Bringing this thread back from the dead I know.....

Can someone tell me if the guys at Briffa Engineering have another number other than the mobile one listed in this thread??

I am having some polishing work done there and when I rang to see if I was able to pick the parts up I got a guy that does not speak English so well - which is making it difficult to find out why and how long my job is being delayed.

I gathered from a brief (confusing) conversation on the phone: a machine of some sort is broken and they don't know when it will be fixed.

Just my luck. Looks like the car will be off the road for a little while longer than i'd hoped.

Anyway, just wanting to get hold of the younger guy I met there when I dropped off the parts to find out what the story is.

Cheers,

Tay

hey dude it must be his dad on the fone umm thats the only number just see if you can speak to mick in person not his dad if you got problems ill go down and see for ya as im there quite often

cheers

Ok cool. definately NO problems though. Mick seemed like a very genuine guy when I met him.

Sounds like they just broke something?

Was supposed to pick up tomorrow but I'll just leave it till later in the week and see how they go.

Appreciate the offer though Andrew.

Here's a quick snap straight after I put the cam covers back on.

Still got to clean up lots under the bonnet but I'm getting there.

Gotta add a few more bits of go fast bling like HKS fuel rail and and oil filler cap......and then when I get really bored I'll get the intake plenum done.

    • Ahhh, I need the whole head unit. I definitely needed to roll back through and review your setup, ha ha! Neat setup they have going on. I just need a full double din head unit. But I want good and responsive. I might have to review what the likes of pioneer have out these days.
    • Ok so after much research and talking with knowledgeable people I've got my turbo conversion done and it's all running great other than 1 small issue.  Car has remained auto with the na auto and tcm, I've used a stagea ecu with. NIstune board and everything is great other than my gear selection on the dash. It illuminates park, reverse, neutral, 3rd and 2nd. But nothing drive or what gear your in when you pop it into tiptronic.  I'm sure there is may e 1 wire in the ecu plug I need to move to rectify this. Dose anyone here have any ideas?   Cheers guys
    • Sorry I haven't been following all the detail, so you may have tried this. Does it idle with the tiniest bit of throttle you can add? You've mentioned the IACV, does it have an AAC valve and have you adjusted it at all (ie, screw the idle adjust screw all the way in, then back it out a couple of turns until idle is stable)?
    • My bad, I unplugged the one underlined in red instead of yellow before. With the car started, after unplugging the IACV (the one underlined in yellow), it idled at around 400/500 for 3 seconds before stalling. Attempting to start the car without the IACV will not start the car.   It does stutter and sputter for around 5 seconds before dying. However, immediately after starting it, you can already hear some slight sputters from the exhaust.   It won't start with the AFM unplugged. If it is when the car has already started, it stalls in a few seconds.   Yesterday, I did take some logs using Nistune of 3 scenarios. Car idling till it stalls Car idling and unplugging the IACV Car idling and removing the AFM I also have some previous logs of when the Car is idling till it stalls and when driving and it cuts. I am not really knowledgeable enough to understand what to look for. After every test, car idles rougher and rougher, until I have to stop. It will be fine the day after.
    • There is no difference between a 17x8 and an 18x8. The total diameter of the tyre needs to remain +/- the same (so you don't mess up the gearing, speedo reading, and clearance when turning front wheels..... so you just need to use a lower profile tyre on th 18 than you do on the 17. /rocket surgery.
