Mugabetown - Whoretownin' At It's Worst.

Stupid zeds. Was meant to pull my engine out yesterday but got distracted doing a plenum pull on a mates zed. Easy enough, but then he wanted to check timing belt was on correctly (which it was) while waiting for mobile injector guy to test/clean injectors.

Put everything back together and it had a massive boost leak. One of the rail insulators was minced and spewing fuel and air. So had to pull plenum and fix and re-install.

Finished about 9pm last night (started about 10am).

3 plenum pulls in 2 days FML.

    • No requirement for JDM vehicles,  which the 33 is, maroney label only needed in the US market for new cars I believe (Federal law stuff) Google knows all
    • Hopefully you can just unbolt them, thank them for their service, then bin them and not replace them Apparently the sensors like to set them off with only minor impacts at low speed It looks like they do a delete kit for some of these, but, it is costly 
    • I hope it's actually possible. This is a write off in insurance world.
    • Yup. 2-way with shallow ramp angles. Still works.
    • That was the first session so not a lot to take from the day. It was low 20s ambient and the coolant had got to 110 (and obviously had some pressure!) so that still needs to be addressed. I haven't downloaded the data yet but will. I had refilled the auto trans with Redline DT6 because it claimed the best viscosity I could find at 100o. It wasn't really long enough to get a good feel for that; while the trans got to 100o in the session it still wasn't shifting crisply as I hoped. I think I'll try a few more sessions before judging. No steering motor overheat but I'd hope not in only 1 session! But finally the suspension; it was night and day over the standard stuff and the car was a couple of seconds quicker on the same crappy tyres, which is a huge difference. I'll stick with that and get some sway bars and a mechanical diff sorted too and see how that all goes together
