so gonna give you superglue now u mentioned that

Last time o had superglue I glued myself to the dash of my car haha!

More information? Task?

Making flower arrangements with artificial flowers... Lol

If you have the room and don't set a deadline, it's a lot less painless.

How did Supra get written off?

It's been four years now... I miss having a running skyline :(

Plus I don't really have the room, and it's a PITA each time I need to move :(

Planning to have the room issue sorted in around 18 - 24 months though, which should be SAWEET!

Supra was written off because I stuffed up taking a corner. Spun it into a cliff. Really bad corner, that really shifts the weight of the car mid corner, and it had moss and water on it too, rear end came around, shifted weight mid corner and back the opposite way.

Drove it out from where I was and back down to an area a towie could get in, and shut it down before it over heated and damaged anything.

Bought it home and wrecked it. Actually made money on it. LOL. But god I miss that car, it was just so... Raw! LOL

Room solves the issues, when you get sick of it cover it up and leave it for a while.

Sounds like that ridiculous corner in the Royal National Park lol. I had a very tense moment on that corner.

I have been thinking about picking up a Supra - the power from standard internals appeals :)

yet the mighty stock rb26 can also hold its ground reasonably well ;)

Nah... Much worse corner than in RNP... LOL Goes from a down hill run off camber, to just a bit after the apex it shifts up hill, on camber. Hence, lack of traction incoming, rear end came around, and it massively shifted the weight right as I put some opposite lock on... Lot of oppy lock as huge grip comes back = f**king messy LOL

Until it oil surges... LOL

The supra I had was a 3rd Gen Supra a GA70 specifically, so a 2.0L I6 TT. It was NOT quick, not at all, LOL but I love it, it had character. Disconnect the waste gate vac lines and just let the turbos self regulate at around 25 PSi... Toyota had enough fuel from factory that it wouldn't knock :P

I took a JZA80 out to a motorkhana, exceptionally fun car to drive, but forget about EVER getting traction off the line. They just want to wheel spin. A very nice cruiser, although more something I'd build if I was young and stupid again and wanted a highway runner. This is where even a GTS-t kills a JZA80, ability to grip and go!

Haha you know how some animals do stupid shit because they go oooh what's this what will happen....

That's me... This no glue, axes or knives... I had to get my hand glued last year cutting an orange with a knife :-/

corkscrew corner. Embankment on opposite side of road, or same side?

I don't think they sell it by the drum lol and it's kind of greasy, which rules out sunscreen substitute lol

It's a left hand turn on a road country road near Wollongong.

Cliff is on opposite side of the road. So I came in, turned left, car stepped the rear end to the outside of thecorner, grabbed a whole heap of grip in the front and flung it back around the opposite way and across the road and into the cliff.

There was a lot of factors involved in why it happened, but the main one, that contributed 99% to it, was the driver farked up.

Haha go to buy some hmmm... Do you have any more of this out back I need to fill a bath with it...

Sales person... Ahhhh WTF...

Surprisingly there is another brand of that stuff that does get sold by the 44gallon drum.

Known in industry as just "Barrier Cream"

The electricians at my old job introduced me to it, I also worked with a bunch of fitters. The fitters called the electricians poofs for using "hand cream"...

Yeah, one of the fitters finally tried it... Now the fitters are also being a bunch of poofs and using hand cream... LOL Stuff is magic for protecting your hands from grease and grime. Should get my step dad to get me some for while I'm working on cars... Although, I've also been abused into wearing gloves so I dont cut myself as much... LOL

    • I guess one thing that might be wrong is the manifold pressure.  It is a constant -5.9 and never moves even under 100% throttle and load.  I would expect it to atleast go to 0 correct?  It's doing this with the OEM MAP as well as the ECU vacuum sensor. When trying to tune the base map under load the crosshairs only climb vertically with RPM, but always in the -5.9 column.
    • AHHHH gotchaa, I'll do that once I am home again. I tried doing the harness with the multimeter but it seems the car needed a jump, there was no power when it was in the "ON" position. Not sure if I should use car battery jump starter or if its because the stuff that has been disconnect the car just does send power.
    • As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.  
    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack. 
    • Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
