isola, tell them how the drive went!

we were pointing forwards, car was pointing left, tyres were pointing right... i was just pointy!

But seriously, the 180 is pretty damn epic. You'll be sitting on 60, and the car is just sitting there, sleeping, waiting for further instructions. At 60 it feels like you're doing 40 and you can hardly hear the engine, but snap it back to second and get ready for a nice spleen and pelvis massage. That said though, the force isn't THAT much, that car just seems to tell inertia to go an have intercourse with itself, you don't feel it rock and carry on. It knows what it's doing, and if you tell it what you want, and what you want it to do... there's no problems at all.

Once it's had it's full tune and running manual boost... it's going to be a f**king demon...

Oh, and she's got a nice throaty growl to it when you put the boot in ;)

As an aside. I've lined up a buyer for one of my guitars. So hopefully in the next four weeks I should have a nice FR. No, I don't know what yet. Depends what's around when I have the coin.

i reckon u should buy a 4x4 ute like a hilux

Yeah if i do it it will be a ute for sure. needs to be trayback though, I hate the f**king wheel wheels taking up tray space. Hilux, Patrol, Cruiser are prime candidates

    • 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.
    • I thought the same to start with. But then I thought it was one of those LCAs where the end of the ARB goes through a bushing in the LCA itself, instead of having an end link.
