Seeing as you went the whole Z-tune style kit. Did you think about doing the pumped front guards?

I know people have mixed opinions on them. Some angles it looks tough and some angles it looks a bit awkward :/

Nah Im not going to get them, more than happy with the way it is

Looking good mate, she has changed a bit since I saw her last that's for sure.

Yeh thanks mate, its moving along nicely

Car looks absolutely immaculate mate congrats !!!

I have one question for you though - what size cooler did you end up going (from the pic it looks relatively thick and like 100mm) and did you need any trimming of the bar to get the cooler to fit on properly ??

Cheers

Yeh 100mm thick, couldnt fit it in the standard front bar, but no trimming required with the z tune front bar

awsome looking car mate,

Unsure as they were on the bonnet when i bought it.

Also power figure is sitting at 320kw.....happy with that

Thanks mate im really happy with it.

So theres a few people that knew this but I have bene afghanistan for the past 6 months and getting upgrades to my car while I have been away, all thanks to my partner and a few mates for helping me out. I got home a few days ago and finally got to see my car. Saw it at the airport and was over the moon with it.... drivability is unreal, super responsive and quick, and it it smooth to drive and easy to drive. This was the aim of the car all along. The cams also sound amazing.

Firstly very nice car dude. But after reading everything i hope GT auto refunded your outlay on the D-Jetro, shouldn't they have gone to the Haltech straight away? All too often you hear these upgade of all ready upgraded parts before a car even leaves a shop stories. Its great that it puts a smile on your face coz many times no matter what some people spend they end up bitter with results. Again car looks the goods ;-)

Yeh dont worry they have been more than good to me for the tuning of the haltech and other work.

Yeh it certainly gets there quick and yes happy with how the car drives. To sort out a little bit of fuel economy im going to get the haltech wideband dual controller kit.

    • The final part arrived today to un-clampify and simplify the intake Who would have though a 1/2" hose stainless bulkhead fitting designed for below waterline bilge pumps would be what I needed Test fit on a 3" offcut I had laying around to see if it would work, and it worked a treat All going well the intake will be on its "final version" tomorrow 
    • Good luck on the weekend mate
    • Must have been an absolute nightmare to drive when the power steer was out, the rack ratio/wheel size/caster is all set up for power assistance
    • Welcome to SAU, what are you looking at buying?
    • 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.
