Have a chat, post your videos and Pics here!

I've got almost 100 gigs of video to sort through so give me some time folks. I'll try to get a couple of short "teasers" up quickly though.

Huge thanks to the Boys at Unigroup for hosting such a great day for us. As you saw they didn't get a break all day and worked through the heat.

Also thanks to the execs that helped out. Mechanic Sean was on the spot helping people with their shaft and Terry's ice cream fozza van went a treat in the hot afternoon.

as you can see i have a "thing" for Sean's car :P

Very professional jobs done by Yavuz, Mark, Sean & Duncan :yes:

Congrats to all who take care of their cars and didn't have to cause Yavuz 'worry' about possible breakages.

I wanted to try out my Engel fridge to see how long it would take to drain my battery > it nearly did; but not quite...

- but I knew I was in safe hands, so long I wasn't the last one to start up his vehicle to leave Unigroup lol

    • Misfires when the car is fully warm are generally attributed to the coils (and/or the igniter, on cars with a separate igniter). They can stop working properly when they get hot for a number of reasons. Either electric/electronic, or from thermal expansion opening up gaps and allowing HV leakage. Seeing as you have replaced the coils, that could/should rule them out. But I wouldn't always assume so. Were the coils genuine? Or is there a chance you have bought some counterfeit Chinesium shit? Then we're back onto loom connections. They can fail when warm/hot for the same reasons. Inspections, cleaning of contact surfaces, ensuring that terminals are fully inserted, etc etc, are all justified. The same (heat effects) holds true for the other electrics and their connectors. AFM & CAS, primarily. If you try that Chinesium AFM, drive it around on low load until it is properly hot, but do'nt give it more load than you have to, except when you need to see if it will still miss. I'm dead serious about the untrustworthiness of the calibration of those copy AFMs. Injectors are unlikely to get hot unless the fuel is coming back around hot. You could try squirting them with compressed air or freeze spray to cool them back down to see if they are maybe the cause.
    • Alright, all the plugs looks good. Noticed that it starts to get bad when the car is up to temp, that's when things starts to misfire hard. next to do is Injector cleaning and such. Got in touch with a shop to do work on the injectors next Monday also help on diagnosis.
    • House of Fatz dry dock needs a clean sadly one of the long time stables is leaving this weekend   see ya mr purple
    • Hence why I've only modified my car into a pure daily. Everything has to remain reliable & roadworthy, while providing value and grin factor. It also must not be handcrafted to the extent that the car will be immovable if something breaks because you cannot get or make a replacement to at least limp around with.
    • Nah, I definitely do that kind of stuff with my car. I do drive it around as a daily! It's just that mindset about building a car to actually still use/retain it's function as a car is rare. If you modify your car into a weekender, IMO you've ruined 5/7ths of the fun. It should remain fun to do daily errands in.
