Mugabetown - Whoretownin' At It's Worst.


Recommended Posts

Eh hang around here long enough and it won't matter about broken tags, we're an interesting bunch lol

Many new people? Remember I know most of the people. I have been around these forums for a year or two....

Well, more accurately you'd need to ask 2 questions there:

1. Do I want any experience building LS motors?

2. Do you really need to build an LS motor?

Sean at EFI had those things almost scraping 800hp at the tyres with reliability not being an issue whatsoever

Well... I have a dismantled ls1 motor in my shed and am chasing some decent numbers, but here's the catch *takes deep inhale* We need to do it naturally aspirated due to mod plate BS

Hidden NOS might/may/could possibly be an option for someone (rant proofed lol)

New people, well pretty much everyone man... The club kinda disintegrated within itself after some falling outs that occurred *not to be discussed in public* but yer lots of new guys, myself included I guess.

Only really OG people around now are bunta (andrew) and Ants (er ants lol)... Noel's never around anymore and Dave (rhino rebel) only occasionally pops up.

But us new folk are good value :wave:

Oh ok, Yeah I can build anything you want. Engines I'm not familiar with I just refuse to offer advise on part selection and tech shit really. I'm not going to tell you what cam is best or whatever but all engines are the same on the inside essentially. Some are better designed, however.

Where I'm working at the moment is a Jeep specialist so I've been doing quite a bit of different stuff lately. A few 4.7 Hemis, a couple of 1943-5 Willys Jeep engines and a 1945 Dodge Weapons Carrier. Your LS1 wouldn't be an issue

Don't you love auto correct lol Imagine ordering that and coke in a bar lol

I cannot imagine ordering that beverage on account of the fact it tastes like shit haha!!

Let's see if they filtered out any decent Whiskey?

Lagavulin

Laphroaig

Caol Ila

Talisker

They're a super complex intricate mind field maze of an engine definitely super technical and difficult lol

Working for a jeep dealership that's Different avenue man how'd that come about

Animal? Bacon is Bacon....it doesn't come from an animal, it comes from heaven

Homer: Are you saying you're never going to eat any animal again? What about bacon?

Lisa: No.

Homer: Ham?

Lisa: No.

Homer: Pork chops?

Lisa: Dad, those all come from the same animal.

Homer: Heh heh heh. Ooh, yeah, right, Lisa. A wonderful, magical animal.

    • After using a protractor for an actually accurate assessment of what is required,  and by NOT using my uncalibrated eyeball I worked out I need a 25° silicone bend from the TB ro the MAF, but, my choice was either a 30° or a 23° (23° is a weird spec), so I grabbed the 23° one from Raceworks I also grabbed 1mtr of 3" straight from Just Jap, I needed 350mm, but they only had 300mm, or 1mtr lengths....meh Also ordered a 1/2" hose bulkhead fitting from fleabay, this has a smoothish mushroom looking head (they are designed for below the water line of boats) that will fit inside the bend, the hose bit and threaded bit looks to long, but nothing that a hacksaw cannot fix if required, the hose will then just get jamed on the threaded bit up to the retaining nut Fingers crossed and the unsightly amount of hose clamps will be reduced down to 4 once all the parts arrive 
    • Oil change does not trigger code 21. Code 21 is for coilpacks primary side connection. You can try to clear the code with a battery disconnect, hold down the brake pedal to drain capacitors through the brake lights with the ignition on for 10-15 seconds before you reconnect the battery. I have seen R35 coil conversion permanently cause this code with no ill effects so it might be the resistance it wants to see isn't quite right on one or more coilpacks. Could be inside the ECU, could be the harness, could be a coil. You can test it all if you want or just ignore until the car actually starts misfiring.
    • I forgot you have a Nistune ECU. Use Nistune to do all the tests I mentioned instead of faffing with 30+ year old electrical connectors. You can read MAF volts off that too, there are reference values in the service manual to tell you roughly what it should be in different conditions.
    • No. I think it might be the AFM. Hence the use of the terms "swaptronics", which implies the use of swapping out electronics for the purpose of diagnosis. It's about the only way to prove that a small/niggling/whatever problem with an AFM or a CAS or similar is actually caused by that AFM/CAS/whatever. A known good item swapped in that still gives the same problem is likely to be caused somewhere else. They're all the same. Spraying AFMs with cleaner is an each way bet between cleaning it and f**king it.
    • Oh wow! This might actually work amazingly. Do you know the ratio of the diff? I was told the only thing you need to make sure of is if the front & rear diff ratios are the same. Ours is a 4.083 Thanks!
