Are they multi stud John?

I assume not, don't think I've seen any multi stud advans. Would be keen to take them for the ute if they're 4 stud.

oh and Morning Mangs,

So the exhaust has fallen off my car again, at the cat. Needs moar locktite lol. Also I'm getting some terrible squealing noises, sounds like they're coming from the pulleys at the front of the motor...maybe bearings gone in them or something? Anyone know how difficult these are to change?

Lol. Pm me your address, number and an alcoholic six pack of choice and we will work out a time.

Please note, if no alcoholic beverage is stipulated it will default to bourbon, and I will possibly drink half of them on my way out there

Colin use different nuts to hold the exhaust together. If you drive it more often those noises don't occur, i stopped driving mine for a while and the damn battery died :whistling:

maccas tonight?

gonna try and sort out a few northerners, and might come visit. ralf has his car back from Dan. and im sure he's keen for a nice drive

Gah stupid f**king cars. Went to fix my exhaust yesterday after its been dangling loose for a day or so and the f**king exhaust is bent. Bought another catback from option 1. Atleast now I've only got to fix the starter, noisy pulleys/belts and the turbos. And clean it. And repaint the front bar. And replace the drivers side mirror...f**king cars.

    • If you take the top half of the intake off you can unbolt the flap off the shaft and leave the shaft in there blocking the hole. Then you can remove the little vacuum canister off from under the manifold and get a spare vacuum line to run to the ECU. I can take some photos of it later. Probably best to get the vacuum source to the ECU sorted first though. Mine all worked mint with the base map from the GTT an I've pretty much let the closed loop sort the fueling and took 1 degree out of the whole timing map.
    • This IS something you also have to configure in Haltech (or at least I did in the past when going from onboard-to-ECU map sensor and an external MAP sensor in haltech land).
    • I'm hoping it's something as simple as the ECU is looking for an external MAP sensor, but he is trying to use the onboard MAP sensor.
    • You won't need to do that if your happy to learn to tune it yourself. You 100% do not need to do that. It is not part of the learning process. It's not like driving on track and 'finding the limit by stepping over the limit'. You should not ever accidently blow up an engine and you should have setup the ECU's engine protection to save you from yourself while you are learning anyway. Plenty of us have tuned their own cars, myself included. We still come here for advice/guidance/new ideas etc.  What have you been doing so far to learn how to tune?
    • Put the ECU's MAP line in your mouth. Blow as hard as you can. You should be able to see about 10 kPa, maybe 15 kPa positive pressure. Suck on it. You should be able to generate a decent vacuum to about the same level also. Note that this is only ~2 psi either way. If the MAP is reading -5 psi all the time, ignition on, engine running or not, driving around or not, then it is severely f**ked. Also, you SHOULD NOT BE DRIVING IT WITHOUT A LOAD REFERENCE. You will break the engine. Badly.
