Gtr has one turbo back on. Spent yesterday chasing parts an fixing the motorbike. Should have it back together Saturday i reckon maybe. Apart from one O2 sensor.

Spent a few hours pulling all of the interior out of a s3 ti today to put into the wagon. Only problem I can see is that the won't work with a ca20 and that the rear and front light plugs etc won't work on the pintara. Conections for the lights are east to change.. I think. And for the other problem I'm pretty sure I need to invest in a 30 for it.

Week has been super unproductive.

Kids been sleeping crap so motivation is at an all time low.

car has been sitting in the driveway for the last four weeks undriven, as it doesn't have a bonnet.

On the upside, my black ops kill to death ratio has been steadily improving over the past four weeks

anybody know of a r32 gtr front reo for sale. struggling to find one locally

may have to get one from adelaide.

option one had one there on a HCR32 nose chop. may pay to ask.

In a great end to the year my gearbox may be going the way of the dodo :(

After a little spirited driving this arfternoon it suddenly decided to put its self into "safe mode" or whatever it's called. 3rd gear only and the A/T light was up on the dash. Pulled over quickly, turned her off and let her sit for a little while. Struggled slightly when starting her back up, bit of a lurch and was back idleing like normal. Was a bit cautious on the way home.

Major sadface, can't afford an expensive mechanical issue, I wanted to buy an S13 in a couple of months.

Happy New Year Everyone!

Time to get our Go Kart date sorted. I can do after 1030am every Saturday and after 1130 on Sunday. If those time are fine, I'll call and secure a slot for us this coming week.

just watched Martins wrap up video, I really need to get my richness issue sorted out! At least I can accelerate under the cover of my smoke screen though, stealthy.

yep you have a bit of a smoke screen happening there :)

bunnings = win. looks like they have started selling pallet racking. bought two big racks and a lot of shelves. now my messy garage is now tidy :)

    • Ok so after much research and talking with knowledgeable people I've got my turbo conversion done and it's all running great other than 1 small issue.  Car has remained auto with the na auto and tcm, I've used a stagea ecu with. NIstune board and everything is great other than my gear selection on the dash. It illuminates park, reverse, neutral, 3rd and 2nd. But nothing drive or what gear your in when you pop it into tiptronic.  I'm sure there is may e 1 wire in the ecu plug I need to move to rectify this. Dose anyone here have any ideas?   Cheers guys
    • Sorry I haven't been following all the detail, so you may have tried this. Does it idle with the tiniest bit of throttle you can add? You've mentioned the IACV, does it have an AAC valve and have you adjusted it at all (ie, screw the idle adjust screw all the way in, then back it out a couple of turns until idle is stable)?
    • My bad, I unplugged the one underlined in red instead of yellow before. With the car started, after unplugging the IACV (the one underlined in yellow), it idled at around 400/500 for 3 seconds before stalling. Attempting to start the car without the IACV will not start the car.   It does stutter and sputter for around 5 seconds before dying. However, immediately after starting it, you can already hear some slight sputters from the exhaust.   It won't start with the AFM unplugged. If it is when the car has already started, it stalls in a few seconds.   Yesterday, I did take some logs using Nistune of 3 scenarios. Car idling till it stalls Car idling and unplugging the IACV Car idling and removing the AFM I also have some previous logs of when the Car is idling till it stalls and when driving and it cuts. I am not really knowledgeable enough to understand what to look for. After every test, car idles rougher and rougher, until I have to stop. It will be fine the day after.
    • There is no difference between a 17x8 and an 18x8. The total diameter of the tyre needs to remain +/- the same (so you don't mess up the gearing, speedo reading, and clearance when turning front wheels..... so you just need to use a lower profile tyre on th 18 than you do on the 17. /rocket surgery.
    • I thought the same to start with. But then I thought it was one of those LCAs where the end of the ARB goes through a bushing in the LCA itself, instead of having an end link.
