Thanks Pauly. Rumours get around in this scene faster than if my missus was telling her girlfriends!!

It's true that I am leaving Extreme Magazine to take up a new position and even though it's only a little while away, I just can't wait to get stuck in.

I've been reading this mag forever and I'm wrapped to be a part of it. Tough, turbocharged cars that go hard. Right up my alley!

To think I only just stopped buying it because I got sick of wall to wall rotary powered drag cars.

Maybe it can return to its old eclectic self with the technical content reinstated...........

been reading this magazine for forever. congrats man

i remember the boost controller they made with a knob off an old stereo, air hose from a fish tank and some no.8 fencing wire. It was put together using a ball pein hammer, an allen key from a flat pack kitchen and a tube of silastic.

ahh those were the days.

yeah there was some good shit floatin around. do you reember an article on the blue stanza that was converted to methanol? man that thing was dodge as f*ck, but it ran low 11's from memory, fuel pump was a mechanical item off an ice cream truck with random holden water pump parts crammed in to make it work lol

Awesome news ;) I might start reading Zoom again....What will the new name be?

"Backyard Bob's Best Boosted Bits" i think.

What about the mad electric Supercharger made from the impeller off an old Simpson washing machine hooked up to a Valiant wiper motor fed by 2 dolphin torch batteries with corrugated pool hose piping...those guy's were nuts!

    • 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.
