May as well update with some vids from DECA at the end of Feb, I had a ball:

(slow because it was my first time out).

(again slow because I'm new at it. It's still not as slow as it looks on video.)

(lots of flutters, this was my favourite course.)

There were more runs but they weren't all video'ed. Enjoy.

New mods purchased for the Poosar:

N15 S2 SSS Steering Wheel (leather goodness)

I couldn't keep my hands still and the interior hasn't been cleaned for two years, but you get the idea;

From this:

To this:

Size comparison :D

And still to install:

2x N15 S2 SSS Front Seatbelts (to replace my seatbelts that stopped retracting years ago)

2x N15 S2 SSS Sun Visors (passenger side has a mirror which was the reason I grabbed them)

2x N15 S2 SSS front indicators (to replace the dodgy de-Orange job I did on my current indicators a few years back that have now started leaking in water.)

Thanks for the kind words mate. But to to tell you the truth, I've spent nothing on it except for maintenance and making it a little more stock. It's really only got a couple of minor mods.

As a lot of Melbourne members know, I crashed my car at the last SAU VIC DECA. If anyones curious I'll post pics, it's been undergoing a facial reconstruction at the hands of my very capable panelbeater. In the meantime I'm collecting some upgrades for her:

N15 SSS 28mm front swaybar, Whiteline end-link bushes, D-bushes and steering rack mount bushes.

Some progress pics of the repairs:

A little bent but still usable:

Both the air-con condenser and radiator are a bit U-Shaped but I think I'll leave them as is, they're not leaking.

New rad support in:

Starting to get a face again:

She should be painted and back in my hands later this week.

Tow truck...what a completely familiar home:

Driving it home from the panelbeater wasn't to be. That little drip from the radiator turned into a torrent. Thank god for accurate gauges though, no damage done as I managed to pull over as soon I saw the temperature gauge shoot up 30'C in a matter of seconds. Didn't get to use any of the three bottles of water I brought with me. I made the towies journey a whole 2km shorter because that's as far as I managed to drive it :lol:

So while she was bleeding her fluids and I waited for the tow truck I got some quick snaps with my phone. She's absolutely filthy, so ignore that.

A few little changes - black eyelids, black number plates and removed the JDM number plate tabs from the boot and welded the holes up. On Monday she'll get a new radiator then I'll be focusing my attention on the brakes. There are a couple of small issues, the bumper I had reconditioned is warped on one side so it sags under the headlight. I'll probably replace it in future but for the moment it'll do. My air-con condenser is still a bit bent and a thermo fan has chunks missing from the blades but both work so I may just leave them for the moment.

    • I thought that might be the case, thats what I'll start saving for. Thanks for the info 
    • Ps i found the below forum and it seems to be the same scenario Im dealing with. Going to check my ECU coolant temp wire tomorrow    From NICOclub forum: s1 RB25det flooding at start up Thu Apr 11, 2013 7:23 am I am completely lost on this. Car ran perfectly fine when I parked it at the end of the year. I took the engine out and painted the engine bay, and put a fuel cell with an inline walbro 255 instead of the in tank unit I had last year. After reinstalling everything, the engine floods when the fuel pump primes. if i pull the fuel pump fuse it'll start, and as soon as I put the fuse back in it starts running ridiculously rich. I checked the tps voltage, and its fine. Cleaned the maf as it had some dust from sitting on a shelf all winter, fuel pressure is correct while running, but wont fire until there is less than 5psi in the lines. The fuel lines are run correctly. I have found a few threads with the same problem but no actual explanation of what fixed it, the threads just ended. Any help would be appreciated.

I found the problem though. There was a break in one of the ecu coolant temp sensor wires. Once it was repaired it fired right up with no problems. I would have never thought a non working coolant temp sensor would have caused such an issue.
    • Hi sorry late reply I didnt get a chance to take any pics (my mechanics on the other side of the city) but the plugs were fouled from being too rich. I noticed the MAF wasn't genuine, so I replaced it with a genuine green label unit. I also swapped in a different ignitor, but the issue remains. I've narrowed it down a bit now: - If I unplug and reconnect the fuel lines and install fresh spark plugs, the car starts right up and runs perfectly. Took it around the block with no issues - As soon as I shut it off and try to restart, it won't start again - Fuel pressure while cranking is steady around 40 psi, injectors have good spray, return line is clear, and the FPR vacuum is working. It just seems like it's getting flooded after the first start I unplugged coolant sensors to see if its related to ECU flooding but that didnt make a difference. Im thinking its related to this because this issue only started happening after fixing coolant leaks and replacing the bottom part of the stock manifolds coolant pipe. My mechanic took off the inlet to get to get to do these repairs. My mechanics actually just an old mate who's retired now so ill be taking it to a different mechanic who i know has exp with RBs to see if they find anything. If you have any ideas please send em lll give it a try. Ive tried other things like swapping the injectors, fuel rail, different fuel pressure regs, different ignitor, spark plugs, comp test and MAF but the same issue persists.
    • My return flow is custom and puts the return behind the reo, instead of at the bottom. All my core is in the air flow, rather than losing some of it up behind the reo. I realise that the core really acts more as a spiky heatsink than as a constant rate heat exchanger, and that therefore size is important.... but mine fits everything I needed and wanted without having to cut anything, and that's worth something too. And there won't be a hot patch of core up behind the reo after every hit, releasing heat back into the intake air.
    • There is a really fun solution to this problem, buy a Haltech (or ECU of your choice) and put the MAF in the bin.  I'm assuming your going to want more power in future, so you'll need to get the ECU at some stage. I'd put the new MAF money towards the new ECU.
