attn Miso: Are you replacing all your brakes mang or just the fronts? What are you doing with the old ones?

Just the fronts at the moment. Don't have any bigger calipers/rotors for the back yet.

Was thinking of selling the old set. You looking for some brakes for project alfa?

I am sure we can work something out in exchange for your assistance to fit the upgraded brakes, and maybe a upper thigh deep tissue massage

Yeah I'm thinking I might try and fit some 32 brakes to the alfa. Should stop it on a dime.

Just let me know when you got time.

When we get them off, you can just keep them.

You sir, are an extremely generous bosni-serbo-croat!

I shall have to at least buy you a carton of *insert preferred beverage here*

On a similar awesome note, I just found the old rears off my car, so that will make a nice semi-matching set, assuming I can find suitable rotors for the rear....

As to time, yeah well that's the issue...

Sat morning I think I'm out, Saturday arvo is a possibility, pending what everyone else is doing.

Sunday I'm probably out - although if that's the time that suits everyone I think I can make it work.

Next weekend is good, but Dan will be away, and his expertise will be useful when doing brakes. We could try to tackle them without him but? Le mans 24 hour is on too, always fun to have something to watch while mechanicalising

Thoughts?

Jason, what still needs doing on your car? You got those boost fittings sorted yet?

No probs, next sat arvo is free. Probably suits me best, as there is no footy in Bris for me to go and watch, and have no games on.

The weekend after is ok, but I am on call for work, so might have to spend a bit of time on the phone.

We can work out a carton of something, and you can assist me in drinking it.

That's excellent news, especially since the latest bp oil leak in the gulf of mexico. little baby seals are thanking you now for ridding them of excess oil.

I may be able to get my hands on some stocker 33 ones. Would that help?

Mechanical issues fall outside my area of expertise.

That would be my guess also, but its just a guess.

I was just after the technical terms sheesh

The flux capacitor has deteriorated causing a feedback interference loop with the syncromesh gear ionisation device, resulting in dilution of the mechanical lubrication fluid, causing it to evaporate in the combustion chamber and/or bypass the piston sealing devices.

Is that technical ? :happy:

Define technical :thumbsup:

dont fit.

That's what she said

It's like... putting too much air in a balloon... and... something bad happens!

      Strange issue RB25DET wont start

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.

      The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?

      I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.

      I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Yeah, I would have said the same. It makes me suggest that there are other things wrong, such that the ECU is totally unhappy with the broken sensor. The only other thought here is that maybe it is shorted, which might cause a different issue to the typical "disconnected" sensor.
