Spotted Madaz saving my life this arvo by picking up and delivering to me up a vital brake line component that I snapped, rendering my car undrivable.

Thanks a million mate!!!!!!

Luke - no need to be sorry bud - it's all good!

Good to see Steve pulled through! If you had called me 30 mins prior I would have been able to help out. Thought you were gonna have a "boys day" for the brakes anyways?

Spotted a nice silver 33 GTS-t near my place on Grenfel Rd this arvo, BB plates from memory

That was me, spotted your car a mile away. I was just leaving motor reg with my new plates :)

thought it might have been you,,, i get to visit rego in the am... joy... more money out to my fav's

That could be me but i drive the actual car as i live south and drive the 32 :)

might have been you,, i drive in a daze/haze sometimes... lol

I work with a chick who drives a yellow fully kitted fluro coloured 33. Might of been her.

its a full on yellow car, think it has the inside done up too? someone should ask her to join in SAU, good car for shows. more girls in the club etc

Yeah mate I was, but the pads were down to metal n metal when I braked hard on the front passenger side, so since I had a bit of free time today thought I'd put in the QFM HPX front pads I had sitting around. Then I thought - well if I am going to have the calipers off, then I might as well chuck on the rotors. Then I busted the hard barke line between the rotor and the brake line, so I thought I might as well put the set of braided lines on I had sitting around. Then I thought I might as well do the rears as well.

So 9.5 hours and many grazed knuckes later, here I am.

So, today I did:

- Fitted front RDA slotted/passivated rotors (couldn't get rear rotors off - was 11pm by the time I got to them and didn't want to make the noise)

- Fitted front QFM HPX pads

- Fitted front and rear ADR compliant braided brake lines

- Flushed entire brake system with Motul Dot5 and refilled/bled

- Painted all calipers gold

Result is below

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
