lil progress

i got my car brought home yesterday so i could continue to do more work on the interior.

its a bit difficult getting from templestowe to clayton to do stuff on the car with no licence, so this weekend ill be ripping out the cage and the 2 brides. brides are going and ill be replacing them with sparco fixed backs or bride zeta 3, i have a set of sparco evo's at home but they are a lil snug for my manly/overweight frame. i want seats that are fia approved and also the cage is going coz im going the full cage, with carbon side intrusion bars :whistling:

the rb30 block is also at the machinists atm so it will be there for a lil while, whilst all this is happening ill be getting more body work done. when the cage is being done the engine bay, cabin and the boot will all be seam/stitch welded (possibly around the doors as well) and vu from dt panels will be fitting my new body kits whis will one day get here from the states.

it comprises of some seriously awesome shit haha

- carbon bonnet

- carbon boot

- carbon side skirts z tune style

- carbon rear pods z tune style

- carbon z tune front guards

- carbon front bumper

- carbon bolt on 60mm rear flares :teehee:

- carbon front splitter with 2 billet rods

- carbon front caards

- carbon radiator air guide

i think having the 2 tone effect of white to black is gonna be f**king awesome

im sending my headlights off to headlights plus to get polished.

ive also decided to keep the stereo in the car as well but ill move the amps to under rear seat passenger footwells seeing as u cant sit there anyway. also retrimming the rear seats in the same fabric as the drivers and passenger seats.

    • My bad, I unplugged the one underlined in red instead of yellow before. With the car started, after unplugging the IACV (the one underlined in yellow), it idled at around 400/500 for 3 seconds before stalling. Attempting to start the car without the IACV will not start the car.   It does stutter and sputter for around 5 seconds before dying. However, immediately after starting it, you can already hear some slight sputters from the exhaust.   It won't start with the AFM unplugged. If it is when the car has already started, it stalls in a few seconds.   Yesterday, I did take some logs using Nistune of 3 scenarios. Car idling till it stalls Car idling and unplugging the IACV Car idling and removing the AFM I also have some previous logs of when the Car is idling till it stalls and when driving and it cuts. I am not really knowledgeable enough to understand what to look for. After every test, car idles rougher and rougher, until I have to stop. It will be fine the day after.
    • There is no difference between a 17x8 and an 18x8. The total diameter of the tyre needs to remain +/- the same (so you don't mess up the gearing, speedo reading, and clearance when turning front wheels..... so you just need to use a lower profile tyre on th 18 than you do on the 17. /rocket surgery.
    • I thought the same to start with. But then I thought it was one of those LCAs where the end of the ARB goes through a bushing in the LCA itself, instead of having an end link.
    • Yeah - I mean, go the other way. Smaller range. Not larger.
    • To re-cap, I bought: https://www.alibaba.com/product-detail/Lsailt-8G-Infiniti-Q50-Q60-2014_1601171829627.html?spm=a2756.trade-list-buyer.0.0.2cd476e9FTIlKE As you can see, if I bought 20 it was $653, but I bought 1 so it was $1,170. I was very tempted to buy 2 and resell 1 at 25% cheaper. @MBS206, I am not sure if they do a Kluger one, here is their list but it might be there under a global model name: http://www.lsailt.com/product/android-interface?page=1 Keep in mind these full android replacements have basically all the bits a phone does (cpu, ram, storage, wifi, bluetooth, usb interfaces) other than a screen (it uses a host), thus the $800+ cost. Android Auto screen mirroring is MUCH cheaper as it's just a cut down shell, input mirroring and output mirroring BTW I also need that "screen off" feature, it is much harder to see wildlife even if a dash is reasonably dark. Both the Fuga and V37 have display off buttons for night use, they just come back on for a second or 3 if you interact with it, eg skip a song.
