Morning Mangs,

Martin's school of fixing sh*t, lesson 1:

1. unplug everything.

2. Spray with contact cleaner.

3. Plug everything back in.

4. ???

5. Profit.

The above technique applies to many things: cars, computers, plasma TVs, etc.

Stomped hard on the brakes lots on the way to work, car doesnt seem to be cutting out any more. Also my speedo seems to have come good as well :/.

fark i hate mondays.

how was sundays racing?

Meh, broke sh*t, didn't get many laps in, and got sunburnt. Sh*t happens.

haha nice mang. What do you normally run around there?

64.3ish is my best. I'm sure the car is capable of more, I just haven't been able to string a lap together. This year in particular seems to be conspiring against me.

That's what she said

Anyone notice the severe thunderstorm and hail warning?

i think they are ignoring you....

seems to have passed though just light rain here

:blink: to all :P

Howdy partners..

Yes I noticed the thunderstorm warning, not a concern for me, being that i'm in Townsville.

McFly, much awesomeness.

anyone know the diameter of 32 GTR standard front pipes? Guy is selling a set on her for $150 but they are twin 63mm pipes into a 75mm collector. Just wondering whether it's worth the trouble. Still $150 is not bad. I think the HKS ones are 70mm to 80 or 85mm collector.

was pretty heavy at 3. I could see about 4 feet.

didn't even know there was a storm. spent all day in the office. was kinda surprised when i saw it was wet outside when i finished at 5

2.5inch twins into 2.95inch

VS.

2.75inch twins into 3.15inch (or 3.35inch)

Consider that they need to flow enough for 1.3ltrs each. Or to break it down further, only enough power for up to 150kw each. Easily doable with 2.5" crush bent exhaust, I made 170kw atw in my old 626 wagon with 2.5" crush bent system.

What size cat and exhaust are you running? 3"?

Compliance cat and 3inch catback. I think I'll grab em. Low ball ftw.

Morning Mangs,

Futsal was a great success even though we lost :wub: Tristan and Dan dogged us so we only had 5 players. We ended up losing 8 - 7 but it could of gone either way at the end. I scored 4 :)

    • 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.
