hopefully, and most likely, a boost leak. Barely makes boost. Problem that Pat has pointed out, because the ViPEC is such a f**king good ECU, there are NO other symptoms lol. I'll be replacing some silicon joiners and 13 hose clamps on Saturday morning to hopefully fix it though. Until then, I'm avoiding driving my car - and if I do (like I will tomorrow arvo, unless someone wants to go to Trojan for me) then I drive it like a bitch.

weaksauce. i drove to tuggers and back with a blown off turbo > cooler pipe :D

map based yo. it will drive and idle fine just wont have any power.

omg my browser hates your avatar lol

Well the problem with it being MAP based, is that I'm not even 100% sure it's a cooler pipe. I hope it is, but they're all still together :) Though the cooler entry and exit pipes go from 3" to 2.5", and it would appear that the previous owner didn't use a step-down joiner - just a straight 3" silicon piece. Hopefully there's my problem.

It's not walking distance... Canberra is really spread out so the walking distances are really long but due to good roads and not much traffic driving distances are short

I'm sure someone wont mind picking you up, I may be able to swing by and get you as I can go past Northbourne with a slight deviation to my usual route, plus then we can cruise though the "City"

What goes on here in the ACT? This will be my last Friday night here for probably 2 months (finished uni until next year) and I wouldn't mind seeing a few local Skylines..

We usually meet around 10pm at Grevillea Park. Do a search in google maps for Grevillea Park ACT, its right on the waterfront next to The Boat House.

yeah that would be great heaps keen :blush:

Prob won't be out tonight. Doing stuff with the missus, and need to get to bed at a decent time - early morning.

But will try to come out and catch you guys again another friday night, esp with the nice weather.

Also keen to meet and do a few photo shoots sometime. I have a decent camera, and moderate skills. Just need ideas for locations, and a few others wanting to do some shots also (once the weather pans out better).

    • Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?
    • Hey mate,  I have a set, one is slightly damaged but wont be noticable once installed.  Shoot me a message if your still after them 
    • I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
    • You have a knack for photography my friend. It makes the 86 look like a complete bucket. The 34 went with you to Europe and back. It's special. (we all feel the same about our 'shitboxes' that every bystander seems to absolutely love)
