Sponsor or not, the rules of the forum apply to everyone, including those about spamming.

That said, I wouldn't consider this a spam thread, as it is genuinely informational (although since its about a particular product, the link dropping is kinda inevitable).

Keep up the good work, congrats on the television coverage, and thanks for your support.

Hi funkymonkey,

Yes I don't consider this a spam thread either, which is why I posted it in the general automotive discussion section rather than the parts for sale section.

Thanks for your kind words - the Skylines Australia forum is definitely one of the best forums out there, and we're more than happy to be an ongoing sponsor of the forum. The forum members on here are very knowledgable and seem to really appreciate the advantages of genuine, real deal JDM parts, so this forum is a very good fit for us.

while we are talking about quick release kits.....I need to run a momentary up/down switch on the wheel for attessa settings but want to use a quick release. what's the best way to do it? Bell website mentions some options but there isn't really enough detail.

How many race cars internationally run MoTeC ECUs as well? :( The "JDM yo" 350Zs in Tokyo Drift were running APS twin turbo kits.

Seeing Japanese parts on Aussie cars is happening a bit more these days. I was reading in Motor recently, and Herrod's demo ute runs Tein suspension.

Hi Scathing - I didn't know you were on this forum too :)

Yeah you're exactly right about Aussie parts on cars overseas. I didn't know they run Tein gear on the Herrod's ute - interesting. We are thinking of adapting some Tein gear for use on our Time Attack car - I don't think Tein makes an off the shelf kit for a '71 911 :)

    • Some troubleshooting, connect up a timing light/gun with a proper ignition lead on coil 1. Hold the revs at 4~4500rpm and see if your timing is all over the shop, scattering off its tits. If so, there's a high chance your CAS is fked. But I read you have a Link ECU ready to go in, why not just skip all this and put that in - will make troubleshooting so much easier.  
    • Misfires when the car is fully warm are generally attributed to the coils (and/or the igniter, on cars with a separate igniter). They can stop working properly when they get hot for a number of reasons. Either electric/electronic, or from thermal expansion opening up gaps and allowing HV leakage. Seeing as you have replaced the coils, that could/should rule them out. But I wouldn't always assume so. Were the coils genuine? Or is there a chance you have bought some counterfeit Chinesium shit? Then we're back onto loom connections. They can fail when warm/hot for the same reasons. Inspections, cleaning of contact surfaces, ensuring that terminals are fully inserted, etc etc, are all justified. The same (heat effects) holds true for the other electrics and their connectors. AFM & CAS, primarily. If you try that Chinesium AFM, drive it around on low load until it is properly hot, but do'nt give it more load than you have to, except when you need to see if it will still miss. I'm dead serious about the untrustworthiness of the calibration of those copy AFMs. Injectors are unlikely to get hot unless the fuel is coming back around hot. You could try squirting them with compressed air or freeze spray to cool them back down to see if they are maybe the cause.
    • Alright, all the plugs looks good. Noticed that it starts to get bad when the car is up to temp, that's when things starts to misfire hard. next to do is Injector cleaning and such. Got in touch with a shop to do work on the injectors next Monday also help on diagnosis.
    • House of Fatz dry dock needs a clean sadly one of the long time stables is leaving this weekend   see ya mr purple
    • Hence why I've only modified my car into a pure daily. Everything has to remain reliable & roadworthy, while providing value and grin factor. It also must not be handcrafted to the extent that the car will be immovable if something breaks because you cannot get or make a replacement to at least limp around with.
