anyone know whats happening around South rd/cross rd. Got a 7news chopper in the sky just wondering around.

EDIT: dont worry, burst water main in the middle of the rd has blown a hole in the rd lol

just came thru there coming back from Damos, 5 biker cops with laser, pulling up people for speeding over 25, had all of them looking at me like fresh meat in a lions cage, not speeding but arms length from my car with damos old front bar occupying the pass seat and back seat lol... made it thru the cage unmolested, heart was racing out of my chest, thought for sure I was done..lol

oh and it looks like they will have the road fixed up for rush hour in am, blew a hole near the caltex food mart south bound side

thanks again damo , your rims are pure porn mate :ermm:

Hey guys, I was wondering if anyone can explain to me the process of "importing" a car from interstate? Thanks in advance :ermm:

i got my 34 from interstate

fresh from japan...went to melb.....the guy did all the complaince work over there.........drive her over to adelaide.......went to regency for full check......passed.......went and got her registered lol

Heres a brain teaser - problem with my daily:

Its a 1981 Toyota Corona CS

- cold start it struggles to stay on

- accelerator to the floor just to get it to idle - otherwise it would conk out if I let go

- idle while doing the above isnt stable - like its surging - sometime it conks out and have to repeat the above

- after a minute, it must of warmed up, it idles fine without accelerating

- chuck it into gear there is a high probability of it conking out and having to repeat everything above - but it doesnt take as long as when turning it on the first time

- first couple minutes of driving, accelerator is down to the floor and the car is just putting along at walking pace then it gains enough power and revs normal and is all good

Its about a 5 minute battle to keep it on every morning lol

- recently started happening when the other week the car just wouldnt start, before that the car started first time everytime and drove fine, after that day that it wouldnt turn on its been problematic ever since

- to get the car going again the points in the distributor was replaced, alternator replaced and a new battery but somehow the problem mentioned above arises

Anyone got suggestions on what could be wrong?

got the wheels on the Keto.

was lucky enough to get a really helpfull guy in repco, that sourced some wheel nuts that are nissan shape, but have toyota thread (even security nuts!)

pls ignore how filthy the old girl is... im busy saving the murray

I take it its a carbie ?, the choke is stuck, the idle circuit it dirty, air filter dirty? dirty PCV ?, vacuum leaks from dizzy to manifold, carbie vacuum advance ?

get some carb cleaning and hose it down with a fast idle after it warms up, problem solvered if its carbie, and carb doesnt need rebuild

Yeap its carby, just googled it up and I reckon carby cleaner sounds like a plan - will give that a try tomorrow. Cheers :D wish the R33 was as simple and cheap to rectify problems lol

bet the throttle body is black inside, but should be kinda bronze coloured. just warm up the engine, after taking the air cleaner lid off, hold it at about 2k rpm and spray inside the throat of carbie, motor will try to stall, stop spraying for a min, then repeat till clean, whats left of carbie cleaner wash off the outside of carbie.

and pcv valve and put it back in. after it cools off, look to see if the plate in carb is free, top one is choke. the little holes are the vents to float bowl, and idle curcuit, if you see raw fuel pouring/sputtering out of vents in carb, you have other problems in carb.

also can be a bad electric choke?

check vacuum line to dizzy advance, plugged in?

hope that helps mate :D

safety note, do not put your face over carbie, if it backfires, you will get a face full of fire

Awesome! just what i wanted to here after installing them in my car :D

lol, this cop was a cock to be polite about it

goin to fix it tomorrow after work, went for a drive about 8:30 down to caltex at st marys. sitting at the sturt / south rd lights, get a tap on my left window

same cop

"so, you've still got those blue lights in hey"

"ermm, ive got until friday to fix it" *casual grin on my face*

"oh...........................................................okay then" *flips his visor back down

LOL

listening too now not bad

what you use to make them

Mainly use fruity loops studio8 producer edition.

Editing is usually done with sony soundforge.

couple other smaller programs too.

its annoying because I cant upload any longer songs. or songs with more detail as they are more than 10mb.

CD will be made soon tho

    • Hi from Canada, Both of my calipers are starting to fail. My car is a 2005 M35 Stagea ARX and I can't seem to find any parts or any cross reference caliper that would fit my car. Is there a company or a similar caliper that would fit and I could replace the OEM one. Or if anyone knows where I can find a new OEM. Any help is very appreciated. Let me know!
    • Maf is a question mark but TPS  I have set at 0.47, the fact that I’m getting proper voltage range out of it with the key on leads me to believe it’s functioning properly. I’m getting proper voltages on basically everything. I still need to look up voltage ranges for z32 maf and test that 
    • Honestly no not at all, but it’s a very basic tune, it’s stock injectors q45 tps and z32 maf. Other than that it’s a completely stock base map. The file is from nistune and from my understanding if it was tune related I would be able to unplug maf and tps and it would still start even if it was a really shitty start. I have tried starting it with coolant temp, maf, and tps unplugged none of those 3 togethor or individually changes anything

    • What does it look like with highway driving? And yes, I had a similar thought as Duncan. It looks quite similar in my Stagea and I have made myself accept it as normal. Might have to look into it some day   Highway gets as low as 10l/100km on my end so I'm not as worried about it being a mechanical issue. More likely just the tune on the haltech.
