Getting there.....

Still need to adjust (cut off and re-weld) a couple of brackets to make it all fit.

Mainly the oil filter is too far forward and hoses interfere with intercooler pipe, doh, measure twice.

I like the idea of bash proofing the car, it adds weight, but im never going to win any races either way.

Oh, and if you spot something suspicious (youd need sharp eyes) its not real, its a toy.

Saw a Thread recently about removing the Plastic Cover under the wipers, so I gave it a go. >>> Thread is Here <<<

Thanks to a pic in there, it was not as hard as it seemed. Been wanting to do this for ages.

Heaps of Dustiness under there but it's clean now. :D

All set up. :happy:

A lot of mucking about getting the right angles for harness mounts, and getting the seat set up properly.

I wish the other bracket worked and my helmet didnt hit the roof, as it was much easier to bolt in and out.

If i cant sell those brackets i may modify one to be lower.

Looks awesome. What's the deal with street use? as in, can you use the Harness or does it have to be normal seatbelt?

For comfort, is the harness easily tucked aside? etc...

Tried it out with a little drive today.

Oh my god, thats the most impractical set up for daily driving.

Cant turn your head around, cant reach the door if it opens, cant have anything in your pockets, cant breathe if its too tight etc.

Good for trackday though.

Normal seat going back in today.

    • Is the panel filter one that is oiled? Have you ever cleaned or touched the AFM?
    • So.... the K&N air box thingo was too big, ended up gifting it to a mate, well, by gifting it he actually supplied food and beer at the pub,  which was nice, as it will not sit on a shelf in the garage for the next 10 years I did trim up some of the existing stuff to neaten it all up and gave it some wrinkle paint, unfortunately it currently has a used and abused mish mash of different types of hose clamps, 4 big fat T bolt type (shit), and a few normal clamps of vairing sizes and brands, but..... only until the 6 constant tension black worm clamps that I ordered from EFI solutions turn up next week Currently the current hose clamps are triggering me hard, LOL Is this the final version, probably not, I really want just 2 silicone pieces, a straight bit of silicone from the filter to the MAF is easy and will happen as soon as I head into Just Jap tomorrow, the problematic part is a 30° silicone bend from the MAF to the TB that I can connect the engine breather from the head, I found that there are bulk head fittings for boat bilge pumps that should work, but until I can get a 30° silicone bend the alloy pipe, and the 11ty thousand hose clamps, are there for the foreseeable future 4 hose clamps are golden, 6 are grudgingly acceptable, the 8 currently holding it all together is just taking the piss    I've also ordered 60 more retaining wall blocks for the front yard, I mis-gonculated the height that was required to get above the base of the Photinia's (red robin's) that are the hedge behind the front fence, currently it is 2 blocks high, and about 1/2 a block short, so going 3 blocks high will be above the base of the red robin's, and allow some room for mulch
    • It is the stock air box with the panel filter. Everything else is stock except the exhaust at this point, as I also went back to the cleaned 270cc injectors. I will check the RPM when the IACV is unplugged and report back.
    • As MBS suggested if this is happening when the engine is cold you're going to want to remove the intake air regulator and verify resistance + that the shutter is physically opening and closing. At -20C should be fully open, 20C half open, over 60C fully closed. At 20C should be 70-80 ohms. For AAC valve testing using a Consult cable see if you can raise and lower the idle by commanding more or less AAC duty cycle. Hopefully it's pretty linear as well, shouldn't be like 30% AAC valve is barely idling and 40% is 1500 rpm.
