Car is going good so far, I'v done about 3000km's with no problems. I still need to get the tune finished off when I get the time.
I snaped the tail shaft with a 6000rpm clutch dump, so I got a custom made Chrome Molly 3 inch tail shaft made with Mark Williams 1350 series Chrome molly uni's and slip yoke, good for 2000hp.
I put some new tyres on the rear Nitto NT05's 275/40/17's, I no longer have traction issues.
I upgraded the brakes to DBA slotted rottors, Bendix ultimate pads and braided lines.

Thats all the updates for now.
Soon I'll be getting the diff rebuilt with billet axels, 3.9s and a Tru Trac.
A full respray in a custom blue.
My Simmons rims reconditioned and the centres painted gold.

cheers Matt


Hi Matt,

Been a while any updates for us all??

Curious to know if you’ve had time to get any of the above done :)

Cheers and Merry Christmas.

James

His bonnet didnt have to be modified in anyway to run his intake with spacer.

Thanks for that. It looked form his utube video that it sat under and now your confirmed.
From memory he got his tune at CSM. Is he happy thus far ? Reason why - I'm looking for a tuner and CSM has been mentioned.

Cheers Brad

Here's alittle update.

Matt has been enjoying the 363 every moment he can, gets driven in the dry and the rain.

It can be tractable if he wants with an angry idle or he can cut sick and spin his nt05's for a couple hundred meters when he feels like it.

A few weekends ago Matt got a phone call from his mate about V&E holding a dyno day, so at the last minute we decided to get the ca over there early and enter the car... we ended up being car 40 lol.

We ended up leaving and changing the exhaust back over to duals which took a total of 30mins including trip time and headed back out to the dyno.

Anyways here's the vid of the dyno run done.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DlHCF1ck ... e=youtu.be

Operator backed the dyno off because roller speed was to high in 4th gear.

I believe matt is looking forward to having the tune finished off to see everything she's got.

yea he definitely sold it, there was no issues with it other than it needed a touch up on the tune.. since then the new owner had it tuned and it made more power, but was recently for sale again, wether or not the new owner actually sold it, I don't know..
