DIY BMW repairs and maintenance is cheap and easy.

Australia rips us off because it's considered luxury car

Just buy spare parts from America and you are set.

My dad took his BMW to service centre was quoted thousands of dollars to fix, we bought all the parts delivered from America for a couple hundred and did it our self.

Some parts even cheaper than skyline parts.

Brown - Auxiliary Air Control

Purple - Fast Idle Control Device

So as long as the brown is connected, it should be fine

thanks again, enough info to find the exact information in the SR20 forum.

so brown is IACV, pretty important.

the other (I'm almost certain) is an on/off switch from ECU to boost idle when AC is on or high power steering pressure (full lock). explains why I kept stalling at DECA on the skid pan. it's all makes sense now

shopping for GTX's now... tempted for external gate but fair bit of effort involved...

I remember first time I met Aaron at Phillip Island and he said "chuck a GTX in there" "nah..."

    • 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.
