Guys this car has absolutely everything done to it with very very low genuine kms, near new engine, compared to other cars its a steal for the power and the mods im open to offers need this car gone hint hint.....

OMFG I can't believe there hasn't been more interest on this bad boy!!

Look guys this car is fantastic, looks great and goes like the clappers! I'm sure Dan has paperwork for the engine build and everything else he has bought for it just recently!! as stated before the car has everything done and ready to roll.........

SO BUY IT.......LOL

thanks daz hopefully someone comes to there sense soon, theres been cars with similar power outputs for same money but they either dont have a freshly rebuilt motor or they look stock as and have more kms.

Mate ...I would buy it in a heartbeat!

I'm all cashed up too ...but I'm in Perth WA ...and I'm wondering if I'll EVER get this baby through the pits here!!!?????

What do you reckon to my chances? ...have you got any engineering certs for the work done?

This is my first foray into Jap Imports after being a Ford man for years ...man, I LOVE this car!

Can you post up any more pics of the boot and engine bay?

ANY ADVICE ON MY CHANCES OF CLEARING PIT INSPECTION AND REGO HERE IN WA WOULD BE MUCH APPRECIATED GUYS!!!!!!

Call me on 0404 701 035 mate.

Cheers, MARK

Hey mate,

I have no idea i have enquired for qld and all i would have to do is plumb back the screamer which is a 2 min job. It all depends if they look at mods ask in the wa section. If its just the usual brakes, lights etc etc it will pass no worries at all. I dont have engineering certs for it, but in saying that all work has been professionally done and is neat at as. Just have a look at the angine bay below. I will get some pics of the boot for you tonight, basically just a 2 12" subs takes up the boot. I have no worries at all with helping out with shipping ie dropping at a transport yard etc.

    • I normally run with I think a 10mm, and definitely use the second handle you can add to a drill. They hurt when they bins up!   For the crush tube, once all subframe is clear, I'd try some stilsons and see if I can get it to start to twist.
    • Probably because they couldn't, because the use of the variable resistor to create a "signal" in the ECU is managed by the ECU's circuitry. The only way that VDO could do it would be if they made a "smart" sensor that directly created the 0-5V signal itself. And that takes us back to the beginning. Well, in that case, you could do the crude digital (ie, binary, on or off) input that I mentioned before, to at least put a marker on the trace. If you pressed the button only at a series of known integer temperatures, say every 2°C from the start of your range of interest up to whatever you can manage, and you know what temperature the first press was at, then you'd have the voltage marked for all of those temperatures. And you can have more than one shot at it too. You can set the car up to get the oil hot (bypass oil coolers, mask off the air flow to oil coolers, and/or the radiator, to get the whole engine a bit hotter, then give it a bit of curry to get some measurements up near the top of the range.   On the subject of the formula for the data you provided, I did something different to Matt's approach, and got a slightly different linear formula, being Temp = -22.45*V + 118.32. Just a curve fit from Excel using all the points, instead of just throwing it through 2 points. A little more accurate, but not drastically different. Rsquared is only 0.9955 though, which is good but not great. If you could use higher order polynomials in the thingo, then a quadratic fit gives an excellent Rsquared of 0.9994. Temp = 2.1059*V^2 - 34.13*V + 133.27. The funny thing is, though, that I'd probably trust the linear fit more for extrapolation beyond the provided data. The quadratic might get a bit squirrely. Hang on, I'll use the formulae to extend the plots.... It's really big so you can see all the lines. I might have to say that I think I really still prefer the quadratic fit. It looks like the linear fit overstates the temperature in the middle of the input range, and would pretty solidly understate what the likely shape of the real curve would say at both ends.
    • I got a hand held bisssel one and it's a piece of shit. Doesn't work for more than about 5 seconds. So much so that I nearly refuse to believe any wet dry vac actually works or has enough suction to clean the carpet of a car. I'm discouraged as all the good ones are $300+ for an unknown result. I saw MCM did a Ryobi video where they use this thing: https://www.ryobi.com.au/products/stick-vacuum-cleaners/18v-one-hptm-brushless-spot-cleaner-tool-only Anyone have any experience actually using a tool like this when not paid to showcase it?
    • That could very well be the thermistor, but the ECU only sees Volts. VDO don't seem to provide a 0-5 volt curve, only the resistance curve.... (or line).
    • Yes. Probably, given that there is only access from the bottom end of it, go with a drill bit. Don't start too small. 7 or 8mm is probably the right size. You want something that can make a big enough hole to do some damage, but not so bit that it clashes with the steel or binds up and breaks your wrist. A slow speed is probably a good idea too. Once the rubber is destroyed, you then have to get the crush tube off the stud, which will be the whole heat/oil/cutting exercise all over again, but this time with the need to strictly avoid damaging the stud (any further than the corrosion might already have done.
