hmmmm , nope havent got a clue. You keen on a kit like that are you?

Yeah i'am keen on the front bar, i was going to get a different kit until i seen this one online it looks great, it flows with the car shape nicely. The orange paint work also looks great, but i'am after the kit.pm me if anyone knows what it is as i'am going to keep looking as i have not found it yet.

i would recomend palmwoods smash repairs guy there called wayne top bloke i couldnt not recomend him... top work for the amount he charges :teehee:

yea my mate has gone through him plenty of times and always comes out happy, its not perfect but deffintaly worth the money he charges.

soon ill be getting a full respray not sure if the same colour but would be good to source someone that can do a good cheap job :sweat: hard to find i guess...

You get what you pay for...

speaking of getting what you pay for i just got a quote for a JimBerry clutch :/ Gotta save for an extra couple of weeks but should be awesome. Gonna get Marty to install.

yeah i got NPC clutch its good, havent had any problems with it yet but still running standard boost, its held up fine though for a 5 puck ceramic, a bit hard to get used to at first but after a while its great. im sure itll handle a bit of punishment once i mod it. payed around same for fitment. clutch was like $550 from memory.

if any 1 is looken for a job.... mechanic wise... guy i know is looken for some 1 willin to lern... >>>> 2nd-3rd year mechanic prefered << a bonus and will teach how to fit exhorst's

its nambour area

I didnt think a clutch would cost that much to fit. they only take about 3 hours. sometimes less.

Marty's doin it. hes gotta take out the clutch, send to brissy (freight charges involved) for JBC to build new one, machine flywheel, etc. then put it back in when it comes back up. Marty's hourly rate is pretty good too $70/hour i think. If it takes him less time than he quotes he wont charge it, same if it takes him longer. I don't mind payin when I know its going to be done right.

Yeah got a quote for $816 for an NPC thats why i went with the JB coz its pretty much the same $$$

    • As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.  
    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack. 
    • Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
    • In my head it does make sense to be a fuel problem since that is what I touched when cleaning the system. When I was testing with the fuel pressure gauge, the pressure was constantly 2.5 bar with the FPR vacuum removed. When stalling, the pressure was going up to 3.0 bar (which is how it should be on ignition).
    • ECUtalk pages don't mention they support the ABS computer (consult port has more than one CAN), so you might just need a different scan tool. But, I would expect ABS is a different light to the brake warning/handbrake light, do you see an ABS light come on for a few seconds when you turn the key from ACC to IGN? But since you said: I'd have a look at the ABS sensors in the rear hubs to make sure they are not damaged, disconnected etc.
