The white smoke, are you sure it's smoke or steam? Was it when the car just started? Did it happen for 5 minutes or so while it was idling? Was it cold weather? Thank you Alspos for your quick response! P.S. I just updated my original post with more info :wink: As for the Smoke vs Steam. Yes, It wa...

You sure you didn't reverse the polarity of the battery or had the jumper leads around the wrong way? Most likely you've blown the fusible link beside the positive lead to the battery. If you've got a multimeter you can test the link, if not run a thick wire from one battery terminal to one side of...

actually... can you tell me about the wheels, they look pretty big (and good) where did you get them from and what size are they? They are genuine White Speedy Rims. I recently had to get one repaired and I was told they are genuine and good quality.. They came with the car when I got it. They are ...

I got my Pink-slip late yesterday and went to get a quote for my Green-slip. My rego has been out for around 4 and a half weeks while I got everyt...

How Heavy is your Starion?
I am very interested in the Power to Weight Ratio's of your Starion's! Wikipedia say the Standard Factory weight was: Narrowbody = 1,260 kg (2,800 lb) Widebody = 1,340 kg (3,000 lb) I personally planned to get my Starion on a dyno for power reading and taken to the local tip to use their drive on sc...

I'll be selling my starion soon by the way. I doubt I'd have any money to buy your Starion, but I am still interested in hearing about it! Since I am following some of your ideas and teachings; What kind of power is has your Starion got? What boost are you running to get that power? I already know ...

Keep me updated Sucka!!!!!! I was gonna pick up a Bosch 044, upgrade the injectors as VR4gone has done and maybe install a fuel regulator that increases with boost depending on how rich it becomes. I got VR4gone to send me some info on what he has done. The MAF translator + LS1 MAF seem expensive th...

I have a spare vehicle that I store on a mates property. I know it has the drivers side panel, but I am unsure about rust and damage. It's a 30 minute drive away tho, otherwise if it was closer I'd just go check and let you know right now. I am also in NSW, so It's not very close to drop it around t...

I have been looking into this mod for awhile. I am pretty el'cheapo and this seemed like a good way to start. Plus I have 2 JA ECU's, so I can try it out and go back to normal if I like. I have done some research on what most Fuel cut defenders do, but I found different things each time. They usuall...
