Shit! did it just came off because it wasnt tighten? I got that once and was blowing black smoke all the way back home... (lucky for me its only a few kms away).

Yeah I was blowing black smoke while pulled over, couldn't even get it to move, it was idling around 200 and sputtering.

It was tight as anything, I just installed my pod cover a month ago and tightened and rechecked all the piping connections... when it popped off today I'd been pushing it reallllllly hard for the previous half hour or so, out bush on mountain roads hahaha. I'm thinking maybe some new clamps would be a good idea before I head out there again.

yea... clamps or have an extra cover over it. I've seen some that got wrapped up in black rubber stuff with clamps on both ends. If you include the original pipe clamps thats 3 in total!

What happened???

I think my thermostat isn't working :) Temp on the dash board said it was ok but when it was cool it took two litres of water in the radiator. Fouled up one of the plugs and was only running on 5 cylinders. A hose on the intake was split and sucked a bunch of sh_t into the throttle body. Fun fun fun... considering I only just got it serviced not that long ago :laugh:

Seems to be ok now. Keep my fingers crossed and everything else too :(

Sup all. Heads up for anyone that was planning on coming down to visit today I probably won't be home till 4ish have to do another run back home to pick up some shit that got left behind yesterday. I'm keeping my license till the 14th though so we can do a final cruise

/housewarming next weekend? I'll probably head down the spit this afternoon though for anyone who is interested.

Jeez, I thought I had a bad time sitting on a highway service road for half an hour finding my problem..... Jason it sounds like you're having a LOT more fun than me :)

Sorry to hear mate... got everything going good now though yeah?

+1 for next weekend. But keep in mind of the drag day on Saturday!

Didnt vspec said he was gonna organize a photo shoot next Sunday after he got his car repainted? Any news?

Cleaned the plug it was all fouled up. Started it up and idled ok. You go to the hamilton pub ? Im sure I've seen your car parked there a couple of times.

Geeezz thats a whole list of stuff! My fingers are crossed as well .....

Not looking forward to the drive to toowoomba to drop my daughter off. If anyone is going that way around 3 i'll be leaving ipswich then so if you see me broked down... can you give me a lift ?

Not sure if i can come yet but are any of you guys heading out to the drag arvo convoy style .....

You can organize 1. I'll probably be heading there with john and adam if he's coming at all

    • Yea got me coppers. Bad news is I just put them in and the car still has the light and shakes. I also noticed I hear like rattling coming from the exhaust piping right under me. Does 21 also have a possibility of being O2 sensors?   So, coil packs are good, the harness is good, the MAF is working, and obviously the spark plugs just replaced and working.
    • Make sure you drop the GTT base tune back in, and set your injectors again, this will remove anything playing up with it you may have removed. Possibly lean there as it's normally a fast transient going THROUGH atmospheric pressure, and a turbo motor would then quickly go richer as boost builds. The only worry you MIGHT have is ignition timing, as the DE is higher compression than the DET from memory. But again, you're not in boost, so the DE motor will be a lot more forgiving at atmospheric.   Get Murray, Kinkstahs, and Johnny's input on tuning haltechs, those guys have played with tuning enough in the past to be able to help now you're past the trouble shooting stage of the MAP issue
    • @Rusty NutshI mate. Do you have a pinout diagram for the na neo auto ecu? 
    • Yeah thats the plan now. 🤞
    • Have a chat with the tuner, you'd want to drive the car straight there.
