a GFB lightweight pulley kit, fit my Vigilant Motorsports CAI, and then owner Jim Ghelis ran the car on the dyno & custom tuned it.
He did a good job with the tune, and i ended up with a much more linear curve on my dyno graph.
The torque dip was also reduced, and i can feel a little more response due to the lightweight pulley kit.
The car sounds a bit meaner even on idle, and the Racerom features are awesome to say the least! The car sounds soooo good bouncing on 5,000rpm with the launch control feature!
The guys that work there seemed to be good blokes that are interested in their work;
They answered my questions, took care with my paint, and every nut/bolt/part that came off the car was neatly packed into boxes to take home. Well recommended.
