For sure...

 

Still gotta get a full tune with the E85 and different maps ... So will be looking to hire out a Dyno somewhat local ... This is where I am currently stuck ... :(

 

and well, the funds ... Latest round of upgrades has set me back .. Well, lets say over 5k in parts and miscellaneous things... :( :(

 

Haven't yet said this to the wife... I think I may round it down to 3k ... That will probably make things a little more pleasant at home...

I only ever do maintenance... awful lot of it in the last few years, its amazing how much maintenance the brakes, ECU, fuel pump, wheels, seats etc etc need; I have a very well maintained car.

Hehehehe ... Good to see I am not the only one with dem problems...

 

At least I am getting to the stage where there is not a lot more needed...

May look at some suspension things, and that is it...

OK .. So bit of an update ... Have made a bit of a decision, and not sure what the general opinion is ...

 

Will be looking at getting a manufactured coupling and converting the car to RWD. Finishing the tune, and returning back to AWD and using the coupling for when I want to have a bit of fun, and shit and giggle factor of having a RWD Evo/GSR just to freak people out.

 

Saves me having to buy a RWD if I ever really want to get into drifting as well ... lolz...

 

Coupling is going to set me back about $600, and is meant to be good for 800hp apparently. Have thought of trying to make one up out of a doner box, but to be honest, I am expecting a lot of power out of this thing, so don't want to risk an inferior part blowing up, and causing damage... 

 

Also figure by doing this way, it is cheaper to convert to RWD, use my mate and his Dyno to tune, rather than hiring a Dyno, or paying someone else to tune the car for me...

I am not that handy, so would have to source parts, then pay someone to do it...

 

Wouldn't there be room for things to go wrong though ...? I really don't want to risk blowing shit up, as I have no idea the amount of power going to be put out with this thing on E85 and all the mods...

 

At least with this coupling, it is a used and meant to be bullet proof way of doing what I want...

Are u talking about a vcu lock up? I've made a few for ppl to run on two wheel drive dynos. I have a welded centre in mine after I destroyed it coming off the line at wsid. Strong and will do what u want, juat makes slow tight cornering, like u turns hard. Runs a 50-50 split, personally I feel that the turn in is better.
