Name and shame? Pretty piss poor. Thanks for enlightening us. What ended up winning?
See dyno sheet above.
Cheers Wonky, image didn't load.
Can't believe the nerve of the guy. So Damo, when have you booked your car in for the tune to find the extra ponies??? Hehe.
The end result was quite funny too. The comp was split into 4 divisions - 4cyl, 6cyl, 8cyl and FI. The overall winner was awarded the top prize. Near the end, a guy with a 8 second Subaru ute (big block and blown) went on the dyno and fried the tyres each of its pulls. Clearly it had around 700-1000hp at the wheels. It registered 300hp on the dyno!! Effectively, making my car more powerful at 315rwhp hahahaha. Anyway, the car that won when I left was a stock looking BF F6. It made 360rwkw. Obviously wasn't stock haha.
And I'm booked in at boss muscle in a couple weeks. To fit the try y headers that will gain me another 30rwkw... LOL
Hey mate love the car looks so good.
Just wondering what height it is when you first get the coil overs in?
Looks just like how i would like mine to sit.
Thanks
I can't remember the exact heights of the car when i just got the coil overs installed. But I have since raised the front back what it was in that photo (I found I couldn't go lower - mainly due to the exhaust which hangs too low, and makes it a huge task trying to get over speed humps).
I'll take some measurements of how it sits now and guestimate what height the rear was in the photo. I'll get back to you soon on that!
Thanks for the comment :D
Yea sweet thanks heaps mate.
Yea trying to go lower than stock at the moment without the problem of exhaust always banging haha.
Hey mate, any chance you had time to check the height of your ride and what height it may have been in the early pics? thanks
Hey mate, sorry about the late reply. I've taken the measurements from centre of the wheel to the highest point of the wheel arch.
The measurements are:
Front: 375mm
Rear: 360mm
If you require floor to wheel arch measurements let me know and i'll get those for you.
In other news, I just got my fully adjustable Pedders 26mm Front sway bar and 22mm Rear sway bar installed on tuesday. I have found for daily low speed (under 55km/h) manoeuvres, there is next to no difference to how it was on the stock bars. However, at mid to high speed (55km/h+) cornering, the car sits a hell of a lot flatter and doesn't roll anywhere near as much.
I'm running my coil overs on the softest setting as I prefer the slightly more comfortable ride and the heavy duty sway bars really make it turn so much harder without sacrificing any comfort what so ever. The sway bars have 4 levels of adjustment, mine have been set to the second tightest setting. All in all, a decent upgrade. I would probably only recommend it to people who do a fair amount of twisty roads (mountain roads perhaps?) and to those who plan on tracking their cars. As for daily road duties, they seem a little overkill to me.
Overall, Im very happy with the outcome and another thumbs up to Pedders from me :goodjob:
I'll need to get some photos of a few things and post again shortly!
Thanks heaps for that mate.
Good to hear about the sway bars as i was going to purchase an adjustable front but i may hold back abit now for while.
Anyway i have just purchased the same coilovers that you have on this so i may be asking you for some setup tips haha :)
is that height from the first lot of pics would you think mate or the current setting?
Looks nice and low in the dyno pics.
So I bought the Duspeed Mk3 OTR to suit my MAF. I have some phone camera photos now, some high res of the engine bay to come shortly.
