Grunta,

you want to get yourself over to Kunda Park and check out MW PERFORMANCE.

Guy's names Marty. Really knows his stuff and would bet my life on his abilities as a performance mechanic.

Just an update.

Thanks for the info guys, went over to MW performance and was very happy with the quality of work.

Marty is a pretty friendly guy and knows his stuff.

And the price was very reasonable, definatley going to go back there for all my mechanical needs.

From my understanding they don't have a dyno and subcontract with people in the brisbane area when cars need to be tuned.

yeah, closest dyno on sunshine coast i found was ultra tune at caloundra but i dont have any feedback from them so i dont know what to expect

best option for dyno tuning is matty at pits at the goldy.You can go to a mob in cooroy (about 30mins from maroochy) chapmans mechanical and dyno.There arent to bad as long as you dont have a 600hp+ monster to tune.

Marty at MW performance charges $70 an hour last time i was there, and he does all work, minor or major.,engine rebuils, turbo conversions etc...

Paul at Motorman (where I got my 34) recommended these guys! I'll have to try them and MW to see which is best :)

    • 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.
