7:30 to close. I won't be there this week, will be next week, hopefully with my baby once more :) Just have to pray that work doesn't dick me around and I am able to pick it up sooner rather than later.

I'm pretty much finished mate. It's all up to the ECU now. That get's done tomorrow as long as there are no more holdups - holyf**kenshit I hate japanese instructions on intercoolers that are supposed to 'bolt on'.

YEAH RIGHT!

I'm sorry if it sounded like I was having a crack at you for the delay, not my intention at all Dan! It's my work I'm worried about mate :( They just decided to fire a manager so it looks like I'll be doing more than a few extra shifts for the next few week. It's just a matter of when I'll have a day off next week to come and pick her up and pay you. I won't know that until tomorrow night but hopefully it'll be early in the week, other wise next Thursday (the 7th) as I have the day off to go to uni but that doesn't start until noon so I could be there in the AM.

I'm super appreciative for all the work you guys have done and can't wait to have my baby back. You've been great with me, could not be happier!

And sucks about the non bolt on "bolt on" IC. Hope it wasn't too much trouble for you!

Yeah not a problem mate, always glad to help.

It was only a very minor mod at the end so not a big worry.

I can arrange something like driving the car to your place of work or something similar. I am able to get lifts from just about anywhere and if it means less hassle for you, then sign me up!

ERD Dan, if you see this post:

What options are there for side mount intercooler upgrades for my R32? Do Z32 side mounts fit?

I keep trying to give you a call but have been flat out at work all week :(

ARC side mount

pretty sure r34 ones fit as well.

Seen a few ARC r32 ones floating around in the classifieds section for reasonably cheap

I like this guy.

Work is giving me the shits yet again. I've probably done 7 hours work over the entire week. I'm all for having a good sit down but having a sit down and F5-ing all day gets to me.

I'll trade you jobs. I do 50-60 a week and it's going to get MUCH worse in the next few weeks. Thank god I love what I do so much :)

Yeah it must be so much frickin hard work eyeballin all the pussy every day. Quit ya whingein!

    • The car/ECU will have all the sensor that it needs and expect to have. I think i do not have to explain to you how the Link is way better specialy if you have swapped engine   I just do not want to deal with any "problems" cuz i have only Nistune which i learned is not that great and in my case cant even deal with that speed problem (Link can) And of course it will be way more easier to tune and diagnose and safe. And for the ECU/speed problem...i dont know.
    • Per Mark Roberts of Sonictune: Mark Robert Author At this time, no. No ETA either 2016-17 models. You will be able to purchase and install a 2018.5+ TCU though   TCU purchasing and pricing info! As we near the release of TCU tuning, I am going to answer some questions I get asked often.   What do I need for TCU tuning? At this time, you will need a 2018.5+ TCU to be able to tune. If you have a 2016-to early 2018, you will need to replace your TCU with the newer version. One good way to know if your TCU is good is if you have auto upshift in manual mode in 1st gear around 6500 rpms. If your manual 1st gear goes to 7k rpm and will hit the rev limiter unless you shift, you have the older TCU.   Why do I need to buy another ecu license/phone flash if I already have it on my ECU tune? The TCU is its own computer module. It is completely separate from the ECU. Because of this, you will be required to purchase a TCU license and, if your tuner has it, the phone flash license required to tune it via phone/bluetooth.   Do I need TCU tuning? TCU tuning is NOT required. However, the faster your setup, the more it will assist in track and dragy time consistency.   If I’m ECU tuned by (tuner A) can I get my TCU tuned by (Tuner ? Yes, since it’s a different module and a completely separate flash, you can have two different tuners. However, it is highly recommend that you have both tuned by the same tuner. For me, my TCU tuning will directly complement my ECU tuning style and features and running my ECU and another TCU or vice versa MIGHT cause some issues. At this time and for the foreseeable future, I will only be tuning my current ECU tuned customers TCUs.     I have a SYVECS AWD controller. Do I still need it? Yes! The AWD controllers main job is to control your AWD system. However, with TCU tuning, you will no longer need the auto-shift function as that will be done through the TCU. The AWD controller will still be very beneficial for racers looking to maximize traction on the launch.     Shift schedule changes: holding gears longer at lower pedal input as well as max shift rpm changes. Please note, the new ECU race rom coming out will address 90% of the shitty drivability issues these cars have through custom maps from myself and Racebox—as well as others I am sure.   Increase shift speeds: as seen in the videos I’ve been posting, the TCU shifts much faster once tuned.   Increased shift pressures: as also seen in the videos, much firmer full throttle shifts.

    • The fancy pants red shock tower brace is finally incoming from MX5 Mania, getting it shipped from 'Merica has been a long and problematic process, and GWR, the 'Merican supplier will not ship directly to consumers outside of the US, Mania basically had to order a heap of them, the colour choice was silver, or red, and we all know anything red adds 5 killerwasps of dynotorques..... Whilst it does fit over a 2.5, and I've seen a few photos and videos of it being installed and fitting, google also says it might get real close to the FAB9 intake front runner, people in the US says it does fit with the FAB9 intake, except for one person who said it slightly touched.......so there is that.....LOL..... As it seems that I am the first in AU to have this combination of parts there's no local knowledge about fitment, so I'm just a willing guinea pig in this endeavour, I'll cross my fingers and toes and hope for the best In other news, I ordered stuff from China  on the same day I ordered the 23° silicone bend from Victoria, the stuff from China arrived a day ago, the 23° silicone bend is still travelling around Australia thanks to Australia Post, and "may" be here next week
    • Very good news...I contacted Racebox about it last night. My car is a 2016 so remains to be seen if it is compatible, requires a TCU swap, or is impossible.
