WEEKEND AT PAP'S

+2!!

 

There are no pics, and anyway as my father always lets me know "when you go out, make sure the brown paper bag is over your head"

 

Thats a bit rough!!

 

Working on a mine site toughens you up.

 

I bet it does.

 

nope ............just look at pap...........

 

well pap just had some work done to the XR6 turbo ......aps phase 2 kit ......260kw at the wheels not to bad .........had to get the gearbox beefed up tho ........but its also better now more reliability.....

 

You know it does, sunshine.

 

Nice work. How much did you spend to get that power? I have some mates that have spent $2K, on dont ask me what..........to get around 320KW at the wheels.
REALLY cheap to get that KW they told me? I dont know much about them.

Ahem, sunny Jim.

 

about 3g ......and about 1g on top to make the gearbox stronger.....

Unichip Programmable
Engine Control Unit

APS DR Series High Output Exhaust System

APS High Flow Stainless Steel Monolith Catalytic Convertor

APS Cold Air Intake System

High Volume Fuel Injectors

330kw ...dont know how much at wheels......

 

ive ordered a set of brembro's to be fitted soon ......bigger disk for front........

 

All sounds very nice.

I will ask how my mates did it for $2K and report back.
How did you make your box stronger. That would be nice to pass onto them boys.

 

Bigger brakes are always good.

What size rotors mate and how much?

 

i dont know the details on them (the rotors yet ) about 4g for rotors and calipers.......the gearbox was taken to a specailist ....they pulled it apart and rebuilt it , its shifts alot better than it used to now .......because i got a series 1 xr6 turbo its running the 4 speed auto and the kit puts the gearbox at its limits , so to be safe had the work done on it....

 

Ah, its an auto trans.
My mates all have manuals so they can do fully sik skids.

$4K is big bucks for 2 rotors and 2 calipers and 2 brake hoses.
They would be wanna be gold plated for those dollars.

 

big cross drilled , ventilated .....they have brembro calipers ....i could have gone cheaper but ............meh

My old man is working for argyle at the moment, and he called me this arvo and asked if i wanted a change in career..........................................................I said **** off to my old man. Gees you need balls bigger than ben hur. Drilling for diamonds, not my cup of tea.

 

Where the hell is Argyle and give me their number!

That is unbelieveable money! I suspect they are HORRENDOUS work conditions for that type of money.

 

Jim, its argyle diamonds WA. Its drilling and blowing up **** in a shaft, 1 or 2km underground (not quite sure of depth). I will speak to the old fart tomorrow and get you some details.
