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?

sad day for music!

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

+1

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...

    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack. 
    • Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
    • In my head it does make sense to be a fuel problem since that is what I touched when cleaning the system. When I was testing with the fuel pressure gauge, the pressure was constantly 2.5 bar with the FPR vacuum removed. When stalling, the pressure was going up to 3.0 bar (which is how it should be on ignition).
    • ECUtalk pages don't mention they support the ABS computer (consult port has more than one CAN), so you might just need a different scan tool. But, I would expect ABS is a different light to the brake warning/handbrake light, do you see an ABS light come on for a few seconds when you turn the key from ACC to IGN? But since you said: I'd have a look at the ABS sensors in the rear hubs to make sure they are not damaged, disconnected etc.
    • OK, if it idles at 1000+ with the AAC, its not an idle airflow problem. The cold start valve just gives extra air when the engine is cold, but you have enough air without it to idle at 1000. I think you are back to a fuel problem, sorry. Can you see the fuel pressure staying constant or does it drop as the revs drop to a stall?
