Hi Guys,

As you may know Unique Autosports was recently struck by a massive fire in the shop above their show room. Because of this they can no longer use the show room and are now operating only out of their dyno room building and their workshop. Since this arrangement is far from ideal Crazy John is packing up his cardigan, pipe, captains hat and love boat and is moving to a new workshop soon. As he's already laid out his dough for the new place and is looking to make his move sometime in Jan it's time for him to get rid of as much stock as possible.

Basically anything not nailed down is open to offers. Between now and the moving date (yet to be set, but some time late Jan). So get in there, or call and hassle him or whatever and make an offer on the bits you want.

He has loads of stuff that must go. Particularly big bits like bumpers, bonnets, side skirts, mufflers, exhausts, suspension etc etc etc. And he is willing to negotiate on price on pretty much anything in current stock.

Personally I'm already breaking his balls on a few key pieces for my beer mobile. So by all means ring him, or even better get out there and confront him face to face with your low ball offers.

If you ring up and greet him with a big aussie G'day he will drop another 5% off the price, but you have to do it well to qualify. Another way to ensure good discount is to ask john to tell you a story. Ask him about the time some nice young gentleman tried to pass a dodgey cheque. or pick-up UAS clutch pivot and ask him to explain how it's better than a nissan or nismo one. He will have you entertained for hours. Use these tactics to distract him from the price.

Anyway, bottom line is this: John needs his stock cleared, so bargains are there to be had. All you have to do is ask.

note: posting this for "I'm all in" John as his computer is on the fritz (could be the operator though?!). I dont have any association with UAS except for having been a customer there for a number of years and I like taking his money when we play poker.

hmm it works for me. But John did say he's been having trouble lately. He's not getting email either. so best to ring, or go in there in person.

    • I guess one thing that might be wrong is the manifold pressure.  It is a constant -5.9 and never moves even under 100% throttle and load.  I would expect it to atleast go to 0 correct?  It's doing this with the OEM MAP as well as the ECU vacuum sensor. When trying to tune the base map under load the crosshairs only climb vertically with RPM, but always in the -5.9 column.
    • AHHHH gotchaa, I'll do that once I am home again. I tried doing the harness with the multimeter but it seems the car needed a jump, there was no power when it was in the "ON" position. Not sure if I should use car battery jump starter or if its because the stuff that has been disconnect the car just does send power.
    • 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.
