Mugabetown - Whoretownin' At It's Worst.


Recommended Posts

Not sure first time its ever done it. Then later it fluttered between 3000-3500 with no actual rev loss to motor. :/ Strange. Didn't play up at happy laps.

dry joints in the tacho can do it.

if you are decent at soldering, redo all the solder joints in the tacho.

Cleaning the injectors could just add to the problem.. The ECU is doing it because another sensor is out.. have you reset the ECU, clean AFM and make sure you don't have a air leak or atmosphere bov..

Could be fuel reg?

ECU has been reset, AFM cleaned just before that, stock return BOV. Can't hear any air leaks. Ran a error check on the ecu it came up thst everything was fine.

Afternoon whores...the SS went to the repairers today...lets see how long they take to give me an incorrectly repaired car back. 

5 weeks. Will sit at quoters for 2 weeks for the assessor to look at.

love the positive approach their Mikie.

Hopefully, it will be fixed soon. Just keep communicating with them.

I'm yet to find someone who has had a car repaired by them and be happy with it and not be f**ked around, my hopes that it would be different for me were dashed when they initially sent me to a place that doesn't do imports...

^this. If you don't ring them they will not contact you. The only time I got any updates on my repairs was when I rang just car and got the repairers number.

Greg, I called that dude today about white rb30 - he sounded fully sic and tells me it's not modded, but genuine Tomei rb30 cam, valves, springs and retainers. He said High Octane got custom Tomei stuff for builder.

So what really happened is they bought a wade cam and a set of letter punches, stamped Tomei on the cam and charged him 4 times the price they bought the wade cam for, because he is a silly kebab.

Haha thanks. Just waiting on today to see if the skyline is ready. I owe zac so much for working on it

You still owe him for that maltesers incident, stop being slack.

Luckily I worked 500m from the assessors, they got to see me everyday as my patience wore thin

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
