Arrrgh! Damn printer wont work so i cant fill in the form just yet, can i just make payment to secure a spot??

Also, dumb question for you, with the Fire Extinguisher will the SCA $30 do? And if its mounted off a plate behind the passanger seat or something does that count? I dont really want it in plain sight as the whole build on my car revolves around looking stock....

Fire extinguisher:

This is the trickiest bit, due to installation.

$30 from Autobarn (or similar). There's some threads around where people have mounted their extinguisher under the back seat; Chubbs posted one ages ago, but I'm having trouble finding the link at the moment. Anyone who'd like to post it, it would be appreciated.

Hey, I can make a PDF with a form in it if that helps? That way you can fill it in and save it (hopefully). Oh wait, yeah, gotta print to sign, my bad.

As for mounting the extinguisher: By "under" the back seat I kinda mean in the rear footwell... kinda. Will try and photochop what I mean!

oh i found something. if you buy an extinguisher with a bracket, then mount it to this bolt:

it's the bolt that helps hold the bottom of the rear seat down.

that's what i've done; with the passenger seat back, you can barely see it.

Yep, thats brilliant.... I was trying to work out off the seat bolts or something, completely forgot about that one!!! Will go buy one this arvo :D

As for the forms, i have a printer guy coming to sort it out for me tomorrow..... JUST make sure i have a spot :woot:

just make sure the extinguisher has a metal bracket not plastic..

drill out the hole if need be and just leave it there forever like most of us have.

Send me the money now as it will take a day or 2 to clear into the account.. dont worry you will be safe for a spot there are only 3 of us atm

Hahaha well Racer boy, i just found the motivation too ;)

Ummm Dave, you'll see what i mean about the printer when you get the thing i printed this morning, fuser units and toner replaced and it still looks like someone threw up on it :glare:

The only thing that is holding me back from this event is the need to have a fire extinguisher. Installation + Cost of the fire extinguisher would probably end up being $100.00 (allowing 30 for the item, and 70 for installation).

:rofl2:

That is all...

:laugh:

installation = 0

seriously, get the $30 extinguisher with the metal bracket, and mount it on the bolt I posted the pic of above. Undo bolt, put bolt through bracket, screw down. Clip extinguisher in, done.

This weekend I'll take photos of mine (putting reminder in phone)

Payment "could" take up too 3 days to clear, did you email or fax the forms?

Dave may have received the email but could be waiting on payment to clear before he updates the entrants list.

    • After using a protractor for an actually accurate assessment of what is required,  and by NOT using my uncalibrated eyeball I worked out I need a 25° silicone bend from the TB ro the MAF, but, my choice was either a 30° or a 23° (23° is a weird spec), so I grabbed the 23° one from Raceworks I also grabbed 1mtr of 3" straight from Just Jap, I needed 350mm, but they only had 300mm, or 1mtr lengths....meh Also ordered a 1/2" hose bulkhead fitting from fleabay, this has a smoothish mushroom looking head (they are designed for below the water line of boats) that will fit inside the bend, the hose bit and threaded bit looks to long, but nothing that a hacksaw cannot fix if required, the hose will then just get jamed on the threaded bit up to the retaining nut Fingers crossed and the unsightly amount of hose clamps will be reduced down to 4 once all the parts arrive 
    • Oil change does not trigger code 21. Code 21 is for coilpacks primary side connection. You can try to clear the code with a battery disconnect, hold down the brake pedal to drain capacitors through the brake lights with the ignition on for 10-15 seconds before you reconnect the battery. I have seen R35 coil conversion permanently cause this code with no ill effects so it might be the resistance it wants to see isn't quite right on one or more coilpacks. Could be inside the ECU, could be the harness, could be a coil. You can test it all if you want or just ignore until the car actually starts misfiring.
    • I forgot you have a Nistune ECU. Use Nistune to do all the tests I mentioned instead of faffing with 30+ year old electrical connectors. You can read MAF volts off that too, there are reference values in the service manual to tell you roughly what it should be in different conditions.
    • No. I think it might be the AFM. Hence the use of the terms "swaptronics", which implies the use of swapping out electronics for the purpose of diagnosis. It's about the only way to prove that a small/niggling/whatever problem with an AFM or a CAS or similar is actually caused by that AFM/CAS/whatever. A known good item swapped in that still gives the same problem is likely to be caused somewhere else. They're all the same. Spraying AFMs with cleaner is an each way bet between cleaning it and f**king it.
    • Oh wow! This might actually work amazingly. Do you know the ratio of the diff? I was told the only thing you need to make sure of is if the front & rear diff ratios are the same. Ours is a 4.083 Thanks!
