Bahahahahahaha!

Also, some one mentioned a guy flushed his engine with water, any one got a link, i gotta see that thread lol. How some people that stupid manage to survive till adult hood is beyond me.

oh there have been plenty of other great cockups. there was the guy who "ported and polished" his head by hooking the intake up to a bag of sand and then started the car. then there was the guy that came up with DEI, direct exhaust injection where the headers just fed back into the intake so it would be pressurised, just ignoring the fact that you need oxygen to make the fuel burn, and the oxygen gets burnt up with the fuel. i'm sure there have been others as well that i can't think of right now.

Lol thats ridiculous. Here is the link to the guy who decided to use water to flush the bad oil out of his Mustang. lol.

here is another good one, but goes to 65 pages though

Titled Spanish tuner

some mods in the thread

those are "sin grooves" "that will make the mixture travel faster to the centre of the chamber, thus improving efficiency"

theres heaps more, just check out the pics if you don;t have time to read

Ahh this one.. this guy aparently "tuned" a 4g63 motor.. I think when he started it, it was pissing fuel out from somewhere.. lol.(wouldnt even IDLE.. LOL)

btw love the new clutch held together by spot welds.. Should be good for 10Nm Torque. lol

lol there's an almost identical thread to this which has been sent to the wasteland, pretty sure the 'bag of sand in the intake' one was someone taking the piss, well thats what the original thread seems to say anyway.

BTW marc, the old GQ here has Exhaust Gas Recirculation from the headers back into the intake apparently for fuel economy or some other BS

i read all 65 pages of that spanish tuner thread, the last like 30 pages are just car club memebrs from arond the world checking in to say the thread reached their forums. The thread got 2 million views though.

But the 4g63 eclipse he "tuned" including XS power turbo that he lunched the blades on, one piece solid intercooler piping with no flex joints, one pice exhaust, welded clutch, leaking fuel system include fuel pickup 'bored out' with a hacksaw...wait for it... made 360 or so hp...on TWO BAR of boost. Needless to say it lunched more bits on second dyno run and by that stage the guy realised the world was watchin his idiocy an stopped posting updates. Well worth a read for a solid laugh! Oh, and he has the MOST pro respraying skills ever, you gotta check it out, waht with SAU Show n Shine comin up we could learn a thing or two...

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
