Do the Hustle!!!

Turns out my oil temp works just fine as I did hook it to the sensor but the car didn't get warm enough to register.

1000 @ 100km / hr on the highway. Now to get my water sensor adapter on... :)

Its sad that you know what the Hustle is mate.....Oh wait....So do I.

Drove her to work. New rubber is fantastic.

On a less positive side: One of my wheels has chipped the paint off it, anyone know roughly what price/where i can get slight gutter rash fixed, and fresh paint on all four?

Finally got around to fitting a factory ac thermo fan. took a while to get the intercooler to line up right and its mounted a little lower and its tight but its better than no thermo fan :P

It has a bit of a miss after sitting for almost three months. Hoping its just plugs or something simple.

There used to be a whole thread on this subject .... Not so long ago. ... With some good tips.

Wicked Wheels, Rallimax, Craved Coatings etc...

Finally purchase a new front bumper. Any places that do good installation jobs? No idea if the previous owners screwed with the front of my car or not to put my current bumper on.

bought $150 worth of meguairs products, as i finished all of mine of prepping a car for a wedding on the weekend. The car (2005 C320 Merc) cleaned up better than i would have thought, was told that it looked like it had just rolled out from factory!

So overall very happy. Unfortunately won't get a chance to detail this weekend as im booked out the whole time.

GTR needs some love atm....

Also got some new vacuum lines and a few other bits and peices to tidy the engine bay up.

Oh and the stickers arrived for my wheels last night. Will test fit tonight.

Bryce just finished installing stockie suspension in Rosie - I feel like I'm driving on clouds haha. Absolute Legend. May have to fit Stockie wheels as the front is a bit low.

Cheers Bryce, ya legend.

    • 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!
