Inner West Crew Whoretown (toowong/st Lucia/kenmore/indooroopilly And Sometimes Sunnybank?)


Recommended Posts

Yep I have the manwell for it. I downloaded it from the website. I went to the off setting and it didn't seem to do anything. It was still giving me infinity boost.

F*ck, that's not good :ermm:.

Bring the manwell tonight, saves me having to print it.

Lol @ NASA

Voyager 2: *Gibberish*

NASA dude 1: Hmmm, voyager 2 seems to be broken

NASA dude 2: Have you tried turning it off and on again?

NASA dude 1: Naah, we'd better figure out whats going on first

several days later...

NASA dude 1: Yeah I figured it out, theres a bit-flipped in memory

NASA dude 2: OK, how do we fix that then?

NASA dude 1: Lets try turning it off and on again...

ATTN: Phil, Misohorny, John, Dan

Work out a day that works for everyone to fix Jasons AVCR and do Miso's brakes. Dan will need his brake bleeder. I can't do it this weekend though.

I am easy. Just let me know and i shall be there. Can work it out tonight at baskins. No longer jet lagged, so won't sleep through it. :ermm:

Sounds expensive. So whats doing mangs? I'm typing meeting minutes :D

Trying to clean up scanned alfa wiring diagrams to print. HOPEFULLY they are the right ones :S

Cool, sounds like it will be a good turn out tonight. Thristian, you coming?

Very expensive. You can only import them.

Anytime is good for me ( if i can afford to drive there :D ) I'm on day shift this week and next and have this weekend and next one off. :ermm:

I think tonight we will just bypass the AVCR and pipe the wastegate actuator directly to a boost source. This should put you back to stock boost (stock LOW boost probably) which will get you by (and hopefully fix your fuel economy) untill we can sort it out. Hopefully next weekend will work for everyone.

If it still boosts it's t*ts off, or you still get bad fuel economy, then you have other problems.

I'm not 100% sure how the AVCR can be ruining your fuel economy so much, if anything I would have thought it would make it better as you'd be trying to drive off boost all the time...

o2 sensor? when was that last replaced?

I've only had shitty fuel economy since the avcr. But it is getting worse and worse. How much is a o2 sensor ?

Jason... did you let you car hang out with mine again? I started her up this morning and she was all lumpy and shaking and carrying on, and drives like a bucket of shit :down:

Just letting it cool down now so I can see if I can work out wtf is going on with it ;)

like $100ish i think man

i have a spare good one you could try - if they fit (its an sr one)? idk if they do

was the avcr new? who installed the avcr? i'd give them a bell maybe they f**ked up? (or was it you that fitted it :down:) jks jks

    • After using a protractor for an actually accurate assessment of what is required,  and by NOT using my uncalibrated eyeball I worked out I need a 25° silicone bend from the TB ro the MAF, but, my choice was either a 30° or a 23° (23° is a weird spec), so I grabbed the 23° one from Raceworks I also grabbed 1mtr of 3" straight from Just Jap, I needed 350mm, but they only had 300mm, or 1mtr lengths....meh Also ordered a 1/2" hose bulkhead fitting from fleabay, this has a smoothish mushroom looking head (they are designed for below the water line of boats) that will fit inside the bend, the hose bit and threaded bit looks to long, but nothing that a hacksaw cannot fix if required, the hose will then just get jamed on the threaded bit up to the retaining nut Fingers crossed and the unsightly amount of hose clamps will be reduced down to 4 once all the parts arrive 
    • Oil change does not trigger code 21. Code 21 is for coilpacks primary side connection. You can try to clear the code with a battery disconnect, hold down the brake pedal to drain capacitors through the brake lights with the ignition on for 10-15 seconds before you reconnect the battery. I have seen R35 coil conversion permanently cause this code with no ill effects so it might be the resistance it wants to see isn't quite right on one or more coilpacks. Could be inside the ECU, could be the harness, could be a coil. You can test it all if you want or just ignore until the car actually starts misfiring.
    • I forgot you have a Nistune ECU. Use Nistune to do all the tests I mentioned instead of faffing with 30+ year old electrical connectors. You can read MAF volts off that too, there are reference values in the service manual to tell you roughly what it should be in different conditions.
    • No. I think it might be the AFM. Hence the use of the terms "swaptronics", which implies the use of swapping out electronics for the purpose of diagnosis. It's about the only way to prove that a small/niggling/whatever problem with an AFM or a CAS or similar is actually caused by that AFM/CAS/whatever. A known good item swapped in that still gives the same problem is likely to be caused somewhere else. They're all the same. Spraying AFMs with cleaner is an each way bet between cleaning it and f**king it.
    • Oh wow! This might actually work amazingly. Do you know the ratio of the diff? I was told the only thing you need to make sure of is if the front & rear diff ratios are the same. Ours is a 4.083 Thanks!
