True I suppose - more so I am not too concern about every HP that I should be getting for every mod that is all.

Still like dyno to see deltas I suppose but at the end of the day is just a number

Ok on a serious note, yes a dyno is a valuable tuning tool but lets face it we all know the main mods and what sort of power to expect and personal preference as to what you will and wont do. so after FBO and Meth you can keep chasing ever smaller power increases or look somewhere else. for my time at this stage i am FBO and Meth so suspension is next.

Oh and I most likely need some driver upgrades as well

True,... So after your suspension upgrades, book in for a dyno..

I doubt that our car will ever see a dunno, whilst she is ours anyways. All I know is that she goes like stink and sounds absolutely the way we (the wife ) likes it. Absolutely the fastest car I have driven, the T/C light flickers in 1st through 3rd, pretty scary sometimes hahahahaha

Good to hear John... I thoroughly enjoyed mine at Easter Creek..

Agree, in that these cars a are fucken fast..

And I know OT, but it was faster for me around EC in the 1M than the M3, and a more enjoyable drive.

Joe, I thought you said the lap in the m3 with Brabham was unreal, in fact iirc your words were "scared the shit outa me"

[sparoz]

What suspension everyone is looking at? Performance Shock Inc through HP has released an Ohlins kit. Road and Track coming in a few months.

Also the kw v3 DDC is interesting. Any thoughts - sorry to hijack your thread Zuzu

True.. the Hot lap with Brabham in the M3 was awesome.. But there is no comparison to the 1M as, never got a Hot lap in a 1M with Brabham, as no 1M available on the day, as you can imagine..

I was referring to my own "limited" track driving experience, driving both the M3 and 1M...( BUT then you already knew that, and just like taking the piss... )

Nah not taking the piss this time, i was serious. When we had a chat at EC (when you bummed the ciggie off me, btw you really shouldn't smoke) I thought you said the m3 was better than the 1m.

honestly I can't imagine stock for stock, a 1m would be better around EC than an m3. Very very different motors and power bands and on that track i'd expect the m3 to be hands down quicker, wakefield though i'd expect it to be very very close with the am out in front.

Just my thoughts though

Remus arrived...Peter@Advan fitting Thursday

[Zuzu]

Nice... Hope it snows, so that I will see and hear it on Saturday..

[Alpine*]

Noice!!

Bathurst and a top-of-the-mount sound off is a must

[RaihaX]

love the tips on the remus!

[jaffa12]

Looks awesome Ian. Can't wait to hear it!

[Ian///M]

Remus Street Race & MadDad mids. Just fitted, suspect it will get better with more miles on it.

Thanks Peter @ Advan for your help today!

[Zuzu]

Sure thing. If the weather is good, by all means.

What's better than 1 M3? 3 1Ms
