Finally got everything back in and together, still have to touch up a few things and make a cover to hide all the wiring comming through the rail.

Image

The stinger is wired and ready to go (hopefully) just need some advice on the set up. Has anyone got a base tune for MPI set up I can borrow? Other wise what settings must I use with the MPI set up? Does the l300 dizzy use rising + or falling - signal?

Thanks in advanced

That car and engine look fantastic but I hate the "moron" interior, it's the same colour as mine, lol.
You are doing a wonderful job.

Shes finally back on the road and tuned. Made 155rwkw and is great to drive.
The less assisted JB steering pump paired with all new ball joints and bushes makes for a great driving feel, now to put the LSD back where it belongs so I can put the power down :twisted:

Awesome! That's exactly the power I want and that nice steering feel!
And knowing the Starion drive-train can cope less the headaches with something going wrong later on!
Enjoy your ride :beer

Took it for a drive in the stunning Adelaide Hills on a foggy Saturday Morning and came across a fallen tree on the road, luckily i was going well under the speed limit due to the crappy road conditions so i didn't hit anything but it was surpising to say the least :roll:

Still haven't had a chance to really test the coilovers due to the winter weather but its quite nice to drive. :twisted:

Whilst installing the coilovers I noticed my front pads are getting quite low, what kinds of pads are you guys running on the standard brakes? whats the best all rounder for daily and spirited driving as it may see the track in the near future? :pimp

That's a good looking car :beer

I've used QFM A1RMs, and they have been great, but I cannot compare them to other hipo pads as I haven't really used anything else

Std internals, machined and balanced, deleted silent shafts, ported / OS valves 4g64 head, Sonata MPI, XF throttle body, 550cc Injectors, TD05 16G, FMIC, stinger ECU, Wideband AFM = 155rwkw

Stripping my Yellow lancer I bought for parts and found it had EVO III brake calipers :) is it very hard to fit these to a Starion? I figure I may as well upgrade them while I can as my Slotted std disks arent really fantastic LOL
