I guess everyone is hiding from the rain, parts of bowen hills and newstead are blocking up and covering the road

Yeah a bit shit today. We got shut down by the union at 10:30 for some reason. But now we've got night shift working lol. Excellent. In other news I put in my leave for Europe. 23/08 till the 1/10. So just over 5 weeks of holidays which will be awesome.

Couple of pants browning moments on the roads today. Wheel's locked up under breaking at one point, narrowly missed the car in front.

Rear end stepped out going around the big round about at Indooroopilly, corrected easily but shat myself when I realised that there was a cop right behind me.

Enjoying the awd subi at the moment.

Conditions are perfect for it

yep thats what they were made for. now imagine a bit of power under the right foot. mine is heaps of fun in the wet.

HAHAHAHAHAH COLIN!!!!!!

Thats why im still glad the 31 is running, saw a guy on a scooter this morning, he was loving the weather

I will take you for a run in mine at some point then.

Creek infront of our place is about as high as i've seen it. And there's more rain coming.

(not to worry though, would need about 300mm in the entire catchment above it in an hour to get it up to our house)

edit: went for a walk for a few km down the creek. Down stream there's water flowing out of the sewer main manholes. Not cool. it can stop raining now before it backs up up here...

    • 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.
