yeah i will give it some WD love tomorrow, then finish bleeding the brakes and i can drive it again :happy:

booked in for an epic expensive wheel alignment on thursday (getting the rear control arms bent to adjust camber)

Who is doing it? I'm happy with my alignment.. But not. Would like to get it checked by a 2nd party.

Lets share a fetus.

i thought tristan and you were sharing a fetus already? or did you not plant your seed deep down enough?

lol so was I. but I was too busy postwhoring on misfits to register an on SAU lol.

You know your old school when you know what misfits was,

lerl @ all the newbie plebs in here

Well 3 corners are down, one to do in the morning and then just got to replace my rear cross member bushes and its ready to get an alignment :happy:

All went relatively smoothly apart from getting the front upper link arms to line up with the holes properly lol. Rear shock was a prick to get off but got there in the end.

Looks much better now although I think the rear could still come down 10mm. We'll see how it looks once the other side has been done and its had time to settle :mad:

Pics are coming tomorrow :D

Did you put a coke can at the bottom?

y u want to sell it josh?

I'll do you a straight swap for the XF :happy:

I only bought it for the wheels, then had a soft spot for it as it went pretty well with the turbo, but alas like all my cars I grew tired of it. TBH, I find slow (In comparison to my 490rwhp R32) and I want something else that’s more track ready, or something that could be far more easier

    • Ahhh, I need the whole head unit. I definitely needed to roll back through and review your setup, ha ha! Neat setup they have going on. I just need a full double din head unit. But I want good and responsive. I might have to review what the likes of pioneer have out these days.
    • Ok so after much research and talking with knowledgeable people I've got my turbo conversion done and it's all running great other than 1 small issue.  Car has remained auto with the na auto and tcm, I've used a stagea ecu with. NIstune board and everything is great other than my gear selection on the dash. It illuminates park, reverse, neutral, 3rd and 2nd. But nothing drive or what gear your in when you pop it into tiptronic.  I'm sure there is may e 1 wire in the ecu plug I need to move to rectify this. Dose anyone here have any ideas?   Cheers guys
    • Sorry I haven't been following all the detail, so you may have tried this. Does it idle with the tiniest bit of throttle you can add? You've mentioned the IACV, does it have an AAC valve and have you adjusted it at all (ie, screw the idle adjust screw all the way in, then back it out a couple of turns until idle is stable)?
    • My bad, I unplugged the one underlined in red instead of yellow before. With the car started, after unplugging the IACV (the one underlined in yellow), it idled at around 400/500 for 3 seconds before stalling. Attempting to start the car without the IACV will not start the car.   It does stutter and sputter for around 5 seconds before dying. However, immediately after starting it, you can already hear some slight sputters from the exhaust.   It won't start with the AFM unplugged. If it is when the car has already started, it stalls in a few seconds.   Yesterday, I did take some logs using Nistune of 3 scenarios. Car idling till it stalls Car idling and unplugging the IACV Car idling and removing the AFM I also have some previous logs of when the Car is idling till it stalls and when driving and it cuts. I am not really knowledgeable enough to understand what to look for. After every test, car idles rougher and rougher, until I have to stop. It will be fine the day after.
    • There is no difference between a 17x8 and an 18x8. The total diameter of the tyre needs to remain +/- the same (so you don't mess up the gearing, speedo reading, and clearance when turning front wheels..... so you just need to use a lower profile tyre on th 18 than you do on the 17. /rocket surgery.
