The Wagz did some funky low RPM surging thing when coldish this morning. Made me think O2 sensor.

Pulled it out this arvo and gave it a shake. It rattles alot.

Need a new one.

I also need a new one. Jez found out mine was dead so he has told the ecu to go off of his inputs rather than the sensor and I can just adjust the PFC when I've replaced the sensor.

Won't actually find out if fuel economy is better until the end of this tank because I forgot to reset the odo last tank haha... Jez said it should be better off boost though

Installed a venom 100c 4" cat. Was hoping that might eliminate some of the loudness haha but it hasn't... So I might need to talk to a workshop about getting another muffler thrown into the mix

3 weeks since i sprayed the final coats.

Im just having a look to see if i can start rubbing it with 12-1500

Hmmm.... maybe. A bit of haze and swirl marks, but it was a quick sand and buff:

Maybe ill just start the wet sanding and buff at the end of the week.

The colour is just the way i want it, a bit more gold than the real GMH colour, i got to compare it today to a new ute.

cold start running as bit rough, so cleaned aac valve and adjust tb voltage to 0.45v (was 0.29v previously).

Good stuff! I was having hunting issues as well after my tune. Adjusted it from .34v to .45v at idle last week and that seems to be fixed.

My cold start is pretty bad.. keep it cranking for a split second after its started otherwise it gurgles and struggles for a couple seconds. Might need to look into getting it fixed soon otherwise I'll be struggling when winter actually arrives.

I just give mine a little feather on the gas. Old shtbox that it is i dont expect any better. :no:

Rubbing back the clear, more sanding, just finer, i must have sanded everything at least 30 times by now.

This is the last one, no more sanding after this. Thank rajabajaba. :worship:

Reminds me I need to do the AAC on the 33. Hunts when the A/C is on.

It used to struggle on first cold start of the day and yeah had to touch the throttle to fix.

Ever since I put a non return valve in the fuel line, it has NEVER done it again.

Clean aac valve as it is far easier, however if that fails the actual cold start valve under the plenum may need cleaning. It is painful to get too hence trying aac first. What's your idle rpm?

      It was a great, but typical track day, and some VB was ingested at the night time debrief 🤪

      And so, to round this out, I couldn't be happier to confirm @MBS206 has decided to buy the car. He drove down from sunny QLD with a trailer last week and it is off to its new home today. I'll let Matt confirm on next steps but I understand broadly that the plan is to leave it pretty much as is, and just get some quality wheel time with a nicely balanced car that is pretty much track ready. There are a few a jobs still to be done first but nothing too major and I think its a very smart buy Dinner last night at the Paragon with a round of VBs (mostly) for Neil

      Well, 50 pages and the end of a chapter for this car. We took it out for a shakedown at Wakie yesterday, and everything went well. There were a couple of niggles: - Oil cooler fitting leak - tightened, cleaned, stopped leaking - Radiator cap overflow fitting was leaking....Mark called it, the overflow fitting was threaded in and not tight....tightened, tested and held pressure - Small oil leak at the rear of the block, probably the turbo oil feed - too hot to get at it comfortably but probably just needs to be nipped up - leak at the driver's side rear brake line where it meets the hardline. Fitting wasn't loose, so Matt backed it off and back on, no further leaks - there's also a leak somewhere on the top of the fuel tank, maybe that cross over fuel line - that was has been left to fix when its on a hoist Otherwise than those niggles the car went great, turned great and stopped great so it was a very successful day out. I'm always really nervous when a car first hits the track after a long break, especially with a brand new engine as well but it was great. VID-20251011-WA0007.mp4  Big thanks to @The Bogan who dropped by and helped out, @MBS206 and my nephew Lachlan the apprentice.  Neil's wife Mel also surprised the hell out of all of us by dropping by; she's up in Tamworth these days but was travelling to Melbourne so had plausible deniability for turning up at the garage, it was great to see her but also obviously a bit sad all round.

      Unsolicited advice? Keep the engine as close to stock as you can. Nothing wrong with adding some boost and making a little more power, but given where you are, you really don't want to try to make it into a monster. I can't imagine the roads are up to it, and the lack of locla support when it grenades will be a ball ache. FWIW, If there is a dyno around that you can access, then brand new injectors are a good idea, which will lead you to (at least) putting a Nistune in it, which will allow you to put an R35 AFM on it, all of which will make it possible to make it much much nicer to drive and live with.
