| straight off the bat I am getting a very mild tune as I dont want my gearbox to let go. Ill get it capped at around 260kw. Hopefully make that at around 16psi. then when I sort out my gearbox I will be looking for 300+kw |

| Without a Big Stall convertor, you will be left with high 12's maybe even low 13's even with the 300rwkw ... Lag is your enemy im afraid. |

| that what I am afraid of.... what can you stall the standard converter to? around 3000rpm? hopefully I will see some kind of boost by around 3000rpm |

| hi gary no i have had the car for about 4 yrs but been off the road for about 2 yrs due to blow engine and estimate from neil (rush imports) was about $5000 to get new engine turbo's and installed so i left it on the back burners. due to a recent windfall $3500 i decided it was time get it back on the road so i bought a new engine and turbos picked it for $1700 and me and some mates (Qualified mech) installed the engine only to find there was no power to the ecu. so i went and saw neil and said he could not fix the problem but could outsource it to another mob my brother left his genuine hydraulic soarer neil and he had it for nearly 3 years yes years only to pass it on to someone else and now my brother doesn't even know where his car is. so i got hold of ESP and they said they could fix the problem been two weeks now gonna go see em today. |

| yeah that makes no sense to me either. Neil isnt likely to rip you off + you get the piece of mind that your dealing with someone who knows his In saying that I am good mates with all the boys out at ESP and they should do a good job for you. |

| yes my bro's car neil has had the car for 3 years and still hasn't been fixed. no not illegal if its a standard feature on the car, only 800 odd made!(as it was registered prior to going to neils) and as for neil well no comment as i have seen him 3 times now and not known what to do ("knows his s&^t") only outsource it. anyway went and saw esp today they have been to busy but should have some answers by friday |

| no not air bags fully function hydrolics like i said earlier only 800 odd with STANDARD hydrolics and therefore street legal and registerable. you can you them next to a cop car if you like(as long as you hide the switches(after market not legal) dance switches in the boot |

| "Only 800 made" must refer to the UZZ32, which has active suspension hence a reference to "Hydraulics". |

| could be a bit unsure but i know neil was trying to find a replacement "hydraulic" for it. |

| Do you mean the '32 needed new legs? He would surely have referred that to Peter Taplin to refurbish the existing ones? Perhaps it was a problem further up the control chain. |
