Going skiing in NZ?

You should get your tune though as you already have so many great bits on your car to achieve a brilliant result.

Have plans to try get some 08s before a certain best detailer comes to town. considering how little i drive the car about 20kms a week. getting a tune is not :D high on my priority list. but i still will eventually try go for 200kw so will be interested to see how your car goes and get a drive of it if possible

Fair enough I just didn't want to see that Perrin top mount and dump and exhaust silicone intake etc go to waste.

Your the first person I'll text so you can come over and ridicule my tune once it's done. :lol:

Will either be next week or the week after as I'm a bit over this part of the journey.

Just the waiting for a date with the tuner. Can be frustrating with a few grand worth of bits sitting under the coffee table.

Ha ha cheers mate, it's all come to halt for now...
Waiting, waiting, waiting... for my dump pipe
waiting, waiting, waiting for ol mate to roll my guards
waiting, waiting, waiting for my alcons to turn up.

Booooringgggg! :lol:

But to be honest even if they all turned up I'd be pushing to find the time to fit it all, running a 5 month old is hard work! :shock:

I feel for you mate but.......

I worked 92 hours last week, have our 4th child due on 5th June and $3000+ worth of parts sitting under the coffee table and waiting for the tuners dyno to have a new PLM sensor to be installed before I get tuned. Just want to get this turbo fitted car tuned and see what happens..

Hey Dallas. how did that grille go?


Hey Kieran, yeah good man. Hit it with some fibreglass, resprayed it in a real dark metallic, removed that ugly bracket that holds the badge. Looks good.
Will start a build thread once I get some stuff happening, then we won't have to hack Bruce's thread :lol:
Did you fit that intake pipe?

Whaaaaat well that shuts me up, I'm lucky to work 92 hrs over 3 weeks, only one child, but do have probably the same amount of money in parts sitting in and around the house... :lol:
Gotta love the waiting game!

Sorry didn't mean to make it sound like a competition.

But you're right the waiting does get to me.

I've learnt a while back that momentum is a great thing when you start modding. Just want to keep the momentum going, get a result, whatever it is and them plan a track car that I'd like to build.
