hehe...yer, its a bit like that :D

Rang up yesterday. I was expecting a few weeks, but Con said mine should be ready sometime next week! woot! I was expecting 3 weeks or something, so pretty happy its a lot less than i expected. Hopefully its all sweet and as good as when i bought it (if not better)

They cut me a good deal on my grill and bumper, so that is all getting done too at the same time. Finally no more greyness !

  • 3 weeks later...
  • 3 weeks later...

need to go and visit and see how my babys going... need to see if they can get it done in the next couple of weeks... i need my car back the soarers driving me mental!! but at the sametime still fun to drive :)

Hey you're not driving a falcon that won't go above about 40km/hr up a hill, the head gasket is probably about to bust at any moment, and well I hate holding up traffic!! that is NOT fun anymore :)

My mate was in hysterics when he drove it the other day :)

Mine should be back in a few days I think.. go remind them to chase up that suspension place where it is atm!

its outside their shop without the front bar man i pass it every day :) i am going down tomorow to see when mines going to be ready.... i want it back :)

will ask con about ur one gords :)

Gordon - was just down at palm... my car should hopefully be ready in 2 weeks max :( ur car however is waiting on the front bar... suspensions been done its been sitting and waiting for a few days cause the front bar is ***t man.

there are cracks all thru it which will show up thru the entire paint job and con says he doesnt really want to paint it and have it leaving there looking like that. Honestly man id get a new front bar... maybe not something as low as that either... or just get a new 400r bar i spose... but the one thats their doesnt look crash hot.

hehe shes outside enjoying the sunshine :) very shiney i must say... dropped off the mesh and my car will be ready by next week... i cant go down until next friday anyways so thats whe i will be picking her up... give her the thrashing she so loves and then parking it for another 2 weeks until i pay my rego :D

hehe hey pred i seen ya car again today... looks pretty much the same :( theres a nice 350z down there now and im pretty sure i seen the rear end of my car.. which looked painted :D might pop down before work and take a look :D

    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack. 
    • Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
    • In my head it does make sense to be a fuel problem since that is what I touched when cleaning the system. When I was testing with the fuel pressure gauge, the pressure was constantly 2.5 bar with the FPR vacuum removed. When stalling, the pressure was going up to 3.0 bar (which is how it should be on ignition).
    • ECUtalk pages don't mention they support the ABS computer (consult port has more than one CAN), so you might just need a different scan tool. But, I would expect ABS is a different light to the brake warning/handbrake light, do you see an ABS light come on for a few seconds when you turn the key from ACC to IGN? But since you said: I'd have a look at the ABS sensors in the rear hubs to make sure they are not damaged, disconnected etc.
    • OK, if it idles at 1000+ with the AAC, its not an idle airflow problem. The cold start valve just gives extra air when the engine is cold, but you have enough air without it to idle at 1000. I think you are back to a fuel problem, sorry. Can you see the fuel pressure staying constant or does it drop as the revs drop to a stall?
