thats bullshit
i hate cops like that
i've had them try telling me that the 5m-e in my supra is a non standard engine as "those cars only came out with turbo 4 cylinders"
if you think your belts are slipping, check the tension of them, if you feel they're too lose tighten them or if you're lazy like me, get some belt grip(its in a aerosole can) and spray the bottom of the belts and pulley's until you can be arsed doing something proper about it)
btw, nice ride

the supergharger belt has to be exceptionally tight. Mine used to slip at high revs and I thought it was already tight enough. But I tightened them further and it stopped squeeling

Took it to my mechanic yesterday, and he said that it has had a very dodgy engine conversion. There were quite a few small problems with it. He has fixed most of them, but he said he will need a few days to get it all up to scratch. Part of the engine pipe was cracked all the way around, and it was making a fair bit of noise, so obviously it would have been a waste of time tuning it. I've just dropped the car to Variflo to get extractors, 3" exhaust and a new muffler. He said he will need the car for up to a week, as he fabricates all components himself. Once that is done I will be putting it back in to the mechanic to be finished off and tuned. Can't wait to get it back. The guy from Variflo dropped me back at work in a brand new SS ute that had just had a dual 3" system put in, sounded tough as nails.

Nicely done...
Personally I would change the wheels over. Nothing to over the top but some nice simple alloys would complement the rest of the car eg FR's. Wider tyres wouldnt hurt either with the 4agze! That is unless you want to keep the sleeper look about it. Then again i think u lost that with the tiger mica paint job.

They are all the pics I have of it at the moment, my digital camera is broken so I'll have to wait for it to come back.
Going to pick it up now with the 3" exhaust, but have to drive it straight to my mechanic where it will be until probably Friday getting stuff sorted out. If all goes to plan it will get on the dyno on Sunday

Yeah at the moment looking good to go.
I'm gonna call the mechanic later on and see how it's going.
I told them that I have to go to a dyno day on Sunday, and he said it shouldn't be a problem. I have to get some new tyres too, my rears are a tad bald for some reason
