Clutch issues are fixed . Pedal feel is alot better . Also Changed the master cylinder to a brand new one.

All that's left is

- wire in reverse lock out solenoid
- wire in speedo
- change fuel filter , oil and oil filter
- fill engine with coolant
- heat wrap clutch fluid reservoir hose
- buy new battery

That's all I can think of that needs doing . Should be able to do all that in a day then book a tune .

Yeah good s**t man .

I had heaps of hassles with mine . Trying to get someone to wire it .everyone was to busy trying to get cars ready for summernats.

So I sent it to JEM . Full wire seq injection job . Run motor in . Powertune. Hoping for 400 kw .
But I think intercooler will let it down ,but we will see .

Tune is booked for 16th of November .

Took it for a spin around the block . It builds boost really quick . I hit around 12 psi in 2nd gear 3500 rpm . The plenum has a mad a big difference compared to before .

How'd urs go mate ? I brought a new battery for it to make sure it's going to start , other battery has seen better days . Need to give it a good polish and wire in the reverse solenoid . Then borrow a car trailer .

What happened ? I think I'll have dramas , something always usually plays up lol
But then again I've fixed a lot of issues I've had so not much else can go wrong .
I'm confident the plenum will hold . Already tested it with 13 psi , haven't tested if It can hold boost for longer than a few seconds , but your hardly ever on full boost for longer than 10 seconds .

What usually cracks the welds is boost and vacuum as the sides and top move in and out like a sub. Reinforcement would fix that . Or I'll cut the sides off and use 6mm alloy instead of 3 mm . Ill be able to get a much stronger outside corner weld

Did u get a power figure ?
