Did a brake booster on my old hand me down Camira.....I know the feeling, next time remove drivers seat.

Morning all.

It's Friday :)

tis indeed.

I am still considering offloading mine. I occasionally get get exited but 90% of the time I couldn't care less and it just sits there undriven. I am no longer interested in track stuff so really it is the wrong car for my interests.

Got a Mazda 3 in today 2009 model

She has had it from new

Had it serviced at 1800

20000

50000 and it's now up to

Wait for it

90000

They are ment to be serviced every 10000

It had about half a liter of oil in the sump

it ain't that difficult Bunts!

It can be, but thats because I have always been buying secondhand cars, so you want THAT particular car, I guess with new it is easier because you can get exactly the same thing elsewhere.

There was a kluger at the mechanics next door to work. Owners purchased it brand new. Had close to 200000kms on it in and was about 2.5 years old. Never had a service or any fluids checked. Engine seized up because no oil and the owner wanted Toyota to fix it under warranty haha

will you be buying new or second hand this time round?

Costs me half as much to insure the new car as the wedge. For about 2.5x the value and for regular use instead of 'once or twice a week'.

F*ck skylines.

No, I'm not selling the wedge :P

sell it and buy a VW beetle

We had one exactly the same at the old shop I used to work at

Except he had the 1000 check over done and thought that was it. Cars didn't need servicing to run

    • The attached document is fine. I just downloaded & opened it.
    • Hello, sorry for being late to join the discussion, but my clock just died on me.   Ive tried to look at Michaels digital clock repair.docx and it doesnt work maybe the file has expired.   Please let me know if you can re upload it or take some youtube videos to show us how to get the clock installed? thanks
    • I thought that might be the case, thats what I'll start saving for. Thanks for the info 
    • Ps i found the below forum and it seems to be the same scenario Im dealing with. Going to check my ECU coolant temp wire tomorrow    From NICOclub forum: s1 RB25det flooding at start up Thu Apr 11, 2013 7:23 am I am completely lost on this. Car ran perfectly fine when I parked it at the end of the year. I took the engine out and painted the engine bay, and put a fuel cell with an inline walbro 255 instead of the in tank unit I had last year. After reinstalling everything, the engine floods when the fuel pump primes. if i pull the fuel pump fuse it'll start, and as soon as I put the fuse back in it starts running ridiculously rich. I checked the tps voltage, and its fine. Cleaned the maf as it had some dust from sitting on a shelf all winter, fuel pressure is correct while running, but wont fire until there is less than 5psi in the lines. The fuel lines are run correctly. I have found a few threads with the same problem but no actual explanation of what fixed it, the threads just ended. Any help would be appreciated.

I found the problem though. There was a break in one of the ecu coolant temp sensor wires. Once it was repaired it fired right up with no problems. I would have never thought a non working coolant temp sensor would have caused such an issue.
    • Hi sorry late reply I didnt get a chance to take any pics (my mechanics on the other side of the city) but the plugs were fouled from being too rich. I noticed the MAF wasn't genuine, so I replaced it with a genuine green label unit. I also swapped in a different ignitor, but the issue remains. I've narrowed it down a bit now: - If I unplug and reconnect the fuel lines and install fresh spark plugs, the car starts right up and runs perfectly. Took it around the block with no issues - As soon as I shut it off and try to restart, it won't start again - Fuel pressure while cranking is steady around 40 psi, injectors have good spray, return line is clear, and the FPR vacuum is working. It just seems like it's getting flooded after the first start I unplugged coolant sensors to see if its related to ECU flooding but that didnt make a difference. Im thinking its related to this because this issue only started happening after fixing coolant leaks and replacing the bottom part of the stock manifolds coolant pipe. My mechanic took off the inlet to get to get to do these repairs. My mechanics actually just an old mate who's retired now so ill be taking it to a different mechanic who i know has exp with RBs to see if they find anything. If you have any ideas please send em lll give it a try. Ive tried other things like swapping the injectors, fuel rail, different fuel pressure regs, different ignitor, spark plugs, comp test and MAF but the same issue persists.
