You're not wrong there.

The car is booked in for a tune at EFI on Wednesday. Need to fit Nistune, drop front shaft and up the boost a little before then.

For some reason i read that as Wallangarra. Wasn't any sort of weird trail fixing afterall.

Hope it all turns out well, I'll have to save like hell and hope I can get more done before too long. Mine is only set for 7.5PSI with a good 3-4 more to come as it stands but not sure if I wanna keep her as she is or go all out... Glad I dont have to worry about dropping driveshafts ect, keep us informed.

They'll set the boost when they tune it.

Not with the way my boost control works....

I didn't realise it was as bad as it was made out to be. Welcome To California...

you get off work at 12:30 on a Friday? nice deal

I haven't done much all day. Does that count?

Thanks mate. Your's turned out ok, except for the big dollars. 155kw for stock boost is good. Going all out costs too much...:wacko:

Yeah I know but it's possible plans for the future. Biggest things for me at the moment is my suspension is completely farked in the back, front not too bad but could be better so that's my main, then I got a small leak in the turbo manifold I have to reseal, the turbo drain has a small leak and VCT rewiring and new boost controller. That's what they've told me anyway.

if you are who I think - why haven't you popped up sooner..

Have been very busy the last 2 weeks with work..... Lookin forward 2 meetin some of u's over the next few weeks!!!!! Sorry i didn't go last nite i fell asleep:(

Any plans for the weekend???

just a quick question.

What oil you guys and gals pour into your babies?? Ive been very happy with MOTUL turbolight....but getting increasingly annoying to find. Ralf has some penrite jazz in his.....ive never been happy with a penrite oil. :sick:

Royal purple or penrite sin, turbo light is shit, every time I have used it I have had inconsistent oil pressure after about 2000kms

ive always had nice consistent oil pressure with turbolight, Mumslayer has penrite in his car atm...and his oil pressure seems very low.

i love the idea of royal purple. but dunno if i can justify the 100 bucks a bottle :(

The Turbolight isn't a fully synthetic oil, it's a synthetic/mineral blend

If you're going to use Motul, go for the 8100 excess or Chrono V

I use Royal Purple

im not worried about fully syn and not. the cars were made and factory run on basics, so i think the 59 bucks for the turbolight will do. (which i did fine btw...locally and easily)

that sounds like an interesting oil you running there smity. hows the oil pressure? im still vary wary of penrite.

Dan [ERD] has posted this previously, and it's not the be all and end all of oil tests but it gives you a good guide:

    • Is the panel filter one that is oiled? Have you ever cleaned or touched the AFM?
    • So.... the K&N air box thingo was too big, ended up gifting it to a mate, well, by gifting it he actually supplied food and beer at the pub,  which was nice, as it will not sit on a shelf in the garage for the next 10 years I did trim up some of the existing stuff to neaten it all up and gave it some wrinkle paint, unfortunately it currently has a used and abused mish mash of different types of hose clamps, 4 big fat T bolt type (shit), and a few normal clamps of vairing sizes and brands, but..... only until the 6 constant tension black worm clamps that I ordered from EFI solutions turn up next week Currently the current hose clamps are triggering me hard, LOL Is this the final version, probably not, I really want just 2 silicone pieces, a straight bit of silicone from the filter to the MAF is easy and will happen as soon as I head into Just Jap tomorrow, the problematic part is a 30° silicone bend from the MAF to the TB that I can connect the engine breather from the head, I found that there are bulk head fittings for boat bilge pumps that should work, but until I can get a 30° silicone bend the alloy pipe, and the 11ty thousand hose clamps, are there for the foreseeable future 4 hose clamps are golden, 6 are grudgingly acceptable, the 8 currently holding it all together is just taking the piss    I've also ordered 60 more retaining wall blocks for the front yard, I mis-gonculated the height that was required to get above the base of the Photinia's (red robin's) that are the hedge behind the front fence, currently it is 2 blocks high, and about 1/2 a block short, so going 3 blocks high will be above the base of the red robin's, and allow some room for mulch
    • It is the stock air box with the panel filter. Everything else is stock except the exhaust at this point, as I also went back to the cleaned 270cc injectors. I will check the RPM when the IACV is unplugged and report back.
    • As MBS suggested if this is happening when the engine is cold you're going to want to remove the intake air regulator and verify resistance + that the shutter is physically opening and closing. At -20C should be fully open, 20C half open, over 60C fully closed. At 20C should be 70-80 ohms. For AAC valve testing using a Consult cable see if you can raise and lower the idle by commanding more or less AAC duty cycle. Hopefully it's pretty linear as well, shouldn't be like 30% AAC valve is barely idling and 40% is 1500 rpm.
