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

Awesome, I shall hit them up at some stage!

Got my enonomy down to 10.5L / 100km Hwy. (before Tune)

I just bought an NTK O2 for the Wagz (off R31Club) for $80 Posted. :D

Installed brass shifter bush, and detent springs, good thing i had a look under there, one gearbox cross member bolt was coming out, and the others were finger tight.

:blush:

Wont forget again. Will use blue thread lock this time too.

Damn right! Import Rego = Triumph.

Heating is Bonus.

The Wagz is Parked til I get my O2 sensor so the 4door did the work commute today.

Such a different Animal. :woot:

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?

    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.  
    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go       
    • I don't get in here much anymore but I can help you with this.   The hole is a vent (air relief) for the brake proportioning valve, which is built into the master cylinder.    The bad news is that if brake fluid is leaking from that hole then it's getting past the proportioning valve seals.   The really bad news is that no spare parts are available for the proportioning valve either from Nissan or after market.     It's a bit of a PITA getting the proportioning valve out of the master cylinder body anyway but, fortunately, leaks from that area are rare in my experience. BTW, if those are copper (as such) brake lines you should get rid of them.    Bundy (steel) tube is a far better choice (and legal  in Australia - if that's where you are).
