Did you get it all through Outlaw's Dave?

hey all.

does anyone have an account with motor traders? can get cheap parts?

need 4x hec716 (ls1 coilpacks)

going external setup on the CA18det..

if anyone has hook ups let me know :P

also,

took my car to get some work done/oil cooler fitted. picked up the car and oil cooler lines were cut to "make them fit better (too long apparently)"

once they were cut the workshop couldnt get fittings to go on them so now i have an oil cooler with cut lines and nothing to connect them with..

what can i do? claim them against the business?

cheers

You won't be able to claim against the workshop as they will say that the problem was caused by the cheap lines. if they had provided the parts then you would have a claim. bring the lines to me and i'll get the fittings on them.

Gotta love the justice system.

The police caught the guy who broke into my parents rental property, got locked up but then released on bail a day later. Found out he was released last week on bail for beating a guy up. They can't lock him up for longer as this offence is totally different to the others.

What a load of shit.

Hey guys I have a quick question, I did search and did find an answer but I just wanted to see if anyone has a difference of opinion. If I am fitting aftermarket CF N1 Vents to an aftermarket FG bar, what is the best method of holding them in there?

Cheers :)

nice big plume of black smoke across the northern burbs - pgs (plastics granulating factory) has caught fire in kilburn

i could see the plume from semaphore... 30 metre tall flames as i drove past.... fireys are worried cos there are lpg tanks nearby and folks have been evacuated from their houses... looks like every cop in adelaide is down there

sooooo

go for a cruise if you're bored, they got bigger fish to fry tonite lols

-D

Unfortunately, thats a (fair) case of innocent until proven guilty. Until the court case prosecutes him, any further (accused) offences are to be treated without prejudice. Why cop the second offence harshly is you're innocent of the first offence?

Thats just the way things work.

I know what you mean tho. A close friend was killed in an auto accident by a crim who was on bail for murder at the time. His first offence (altho prosecuted for it) was not taken into consideration in sentencing him for killing my friend. He got 7 months added onto his already 7 years (for murder)!!! So he basically got a freebie before going to jail. FAIL

    • I seem to the be only person that is using a Haltech 2500 on an NA motor, I've installed a Bosch DBW throttle body to the OEM intake manifold and am having problems maintaining AFR even with the wideband o2.  It will run extremely rich at idle and up to redline, but under load it will go extremely lean in the 20s and i'm essentially having to rev it over 4k and feather the clutch to get it up to speed.  I've read a few other threads of about the butterfly, it seems removing the vacuum to it is supposed to have it remain open, i've noticed no difference under 4k with the vacuum line to it plugged.  I'm hoping someone here has had luck using the NA manifold with Haltech, and if they happen to have a tune for it.  
    • I don't know any details, but I really wouldn't be surprised if they do it as a LHD only version, at least initially.
    • Thanks for the replies everyone. Definitely a coolant push. Oil catch can is empty and always has been. As the engine is out now I'll be having a good look over things. I do have some detonation on the piston tops from a trigger issue back about 5 years ago. I felt it and shut off then bought a new ecu and changed the trigger. Never been an issue since. It never hurt the power, its made almost 80hp more since that incident but I will pull the bearing caps to take a look. If the bearings are damaged I will do a bottom end refresh. Head is being re conditioned at the moment and the block will be cleaned and checked to ensure it's flat. I'll go with a kameari gasket and see how it ends up. The other thing I'm not super keen on is the cylinder colours. I suspect this is from the inlet manifold. The plan will be to put it back together, retune and then stick a plazmaman billet inlet on it and retune. I'm happy with the power, if it makes a little more, then great, but I would rather just make everything more efficient at this stage.
    • Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...
    • Does it also misfire equally when revving?   Josh is very correct in what you should do. The coilpack harness wiring loom itself is a known problem due to its age and the number of heat cycles it has gone through. Throwing parts at a vehicle to diagnose the issue isn't a smart or good way to do it. Secondly, you may have a bad coil pack, you pop replacements in, they fix that issue, but messing with the harness breaks it, so the issue persists. So now you think "well it wasn't the coil packs" and have to continue chasing your tail, potentially swapping back in your shit coil packs and returning the good ones (yes, I've seen people do this because 'it wasn't the problem' and they want to save money). And suddenly, you've got two issues with the same symptoms...   Diagnose, don't use the spare parts shotgun.
