Interesting thing happened earlier tonight. Got to a mates house as cops were there for a noise complaint. They wanted to look over my car (was the only car there for various reasons) One of my mates more or less said "Hes just been to court for defects and shit and got of free(not quite true) so why dont you f**k off unless your a qualified mechanic" He didn't want to look at it after that :P

I hate my car right now...

Left headlight isn't working, not bulb nor the fuse.

Cut my hand pretty damn good.

Engine bay is now red :bunny:

Well fudge.

That sucks! Hope your hands ok, And you solve your Headlight Problem!

Nah, no Line. Just a Satria GTi. My new little project car now. Been through a couple cars in the past two years lol.

Had a Proton Wira which I was sharing with my Grandparents. Then got a Corolla, but that was written off in an accident 2 months back nearly now. So have the GTi now to play with.

Living down the coast at Miami, finished up last day of work today so on hols for a few weeks now.

what happened to the beast?

did you ever get that thing roadworthy?

The 31?

Yeah, got it RWC. It lasted 3 days on the road before the Big End bearing went. Couldn't afford the re-build so sold it off in bits and salvaged a little money from it.

    • So.... the K&N air box thingo was too big, ended up gifting it to a mate, well, by gifting it he actually supplied food and beer at the pub,  which was nice, as it will not sit on a shelf in the garage for the next 10 years I did trim up some of the existing stuff to neaten it all up and gave it some wrinkle paint, unfortunately it currently has a used and abused mish mash of different types of hose clamps, 4 big fat T bolt type (shit), and a few normal clamps of vairing sizes and brands, but..... only until the 6 constant tension black worm clamps that I ordered from EFI solutions turn up next week Currently the current hose clamps are triggering me hard, LOL Is this the final version, probably not, I really want just 2 silicone pieces, a straight bit of silicone from the filter to the MAF is easy and will happen as soon as I head into Just Jap tomorrow, the problematic part is a 30° silicone bend from the MAF to the TB that I can connect the engine breather from the head, I found that there are bulk head fittings for boat bilge pumps that should work, but until I can get a 30° silicone bend the alloy pipe, and the 11ty thousand hose clamps, are there for the foreseeable future 4 hose clamps are golden, 6 are grudgingly acceptable, the 8 currently holding it all together is just taking the piss    I've also ordered 60 more retaining wall blocks for the front yard, I mis-gonculated the height that was required to get above the base of the Photinia's (red robin's) that are the hedge behind the front fence, currently it is 2 blocks high, and about 1/2 a block short, so going 3 blocks high will be above the base of the red robin's, and allow some room for mulch
    • It is the stock air box with the panel filter. Everything else is stock except the exhaust at this point, as I also went back to the cleaned 270cc injectors. I will check the RPM when the IACV is unplugged and report back.
    • As MBS suggested if this is happening when the engine is cold you're going to want to remove the intake air regulator and verify resistance + that the shutter is physically opening and closing. At -20C should be fully open, 20C half open, over 60C fully closed. At 20C should be 70-80 ohms. For AAC valve testing using a Consult cable see if you can raise and lower the idle by commanding more or less AAC duty cycle. Hopefully it's pretty linear as well, shouldn't be like 30% AAC valve is barely idling and 40% is 1500 rpm.
    • Bloody apprentices! 🙄
    • Not sure yet.  Was considering speedtek because it was rated to 800hp, but when I did some research about him I don't think I will go for that🤣 So maybe giken gear set, but I'm afraid it won't be strong enough🙄
