so i got pulled over at 0430 on my way to work for a defect check that made me about 30mins late. which is ok cause my boss is into cars so he understands but holy crap the copper, either first day out of a traffic school or he had little knowlege of cars.

i only run a stocko R32 there is nothing special about it so he must have just recognised the tail lights of something anyway, long story short.

Cop: has this got a turbo?

Me: yes?

Cop: may i see it please?

me: ummm yeah sure its behind that sheild there

Cop: step aside mate i just want to have a look at it

me: umm

30 secs later the copper was asking me if i had any cold water in the car to put on his hand after he attempted to become one with the front pipe. needless to say that was the end of the inspection but i felt bad the fella haha.

got me thinking there must be pretty funny stories going around i would love to hear em!

Dan

      Thanks, I'll give that a go. Hard pass on the steel bushings though 😄

      LOL.... a good amount of people (not all) on that continent seem to know everything and like to measure things in bananas, football fields, statue of liberties instead of the metric system lol.

      M35 Aftermarket Fuel Pump

      By dawhitehonky · Posted

      I assume the modules are similar enough, so if you've had no issues I don't see why I would. I have tried to find a wiring diagram for the FPCM / fuel pump circuit, but I can't find it anywhere. Otherwise, I would just do some wire cutting and joining at the FPCM and give the 12 V supplied to the FPCM directly to the pump instead. If you know anyone that could help with wiring diagrams, I'd be very happy

      If it dies, then bypass. The task isn't difficult. I have one running on a standard R32 FPCM. That's after nearly 20 years of it running an 040, which pull substantially more current than the Walbro. They're not the same module, but I'd hope it indicates that the R33 one should be man enough for the job. I think people kill them when putting proper sized pumps on them, not these little toy pumps we're talking about here.

      Silicone spray won't hurt anything. And if it does, that's an opportunity to put some solid steel spherical bushings in, so you can really learn what suspension noise sounds like, If you're going to try it, just spray one bush at a time, so you can work out which one is actually noisy. My best guess is that if the noise started only since putting the coilovers in, then it is just noise being transmitted up through the top mounts of the struts, and not necessarily "new" noise from bushes. But it's almost impossible to know.
