Hahaha Martin is now under more pressure than me for updates :P

Asked JEM for updates, waiting on them.... Will update the thread as soon as i know where it is up too....

Adam is working on the wiring today and is confident it will start on Monday, the fuel in the tank was stale so it requires cleaning before the 044 is dropped in for startup......

Possibly driving this home next week if everything goes smoothly, but it is a car..... And I've worked on it.... So I won't get too excited just yet....

In saying that the car is already booked for the July SAU Newy meet'n'greet, Nirimba Texi day and Marulan track day so I am hoping it's all good!

You know will be all good

Only issue will be the traffic driving home : )

All this power and about 20 highway patrol between start and finish of f3 : (

They won't know...... It's stock remember :D

:laugh: ^

Farkin, shouldn't have said anything about mine lol, you're all getting waaaaay ahead of me :P Now no one is going to enjoy my thread as much as I am because it will seem such an anti-climax :laugh:

Hope all goes well with your car man, but I'm sure it will all be fine. You're not retarded like me lol.

Edited by Hanaldo

Hahahaha you said you wanted motivation :D

Yeah car should be OK... And I am looking forward to a phone call saying its started and is running smoothly on the dyno ;)

    • My thought is if you were just moving it forward and the upstream geometry remained the same, then no difference at all. But because the current one has the filter direct into the AFM inlet, you effectively have the best chance of a completely symmetric air flow profile upstream, and in, the AFM, whilst the aftermarket inlet thingo has a (small, to be sure) bend between the filter and the AFM. That would bias the flow to the outside of the bend (downstream of the bend) which might well reduce the size of the signal seen by the AFM, for the same total flow rate. Having said that: If you're proposing to make your inlet look like a hybrid of your existing one and the aftermarket one, such that there is no bend where the filter is clamped on... then I say it will be just fine. If there is going to be such a bend, then, if you can align the insertion of the AFM blade such that it is at right angles to the plane of the bend, then there is a better than even chance that the centreline velocity where the blade is will remain more or less the same, and the velocity will just be a little faster to the outside of that, and just a little slower to the inside. **This is not professional investment advice and you should consult a suitably qualified ouija board, tea leaves or the intestines of a goat for more accurate prognostication.
    • Hi Tao, Thanks for your reply.  It's been a while and I managed to get the valve stem seals replaced with the head on the car.  Unfortunately this didn't solve my issue, the car still smokes a lot after idling (to be honest during idle you can see a bit of blue smoke from the exhaust), same after deceleration. I will try disconnecting the valve cover breathers, do I leave the PCV valve in? By engine oil drain pipe, do you mean the turbo oil drain?
    • What about if you just give it direct 12v and earth?
    • Hi guys . Can someone help me  I bought an Android screen for my Nissan fuga but it won't turn on   
    • My guesstimate, with no real numbers to back it up, is it won't effect it greatly at all.its not a huge change in position, and I can't see the air flow changing from in turbulence that much based on distance, and what's in front of it. Johnny and Brad may have some more numbers to share from experience though.
