Started filling all the 10mm hole that were drilled from when the dealer had it rust treated back when it was new.

They weren't scared to drill random holes everywhere to spray the rust treatment in.

It's nice when you find bog inside the car and a random hole. This quarter panel on the passengers side did have 16mm of bog in it

so I guess they started levering the quarter out from the inside.

Some of the other old repairs, looks like they cut patches out from inside the car to hammer the sill panel out.

Got sick of using a cheap brake line flaring tool so lashed out and brought a sykes pickavant flaring tool but my super dodgy tube

straightener make from roller door wheels still works ok.

Started wiring the body harness, had to sort through and cut up some spare wiring looms to make one good one up.

Looking at buying the Link G4+ thunder ECU, seems to have everything I will need and more. http://www.linkecu.com/G4PlusThunder

    • forgot to mention that when it does this it does not kill the engine, but I have not kept the pedal down long enough to let it, as I see no reason to beat up on it as its got to be something simple, small and dumb causing this.  And as soon as I let off pedal, the engine returns to its normal super smooth operation and rpms re-stabilize quickly, once below 4k. 
    • neither stumble or cut really seem to be an appropriate term....hard to explain its like a rev limiter but at 4k, but it violently shakes engine and entire vehicle as the rpms will not rise over 4k, even with slow acceleration. as soon as it hits 4k, it sounds like entire spark is lost entirely. plugs were 1.1 which I used as such, but later put in new plugs gapped down to .8 changed back after issue arose when I replaced the coils, still does it with either plug gap...damn and it was all running so good.
    • Oh how times have changed! I actually lean it out relative to my water/methanol injector duty cycle. The methanol adds a lot of fueling and you can then lean it out even more due to reduced knock. 
    • Yeah my thoughts are the same, a well thought out WMI setup, would be slightly ahead of just straight E85 and you're also chemically intercooling the charged air, dropping it even further. This is why you need to add so much more fuel as soon as you spray. I remember someone taking me through their set up before (Dennis, has a R33, lives around Cabramatta - no idea if he's still around on this forum). He would target AFR 10:1 on 98, then as WMI ramped on, AFR would lean back up to 11:1. Amazingly, he did this all through his PowerFC, a relay to cut power to his EBC solenoid if there was not enough line pressure on his WMI kit. And of course, if there wasn't any boost made above gate pressure, you wouldn't be accessing the load cells with heaps of timing for WMI. One downside to that rudimentary setup, once the WMI came on, the EBC would unleash the dragon, and of course all the timing. Tyres would fry lol.
