hey kiddies.

in response to nik, work, the work on money pit when I get home.

one of the centre bearing bolts has stripped.

so, helicoil it is.

ouch

sitting in lunchroom typing to you guys.

fun times

I hate the damn thing. Although I want plenty of it, I hate it and come to the conclusion that this world we live in is all about this "money" and its disgusting!

I love it. I'm also highly capitalist

If it was up to me id go but it'd cost nearly 3 grand in fuel :(

... Should set up a fund, get the abomination to Sau Nats lol

No. Then that would imply that SAU QLD supports the abomination./

just unlike it mate.

No no, it was worth liking lol

Hunt for a new spoiler/boot combo complete. Here is the choice. I wonder how long it will last before it get unwanted attention from the boys in blue. Will have in my hot little hands come Thursday

Noice!

Pics when done

need to have it here in Qld, preferably the SE QLD.

there was talk, but your old exec team didnt exactly inspire confidence.

and not that many qlders come.

so it was sort of seen that they didnt want it.

I went last year, without a car at all.

not even a daily.

got a lift down with another member.

year before, car spun bearings a month out.

going this year again.

about 5 guys made the trek from WA last year.

they had a ball.

how do you figure that?

economy cant be THAT bad?

surely?

Ok I may of over exaggerated a bit.

1970ks from my house to Adelaide, assuming 300ks per tank (admiredly my tune is rich as ATM, but the cam I want with the real low Lsa and high duration is probley going to be worse even with a tune)

1970/300 = 6.5

6.5x$90 = 585

585x2 = $1170 in fuel alone

    • After using a protractor for an actually accurate assessment of what is required,  and by NOT using my uncalibrated eyeball I worked out I need a 25° silicone bend from the TB ro the MAF, but, my choice was either a 30° or a 23° (23° is a weird spec), so I grabbed the 23° one from Raceworks I also grabbed 1mtr of 3" straight from Just Jap, I needed 350mm, but they only had 300mm, or 1mtr lengths....meh Also ordered a 1/2" hose bulkhead fitting from fleabay, this has a smoothish mushroom looking head (they are designed for below the water line of boats) that will fit inside the bend, the hose bit and threaded bit looks to long, but nothing that a hacksaw cannot fix if required, the hose will then just get jamed on the threaded bit up to the retaining nut Fingers crossed and the unsightly amount of hose clamps will be reduced down to 4 once all the parts arrive 
    • Oil change does not trigger code 21. Code 21 is for coilpacks primary side connection. You can try to clear the code with a battery disconnect, hold down the brake pedal to drain capacitors through the brake lights with the ignition on for 10-15 seconds before you reconnect the battery. I have seen R35 coil conversion permanently cause this code with no ill effects so it might be the resistance it wants to see isn't quite right on one or more coilpacks. Could be inside the ECU, could be the harness, could be a coil. You can test it all if you want or just ignore until the car actually starts misfiring.
    • I forgot you have a Nistune ECU. Use Nistune to do all the tests I mentioned instead of faffing with 30+ year old electrical connectors. You can read MAF volts off that too, there are reference values in the service manual to tell you roughly what it should be in different conditions.
    • No. I think it might be the AFM. Hence the use of the terms "swaptronics", which implies the use of swapping out electronics for the purpose of diagnosis. It's about the only way to prove that a small/niggling/whatever problem with an AFM or a CAS or similar is actually caused by that AFM/CAS/whatever. A known good item swapped in that still gives the same problem is likely to be caused somewhere else. They're all the same. Spraying AFMs with cleaner is an each way bet between cleaning it and f**king it.
    • Oh wow! This might actually work amazingly. Do you know the ratio of the diff? I was told the only thing you need to make sure of is if the front & rear diff ratios are the same. Ours is a 4.083 Thanks!
