hmm... the coils seemed to be fine when i checked them, i did the coil test by disconnecting one and seeing if the engine kept firing or not. i guess ill have a closer look. i wouldn't expect water could get down that far, but one of my coils was wet. ill have another go at them i suppose. i replaced the plugs, so they're fine

Heh, aren't i red faced, my AFM was clogged with my air filter. its completely buggered, falling to pieces etc. thanks a lot for all your help though guys, at least i know what to look for next time.

ok going by my experience, a few cars i did had symptoms you had ,

FAULTY AFM.

FAULTY TURBO (Bearings or bushes and shaft wear )

FAULTY plugs

FAULTY coils

FAULTY governor valve on side of planum

FAULTY fuel reg and or pump maby filter test with fuel meter

FAULTY crank angle sensor and or knock sensor

LEAKING BOV, pipes , intercooler.

clean out all harneses that may have came in contact with water especially crank angle sensor and knock sensor ...

proccess of elimination mate start from least expensive too expensive .

D'oh - oh well, it's good you got it sorted out.

Hay if you've got a stock airbox and need a stock filter element, I've got one you can have for nothing.

I've actually got an HKS Pod, it came with the car, but the filter is stuffed now.

I'm actually thinking about getting a stock airbox reinstalled and a high flow filter, is there any difference between this and a Pod? i don't want to lose power, but the Pod is so bloody noisey

Well, when I got my car it had a HKS pod filter too !!

I went from the HKS pod that was in a cold air box, to a stock airbox with a high flow panel filter.

The only difference I found was that it was 10 million times quiter...... I noticed no difference in power at all.

With the highflow panel filter I can still hear a little bit of induction noise, and I can hear the turbo spool up now (really high pitched whine, that goes so high it goes out of range of your hearing :D ) but it's 100% better than the HKS pod.

Little bit of induction noise..... That's not a HKS pod filter. They are one of the loudest pods around.

I actually found it pretty anoying. Taking off normally it'd sound like your were going flat out.

Much nicer to drive with the stock box with a high flow panel filter.

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
