hey funky whats the hold up... any idea when we shall recieve it or have u skipped the country with your small fortune :D

sorry for pissfarting around guys... just haven't had the time to finish em off. I'll be spending some time tomorrow morning finishing off the reauthoring of the PDF's (stupid japanese seller password protected all of em) and burning em onto CDs so I can send em off on Monday, or if I do em quick enough maybe even before the post office closes on Saturday.

Ian or Alex, if you want I can meet up with you somewhere around the Glen Waverley area and give you the CD's for the melbourne based guys so you can hand em out at the next meet. Otherwise I'll just post it out.

I suspect they won't be happy waiting to the next meet, so mail them out! :(

(I assume you had no trouble getting rid of the password? If not, send me a pm).

Ian

yeah I downloaded some password cracker thingamajiggy that got rid of it. The main delay was to get the full version of Acrobat 7.0 so I could reauthor the PDF's. All done now, unfortunately have to wait till Monday to mail em out.

  • 2 weeks later...

Yeah, um, like... monday came....and so did tuesday...and wednesday, thursday and friday too......any news?

At this stage, id rather just come pick it up from your place. GW is on the way to uni for me every day so that would be easy enough. Otherwise, if it is actually sent this week, ill wait.

PM me your number or something. Thanks

They were sent middle of last week (using regular post) so it should arrive soon.

If there's anything specific in the meantime that you guys need urgently let me know and I'll post a screengrab.

hey funky i need abit of info or a screen grab if ya can, of the fuel pump relay (mounted on drivers side under kick panel) and wiring to the pump in the tank, i also think it runs to the engine ecu as well. its a black wire with a yellow stripe (its the main power to the fuel pump). let me know if u find any diagrams of relevance :thumbsup:

I normally get things in a day, but nothing has arrived. Can you check that you sent it to the address I PM'd you?

    • Thanks for that, I'll check it all out. I can always do the brakes last anyway if its a problem.  The 16's are super cool, if they do fit I'll cruise around with them for a bit.  
    • Well, that's kinda the point. The calipers might interfere with the inside of the barrels 16" rims are only about 14" inside the barrels, which is ~350mm, and 334mm rotors only leave about 8mm outboard for the caliper before you get to 350, And.... that;s not gunna be enough. If the rims have a larger ID than that, you might sneak it in. I'd be putting a measuring stick inside the wheel and eyeballing the extra required for the caliper outboard of the rotor before committing to bolting it all on.
    • OK, so again it has been a bit of a break but it was around researching what had been done since I didn't have access to Neil's records and not everything is obvious without pulling stuff apart. Happily the guy who assembled the engine had kept reasonable records, so we now know the final spec is: Bottom end: Standard block and crank Ross 86.5mm forgies, 9:1 compression Spool forged rods Standard main bolts Oil pump Spool billet gears in standard housing Aeroflow extended and baffled sump Head Freshly rebuilt standard head with new 80lb valve springs Mild porting/port match Head oil feed restrictor VCT disabled Tighe 805C reground cams (255 duration, 8.93 lift)  Adjustable cam gears on inlet/exhaust Standard head bolts, gasket not confirmed but assumed MLS External 555cc Nismo injectors Z32 AFM Bosch 023 Intank fuel pump Garret 2871 (factory housings and manifold) Hypertune FFP plenum with standard throttle   Time to book in a trip to Unigroup
    • I forgot about my shiny new plates!
    • Well, apparently they do fit, however this wont be a problem if not because the car will be stationary while i do the suspension work. I was just going to use the 16's to roll the old girl around if I needed to. I just need to get the E90 back on the road first. Yes! I'm a believer! 🙌 So, I contacted them because the site kinda sucks and I was really confused about what I'd need. They put together a package for me and because I was spraying all the seat surfaces and not doing spot fixes I decided not to send them a headrest to colour match, I just used their colour on file (and it was spot on).  I got some heavy duty cleaner, 1L of colour, a small bottle of dye hardener and a small bottle of the dye top coat. I also got a spray gun as I needed a larger nozzle than the gun I had and it was only $40 extra. From memory the total was ~$450 ish. Its not cheap but the result is awesome. They did add repair bits and pieces to the quote originally and the cost came down significantly when I said I didn't need any repair products. I did it over a weekend. The only issues I had were my own; I forgot to mix the hardener into the dye two coats but I had enough dye for 2 more coats with the hardener. I also just used up all the dye because why not and i rushed the last coat which gave me some runs. Thankfully the runs are under the headrests. The gun pattern wasn't great, very round and would have been better if it was a line. It made it a little tricky to get consistent coverage and I think having done the extra coats probably helped conceal any coverage issues. I contacted them again a few months later so I could get our X5 done (who the f**k thought white leather was a good idea for a family car?!) and they said they had some training to do in Sydney and I could get a reduced rate on the leather fix in the X5 if I let them demo their product on our car. So I agreed. When I took Bec in the E39 to pick it up, I showed them the job I'd done in my car and they were all (students included) really impressed. Note that they said the runs I created could be fixed easily at the time with a brush or an air compressor gun. So, now with the two cars done I can absolutely recommend Colourlock.  I'll take pics of both interiors and create a new thread.
