Tail light bulb was out so changed em all. Went for a drive out the usual. Point hut crossing, tidbinbilla, cotter, uriarra area. Been too long since I've done that. Always a blast! :woot:

Front bar got hammered by the driveway at Maacas Charnwood.

2 cracks, loose mesh, and a dent in the oil filter.

Faaaark, i should stop driving it around town, im just wrecking it.

Its heaps happier living in my shed getting fixed and modified.

Hmmm.... a mini bull bar and bash plate just at the bottom of the front bar.... maybe that would work.

Then i can gouge out their driveway and watch the sparks fly.

Yeah thats the way to go, time for some welding.

That's a bad one mate. See all the grooves in it.

Can hit on the way in and out.

I take it slow and sideways. Even Standard cars bottom out.

soldered in the new RCA head thingo and due to wash it, had a mud storm this week and it hasn't seen water since.. im going to give it a really good wash before going out to robs place... don't want anyone to see my car this dirty!!

what do you mean getting there.... im, trying to hide my erection ;)

Still not tidy enough and im removing some of the items in there. POD filters are going. New Fuel pressure reg (one that will suit E85) and new hoses.+much more.

the engine was apart and it cost like $400 to paint it. May as well lol

Car is getting hotter than normal (above half way) I presume that's not normal. Trying to bleed the cooling system of any air, still no good. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Blocked Radiator.

Suggest Natrad ^ Could be many things

- When was the last time it was flushed and new coolant

- Thermostat

- Water pump

- Loose belt

- head gasket

- air in the system

- bad tune

- warmer weather

- hard driving/long drive

- leak

Hows the oil temp ?

-

Skyline gauges are generally an indication Ie. 0 50% 100%

So yeah I'd try a full flush and replace coolant. If it is still an issue get it looked at

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
