This Arvo / Evening / Night I put new Balljoints in a spare pair of R31 Control arms I got (there was Nipple Greasing involved) :O,

pulled my Nolathane LCA bushes out of my old LCAs and put them in too.

Put the 27mm Front Swaybar back in with the FREE Nolathane D Bushes I got some months ago. (when I was sent the wrong ones).

Tightened a wheel bearing and Found and fixed a coolant leak. (I created) :rolleyes:

Was going to put in new Tierod ends but I couldn't get the old ones out. (I need me a Pickle Fork) but I think they are still ok anyway...maybe.

Steering still wanders a little but feels much tighter and direct plus less body roll. :thumbsup:

That 34 looks nice at the coast.

Finally assembled everything, and i can detail it now, also i can move the bastard out of the shed.

And i dont have sht all over the place, its all on the car, i can use the shed again for other things.

Yep, I don't mind a bit of nipple greasing, dependent on gender of course ... :wacko:

Thanks Mik, that was at Port Macquarie ..

so when is the big reveal Michael ?

Probably next weekend or during the week sometime.

Some polish touch ups, waxing, rubbers are getting better, a bit more on them, and a sunny day to get nice photos.

I just washed it again, pre final polish. Its weird washing a car thats not visibly dirty. But it has to have all traces of coarser polish gone.

Had a quick drive around the block a few times to warm it up. Its been a while.

Edited by D.I.Y. Mik

Madness! Yes, we need sunny day for pics. :D

I fixed the Wagz's windows washers with a better motor. Now instead of barely dribbling on the bonnet, it nearly hits you in the eye. :laugh:

Also bought a new bearing for the old Dizzy, put it in and cleaned it all up for futures...

Yep drove it from Autotech to home supercharged. Blower was stuffed so I cut my losses and started making turbo manifolds. A year later and it's almost ready to drive again lol

Edit: same forged motor, just with T04Z instead of the blower.

    • Thanks Duncan, that's the best info I've read. Furthermore after learning about the PCM programming side controlling the factory boost solenoid, the purpose of the solenoid is to "bleed" boost when pin 25 is earthed, thus allowing spring pressure in the wastegate actuator to overcome diaphragm boost pressure, thus closing or reducing the position of the wastegate flap creating more boost as the turbo is able to spin faster. It's pretty cool to see a designated Pill to do exactly this, would have liked to have seen it with a tiny filter over the end for those moments in vacuum.  The constant bleed pill has now been removed completely from the system and solenoid boost control has been restored once again.   Case closed 😂
    • The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.
    • Manual boost controllers (where a little of the boost was bled off) were quite common back in the day, because they were cheap and easy. Generally they had a manual adjustment screw rather than being fixed like yours. Down side is they always bleed boost, not just when you want them to so an electronic boost controller that uses a solenoid will have less lag.
    • Hello , im new here and i have A31 home build  RB25det neo stock eng / turbo  aem ems 2 blue connector  aem 3.5 map aem cas disk aem wideband connected to ecu  355 lph pump 550 nismo yellow injectors side feed aftermarket regulator  and won’t start with base aem tuner basic tune eventually flipped cas 180 degree so it triggers on correct stroke not in exhaust cycle  Now it won’t start Wideband reads 10 and 11 at lowest fuel setting  and will share calibrations soon for aem tuner i think something is wrong in aem tuner    please if you have any information, am very grateful         
    • Legend. I ended up finding the facebook account of the owner of the first car i sent but sadly he deactivated the account. I think you’re right in saying it’s some sort of well done custom job. Really appreciate your help anyways.
