standard bulbs are in :D

Wonder if the cop shop is open tomorrow?

@thrustion, all good bro, just thought I'd ask <3

<3 all good mang

reckon I can get out of my defect/fine because he wrote the body type as 'SEDAN' when it's actually a coupe? :cool:

lol! cant believe you got defected

and i totally agree - your HIDs owned my stock bulbs in the hills - keen to have another go man once im all tuned up - and i have new bulbs :D

around a week or so bro!

*touch wood*

@ Dan_B:

I sent ERD Dan a message asking about the filter for the 4WD system. If I can get one do you reckon we can fit in a flush/clean/top up on car day?

@ Colin & Martin:

Continuing on from Thursday's discussion. After reading through some more threads I've decided I will keep the 20, and aim for 300HP (all wheel, and not Brandon spec). Then if I wind up buying a Z32 I might convert the Fo' to 25 or bigger. Will this stop you having nightmares about VGs?

@ Andy:

What was the name of that RB management system that you were raving about a while ago that allows you to run without AFMs? Could I use it on my 20? And will it handle what I just said to Colin & Martin?

@ Tristan:

The bulbs that were in Katy when you first got here weren't stock were they? The purpley ones? What have you got in there now? I was wondering if they were the same lights I used to use in the Capri. I had some really good ones, if they're the same (got a pic of the back?) I'll dig out the old box and let you know what they were.

P.S. Can I come for fun drives too? <3

P.P.S. Can't beleive you dogged Michelle :P

@ Jason:

I knew you'd cry if I didn't address you personally, so hey mang *tips hat*

@ Geoff:

hey geoff!

:(

@ everyone else:

What's crackin' mangs?

It's 0530 and I'm so effing bored... Gotta go to Ipswich today to get my new squeaky toys :(

yeah figured as much

you can't see a f*cking thing with standard bulbs. THEY should be illegal, and HIDs should be compulsory

Yeah standard ones are shit compared to HIDs.

I can see just fine with mine :(

Colin's are good too...

Mine are good compared to driving with parkers on. That's about it lol.

<3 all good mang

Will probably get rid of my night terrors yes.

Next week, say mid week?

German club dinner and beers?

Interesting proposal. Make Tuesday midweek because I'll be in Brisbane already.

Good morning!

Moaning

300HP out of the 20 should be pretty easy. Will only stop my nightmares if I don't ever have to do any work on the Z32.

Vipecs are good. Can't remember what system Andy was going on about, but I think it was more for SRs than RBs.

yo

i got rid of my original lights (inc bulbs.) when i bought the blue ones

the bulbs in the original ones were those bluey ones they sell at repco for stupid expensive prices (for what they are)

my new bulbs are 100w ones (stock is 60w) - they are sexy, overnight parts from hongkong lol

@p.s. - yeh sure

@p.p.s. - yeeh had to dog - needed to pick up copper nut, and that involved a trip to manly lol

Defect cleared :(

And I fixed my rattle gun :(

Cop that cleared it was almost as much of a douche as the guy that booked me. Complained because all 4 bulbs weren't on for low beam (wtf? High beam bulbs should be on for low beam?) and said the headlights weren't standard. Eventually cleared it but.

Now to waste half an afternoon putting my wheels back on and HIDs back in :P

Edited by Smity42

:rofl:

Good afternoon mangs.

I do reply, I just have to notice it first! There are too many pages to read each night after work :P

Congrats on getting the defect cleared.

now for a nice long weekend of SFA :P

^^^^ :rofl:

WELL I JUST WENT INTO TRADE TOOLS AND NOW IM IN LOVE :P

i just saw the alloy jack they got in there *drools* ....who is going to give me $350 so i can get it?!

    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
    • Well they got my money but they are not getting my gearbox ! 
    • It's needed for rolling idle up, and I think it is a decider on VCT also.
    • I mean, not really. Link ECU's can absolutely still have errors from the ECU thinking it's getting a sensor it's not expecting. I would imagine the speed at the ECU level in Nistune does absolutely nothing anyway? I assume the ECU does not do any fancy TC stuff with regards to front+rear wheel speed or anything of that like anyway. Someone who uses Nistune may be more fluent in it.
