Cruzed down to Taupō today and picked up our 8HP45 for the wagon.
We had contacted a local wrecker for an N57 8HP70 which they had in stock, sweet! ordered the plates direct from DomiWorks Engineering but unfortunately when the trans arrived found it was the N63 V8 bad boy (Massive bellhousing)

More research and a couple emails to Domiworks and we are on our way.
N47 8HP45 bolted straight up, just need an ECU and a 3SGE flexplate.
We'll need to freshen up the starter as she will be a trans off to remove.

Am thinking Maxxecu NZ or adding the Turbolamik to out Link ECU. We'll need to ask around tuners and drivers to see how the Maxxecu 8HP software development is coming along, Turbo Lamik already has known success but I'd like to keep it to the 1 ECU if possible.

Keen to see how she performs on the track

Yuusss, rip it up Kenickie!!

Looking forward to the show Mokoia Raethel and Rotorua Lakes High School.

🎭 MEET YOUR KENICKIE 🎭

Confident, loyal, and never far from the action, Kenickie is the backbone of the T-Birds. Whether he’s chasing dreams, backing his mates, or showing off a bit of swagger, he brings energy and edge to Rydell High.

Taking on this role is Year 13 student Mokoia Raethel, making his stage debut. With a strong passion for music, including singing and playing piano, Mokoia brings both confidence and heart to the stage.

This is his first time performing in a production, and he’s totally embraced the challenge - stepping into a big role and making it his own.

👇 Danny might lead the T-Birds…but who do YOU think really runs the show?

A big thank you to Autowire NZ Auto Electrical Engineering for supporting Mokoia in this role.
