Pull the fuel pump fuse and crank it

Should fire in the residual fuel in the cylinders

Sounds like the injectors are stuck open for some reason

Yeah this.... Give that a go.... Shouldn't be able to hydraulic lock one of these engines.... When the lines were backwards you would have had a heap of fuel pressure so maybe, but not now.....

I know fuel systems lol

Just don't let me touch it or it'll never go again!

Martin, too much rain?

Martin, too much rain?

when running slicks any amount of rain is to much rain

still first event run and suprised how much grip was available even though the track was wet to very wet all day

stopped raining just long enough to dry out a little bit and managed to set a decent time on the last run of the day

was first in class all day and managed a fourth outright in a field of 45 cars so not a bad effort

just cant beat 4WD in the wet

Good afternoon everyone

I need some tech help that I'm hoping someone can help me with

I have some vids from yesterday and need them edited to be able to upload them to Facebook or hosted on YouTube so wondering if anyone can help with this please

Thanks

im in birmingham gardens. it was suffering from hydralic lock which has been cured by accidently spraying a mate with petrol (he is okay now). the new problem is it is cranking but not igniting. so im thinking when the bosch spark plugs got submerged in water they died. we've called it quits for today. it also has a semi flat battery. its at 11v with the ignition off and drops to 3v during cranking so weve been using the forester to jump it. so at this stage im thinking ill invest in a set of ngk plugs, some new oil and then i need to get some fuel to my place from the servo as im running too low to make it to a servo when she does come back to life. also has anyone had any issue with bosch plugs?

See if u can borrow a set of coil packs from someone to, could be them, the stock packs are shit house.

Feel free to whore away :-)

I've been busy with work :domokun:

Just a quick question for you all

Who would be keen for a come and try day at the local hillclimb track on the 16th Feb?

Cost is $25 from memory but not sure on car requirements yet as far as extinguisher etc goes.

That sounds pretty cool....

Can you hit pretty fast speeds on that hillclimb track or is it fairly slow and twisty

What do you call fast?

You can go as fast as you like just remember you have to keep on the track though or shit gets real in a hurry

    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
