Going around gresford, dungog and further north

Just saw this now so probably to late to get a lift in Big Bird

Well back from the mechanics, and the verdict is as he thought, turbo leaking oil into the intake, messing up the AFM, causing it to missfire dump fuel and foul the plugs, fix is replace turbos.

And also with the stock GTR air box and the side pipe, it is used for induction but its blocked off standard, it has 2 pressue clips and the restrictor pops out to give u massive air flow, i can hear my car sucking in more air and its fluttering also now that i have taken it out pics are attached.

Its something like that or put a set of good stock ones back in it and probably sell it get as much back as i can on it and move on.

T4NK, I have a contact in Japan that you can use to get your parts....

You can get stuff a lottttt cheaper than from JustJap....

For example: I got my Tomei N2 Oversize Oil Pan for $350 incl.postage and JustJap sells them for $800ish.

All the stuff Ive bought has worked out cheaper than Nengun + RHDJapan as well

That's a lot of coin for turbos

Have you looked at getting yours redone?

Might be cheaper with the same result but as the saying goes costs nothing to ask.

Don't sell the car man unless it's to Jarred when he has the coin :)

For once Benji might be onto something here.

First very usefull post I've seen ever from you

Price on some 550cc or higher injectors for a 25NEO please

Oh and have you finished the drive yet Ant?

Hope the car is still in one piece

Was up around Gresford way last week and sections of the road are utter crap.

Apart from the bit between Gresford and Vacy that has a few rises and dips in the road. The truck gets very light in the front end at 100 through that section.

If you went just a bit faster in a car I reckon you could get air easy enough

Found these, talking to the guy atm about shaft play ect, getting some pics and a video of the shafts sent to me since they are in melb, if they are good ill take them i think, 10,000km or less on them

If you can get a price for me posted that would be great to. thanks :yes:

haha martin 34s are way to over priced for me but thanks for looking out for me bruv

the run was pretty shit but we got good pics of the bird and saw some great scenery, wooten way is our cruise after the next one.

what would you buy tank?? never know it could be great after the turbo and be worth keeping

not sure m8, was considering a TRD chaser or even just a GTT 34 something thats not as expensive to fix when i brake it, cauz i know im going to brake it lmfao

Yea sorry Martin were abit late, we were on the road by 1030...

Roads were very rough, therefore very slow! There was one good section from dungog over to buckets way, but apart from that, wooten was great! Smooth and very wide, and 100kph speed limit and no other cars on the road.

Will hit it up for the next run.

    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
