Mugabetown - Whoretownin' At It's Worst.

Hi Mr President.

Ready for another epic week?

Damn straight. Yourself?

Got the first part of the training catch up this week. Meeting with a few boys for drinks to get a few things underway! Feeling pumped. Should be an awesome way to finish the week.

For interests sake, if I was to buy a non rego'd car from NSW, that happens to have had an engine swap along the line somewhere (engine number not updated), when I get the car to QLD and in prep for QLD rego, should I notify them of engine number change before I get the mobile roady guy out? Or? From what I remember, the mobile roady guy compared engine numbers before signing off on Cara's zed (which we bought from NSW).

Enlighten me

SKIDS!!! Morning all

Morning Nark. Was thinking this morning, since you're so anti-nissan, maybe you should get brakes from the new HSV. The bus goes past a Holden dealer and I saw the brakes and just thought, why would they need so much stopping power on something that produces SFA horsepower?

You would need to notify them before the mobile RW guy comes out.

Don't you work for TMR? :P

I thought that might be the case, however, since the car isn't on the QLD books, what would they update exactly?

Hell no I don't work for them, just in one of their buildings ;)

You raise a valid point. They would probably create a shell of the car on their systems and note it accordingly so that it's updated at time of rego - if they ran like an effective corporation.

Sure sure.... :P

I duno dude 435kw needs some stopping, also I didn't cook my brakes on Sunday. I only cook them with you guys cause it's like track day as opposed to line ups

    • roof rail delete used to be a thing, they were made locally for a while too
    • I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps  
    • According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car. 
    • It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.
    • If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.
