Re: whos up in Brisbane?

I got a TCC WORK BOV type 1 for free!!! Haven't put it on yet, lack of pipes in stuff... I'm sure it'll sound sweet. Been having a lot of wet weather up in sunny QLD lately haven't we? Having a lot of trouble with traction. 1st gear is useless, change, so is 2nd, snap into 3rd up a hill, no luck the...

Vaccume advance unit - desperate!!

I'm calling to all over Australia, and fellow Brothers over in New Zealand. I'm in desperate need of a vac advance unit. Older members may remember me last year annoying them about one; please note that I'm still without the device. I'm getting highly irritated by the effects that a perished unit gi...

Re: whos up in Brisbane?

Hey Smithy You killed a few unsuspecting cars yet? I wasn't having much fun when I first got my City T2, as I had the fuel cut come on too. Then I checked my vacuum lines, and they turned out to be all in the wrong places (diagram on the bonnet). You might wanna check that out too. With fuel cut com...

Re: External fuel pump

Boostboy, So it is indeed external. Would it be hard to make a relay for the larger pump, or I should talk to an auto electrician about this? So there is enough room under there? That eases things a bit. What pump are you using? You can build a FCD for $30!!!? Wow!! Yes, I am certainly interested. I...

External fuel pump

Hi all! Just wondering about the fuel pump on my T2. One time I was out shopping for a few hours. Starting up the car lead to repeated stalling. I noticed that there was no pump 'noise' when you turn the key to 'on'. Straight away I knew something was wrong with the 'ol pump. Is it a in-tank pump or...

Re: DIFF Ratios...

5500rpm? What was i thinking? Redline is at 6000rpm... Sorry mate, my head was't screwed on propley when I replied.  :-[ So when does the uninspiring rpm range come in for my T2? At about 3500 and above... At about 2500-3500rpm, it feels like its gonna fly, then after 3500rpm, it justs stays flat an...

Re: DIFF Ratios...

Henry,

Mate, that is so true about the engine above 5500rpm. It's just so breathless and uninspiring. How i (or we) get rid of this 'strangle-effect'? Short of fitting a larger turbo though...

DIFF Ratios...

I was just wondering if all of our City Turbos were running the same kind of diff ratio. My T2 needs 2500rpm to do the ton (100kph). Driving other cars, like a Corolla Seca needed more like 3000rpm, and so did a friends Skyline GTST, which needed 3000rpm.

Are they all the same???
