thats not too much... i need to get the front bumper resprayed asap so I can add a few finishing touches of my own before fitting it back up :P

this is what I did...

the blue/shiny bits will be hidden behind the bumper - though it looks nice like that with the bumper off the blue and the bling breaks off the black nicely haha

I was considering painting just the piping but photoshopped it thought it looked a bit odd so I did the whole thing heat resistant black, no primer - will black mesh off the middle section and wrap the pipes in something else black I reckon coz not sure how well the paints going to hold up on the sides there - the chrome hardly stayed shiny with rocks and bugs flying at it!

well steve/damo pretty sure you guys were right about the AFMs. im about to pull them off and have a look now. My car cut out 3 times on the way home from work, pretty scary lol

booked into the mechanics tomorrow morning, hopefully they can make heads or tails of it.

Quick question, anyone know if turbotune are open saturdays? Or even boostworx? Even if the car can be dropped off on a saturday and moved around the back or whatever to be worked on/looked at on the monday..

ah joel you dont need to take it somewhere (where are you taking it)

go see Wally @ Z-imports next to Roccla Besser @ ottoway grand junction rd when i was there 1.5 months ago he had 2 gtr AFM's like 60-80$ ea. from memory get them and that should sort your problems

Jarrad - boostworx is sometimes open on saturdays but i dont think he answers the phone not sure about turbotune maybe ring tomorrow and organise your drop off

Thanks guys, and girl. Might give them a call tomorrow, dont know when its going to be dropped off as yet, its being driven the night we go to pick our hoodies up. May be safe booking it in early september. Ill decide tomorrow.

DTM are out of stock in 18 x 9.5 +15 :whistling: gotta wait for their other stock to sell before access get new ones (ie they have to sell the 18x7.5 +45's etc :D ) might look at the Origin DNA01's....

    • Say you've just laid all your filler and your about to start sanding, how large is the sanding block your using?  Like a high fill primer? Technically possible but would be a nightmare. Just guessing from the photo, but they look small enough that you might get away with using a 1k spot putty. Normally you'd use something like this on pinholes but with the type of project you're working on I'd give it a go. 
    • Omg Brake pedal removal.. FML!!
    • I mean, I can confirm the TPS is at 100%.... I can confirm when we installed the TB and setup the cable that the TB was indeed fully open at max pedal travel.. the same 'curve' (WRT MAP vs MAP) existed with the previous setup/TB/manifold as well... No, we did not do a run with no intake connected. I would love to go back in time to do such a run to rule out the intake. It would have also been good to do a run with the airbox lid off. There's a test there where increased IAT vs more available air could be a positive tradeoff. I remember taking the lid off my R34 Turbo setup back in the day and noticing a monster increase, even if IAT's did go up. Could be similar. Hard to test unless I find a very deserted road. 
    • That's actually encouraging to be honest. my motor was rebuild many years ago but it's probably done less than 30,000kms and fucc all limiter or drift, majority street / drag / roll racing. It'll be fine 💪🏼 I don't even have lines or a can for the cam breathers installed yet, there is zero oil residue or splatter on or around them, it drives beautifully so it seems healthy. Just a ticky lifter, yet they're almost brand new oem genuine Nissan and haven't done many kms at all...
    • Have you confirmed the throttle body goes to WOT (and stays there) during the run?
