Poyz: Yeah :P Was fun.

Seeing the 32 GTR in my mirrors was pretty cool - we scared a few other cars which caused much amusement.

Being passed by 2 GTRs like you are going backwards must be great for the brown pants industry.

inark: Don't mean to be a code-cop, but the reason your images aren't working is your slashes go the wrong way. Windows (DOS) likes '' but HTTP likes '/' so they don't work on my Mac.

Can you fix? Would like to see the photos :D

inark: Perfect! Thanks lots :P

Thems nice pix!

poyz: He was keeping up with me - but that's not really saying much :D

I have only had mine for a month - so wasn't going all out. Was lots of fun all the same.

James: My brother told me Ula was driving like a pansy throughout most of it.

Could have something to do with the fact he once had to get his car towed home from Lorne. He can fill you in when he reads this post and abuses me over the phone.

Lucky for him my brother and I had our cars to go on an interesting drive on the way back home in the dark. Those corners come plenty fast in the dark, esp when they're blind!

lol, yeah i should've

Bloody potholes, on the way back my exhaust scrapped twice going over them:( not the tip but the last bend in the system before the muffler.

who was that grey 33 following me? did you see any sparks flying as I bottomed out?:P

Ah-ha! An interesting story to be told it seems :P

There was a bit of traffic that held us up in spots (that darn turd-wagon) but we were able to give it a bit of a go. Was the first time I have taken the car for a 'real' drive so am not quite confident pushing it really hard - yet :D

I am getting the suspension fixed (front LHS shock is busted) and new tyres soon - so would like to take it on a training course, then rety the GOR - see if I get more enjoyment from scaring Hyundai Excels :)

    • Yeah well per the video it took 15s for the stock unit to start up....even if I give it a few seconds discount for starting that is at least 12 sec before you get a reverse camera if you are trying to leave a park.  The android unit is way faster, but 2016 for the stock unit is a long time ago in consumer electronics
    • Yea that’s why I said ima test them with multimeter and see the reads.
    • Only at idle. Isn’t a problem when rev it seems.
    • @Haggerty This seems silly to ask, but are you confident in your ability to tune the Haltech?  
    • Next on the to-do list was an oil and filter change. Nothing exciting to add here except the oil filter is in a really stupid place (facing the engine mount/subframe/steering rack). GReddy do a relocation kit which puts it towards the gearbox, I would have preferred towards the front but there's obviously a lot more stuff there. Something I'll have to look at for the next service perhaps. First time using Valvoline oil, although I can't see it being any different to most other brands Nice... The oil filter location... At least the subframe wont rust any time soon I picked up a genuine fuel filter, this is part of the fuel pump assembly inside the fuel tank. Access can be found underneath the rear seat, you'll see this triangular cover Remove the 3x plastic 10mm nuts and lift the cover up, pushing the rubber grommet through The yellow fuel line clips push out in opposite directions, remove these completely. The two moulded fuel lines can now pull upwards to disconnect, along with the wire electrical plug. There's 8x 8mm bolts that secure the black retaining ring. The fuel pump assembly is now ready to lift out. Be mindful of the fuel hose on the side, the hose clamp on mine was catching the hose preventing it from lifting up The fuel pump/filter has an upper and lower section held on by 4 pressure clips. These did take a little bit of force, it sounded like the plastic tabs were going to break but they didn't (don't worry!) The lower section helps mount the fuel pump, there's a circular rubber gasket/grommet/seal thing on the bottom where the sock is. Undo the hose clip on the short fuel hose on the side to disconnect it from the 3 way distribution pipe to be able to lift the upper half away. Don't forget to unplug the fuel pump too! There's a few rubber O rings that will need transferring to the new filter housing, I show these in the video at the bottom of this write up. Reassembly is the reverse Here's a photo of the new filter installed, you'll be able to see where the tabs are more clearing against the yellow OEM plastic Once the assembly is re-installed, I turned the engine over a few times to help build up fuel pressure. I did panic when the car stopped turning over but I could hear the fuel pump making a noise. It eventually started and has been fine since. Found my 'lucky' coin underneath the rear seat too The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uLJ65pmQt44&t=6s
