    Just added you to the Christchurch CVR4 page Shehan.

    And yes, Carl's car sounds amazing.... and damn that thing is quick. He just needs to get it dyno'd so we can see the full extent of Adam's genius.

    Pleasant few hours

    i think we would all love to see the result. it will be a snapshot of what is possible with all the correct bits. and the exact cost will become apparent very soon when adam and friends offer the upgrade.
    and if you don't have the budget then it is something you know is possible and you can shoot for something close to it.

    it will be great for everyone.

    Adam already does offer the cam regrinds - I think Carl had a dyno done with the regrinds in place?

    I am super jealous. I've been thinking about a trip to CHCH next year to check out some of these awesome VR-4s and engine builds, maybe attend a meet or show some support at a track day

    Heh Goku when we went for a spin to your dads it was only on low boost because I forgot to put the boost controller vac line on.

    yeah it was dynoed at 422hp atw with the old regrinds. but now it has full billet cams, porting, forged pistons and conrods and all the other bits. so once I get around to putting the adjustable cam pulleys on it and setting them up it will hit the dyno and we will be resetting the club VR4 horsepower record with it.

    And @Davezj heres my thread with prices and some pics for the stuff I offer. intrest from you UK kids is lacking. you all need to catch up to us here in Christchurch!

    Was A good day though Tomo, hope to have even more people out next time and hopefully my car and scotts car will both be going by then!

    Yea, I figured it was a bit tamer than it looked on the track, I just thought you were going easy on it lol.

    I figure we'll have to try and do a few more regular meets over this year, with getting people's cars back on the road and what not.
