bought some yellow paint from supercheap (guessed the colour) and finally painted the rust under the mirrors and the knock on the front bumper

just loading it up atm for the trip to tassie on sunday :)

to the guys with the heat shielding, round the corners on the sheets and they will be less likely to peel off

Fitted some single piece braided brake lines to the front today, big thanks to Chuckie for the help (sourcing and fitting) :thumbsup:

What a difference! Already had slotted RDA 350Z rotors, EBC greenstuff pads and a master cylinder stopped so while it doesn't stop as well as my 32, it does pretty damn well for a bus. The braided lines have improved braking response tremendously, instant bite!

started installing the black interior! did 4 doors, the top half of the boot and the lower half of the dash. its gonna look good in black :)

lol my sister wrote her car off yesterday(well i hope it is) im gonna take her black V35 interior i might buy it back lol

Had a leak in the dump pipe repaired.

Polished the cam covers.

Polished the crossover pipe.

Replaced all the turbo manifold gaskets.

Inspected the turbo while it was off and its still in good nick.

:thumbsup:

its ok, mine was for under the mirrors and a scrape on the bumper so was better than it was

GB Swaybars went on yesterday- before it got stupid hot in Sydney. Back was easy, Front-one prick nut was putting up a fight. Rear sensor had to be re-aligned to fit because of the adjustable bits on the bar. Other than that, all smooth and good! Great improvement when driving. Will drive more :woot:

On the LHS rear sway I think they added some sort of roll sensor. Its a Bosch unit, that measures body roll via the bar movement. Can only think it does something for the AWD system, as there is no stability control. Maybe ABS...?

pity they didn't strengthen the rear mounts... I've got the same ones as everyone else. >_<

I replaced a sidelight this morning from the top. removed the airbox etc etc... very enjoyable. Hope it doesn't go again anytime soon- could they have found a harder to get to place?

now dump it! :P

First I have to pull some camber out of the rear as it's eatting tyres silly fast. Also have to get some springs made up for the front so I can drop it and keep the spring rate I want. I'm also needing some front camber arms and some SA spec bolt-ons..... :rofl2:

Then dropped :D

Made it to tamworth

The rad flush I did had moved all the crap about and the I think the rad is blocked, saw 111°c on the ecutalk display and had to start using the heater to cool it down :(

38°c out side and the heater on full = fail, just 1300 kms to go, temps are between 80 and 95 now, just don't have time to get it sorted cos we are tight on time :-(

We'll get there tho

111c wow thats not good at all :S hope you didn't cook anything mate

yeah it works out which way the car is turning and how much power to direct to the front wheels

i wonder if you can spin the rears or get it sideways easier now as the car will sit flatter? or maybe it will be worse?

    • Out of curiosity, how do you cover up the inspection hole? Surely it doesn't sit open like that, right? With grime and dirt coming in and oil going out?
    • Hi from Canada, Both of my calipers are starting to fail. My car is a 2005 M35 Stagea ARX and I can't seem to find any parts or any cross reference caliper that would fit my car. Is there a company or a similar caliper that would fit and I could replace the OEM one. Or if anyone knows where I can find a new OEM. Any help is very appreciated. Let me know!
    • Maf is a question mark but TPS  I have set at 0.47, the fact that I’m getting proper voltage range out of it with the key on leads me to believe it’s functioning properly. I’m getting proper voltages on basically everything. I still need to look up voltage ranges for z32 maf and test that 
    • Honestly no not at all, but it’s a very basic tune, it’s stock injectors q45 tps and z32 maf. Other than that it’s a completely stock base map. The file is from nistune and from my understanding if it was tune related I would be able to unplug maf and tps and it would still start even if it was a really shitty start. I have tried starting it with coolant temp, maf, and tps unplugged none of those 3 togethor or individually changes anything
