Just a short msg to pay tribute and say farewell to my father who passed away after a battle with cancer on thursday afternoon.

he was a fellow skyline lover, and he last really happy moment was when i drove up to adela 3 weeks ago for a week away with him, because he was able to finally get into my line with me and see me open her up a little down the highway....

rest in peace mate your one of a kind :)

the most difficult time was to be honest, being at the footy yesterday, as we were both avid bomber supporters, it was our favourite game of the year, having him die the afternoon b4 the big day, it was safe to say is prob the hardest thing to do was stand through the minutes silence and the last stand bugel song thingy.....

but was something i had to do ANZAC day means more now, for me at least anyway

I feel for you mate - I also lost my father due to a car crash just on 3 yrs ago this month. Try to focus on all the good memories when you're feeling down, I know its hard, I still can't believe my dad is gone...

R.I.P to all of our passed loved ones.

Hey buddy... obviously a trying time in ones life... i had to go thru it at the begining of this year when i lost my grandfather... its with the help of very close friends and the loved ones around this that we get the strength to go on and remember the times that both lives met wether it be happy or sad. Glad to see you got to spend sometime with him before he passed on... one thing i never had the pleasure of doing... cheerish it and may he rest in peace.

there are two certancies(spelling) in life, taxes and death...while some can manage to avoid taxes, we all have to face death, be it our own, and the people we truly love and care for.

ive always said "quality not quantity", and in life, where we know not where it will end, this should be a must. and it sounds like your father did just that. and im sure he is up there somewhere, watching out for you

    • You’ll be very upset when you bust that too not to mention the gearing totally sucks. Don’t do it.
    • Is the panel filter one that is oiled? Have you ever cleaned or touched the AFM?
    • So.... the K&N air box thingo was too big, ended up gifting it to a mate, well, by gifting it he actually supplied food and beer at the pub,  which was nice, as it will not sit on a shelf in the garage for the next 10 years I did trim up some of the existing stuff to neaten it all up and gave it some wrinkle paint, unfortunately it currently has a used and abused mish mash of different types of hose clamps, 4 big fat T bolt type (shit), and a few normal clamps of vairing sizes and brands, but..... only until the 6 constant tension black worm clamps that I ordered from EFI solutions turn up next week Currently the current hose clamps are triggering me hard, LOL Is this the final version, probably not, I really want just 2 silicone pieces, a straight bit of silicone from the filter to the MAF is easy and will happen as soon as I head into Just Jap tomorrow, the problematic part is a 30° silicone bend from the MAF to the TB that I can connect the engine breather from the head, I found that there are bulk head fittings for boat bilge pumps that should work, but until I can get a 30° silicone bend the alloy pipe, and the 11ty thousand hose clamps, are there for the foreseeable future 4 hose clamps are golden, 6 are grudgingly acceptable, the 8 currently holding it all together is just taking the piss    I've also ordered 60 more retaining wall blocks for the front yard, I mis-gonculated the height that was required to get above the base of the Photinia's (red robin's) that are the hedge behind the front fence, currently it is 2 blocks high, and about 1/2 a block short, so going 3 blocks high will be above the base of the red robin's, and allow some room for mulch
    • It is the stock air box with the panel filter. Everything else is stock except the exhaust at this point, as I also went back to the cleaned 270cc injectors. I will check the RPM when the IACV is unplugged and report back.
    • As MBS suggested if this is happening when the engine is cold you're going to want to remove the intake air regulator and verify resistance + that the shutter is physically opening and closing. At -20C should be fully open, 20C half open, over 60C fully closed. At 20C should be 70-80 ohms. For AAC valve testing using a Consult cable see if you can raise and lower the idle by commanding more or less AAC duty cycle. Hopefully it's pretty linear as well, shouldn't be like 30% AAC valve is barely idling and 40% is 1500 rpm.
