yeah i was watching a movie last night and felt like my eyes were normal for a bit lol.

okay not much progress, besides booking it in for a tune with a very very well known RB workshop who visits melbourne here and there :)
so all that is left is get some money together for the ID1000s and fix the earth issue in the dash that is stopping the climate control and head unit from turning on

i had a Powerfc plugged in with a stock basemap and a 5k limiter (because still running it in)

Bro m not sure what to expect with the new story but what I know is you're the most unlucky son of a b!tch I know, so I sincerely hope this is good news lol

Edited by gtr judd

had a photoshoot lined up.
besides little things like belt squeels etc, the car was perfect.
washed it etc on friday night. it was looking pretty as ever :)
picked up my panel beater and off we went, to meet the photo dude.
long story short, smokes billowing out the driver side of the bonnet. have a look at the PFC and everything is in order.
da f**k?

pull over, mate pops the bonnet. f**kING FIRE!
THE FUSEBOX IS ON FIRE!
like a man on a mission, zayn empties his sprite into the fusebox and puts out the fire.
we stood there and laughed, and laughed and laughed, and maybe called a towtruck. but laughed again,
it could have been SO MUCH WORSE.

fast forward to this week end.
new bodyloom is in. i dont know why it caught fire, but i suspect its the bodgy wiring job by the previous owner.
should be good to go on saturday :)

soz. was up watching ross kemp docos.

booked in for a tune at Racepace.
the excitement is mounting. the car has been running beautifully, and it seems like this motor is very very torquey. all it wants to do is kill tyres lol

Untuned... Smokes tyres... Those two should never be in the same paragraph. :domokun:

You got injectors yet? I haven't heard from you for a quote mate... The Xspurt 1000's are on special at the moment. ;)

    • Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?
    • Hey mate,  I have a set, one is slightly damaged but wont be noticable once installed.  Shoot me a message if your still after them 
    • I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
    • You have a knack for photography my friend. It makes the 86 look like a complete bucket. The 34 went with you to Europe and back. It's special. (we all feel the same about our 'shitboxes' that every bystander seems to absolutely love)
