its on the CA damo! anyone got a stock CA18det sump laying around (dale) hehe..

and need urgently a Small FMIC like the jjr one.. dont have the time to wait for it to come!

Get on the phone to jap wreckers!

I had a big dent in my sump on the 32 when I had it, I just put in a bit extra oil till it was just above full on the dip stick - the dent made it look fuller then it was.

lol dude read that and have a think about it...

what did i miss since page 1337? lol

oh, for anyones entertainment tomorrow. want to see what 60 odd army trucks vs anzac highway looks like, come down to keswick barracks about 2 tomorrow arvo. we're MEANT to be turning right when we leave there.............and SAPOL are going to be stopping traffic

should say there'll be many lols

yep tried.. and nothing..

nothing small enough to fit ne ways!

ruby i think 450 is a tad too wide.. ill measure it up again and get back to u!

how much would u want for it?

As for the sump, post a topic in the WTB section on NS.com. I wouldn't pay more than $50 if that, Infact in the post put that you are looking for a CA sump and you are willing to pay $50 that way you will only have to deal with people that are realistic.

As for the intercooler, that is the size that i'm running except mine is 76mm thick;

AJD? Didn't know that was your car. I would've said hi otherwise.

I think I misquoted. Mine might also be 76mm thick. Originally got that size to fill the Dayz bar. But now I have the typeM bar, I needed a bigger cooler to fill it ... so I got a Cooling Pro item :)

Adrian, check your measurements and allow a further 150mm for the end tanks etc on top of the 450mm. If it suits you, I'd be after $120 for the cooler ... its lightly sprayed in satin black btw.

Anyone know how to remove the factory oil pressure switch?

nvm just worked out that there's a 17mm size nut holding it in on the other side...

good f**king luck getting to it for me though, don't have a long enough spanner nor size 3 Japanese hands to get in there.

hey all need some help! i am about to re insure my car but was reading the fine print saying that all mods must be roadworthy, legal and written on the document, so my power fc which is covered on the document isnt considered legal (is it?) nor is the turbo timer ect ect, so does this mean that i wont b covered?

anyone know what prices i should be paying for new leads and a belt kit for my corolla at all?

changed the spark plugs today and the leads are looking a bit worst for wear and so is one of the belts.

but steve that was thru Just car insurance and i know a sh*t load of people with jap cars thru them with mods like 80 % of people on here, like power fc's ect they say on the forms (new computer/ ecu) which is what they r but then in sa there considered illegal so does that mean that them putting it on there site is just to make people think they will b covered or what?

yeah Chris cant answer that one i would depend on the assessor on the day and all sorts of contributing factors

i was making a point that if they deem that mod to of caused the accident its highly likely they will void your insurance

insurance is like a lottery your dammed if you do and dammed if your dont

just cars seem to pay even if its got illegal mods, i know someone that came off the road on a corner with coil overs, ecu, external fuel pump shit, illegal turbo setup do i need to list the rest of the shit. it still got covered they gave him the agreed 10k i think it was and then sold his wreck.

would depend on how much they in for and circumstances of the crash. if you are completely at fault hit 3 ferrari's and did 100k of damage to gov property i dare say they will try to play the illegal mods card to get out of having to cover you. if you talking just a 8k write off + they can get some back for your wrecked car when they sell it. then its prob in their interest to pay for publicitys sake.

Mate of mine wrote off his R33 in a sidestreet went straight into a curb thing that sticks out (it jumped out at him out of nowhere)... he was with Just Car, no mods listed, write off, he was at fault... he received his payout from them - near $20k.

    • Stock RB fuel pressure is near enough 43.5 psi, so the latency in that table at 31.6 will be close. You can see that 7 or 8 psi equates to about 0.4µs extra latency. So if you wanted to interpolate between the 31.6 and 39.9 psi values you could say you're going up about 2 psi out of those 8, so add about 0.1µs, which is barely worth talking about and is quite possibly wrong because ideally you would fix the latency while running at the appropriate conditions on the dyno, with a wideband sniffing its butt.
    • The pressure, is what you set the fuel pressure to. If you have the factory fuel reg, you'll need to find the factory spec. I don't know it off the top of my head, but someone else might.
    • For others, what GTSBoy states here should be paid attention. Why? Well lots of people play with different engines, and they LOVE to change things like remove AC, or steering pumps etc, and it lends to them needing to move the tensioner too. You want your tensioner, particularly those that are sprung or hydraulically tensioned, to be the first thing after the harmonic balancer, or technically the "last" pulley in the chain. By saying last pulley, I mean look at the direction the crank spins when the engine is running, follow the belt from where the crank is pulling the belt FROM, and keep following that until you're between the last pulley/accessory on the belt and about to reach the crank again, this is the spot where you put the tensioner. This is the area that will always end up with slack. This is worked out exactly the same way for chains too, as the physics is the same for them. The crank pulley is where all the force to drag the belt around comes from. You will never ever get rid of the slack that appears, especially under load. The tensioners job is to keep the belt loose enough when stationary that there shouldn't be out of sync movement in slow movement, and then be tight enough when running, that the belt can't jump off any gear and get damaged. Too tight, bad things happen, too loose, bad things happen. Have a tensioner (mainly sprung/hydraulic one) in the wrong spot, it can't actually do anything about keeping the tension.
