Haha thanks man, when you're at the bottom the only way out is up! Drove the car to SYDNEY, from Melbourne. Got there, no issues. Got back home last night, no issues. Like a f**king champion

alright my niggas.
some bitter sweet news, yet again.
first things first (im the realest), The boys at Racepace were AMAZING! i cant fault their service, in four days they completed the works required, and had a solid crack at tuning the car, many now know as, the big blue kunt.
unfortunately, the person that previously worked on it, who i wont mention from now on, did a questionable job, so have to fix his mistakes and sort out some serious boost leaks before we can continue and hit the numbers we were expecting.
that being said though.
the car now has a steady idle, happily idles at 900rpm, is whisper quiet, even with a decat and drives so smoothly now, i want to drive it anywhere.
i f**king love these guys!
so next up, is all cold side and hotside pipes off to go over ALL THE LINES!

Should have gone to Racepace in the first place.

At least it's fixed now.

update time.
have been insanely busy over the last few months so, not much was done to the old girl.
my mates bought me some numberplates for my birthday, i bought some wheels and basically fixed all the little things on the car that annoyed me.
now have a working ciggarette lighter, head unit and heater.
all is looking good, but we have some HUGE plans for next year, which will certainly blow a few minds.

itll be stupid, but sometimes, enough is enough.

Looking good. Kicking myself - Had to hop back in the car and leave in a rush at the Daylesford cruise, didn't get a change to take a look at this.

      R32 GTS (RB20DE) Injectors Replacement

      By GabsReDeal · Posted

      I checked the injectors again (1 and 2, since they’re easiest to access) to make sure they weren’t clogged. Even though the entire fuel system had been cleaned, I wanted to be certain. Everything looked clean, so I reinstalled and connected everything. When I started the car to confirm everything was okay, it immediately revved up high, so I shut it off straight away. I checked to see if I’d missed a vacuum hose or something, but everything was connected. On the second attempt, the car ran without the high idle, but I noticed a distinct “compressed air” sound coming from the engine bay. Tracing the sound, I pushed injector #6 forward slightly and the noise stopped — it turned out it wasn’t seated properly, despite the fuel rail being bolted down. While holding it in place, the car idled steadily without stalling and ran for over 5 minutes. At this point, I pulled all six injectors out just in case I hadn’t seated them correctly or dirt had gotten onto the O-rings. Unfortunately, I discovered that I had damaged 3 out of 6 injectors (the OEM 270cc ones) during installation. So yes, this was my fault. Since only the pintle caps were damaged, I’ve ordered a Fuel Injector Service Kit from NZEFI to refurbish them. In the meantime, I reinstalled my new injectors – the car now idles fine for over 15 minutes without stalling. I have not attempted to drive it so far. It’s not perfect yet, as it hesitates when the throttle is pressed, but it’s a big improvement. Unplugging the IACV with the new injectors idles at around 800rpm, even with the IACV screw tightened fully. But this is probably due to tune.

      I wanted to try and preserve the front bumper as long as possible, they're not cheap and are made to order in Japan. Taking inspiration from my previous K11 Micra build where I made an undertray for the Impul bumper, I did the same for this BN Sports bumper but a little slimmed down.  This time round I only made a 'skid plate' (if that's the correct wording/term) for just the bumper surface area, the Micra version covered the gap like an undertray. Starting off with a sheet of mild steel approx. 0.9mm thick 4ft x 2ft in size. I traced around the bumper, cut it out and cleaned the edges. Luckily I was able to get two halves from one piece of metal In the video I installed it as is, but I've since then I've removed it to spray and add a rubber edging trim. The rubber trim is suitable for 1-2mm and it's a really nice tight fit. The bolts had to be loosened due to the plates being too tight against the bumper, the trim wouldn't push on I used some stainless M6 flat headed bolts for a flusher finish (rather than hex heads poking down), I believe this style fastener is used for furniture too incase you struggle to source some. The corner's are a little wider, but this may be an advantage incase I get close to bumping it  The front grill got some attention, finally getting round to repairing it. Upon removal one fixing pulled itself out of the plastic frame, one side is M8 that fixes inside of the frame, where as the other side is M5. Not knowing I could get replacements, I cut down an M8 bolt, threaded it inside the frame along with a decent amount of JB Weld.  The mesh was replaced to match the bumper. One hole on the bonnet/hood had to be drilled out to 8mm to accommodate the new stud, once the glue had set it could be refitted. I think the reason the grill was double meshed was to hide the horn/bonnet latch (which makes sense) but I much prefer it matching the bumper Bumper refitted and it's looking much better IMO The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bVZP35io9MA
