This is a good thing for your car is not a lawnmower.

When are you getting that Timing belt tension sorted? Hopefully before something breaks.

oh and also the O2 sensor for economy.

reset the ecu, and cleaned the afm, so far it seems like it fixed it :)

honestly - maybe next week, this week is going to be hela busy. I have cut down on driving the 33.. done 3k kms since I have had it...

its not to bad anymore rarely does it on idle, but im still getting it checked

Front End Knock is GONE!!! f**kin' Yay!!! :bunny:

Shock Inserts had Slight movement up and down inside the struts.

A 20c piece dropped in the bottom took up the slack.

SkyWagon is now worth at least 40c. :)

Tried to find what plugs I can use for my car today (yes I have searched the forum before anyone tells me to) I'm still really confused. I have found the NGK BCPR6EIX (platinum I think) or the NGK PRF6A (Iridium) seem to be the most popular choices so if anyone has had any experience some advice would be great. I don't want to use copper ones because I can't be arsed changing then every ~5000kms.

to all fellow skyliners ..... a new legislation has gone inplace ( not sure if its only act) but a cop was beside me for about 5 mins talking and admiring my car.. then at the lights he said be carful man from now on in the police can take your car if your doing something wrong...

didn't tell me if its only performance cars or not but yea, he said its an awesome car I have, sounds good, makes turbo noises, (compressor surge ) and attracted police ... he baciclly said drive like a grandma when a cop is around, so that's what I did....

I tried iridium and platinum plugs in the KTM and found maybe 10% longer life from those.

At 5 times the cost, its not worth it.

BUT thats a two stroke, and would be different in a car. I still think its a good example of how much better they are.

Which reminds me.. If you like to hoon, get a dirtbike with rego.

You can flog it all day legally sideways in the Brindies.

    • 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.
    • Bloody apprentices! 🙄
    • Not sure yet.  Was considering speedtek because it was rated to 800hp, but when I did some research about him I don't think I will go for that🤣 So maybe giken gear set, but I'm afraid it won't be strong enough🙄
