Shane: Noel and I were chatting about the projects and time taken to complete them tonight. It all boils down to one thing - PREPARATION.

If you start out blind and just think I want this, and just add bits until you think you have it right, you will always be disappointed with the hack of a job at the end of the day and you will always spend twice as much and it will take twice as long.

Before any great project you have to sit down and write out your goal. Write down a list of EVERY item you think would be needed to achieve that goal. Then take it to someone who knows what they're on about (not some cash junkie workshop that only wants to sell you parts that look bling or might be bits he has to get rid of coz they been on the shelf for a while). Once you have all the information you need, take your list to another place and get a second opinion. If there are differences in opinion, ask why, then go somewhere else reputable until you get two well known and good quality workshops to agree on what it will take to achieve your goal. Then you proceed with a plan of attack to get everything done.

Once you have broken it down and know what you need and how to go about it, all the legalities etc. , then you will have a smooth operation.

Either that or just FRIGGIN ASK ME IN THE FIRST PLACE!!!!!!

Then you wouldn't have to spend so much money on crap you didn't need.

Yeah BOI!!!

lol ill walk on him.

lol!!

hows my fist sound..??

I dunno, hows a criminal record, and an expensive civil suit sound to you?? Honestly marki, we've been through this before. Get over it.

dnt worry its not just me i knw of others that arnt too fond of u. its just the world as u say

What, you know a few people on this forum who aren't fond of me? How genuinely sad this makes me. I know people who think the same of you, does it really matter at the end of the day? No, not really, unless your seriously vested in making everyone on this forum like you. I don't know what your social status is Marki, but I don't depend on this forum for friends.

DAN, whats the total?

Dunno mate, the lift pump was $130 but the filler I won't know until it arrives. The express air freight from USA he said would only be $50 and will take 3-5 days. But not sure on the actual cost of the item. Just fix me up when it get in.

K brudda?

And that's all that matters.

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
