http://uprev.com/UpdateFiles/software/Osiris%20User%20Guide.pdf page 9 explains the unmarrying.

To return an ECU to stock you simply need to use the latest version of Osiris and flash the ROM

named “XXXXX Back To Stock.OsirisROM” where XXXXX is your ECU part number.

After the flash has completed, Osiris will automatically transfer your license off of your ECU and

put it back on your cable so it will be ready to flash your ECU later, or be transferred to another

vehicle

the thing is, it makes easier for Sheldon to swap exhaust/spacer to a Brissie/GC buyer by organising a visit to a workshop....saves time in packaging....

Haha i was gonna try out bid you for the exhaust but felt a bit dirty seeing as you got in first :unsure:

Seems like money talks, so maybe you should chuck a price in!

Badluck Sean, that stings, i know you've been after one of these for a while.

Maybe you should start having a chat to some reputable exhaust shops? I am confident there are talented enough fabricators right here in Australia who could put together an excellent system for a competitive price. It might not have the brand name, but at least you can design it exactly how you want. I know I'd change a few things about the design of mine if I could!

GLW sale of your car Sheldon, i know it's inconvenient but the only time i've ever come close to breaking even on a car is when i've stripped the parts and returned to stock. I wish I knew more about the value of the work you'd put into yours when I was in the market - it would have been a great buy at the current price. Kinda worries me that the market is so soft......looks like i'll be in for the long haul with mine!

Yeah, thats the problem Mat. People who are buying V35's (or cars in general) don't completely understand what my car (or any car) contains when it has aftermarket mods. I only got the best parts for it and researched it like crazy. To them its just an aftermarket exhaust and they don't really put value onto it.

I think I might have found a buyer for my car now that its semi stripped, so here's hoping for the best.

If I didn't have mine, I would be after yours. Has alot of the work done that I wanted done. Problem with selling a modified car is that you immediately alienate potential buyers who think that a modified car is owned by a hoon who limiter bashes it everywhere. On top of that, there are those people (like me) who prefer building it themselves. So that kills your potential market straight away. But it is a beautiful specimen of a V.

If i was buying a lightly modified car i wouldn't be too worried, and just by speaking to the seller you can generally tell what sort of person they are then you could guestimate how well they treat their property and obviously by looking at it in the flesh.

Yeah Mat, i emailed Coz this morning just to get a rough idea what it'd cost me on a brand new setup same as what Sheldon has. I've asked him to look after me, since i've spent close to 5k with him in the last 6 months so we'll see how that goes. If i can't justify it, i'll go a bit cheaper and probably grab a ARK grip exhaust or Invidia i quite like the sound of both of them. If i didn't plan on selling my car in 12 months once i'm off these silly p plates i would put more money into it. But, it's pointless.

I love my V! Don't get me wrong. I'll buy another V one day and do the same thing to it. My SGV35 plates are currently sitting on my wall next to a 1m canvas print of my car, haha. Looking forward to breaking them out again and using them on my next V :)

      What should I do next to hold the head on

      By Dose Pipe Sutututu · Posted

      Possibly avoid using a Cometic one unless the deck/head surface are perfectly flat. I did have a look just then and forgiving gaskets such as Tomei or Nitto don't exist for the FJ20, however the Bar-Tek or Kameari ones look good and might do the trick.

      Because pipe threads for pipe things. M threads for bolt things. Throw some teflon sealant onto it and dust your hands off knowing you did the right thing, instead of going twice around the block to achieve a result using the wrong things. Of course, all of these solutions are ignoring the fact that the minimum thread pitch we're talking about here is 1.25mm, with the 1/4" in NPT or BPS being out around 1.4mm. You will need to know that the boss you're tapping has enough thickness for at least a few threads. That's one of the reasons that 1/8" is commonly used - because the pitch is <1mm. And why would you look to use 1/4" NPT in a BSP country anyway? Ugh.

      Just throwing around ideas, does it need to be in the compressor cover? Why not the hot side piping?

      1/8NPT drill size = 8.7mm. Since the hole got messed up by me, it’s probably around 9mm.    So 1/4” NPT would be next step. A drill size of around 11mm would be preferred there which is not way of my M12 (drill 10.5mm and tap M12 threads)
