Well if you are not happy about it do something about it!

Had this discussion with Gordo this afternoon, chicken and egg syndrome I call it, (EDIT: Ack no I dont, Gordo called it that and I just stole it from him :D) well I wont knock you for having that attitude, but someones gotta get in and get their hands dirty, I've already got a dirty mind so why not have hands to match :(

I fully commend you for doing it too Cyrus and I'm 100% behind you... :(

But I don't want to join a club so I can make it better / fix it... I want to join a club so I can be proud of it, be involved in it, get some benefits, qualifications... The list goes on...

Yeah but if you get involved in something, isnt that inherantly making it better, meh anyway thanks for the :( but for now all the congratulations should go to slip, gary and Marc, because there would be no club without the work that they put into getting it up and running and where it is at today!

I see your point mate... It comes down to different personalitys I guess...

EG: I built a brand new house because I didn't want to spend the next 5 yrs fixing it up... Other people love the challenge of restoring a house, hence they buy a shitter cheap and fix it up...

Get it?

my new car is arriving in my driveway tomorrow.. going to be exciting!

Haven't seen it since its hit the country..

I guess I am also a bit worried as to what I might uncover lol.. Its all part of the fun..

Think I might get back into things a bit more now that I will have something new to play with :(

But houses don't have presidents, or wheels.. but they can have chickens! :confused:

    • Sorry I haven't been following all the detail, so you may have tried this. Does it idle with the tiniest bit of throttle you can add? You've mentioned the IACV, does it have an AAC valve and have you adjusted it at all (ie, screw the idle adjust screw all the way in, then back it out a couple of turns until idle is stable)?
    • 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.
