Inner West Crew Whoretown (toowong/st Lucia/kenmore/indooroopilly And Sometimes Sunnybank?)

What happened to the job at Indooroopilly? Thought you were meant to be working on the renovations there.

Also, if you end up working on road projects I'm going to hold you personally responsible for every pothole I hit from now until eternity :P

We still have the job at Indro but looks like I'll be changing jobs. Got a job offer that is pretty much twice what I'm on now 14/5 roster with 2 days for flying.

Find any TIs?

+1

f**kin unlikely you'll ever be driving on these roads anyway

Easy enough to blame you any way

sweet news on the job offer!

so is that 14 on, 1 fly, 5 off, 1 fly?

Yeah that's pretty much how it goes. Director wants to have a meeting on Monday to discuss it but I'm pretty set on leaving. Will be putting in my resignation on Monday and then probably be starting out there in the 22nd of May or something like that. Need to hang around to get completion stuff sorted on this project.

Mmmmmmm...

no parts to work on the leopard and too raining to work on the skyline

lazy sunday it is

I've got 2500 words to write and so far all I've done is watched Top Gear and Jimmy Carr...

After fitting the exhaust my coilpack misfire (or so i assume) seems worse. (although it only happened on track...not after i left lakeside)

there are plenty of threads on coilpacks etc on the forums, but i thought id come ask you guys personally. ive done the tape and silicone thing about 40k ago, and has lasted well since then. but now its time to replace. so my question is......(drum roll)

are yellow jackets, or the red coilpacks any good? or should i just go for the splitfires for a whole lot more folding cash? i wanna stay with standard location and fitment for the sake of keeping it neat underneath with minimal hassle (yeah i'm a bit slack at times)

I'm running yellow jackets, no complaints so far!

Straight fit and they are working like a charm.

Might be worth checking your voltage at the coil packs though, as my missing was caused by voltage drop in the wiring, fixed by a relay.

In other news, morning mangs, f*ck mondays. Did manage to get some work done on the leopard (re-fitted coil packs and replaced fuel lines), and the sun came out so I could at least swap the tyres back on the wedge.

Now definitely need leopard parts for more progress :(

cheers man, i heard you saying something like that the other day about the voltage drop. i can fix pretty much anything mechanical...but am entirely useless when it comes to electrics. So i really wouldnt know where to start. could prob find the right wires, but as for testing...thats where i get lost.

yellow jackets might be the go, my old coils have done 40k with the tape job done and that lasted a while (might even have another look)

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
