i am currently looking around for some ACL heat shielding ( http://www.aclperformance.com.au/prod_heatshield.htm ) but i have not been able to find anyone that sells it other than one listing on ebay (which isn't the size i am after)

Does anyone know of a shop that sells it?

In WA Auto one got it in for me and the time before that I picked some up from Supercheap .....in Canberra.....hmmm.....try Ruddy.

Actually do you need heat shielding in Canberra?

i tried supercheap earlier this week and they didnt have anything.

I need something to shield the abs lines/abs unit/wiring in the corner from the heat off the dump pipe as there isnt much room

Ring these guys for a dealer to buy from, they are OE suppliers to Holden for heatshield etc and are cheaper than ACL (who coincidently have gone bust according to media today!)

That DCI place sounds expensive by the looks of it they offer a cad designed specially formed shield i am only after a single sheet i don't need it mass produced.

As a last resort you could try wreckers and hunt around under the bonnet of an XR6 turbo - theres plenty of heat shielding in there.

If you ring them you can buy single sheets from their dealers and they are cheaper than ACL, I actually know because I have actually bought some (unlike yourself it seems) which is why I suggested it!!!

I hope you find someone with stock.....because ACL went broke today http://www.smh.com.au/small-business/car-i...90826-eyq1.html

f**k, time to credit card RB20 pistons/rods/bearings just incase haha... was going to get custom and go ~9:1 comp once i sold the stagea

    • Check the injectors flow evenly, and are actually flowing what you and the ECU think they should be flowing. If it's starting up on starter fluid, you have a fuel issue. Is it possible under cranking your fuel pump is turning off?   The harness you replaced, is that the whole engine harness? Do yourself a test, and drop the old harness on and plug it into the Z32 ECU. It's possible they've wired things different. From memory S1 to S2 is different in RB25 and you may have a wrong loom
    • I haven’t pulled the injectors to watch them spray yet but they are clicking from the cas and all of the spark plugs are wet with fuel. I’ve thought the cylinders were being flooded from the beginning and was hoping fuel pressure would fix it. Tonight I am going to pull the rail and watch the injectors spray. Don’t know how to test/diagnose if the plugs are firing in correct sequence but that should be a timing thing and as far as timing goes my car still has the half moon for the cas can only install it 1 way. And my mechanical timing is 100% correct I posted photos above. Confirmed with the balancer on and off. 
    • I checked spark on all cylinders and they all visually have spark with the plug pulled and grounded, but plug 1 is the only one that fouled. This was a running swap that blew up and was rebuilt by a machine shop, put a new wiring specialties harness and did all gaskets, studs, and bolts while it was out.  compression is 135-150 across all cylinders. Aside from that from my understanding with the z32 ecu and maf the car should start regardless. The wiring for TPS and the dual 02 sensor/ dual knock sensor stuff shouldn’t actually stop the car from starting or even running well, (just slightly rich)  they just give fault codes. Car supposedly is supposed to start as long as you have z32 afm and ecu with the nistune base map and that’s info coming from a well known and trusted tuner who does a lot with SR/RB (Rsenthalpy). After more trouble shooting today where I’m at right now is that the cas is sending signal to the injectors they click while spinning the rotor, Fuel pressure is now set at 43psi, all cylinders have good compression and all of the plugs looked great (just wet with fuel) except for cylinder 1 which was very black (cylinder 1 has 150psi compression). all of the coils generate spark if pulled out and grounded out on the head. On the fuel pump car just pops into the exhaust. On starting fluid car will fire off. Hard to tell if all cylinders are firing off but definitley a couple. sounds like all of them but it’s only for 3-5 seconds hard to tell. 
    • Final update!!! Got the front bar fitted and sprayed and all sorted now. My cutouts worked great and the indicators aren’t just falling off. 😂  
    • Is this a brand new LSD? if so, have you followed any break/bed in procedure for it? Usually involves heaps of figure 8 patterns, a fluid flush.
