tough break duncan :D sorry to hear motor# 11ty cried enough. i know you are a glutton for punishment but maybe think about getting the next one done at a different machine shop.... it can't all just be bad luck.. can it?

shame to see you out early too lofty. still you are going to have a ball in that thing when it's sorted. it will make driving your ip spec GTR feel like you have the handbrake stuck on!

:unsure: i've been held captive all weekend

i'll have to drop it off at autosport sometime this week :P

i have to chat to greg about my new motor, and putting it in... ahh i am lazy!

No rush, i have plenty of other crap to keep me occupied atm.

I may want them injectors your selling too.

Duncan seems like the only things to survive the weekend were falcodores. A few rotors let go as well.

Ol Rambows getting a new engine before wakefield now as well, nothing wrong with his old dinosaur plonker but his become greedy and wants more grunt.

You have been using Mike Hanley for sealing??

Edited by Risking
yeah I'm using Mike as well. But we dont bother sealing it half the time. Just don't have the time to wait.

Speaking of sealing,,,how funny was it when old Mike waited for like 1/2 an hour while we tried drilling through the head gasket.

Poor Mark killed about 6 drill bits trying to get through a bloody head gasket. We all gave up and went to the front.

    • 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?
