hey boostd, those straps on the back of your car, is there a purpose? or are they there just to look cool? cause they do  :D

Haha. Cheers Hippy. They are for looks more than anything. the lip is perspex with carbon fibre look film. Would probably snap with any decent pressure. A real 400R wing is a little out of the value for money side of things for me :D

AutoTrust, thanks for the complement.

Good to see there are others who know of the benifits if a 4 door (ie. have you ever been pulled over and defected, I havn't been yet)

I'd also like a copy of the video please.

Credit where credit is due. Nice front mount. I have been defected because of the stoopid blue lights i had in next to my indicators. If you have a minute or two (unless you have a dial up modem) check this link Photos taken at the last Vic cruise by Rianto (RS73). As usual the only 4 door present at the cruise! http://users.bigpond.com/rianto/sau_photos...os/elwood6.html :D

    • The final part arrived today to un-clampify and simplify the intake Who would have though a 1/2" hose stainless bulkhead fitting designed for below waterline bilge pumps would be what I needed Test fit on a 3" offcut I had laying around to see if it would work, and it worked a treat All going well the intake will be on its "final version" tomorrow 
    • Good luck on the weekend mate
    • Must have been an absolute nightmare to drive when the power steer was out, the rack ratio/wheel size/caster is all set up for power assistance
    • Welcome to SAU, what are you looking at buying?
    • I checked the injectors again (1 and 2, since they’re easiest to access) to make sure they weren’t clogged. Even though the entire fuel system had been cleaned, I wanted to be certain. Everything looked clean, so I reinstalled and connected everything. When I started the car to confirm everything was okay, it immediately revved up high, so I shut it off straight away. I checked to see if I’d missed a vacuum hose or something, but everything was connected. On the second attempt, the car ran without the high idle, but I noticed a distinct “compressed air” sound coming from the engine bay. Tracing the sound, I pushed injector #6 forward slightly and the noise stopped — it turned out it wasn’t seated properly, despite the fuel rail being bolted down. While holding it in place, the car idled steadily without stalling and ran for over 5 minutes. At this point, I pulled all six injectors out just in case I hadn’t seated them correctly or dirt had gotten onto the O-rings. Unfortunately, I discovered that I had damaged 3 out of 6 injectors (the OEM 270cc ones) during installation. So yes, this was my fault. Since only the pintle caps were damaged, I’ve ordered a Fuel Injector Service Kit from NZEFI to refurbish them. In the meantime, I reinstalled my new injectors – the car now idles fine for over 15 minutes without stalling. I have not attempted to drive it so far. It’s not perfect yet, as it hesitates when the throttle is pressed, but it’s a big improvement. Unplugging the IACV with the new injectors idles at around 800rpm, even with the IACV screw tightened fully. But this is probably due to tune.
