Hmmmm.... I leave for one day and my performance thread has tax advice on it..... hmmmmm

oh well that is cool with me....

Hey that was a good night thursday night...

I had a blast...

I don't know about that dude in the GTiR though... I promise you I didn't rev my motor and he still did a limiter launch... silly boy you should know that if I don't race there is something wrong cause I will race anything that moves if the cops ain't around... oh well expensive lesson I suppose...

Hey at our prime garage spank was cruising with 13 Cars... that is a good effort for just a little get together for Tone on the virginal run of the Cosmo...

Man that thing goes... although I am keen for a rematch... hell I might have to throw some more money at my car...

Actually at least I did that commodore over... crappy VL turbos... Although apparently that is a nice one... I even had time to pull the clutch in and grab some more revs to race him... that is almost ashame... but that is what you get for owning a barge that doesn't have a V8 (just thought I better recognize that Vals have the fat ass... although at 1380 Kg... they are lighter than Jays Taxi!! )

Actually if my 'cooler turns up in time I might have to go on the 16th... my car is like twice as fast at night than it is in the day... A nice cool August day and a nice shiny new intercooler could be the perfect thing for some fun and games at the track...

Dev I am bulk keen to see how you go at the Drags... these All Wheel Drive things shouldn't have to much traction trouble... not to much skill involved.... what is it.... limiter.... dump.... at least it looks like you got skills... I'm hearing those magical no. Dev 12.99 that is a 12 in anyone's books...

actually I am hoping it won't take to much to talk Tone into running... I would think it will run a low 13 now... he beat me by a car lenght and has a heap more in tuning to go yet... so that should be good if we can get it sorted for the 16th...

the problem is all these people that are so worried about everyone else that they won't go to the drags so they can say "oh yeah my car runs the numbers... " but yet they never just have the simple fun of racing... weither it runs 11's or 19's no one really cars as long as you have fun... and that is what I am trying to get Tone to recognise... he is worried that the Cosmo has a Reputation and if it isn't full tuned and running like 12's someone will think it is junk... I say let them think it is Junk but they'd want to be packing one hell of a peice of machinery to top him on the street after some more little tuning mods...

And I really want to see these preludes run as well... I like the VTEC motors... I raced a 1.6 VTEC Civic when my Silvia was still non-turbo... I beat it... but it was still cool... 1.6 and it never left my door... pretty impressive.... although Boost is better...

Anyway Emma is having a House Warming Party tonight so I better go do the right thing... I hope to see you all there... I will need your help to drink the BEER... there is like so much of it... she really put alot of effort in so I hope you all have fun...

anyway guys have fun and keep it smoking...

I WILL GET THAT ROTOR NEXT TIME... NEXT TIME TONY, NEXT TIME

Hi everyone it really was a great night last night. Kingy you should have come and pulled up with us, that was what we where waiting for.

Oh yeah dudes, just thought I'd share Marshall's and Hoary's idea with you all. They both reckon that you need "HSV: I JUST SPANKED ONE" stickers, LOL, go the spank crew!

    • Is the panel filter one that is oiled? Have you ever cleaned or touched the AFM?
    • So.... the K&N air box thingo was too big, ended up gifting it to a mate, well, by gifting it he actually supplied food and beer at the pub,  which was nice, as it will not sit on a shelf in the garage for the next 10 years I did trim up some of the existing stuff to neaten it all up and gave it some wrinkle paint, unfortunately it currently has a used and abused mish mash of different types of hose clamps, 4 big fat T bolt type (shit), and a few normal clamps of vairing sizes and brands, but..... only until the 6 constant tension black worm clamps that I ordered from EFI solutions turn up next week Currently the current hose clamps are triggering me hard, LOL Is this the final version, probably not, I really want just 2 silicone pieces, a straight bit of silicone from the filter to the MAF is easy and will happen as soon as I head into Just Jap tomorrow, the problematic part is a 30° silicone bend from the MAF to the TB that I can connect the engine breather from the head, I found that there are bulk head fittings for boat bilge pumps that should work, but until I can get a 30° silicone bend the alloy pipe, and the 11ty thousand hose clamps, are there for the foreseeable future 4 hose clamps are golden, 6 are grudgingly acceptable, the 8 currently holding it all together is just taking the piss    I've also ordered 60 more retaining wall blocks for the front yard, I mis-gonculated the height that was required to get above the base of the Photinia's (red robin's) that are the hedge behind the front fence, currently it is 2 blocks high, and about 1/2 a block short, so going 3 blocks high will be above the base of the red robin's, and allow some room for mulch
    • It is the stock air box with the panel filter. Everything else is stock except the exhaust at this point, as I also went back to the cleaned 270cc injectors. I will check the RPM when the IACV is unplugged and report back.
    • As MBS suggested if this is happening when the engine is cold you're going to want to remove the intake air regulator and verify resistance + that the shutter is physically opening and closing. At -20C should be fully open, 20C half open, over 60C fully closed. At 20C should be 70-80 ohms. For AAC valve testing using a Consult cable see if you can raise and lower the idle by commanding more or less AAC duty cycle. Hopefully it's pretty linear as well, shouldn't be like 30% AAC valve is barely idling and 40% is 1500 rpm.
