new powersteering pump, it was leaking oil

new exhaust, old 1 was to loud

remove turbo timer, boost controller

remove gauges of A pillar

check steering wheel out, its an isotta so it was all good

stock bov to be fitted

things i had done whilst in shop:

full service and tune

new clutch

i had 4 defect stickers on my car, lol, and also i had to pay $68.50 to give them a f**king peice of paper (engineeres report) they r f**king flamin mongrels there, i hate that place, rip off government, but hows this when i went through they wre telling me that they got a holden straight off the production line and defected it???? what are the 5-0 driving around in?????? i think they should practice their preaching, bunch of cock stain he government and police r, not the blokes at regancy themselves, they r pretty cool, just following there rules, sorry for offtopic there, just make sure everything is in working order and legal, or u may aswell bend over and take it in the ass

Now i dont know why you bothered with it mate

$13K is a price of a 33 now anyway

and i dont know why you got your coilovers engineered.

i got mine through regency and i would be happy to say it all sent me back prob abt $800max

and i had to remove and change a lot of things on mine

new eye level brake light, (spoiler light) $200 ~

teins lifted, sleaved and engineered <$1500 ~

new powersteering pump, it was leaking oil <$500

new exhaust, old 1 was to loud shove a sandwich plate between the gasket $20

remove turbo timer, boost controller DIY

remove gauges of A pillar DIY

check steering wheel out, its an isotta so it was all good

stock bov to be fitted <$100

eye level brake light was 300, clutch was 900, teins were 1700 all up, and regancy wouldnt let them past without engineeres report, service and tune was 1200, also just membered that i had to get a new heater core which was 1100, exhaust was 2000, alot of it i needed anyway, and i did want the car there but when it f**ked up i couldnt be f**ked with it anymore, it was the last thing my perants bought me b4 they died pretty much, thats y i spent the money, it was a huge head f**k going through regancy, lol, and all the shit i got new instead of second hand shit, thats y is cost me $13,000 i guess, i know it was stupid but it did have sentimental value and now i just cant be bothered with it anymore, so now its for sale

    • Got some decent progress after work yesterday and also today. Got the ECU all wired and passenger side interior all back together. Kept the wiring up nice and high to avoid people standing on it. Got the surge tank relays rewired and tidied up the pump wiring and cut a hole to bring the cables through.  I found a spare USB cable I had lying around so I decided to cut it up and see if I could use it for my CAN 1 bus. Turned out one of the pins I needed was to the shield of the cable so i cut it up and desoldered it and resoldered to the correct pins.  Had the issue with the powersteering hose hitting the A/C compressor and fan shroud. I pulled the bracket off and modified it to remove the front mounting point which now clears it all. Will keep an eye on it to see if theres any signs of fouling once it's up and running.
    • That's some good input mate. Nice.
    • So today I went well outside my comfort zone (again) to replace my valve cover gasket.  I have had a big leak over the exhaust leading to a lot of smoke and smell every time I drove it. The leak was in the rear driver's corner.  The job wasn't hard as such, just a bit finicky and time consuming.  The old gasket was rock hard and broken right where the leak was.  The leaky corner had so much sitting oil in it.  The good news to my amateur eyes was no buildup or sludge under the cover. It all looked fairly nice in there.   I haven't started it yet. I ran out of light and body when putting the coils and injector loom back in. Probs only 30min left for the morning.  I was so nervous putting the cover back on, I must have lifted it 5 times to make sure the gasket was still seated properly. God it's going to be nice to be leak free and not make other traffic light queuers think my car is about to explode.
    • Gave the Mazda it's first wash, it will need some clay, a light compound, and polish polish to remove a few swirl marks, but that will be a job for when I have a full day to get my DA polisher action on
    • Just did this job on my 32 with the boost doc kit. was quite simple to fit, hardest part was getting the rubber bungs back on the firewall. does anyone know how the heater will work now without the flap in the bend? Will I just have a heater on 24/7 now?
