yay! got the stag back!

now for the running in period.... :thumbsup:

Awesome! :thumbsup:

In other news, I've passed my Personal Trainer workshop/exam which ran over Saturday and Sunday. 2 days of full on revision, screening, testing and programming. Another 2 more months then I'll be a qualified Master Trainer. :D My current qualifications means that I can walk into a gym, and if I tell you you're doing it wrong ... then you are! :P

... but I'm feeling it today. The exams were physically and mentally draining.

Did you build the motor?

I paid Boostworx 4k to pull out and strip down the engine, to supply new CP pistons, clean head for reassembly, completly recondition the block including bore/hone/refacing, polish the crank, supply & fit new ACL race bearings & new welch plugs, new MLS head gasket, turbo lines, etc. Tune will be included in a thousand kms time, just have a hundred to spend on fluids/filters. Drives nicely, got home mid-arvo and refitted the big brake kit - yet to test. Really needs a wash and clean inside/out.

happy with the work performed.

Thanks mate, good on you. Would be a very interesting course to study.

I'll be getting myself to Southbound gym as soon as I can afford to; time to rebuild my body as I exercise my mind with my study. Almost finished going over the Anatomy text book, once finished will start on some note taking.

Ive been down a very dark road in my life for a number of years now. Im glad Ive come through it, and am very positive about what my future holds for me. With hard work now over the next 4years Im sure my life experience will help me to being able to help others.

Since your now a qualified trainer Rueben could you advise me on leg exercises that are possible for me to do at the gym considering Im without patellas? Calf raises (weight stack over shoulders), hamstring curls, maybe leg press but not sure about that tbh, & I doubt I can do leg extensions; certainly cant do squats. Not sure what else I'll be able to try?

my 32 is getting picked up tomorrow.

the soon to be new owner asked if i would register the car, and he would pay me back so he can tow it behind a car rather than hire a trailer/tow truck.

i said no on the basis that i do not want the car freshly registered in my name, cos i dont want the risk of wearing all the fines that could potentially come.

THEN he asked for the VIN, plate and engine number so he can register it in his name.

i said no cos then he could possibly be the legal owner before the sale...

he has not responded.... what could possibly be next???

Why didn't you register it?

Once he has signed the disposal notice there is no chance that the fines would come back onto you. You can also fill out a notice of disposal and hand that to Motor reg if your really worried.

i would have registered if that was true.

the disposal notice has no effect on a fine when it is issued. if the new owner did not trasfer rego, i would still be the registered owner and potentially get speeding/red light fines and have to stat dec them into the new owners name.

Yeah when I bought my car in Melbourne, the previous owner agreed to leave it registered as long as I signed a stat dec saying I'd taken ownership. Made it heaps easier being able to drive it for a week or so before I was able to get to regency to swap the rego.

i couldnt count the number of fines that i have seen that have been incurred in the previous owners name regardless of disposal notices, it may be a data entry problem/human error, but i have no faith that i would not get the potential fine

you'd be fine Carl......worse come to worse, you sign a stat dec if a fine comes your way with proof of sale....end of story

I sold a Honda Prelude years ago and incurred 2 speed fines over a 6 mth period cause he never did the transfer.....all I had to do is provide proof of sale bud

When I bought my GTR off Writeoff, he happily gave me all of those details because I needed them a) to get the secured loan and b) to insure the car with shannons so that I was covered *the moment I got in the vehicle* (wasnt gonna fall into THAT trap after doing my 12 months of research)

And if he ever had any problems, he could have always printed out his bank statement showing a 5 figure bank transfer from my bank account...

      R34 25GT Engine Light 21

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      Oil change does not trigger code 21. Code 21 is for coilpacks primary side connection. You can try to clear the code with a battery disconnect, hold down the brake pedal to drain capacitors through the brake lights with the ignition on for 10-15 seconds before you reconnect the battery. I have seen R35 coil conversion permanently cause this code with no ill effects so it might be the resistance it wants to see isn't quite right on one or more coilpacks. Could be inside the ECU, could be the harness, could be a coil. You can test it all if you want or just ignore until the car actually starts misfiring.

      I forgot you have a Nistune ECU. Use Nistune to do all the tests I mentioned instead of faffing with 30+ year old electrical connectors. You can read MAF volts off that too, there are reference values in the service manual to tell you roughly what it should be in different conditions.

      No. I think it might be the AFM. Hence the use of the terms "swaptronics", which implies the use of swapping out electronics for the purpose of diagnosis. It's about the only way to prove that a small/niggling/whatever problem with an AFM or a CAS or similar is actually caused by that AFM/CAS/whatever. A known good item swapped in that still gives the same problem is likely to be caused somewhere else. They're all the same. Spraying AFMs with cleaner is an each way bet between cleaning it and f**king it.

      Can you mount the ATTESA pump in other locations?

      Oh wow! This might actually work amazingly. Do you know the ratio of the diff? I was told the only thing you need to make sure of is if the front & rear diff ratios are the same. Ours is a 4.083 Thanks!

      You think its the AFM? I know its a common issues on R32s. I find it coincidental how this issue raised right after cleaning the fuel system. As everything except the fuel system was fine before. I tried running it with the IACV unplugged but did not notice a difference and still stalled. However, the RPM gauge is not in the cluster right now, so I will need to connect the laptop again and use Nistune to check the RPM. I will check this weekend.
