Wow, what a journey!  She looks nice after the paint job, nice and white again!  I'm sure it will be pretty amazing to see it roll out of the container back in Oz!

What took you to Georgia in the first place?  Not a country I know a lot about really.

 

it was SAU's fault,  when I was posting flat out here tuning skylines a guy called Guricha got me to remote tune his cars in Georgia and it all just took off from there.

Yes she looks really nice,  it needs some work like a engine strip down and check and running gear etc but that should not be too hard.

Such a cool thread and great to see this update, congrats on the car.

I spent much of 2021 (while our country lost the plot with lockdowns) living in Tbilisi and I thought of and re-read this.  Georgia is my favourite country, I love almost everything about it, I can't wait to get back.

Hey mate!  Yes I agree it is great,  especially when you know alot of people there,  did you ever go to Mclarens Irish pub there?  I spent lots of time there it is great.

I love Tbilisi in the winter,  its just amazing when it snows.

 

I picked up the car yesterday and it is now sitting in my workshop,  I have not been able to raise a spanner to it because I just keep pacing around it in disbelief that it is actually here in my workshop.

We didn’t unfortunately, we spent a fair bit of time in old town, but lived in Vake so did most of our drinking around there 😂

Shame we left in November before it got too cold, I heard a lot of people say how beautiful it is around Christmas. 
 

Glad to hear you got the car safely!

When i went there in dec 2019 i stayed in Guram's spare unit he had at the time in Vake,  great spot in the city there!

 

I let fireworks off the balcony for NYE on 13th floor haha

    • 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.
    • 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.
