Morning mangs,

S2 and that would be grand

Bummer, that means I need to figure out what wire it is :(

Shouldn't be too hard though.

bludging net access off mcd wifi.

Good form

martin, should have a number for you today. hoping to get the 31 on a hoist today at some point as well.

Thanks!

Another glorious morning

Sh*t weather is sh*t.

Boz, you getting the 34 back this week?

+1

Sorry guys. Me having so much free(ish) time is what's causing all this weather, obviously. I mean all the bad weather started about an hour after i finished the work i was doing on the holidays.

This day just won't end.....

Tempted to schedule in a phantom meeting for the afternoon and knock off early.

Does anybody know where I can call for some light guard flaring?

Not game to do it myself. My rolling job was a bit agricultural so not game to do much else.

Sexy Dave rolls guards for beer.

If the flare you need is just pulling it out with the guard roller then he can probably do that for you too. How effective it is will depend on a number of factors though. If you've already munted the guards with a dodgy rolling job it won't help.

Spoke to smash repair guys late last week and I should be picking her up late tomorrow or early Thursday :)

Here's hoping that holds true! And also hoping they kept at least two degrees of camber on the wheels as I requested. Want it closer to three but that may be a bit of overkill.

Hey Guys.

Here's hoping you get your car before the weekend Boz.

As for guard rolling, take a look at what I've been doing. Fitting the Telstar around some 18 x 9.5 +25's. I cut the outer skins and have pulled them from the inners. The door sills needs a major tidy up, but have got a set of hammers and dollies. Will be welding up the rest this weekend. I'll be doing the same with the door skins. The skins have been pulled by about 1".

Still to work on the door and to tidy up the front guard. The pic of the pulled rear guard makes it look like there is big dent in the flare bit, but it's acutally black paint.

seems weather has something to do with it.

spent most of today under a mack truck and under a 4wd and under a white 2 door thing.(31)

there is a about half a page of changes I need to make to it for it to be 110% legal. until such time it will have instant rego whilst I move it around place to place.

seems this car is similar to the 32. the chassis rails are just as easy to bend. found where it had been jacked wrong and thats one of the points on the RWC paper. thats easily fixed - panel guy can sort it.

joys of old cars :)

Love the rims Scott.

I don't even remotely have the right tools to attempt something like that.

I might give the guy from precision rolling a call and see what he says.

Otherwise may wait a while and go see camerons body works

Why must people camp in the right hand lane doing ten ks under the limit, next to the only other car on the road?

shit blokes.

I loved driving in Europe. The instant someone did that they would have an angry Italian man in a fiat punto two inches from their back bumper, using the horn to morse code M.O.V.E O.V.E.R F.U.C.K.E.R whilst texting his cousin to buy more kappa track suits to wear with his socks and sandals.

looks like raining most of the week too Chris :(

Can't seem to find an S2 wiring diagram Bodo, will have to wing it

all good, im sure we can sort it out, thanks for looking :woot: ....and yes this weather is balls....soo sick of it. i dont think ive had a complete fortnight of work all year yet :(

    • Hi, i’m making a rb25det coil loom for Vag short coil. Can anybody tell me which Ecu signal wire belong to coil number 1 and 2,3,4,5,6? The connecting switch in above pic is 8 wire i think white is for +12v and black for earth.
    • Was there ever a model of the Stagea m35 that didnt have a badge on the grill? I thought I saw that somewhere, some aero edition or something? I cant find it again? davemoto
    • Its a 2002 vr-x four VQ25DET, silver. Coil overs, lowered, polished alloys and sport exhaust. Bit of a project, was sitting in a shed for a while but runs and drives great.
    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
