Hey Jess,

Sorry i missed you Saturday night a villies!! =( i came by, but it was too late and everyone had left or was leaving

Car is good, just trying to finalise all the upgrades/service/mods im looking to do to it.

Crank collar looks like its going to be WAY too expensive, so its looking like N1 pump + improved pickup (the boostworx mod i was talking about) + sump baffel + Cam Cover Baffle Plate and i already have catch can(s)

then im also looking at suspension upgrade, boost controller, cam gears and 100,000km service. so just a little bit of work on the car =)

dont you just love tax time?? =D

Aww you came past!! Would of been nice to see you again! ;)

Really crank collar is to expensive :) Good stuff on the other mods..haha your going to run two catch cans? ;)

OoOoO What suspension you thinking? There are some really nice boost controllers in for sale section right now and not badly priced either I love the Blitz one

haha yes I do!!!

Crank Collar mean removing engine from the car so the crank can be taken out and machined, hence lotsa $$$ (well, lots more $). and i think there is at least 1 (possibly 2) catch cans in the car already

where are these boost controllers that you speak of? i'm looking at the profec b spec II

suspension is just minor upgrades, caster, rear camber and front and rear sway bars

after all that is done, i think i'll be happy enough withthe condition of the car to look at taking it out to a few track days

hmmm bummer!

Oh little one you must use the force of the "search button" in for sale section private parts "boost controllers" and they all come up -there is a profec b there for cheap but has a busted solonoid ;)

CRD was selling them $375 delivered in there trade section! :)Greddy Profec B

You will feel the difference! haha should see how much negative camber I run on the front..awesome for trackdays not so good for street use ;) but dont matter cause basically a track car only now

OMG YAY!! will be nice to see you on the track!

brrrr i'm so cold :)

i got a call from 1 of the midwives, to see how i'm doing haha

there making an appointment for me so i can go talk to them

Yeah, I wish it would warm up, even a little.

Good luck with your appointments and all. You'll now find out how everyone is an expert in birth and being a parent. Have fun filtering thru all the bs. ;) If in doubt, talk to the real moms, like Kell.

thanks ;)

haha it probably won't be fun talking about it but aleast i'll get it out

ahh you know we're not Amercia right?? Mom is Mum here in Australia ;)

going to lay-by this pram i saw, i think it looks good and comfy :) haha

oh, you mean second hand stuff.... no ways, prefer to buy new and isn't $375 a bit on the expensive side? =P

YES -ve camber FTMFW!!!!! I figured that i should really do the crazy driving on the track and keep it safe/off the roads, i just didn't want to do it till i knew a lot more about the condition of the car

this just in!

my car just randomly stalled... twice? stopped at the lights... revs dropped and stalled, started it and did the same thing?

i had aready been driving my car for about 15 minutes previous to this no worries.

only difference is i didnt warm it up before i drove it. i normally warm it up for about 2-3 minutes. could that be the problem?

this has happened b4, and i thought it was a fuel issue so i changed the fuel filter.

any ideas?

    • The downside of this is when you try to track the car, as soon as you hit ABS you get introduced to a unbled system. I want to avoid this. I do not want to bleed/flush/jack up the car twice just to bleed the f**kin car.
    • But again, the engineers said your cast aluminium would be fine based on the load that would be stretching that section. Same load stretching the bolts in a flex (not the twist), with a much smaller cross sectional area than the original part you've broken. It's why you'd need to be using higher strength bolts, but that's just making up for the strength you lose with less area...
    • I am truly amazed someone on this planet was able to cycle the pump using a scan tool. I've always ghetto cycled them on Nissan 90s shit boxes by slamming the brakes and pulling the handbrake to agitate the rear wheels enough to cause a speed difference
    • I didn't actually try it at the time but a Launch X431 with the appropriate software licenses/upsell will have the ABS bleed function. The Consult II you can still find some old sets of equipment but they're really, really expensive:   
    • Well I'll start by saying I'm not an engineer. I am going to go with the KiwiCNC ones.  They are made of 7050 alloy have good fillets and radius.  The material alone is in the order of double the strength and fatigue resistance - Those bolts, once torqued correctly place most of the load at the flat face of the mating surface - the 'stretch' you're talking about through torqueing them up would be far more than the extra stretch 'load' placed on them from a steering input or bump. (in my opinion) so I doubt they would flinch.    - but again "not an engineer".      oh and I don't think stitch welding 7050 is a good idea, likely just weaken the material (from what I read)
