Hello All,

There may be an easy or hard answer to this.

Basically I would love for my AC to blow more air, does anyone know if the fan speed can be made to blow faster than the current max as it really doesn't blow as full on as I would like. . As setting 1 is barely blowing. .

Cheers

Setting 1 is not meant to blow much air thats why its setting 1, if its not pumping out much air on the fifth setting then maybe you should be worried.

A simple AC regas with colder air coming out of the vents will (or should!) make it feel better to the point where you really wont want it on the max setting for any long periods.

Yep AC Regas is to be done shortly. . But I want a Typhoon on 5, and a decent breeze on settings 2-4. . . . .

Hey Jules, have you replaced your Pollen Filter? If it's blocked solid; your fan might as well be blowing through a brick wall...

On 5, my fan would just about blow you out the window.thumbsup.gif

I still need to sort out my thermo fan. Did these things come with a factory unit? Mine looks like it's running an aftermarket thermo fan.

Yours has an HDI intercooler kit right?

Factory fan won't fit behind it, so it would've been swapped for a thinner unit.

Yep I have the Blitz. It's wired up but uses scotch locks and they have failed me about six thousand times in the last month so it's probably them. :rolleyes:

Dale your a man of many good ideas. . I'll order one and replace anyway. . . it's probably the culprit I reckon. .

How have those SS brackets for the front sways/links holding up. .

After 5 years I have finally clocked up 80k!

I tried a bunch of different ways to mount a H/D link, and was never really happy with the clearance at all adjustment positions. The OEM links are strong & reliable; I haven't heard of anyone damaging one, and by the time I re-invented the wheel, there wouldn't have been a cost benefit.

      Even more fun, leave all the ADAS stuff plugged in, but in different locations, hopefully avoid any codes!   And honestly, all these new cars with their weird electronics. Pull all the electronics out Duncan, and just shove an aftermarket ECU and if needed a trans controller in, along with a PDM. Make it run basic but race car styled!

      To follow up a question from earlier too since I had the front bar off again (fking!) This is what is between the bumper and the drivers side wheel And this is the navigator side, only one thing but its a biggy! So basically....no putting coolers in the wheel arches without a lot of moving other stuff. Assuming I move to properly race prepping this car I'll take that job on and see how the computers respond to removing a whole bunch of ADAS modules

      So I prepped the car for another track day on Wednesday (will be interesting to see coolant temps post flushing out and the larger reservoir, with a forecast of 3-14 being 20o cooler than last time I took it out). Couple of things to mention; since I am just driving the car and not taking a support vehicle, I took the rear seats out and just loaded the back up Team Trackday style. Look at all that space! To cover off removing the rear seat....it is weird (note the hybrid is probably different because it wouldn't have folding rear seats) Basically, you remove the lower seat base, very similar to a r series but it is a clip that pulls forward to release the base rather than it being bolted down. Easy Then, you need to remove the side section of the rear seat on each side. There is a 14mm head nut at the bottom of the side piece, the it slides upwards off a hook at the top to release; you also need to unhook the seatbelt from the loop at the top. Then the centre piece is weird. You need to release/fold the seats forward with the tab in the boot on each side From there, there are 2,x12mm headed bolts holding the rear of each seat to the folding bracket, under the trim between the rear seat and the boot (4x christmas tree clips there, they suck). The seat is out but you can see where the bolts attach to the bracket

      As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year.

      I would put a fuel pressure gauge between the filter and the fuel rail, see if it's maintaining good fuel pressure at idle going up to the point when it stalls. Do you see any strange behavior in commanded fuel leading up to the point when it stalls? You might have to start going through the service manual and doing a long list of sensor tests if it's not the fuel system for whatever reason.
