Sorry slinky, no pro db meters available, just Dyno and BBQ

Look forward to seeing everyone out, we've cleared out the cars for undercover standing room, and afternoon weather is looking good.

thx to sam for organising the event

was pretty happy with what the car pulls

so what did your new car end up pulling? keen to check your new beast out :P

40 cars, Sausages, Drinks = $2000+ raised for Australian Cancer Research Foundation

Thanks everyone who helped and everyone who put their cars on.

Thanks for the night Sam. Good turnout,

Next time round i'l make sure i raise the car a little higher for you haha, However i didnt particularly mind taking home the award for lowest car of the night! =)

Hi Sam, Went back to chasers to get my AFR fixed and he re-dynoed my car and said they were fine, and he said that your dyno is broken.

Cheers

lol, wtf?

if i recall it was running far too lean...

Paul showed me the dyno sheet.. cars running beautifully.. its not running lean at all..

Its either Sam's dyno is wrong, or chasers and judging by pauls reaction, its sams..

Yet you post this 2 days ago?

Something isn't adding up, flashing like that = detonation = running mega lean.

My engine light was flashing BEFORE my chasers tune, (when it was tuned by RACE PACE by BEN)

Heres a message from the old owner of the car aswell..

VERY IMPORTANT - ONLY USE 98 RON fuel (Shell VPower / Synergy 8000 / etc), otherwise the engine may ping/detonate. When you install a Power FC the check engine light on the dash (yellow light, top right) becomes like a knock sensor. If you ever see this flash at you need to back off on the throttle. You can still drive the car OK but just don't put your foot down. This basically never happens but might if you fill up with 95RON, have a bad batch of fuel and/or it's a really hot day (40 degrees plus). Just take it easy on those days.

Its happened about 3 times in the 2 months i've owned it.. So not really sure what the problem is..

    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.  
    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go
