Yh the top half is good but the bottom half is kaput, has a cracked piece.

Hmmm... Wouldn't mind the top piece and maybe the throttle body too, I wanna get a larger throttle body (KA24) and bore out the inlet where it bolts on for more airflow.

Praps I can get it from you soon. (When I reclaim my O2 socket) ;)

Anyone know where I can get an aluminium 3/8" NPT bung and a plug for it?

Going speed density soon on the evo and wanna get one welded into the cooler piping for the IAT sensor.

Also need a plug to block up one of the post cat o2 sensors I'm not using in the new exhaust.

Any suggestions on where to pick up either of these items would be greatly appreciated!

f**ked around with my idle speed, cranked it down so the timing belt doesn't f**k me off, sould have it booked into Trojan next week :)

and I got the GTR bov on, haven't been out to see how it sounds yet :( that was hard! the guy before me had a bigger bov on so he clamped the bigger hose down heaps, so it was all deformed, after a lot of heating and swearing I finally got it on :D

me : 1 - bov : 0

<br /><br />Pirtek in Fushwick or Industrial Supplies in Fushwick opposite shell. To get it welded I would do it for you just have to find time to sneak into my uni workshops otherwise if your in a rush Natrad (Phillip) can tig weld.

Engine bay is actually FILTHY!!! It had spider webs near the oil filter.

Needs a good clean but so does the whole car...Meh. I'll get there. :P

Made some enquiries regarding Exhaust, Wheel alignment and Rego Inspection today...

Still a work in progress.

    • Given you're running a 2.8 and my 2.5 is not really like for like, I suspect there could be a bit more timing you could give it. What is the kW yield per degree you're putting through it? Here's my E85 map to give you an idea, where it was I could still get another 3~4kW per degree thrown at it.  
    • It turns out that Setrab make a fan specifically for the oil cooler which is great and I've installed it with minimal swearing. I removed my 2x 12in push fans from the front of my aircon condenser and wired them into this. My main thermo fans kick on when I use the aircon anyway and would effectively already be working as puller fans through the condensor which is infront of the rad. The push fans (understandably) didn't really do much in the config they were previously in so now they're out. Now we're on to the "Oil fan doesn't really do much either!". Yes I'll duct it next if it does nothing in heavy use which it shouldn't. But hey, the object exists and fits great and is cool. Let me have this. The car is still in the "do my fittings leak oil now? do my wheels actually rub?" phase. I did a spirited drive on them and didn't hear or feel anything. Then I got back home and noticed there were grind marks on the inside of the rims, though I couldn't see where they were touching I got out the grinder and attacked the suspects. Note: I do not know how to use a grinder. Then I realised I had dragged my new rims across my concrete driveway before I did this drive. I didn't think I had damage at that time when I briefly looked...... but remembered this occurred after I did all the angle grinding. The grinding on the wheels in some very specific spots. It's not around the whole rim for example, which lines up with dragging it across concrete more than hitting a suspension component for even 1 full rotation. So everything is currently painted and taped up and I need to test it some more to see if it really IS rubbing, but from inside the car it doesn't feel like it is. In other news I attempted to do a before and after comparison of the heads/cam upgrade thing. Dynos lie, everything is in different measurements. Here is the data from the sandown back straight. Car go faster than before. Vroom vroom.
    • Here's my base ignition. +3 correction to redline when shooting water/meth which is always on. Looking at my old ignition table, I should be able to add 1-2 degree's next time I'm on the dyno.  Let me know your thoughts. 
    • Given what I know now - same haha, but this was 12 years ago with second hand 740cc Nismo injectors in my S15 daily, I was too busy hunting elsewhere for the issue to even look at the injectors, running through some cleaner was a happy coincidence haha
    • Not a terrible idea. But if I ever had concerns that my injectors were sufficiently dirty to be causing me a problem, they would be out of the engine and onto the actual injector cleaner/testing bench.
