As Benno said Race Pace or there is another who's name escapes me. They're just under the Westgate Bridge. Ask in the Vic Section, they'd know the one I'm thinking of

I just gave Gavin an ultimatum 'I want my car finished without any further delays or I will take it somewhere else'

Im really pissed off.....

It's a shame when you have to do that sort of thing, but you gotta do what you gotta do to get your car where it should already be.

Hope he gets it sorted for you!

rrad this as under 'wastegate bridge'.

cars on the brain.

I was really hoping not to do that as Gav and I go a long way back. But now that bond has now been broken (been broken for I while, and just acknowledging it now I guess).

I got a message back from him saying the car will be ready next week (Friday) because it needs to be dynoed. Because he is strapped for time, I am going to relinquish this from him anyways as I have approached Sean at EFI who will do the run in tune.

Must admin I am very disappointed with the whole experience and lack of customer serviceability.

I have just gotten of the phone with Sean from EFI and have arranged for him to receive the car next week and had a little chat about a few things.

Im kinda glad this is finally moving on as it has not been a pleasant experience :/

    • 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!
