Hello all.

how was the weekend? Mine consisted of 'Pain da fens... up, down, uuuuuuuup, dooooooooooooooown......'

McRae - backstreet boosting in an unrego'ed car? noice

McFly - The federal 535 is a pretty quick street type tyre. Don't expect too much from them. Not saying they're not grippy, but they are not a flash tyre. Good to hear that your wheel was fixable.

Mr Marine chronometer - Did you sort out your misfire problerm???

Lol I considered putting the 31 plates on it but then just decided f**k it n went without plates. I want it back on the road now though lol :D

Just spent 3.5 hours inspecting a wall with the engineer. f**kin gay.

No one ever said that these walking gant chart guys were employed for having any relevant knowledge! (including maths, or the ability to read gant charts)

Walking gant chart man just asked why my hours this week were less than last week, when in fact i did 1 hour more :D

Clearly he is deducting hours spent on SAU as non working lol

Yeah PMs are there to make everyone else hate life.

Martin - yes 535s are good street tyres.

I have stolen coil pack 1 and 2 and the loom from your ute. I covered it back up again. Haven't put any other parts into it yet because it 1. may not be the problem. 2. I need a vacuum to get all the leaves out so I can put things back where they came from. and 3. I dropped a screw and need needle nose pliers or a magnet stick to get it out.

nah it was sitting there behind the 31, just got moved to mine yesterday, will need to make some time to work on that thing too.....

    • 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.
