Jus thought I'd let anyone know that the Motokhana in the K-Mart car park in Gladstone is on this Sunday starting from about 9 or 10 am. If anyone wants to come down, let me know. Otherwise enjoy your cruise dudes. It's sounds like it's going to be really good.

It would be awsome to change the cruise from Yeppoon to Gladstone... would anyone be interested in going to Gladdy instead for this Motokhana... it would be interesting... although it is tuff finding enough fuel to get there and back...

tell me what you all think??

or does it stay as a beach run??

Rick do you reckon you could organise the beach boys for a cruise to Gladrock??

Hmm... I really have to do something about my info on www.garagespank.tk

it's just that the plans for it are nothing like what I was going to do to it a couple of months ago... Although atleast it does have a T28 on it... to bad it isn't a S15 turbo... but it still a big upgrade from the CA turbo that was on it...

Actually is anyone interested in rising rate fuel pressure regulators... I want to order in a batch of these AMOS ones... cheap... different... did I mention cheap...

It's just they come from America so if anyone is interested in this great product... pm me or something just cause I want to order in one for myself and one for Phill's GQ patrol... so while I'm at it... should order in bulk... I'll try to get a price put up on that spank website soon... just so if anyone wants one of these cheap regulators they can call me... either that or they can order them in themselves of course...

the trouble with silvias is their independent front end, they just dont have the articulation or cross up. dont get me wrong, there great on road, but its was the wombat holes in the latest "tuff import challenge" where they come unstuck. but i dont know maybe someone out there has bombed one up with a 24in lift and possibly 38in tyres(not rims). but like i said, i just dont know.

Yeah Brocky Cutter I have done extensive modifications to mine and I still lift a wheel going over a gutter... they just don't seem to have the flex of a full bombed "floating"front end skyline...

although silvias always beat them in the uphill climb... It's a tuff decision but air lockers fix the flex problem...

    • Yeah well per the video it took 15s for the stock unit to start up....even if I give it a few seconds discount for starting that is at least 12 sec before you get a reverse camera if you are trying to leave a park.  The android unit is way faster, but 2016 for the stock unit is a long time ago in consumer electronics
    • Yea that’s why I said ima test them with multimeter and see the reads.
    • Only at idle. Isn’t a problem when rev it seems.
    • @Haggerty This seems silly to ask, but are you confident in your ability to tune the Haltech?  
    • Next on the to-do list was an oil and filter change. Nothing exciting to add here except the oil filter is in a really stupid place (facing the engine mount/subframe/steering rack). GReddy do a relocation kit which puts it towards the gearbox, I would have preferred towards the front but there's obviously a lot more stuff there. Something I'll have to look at for the next service perhaps. First time using Valvoline oil, although I can't see it being any different to most other brands Nice... The oil filter location... At least the subframe wont rust any time soon I picked up a genuine fuel filter, this is part of the fuel pump assembly inside the fuel tank. Access can be found underneath the rear seat, you'll see this triangular cover Remove the 3x plastic 10mm nuts and lift the cover up, pushing the rubber grommet through The yellow fuel line clips push out in opposite directions, remove these completely. The two moulded fuel lines can now pull upwards to disconnect, along with the wire electrical plug. There's 8x 8mm bolts that secure the black retaining ring. The fuel pump assembly is now ready to lift out. Be mindful of the fuel hose on the side, the hose clamp on mine was catching the hose preventing it from lifting up The fuel pump/filter has an upper and lower section held on by 4 pressure clips. These did take a little bit of force, it sounded like the plastic tabs were going to break but they didn't (don't worry!) The lower section helps mount the fuel pump, there's a circular rubber gasket/grommet/seal thing on the bottom where the sock is. Undo the hose clip on the short fuel hose on the side to disconnect it from the 3 way distribution pipe to be able to lift the upper half away. Don't forget to unplug the fuel pump too! There's a few rubber O rings that will need transferring to the new filter housing, I show these in the video at the bottom of this write up. Reassembly is the reverse Here's a photo of the new filter installed, you'll be able to see where the tabs are more clearing against the yellow OEM plastic Once the assembly is re-installed, I turned the engine over a few times to help build up fuel pressure. I did panic when the car stopped turning over but I could hear the fuel pump making a noise. It eventually started and has been fine since. Found my 'lucky' coin underneath the rear seat too The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uLJ65pmQt44&t=6s
