So I take it the workshop doors be open on Monday? If they are and I'm not too rooted from the weekend, I'll grab the trailer and make a trip up to yours for the bumper etc to get it out of your way.

Back into it this week and a GTR recevied some enduro preparation.

Front and rear diff coolers

Transfer case cooler and a cooler for the seq hollinger.

The coolers all have air guides to prevent damage and to force air towards the core.

Weve used top shelf tilton pumps and they are being controller by independant temp switches in each diff etc.

The car also got a rather large fuel cell and fuel system revamp with a dry break filler and tank venting for fast fills and 0 fuel spilling.

Photos of the tank latter once the boot is finished off.

Next week have the insight motorsports S2000 to re cage and an EVO 7 in for a mild steel cage.

On average a basic half starts at $660 and can go up to $1300.

A full cage starts at $2400 and can go a high as you like.

Most full cages people opt for a few extra bars over a basic cage and they end up spending around $3000.

The majority of half cages end up around the $990 mark once you add things like harness bar, double diagonals etc.

Just a quick mention for a heap of people who have pm'er and emailed.

I'm closing off orders this coming Friday the 16th.

Orders placed and paid for before Friday will be completed on time. For a week or two after the 16th I wot be taking orders.

We are planning a renovation of the workshop to further increase the fabrication equipment we can fit on the ground level. New mezzanine floor is being put up to store the supercars on which will double floor space for fab work.

Expected down time will be 7-10 days but for guys who are needing sumps and other components urgently get in this week.

I was actually looking at a photo of the "big bannana" in coffs harbor just before.

The nanna is ever so slightly larger than the Vw kombi,

That friggin trailer is way larger than the kombi. there is a new bigger banana, we just need merchandise now!!

    • 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.
