Did you end up going to the coast ?

Yeah I did... funny story...

Time will tell I guess. Got spares in the car in case there's another shit fit. It's still a bit spitty.

What was the cause of the problem? Or did you do a 'Fuck it, I'm replacing everything' fix?

what was it ?

I'm guessing that it was a coil pack. Have replaced it with one of McFly's spares, and so far so good. Have the spare loom and another coil pack in the car just in case it's the loom, or multiple coil packs. I think tomorrow I'm going to pull all 6 out, and re-insulate them even if they look like they don't need it. I don't see why it would still be spitting with new spark plugs.

Oh... and any guesses as to why my oil pressure sits low at idle, then increases to around 4 under acceleration?

oil pump is driven off the crank so more revs = more oil through the engine = higher oil pressure. Should be around 2ish at idle and then up to 4 under acceleration.. I think.

Had a better look tonight. It drops to almost nothing when idling, and goes up no higher than 4 when under load. Usually sits between 2 and 3.

It used to just build up to just under 4, and stay there until the engine was off.

Was behavior acceptable?

    • How would you even adjust the clutch if the pedal already has the correct free play? The operating cylinder has no adjustment in mounting position or rod length. On pull style clutches there is also no ability to adjust the bearing carrier. Push type I can see how adjusting the carrier height makes it all work.   If this is the twin plate clutch did you verify that your friction disks were oriented correctly? It's not mentioned in the directions at all you just have to notice that one side the friction disks have a part number on the hub fingers and a subtle coning to those fingers. Another thing that I noticed was if you put the friction disks in backwards the pressure plate fingers will not be even and flat when the clutch is installed.
    • yeah, mechanically, it is probably do-able, off the top of my head, there would be the transfer case, which I believe will bolt up to the rear of the RWD transmission, the shorter rear tail shaft. A front drive shaft, front diff, engine upper sump, front drive shafts, front hubs and front AWD struts (they are shaped around the front drive shafts), LCAs (at the very least from the front suspension) oil cooler.  You might want the rear diff from an AWD too, so you can be certain the front and rear diff rations are identical.  Who knows what brackets and mounts you might need.  So a whole doner car might be the best option if you need to maintain RHD. Then actually making it work, that would be a whole different story.
    • Take the fall as a warning sign for future endeavours  Stay safe mate
    • hi mate, HKS cooler piping still available by any chance?
