Mugabetown - Whoretownin' At It's Worst.


Recommended Posts

We have been pretty happy with the outlander thus far. No off roading yet tho.

Awaits 400 photos of the bogged outlander... Had an uncle try to take his on Fraser that was an interesting day lmao

Small "4wd's" are not for 4wding, most are incapable and just to Danm low

Unless you Usualy have lots of experiance with 4wding you can run into troubles

But I will say. Suzuki's they go hard off road

Anyways I have talked to ants about purchasing some parts and I have found a new direction for my car with the power side of things

This means forged bottom end :D

Interesting definition of 'real 4x4' you have :P

Low range, traction control, ladder frame chassis and same clearance as your navara. And at least it won't get stuck spinning diagonally opposite wheels in the air like yours will :P Edited by Bunta

Oh and stock it is on the low side, but nothing a cheap lift cant fix, and we are not into 'off road' where you go out and find places to get stuck and break shit, we just want a car that can do the fire trails ect.

I like where this is going :)

Morning folks.... Well events yesterday afternoon/night werent what I expected. Got a call from a mate at midday asking if I want to accompany him down to Matty @ Pits to get his car on the dyno just to check the replacement cam he got in is fine. I thought hell why not I finish work at 1:30pm it will be a good drive.

Got there at 3pm and and we got the car onto the dyno..

Matty played around with it for a while and fixed up a few things here and there. It came to about 6pm and was doing a few final power runs...

Knock Knock.......... who's there? Spun a bearing in the last 10 mins on dyno...

After many profanities were used Matty ended up dropping us at the train station and we got the train back to Sandgate then got a lift home....

Got home at about 10:30pm and then up again to start work at 5:30am...

Tired Scott is tired..

You went all the way down to see Matty Spry and didn't swing pass to say hi????

I also went to bed late paying for it now :/

Sorry to hear about your mates car Scottie.

What power did it make before she gave way?

    • Ok so after much research and talking with knowledgeable people I've got my turbo conversion done and it's all running great other than 1 small issue.  Car has remained auto with the na auto and tcm, I've used a stagea ecu with. NIstune board and everything is great other than my gear selection on the dash. It illuminates park, reverse, neutral, 3rd and 2nd. But nothing drive or what gear your in when you pop it into tiptronic.  I'm sure there is may e 1 wire in the ecu plug I need to move to rectify this. Dose anyone here have any ideas?   Cheers guys
    • Sorry I haven't been following all the detail, so you may have tried this. Does it idle with the tiniest bit of throttle you can add? You've mentioned the IACV, does it have an AAC valve and have you adjusted it at all (ie, screw the idle adjust screw all the way in, then back it out a couple of turns until idle is stable)?
    • My bad, I unplugged the one underlined in red instead of yellow before. With the car started, after unplugging the IACV (the one underlined in yellow), it idled at around 400/500 for 3 seconds before stalling. Attempting to start the car without the IACV will not start the car.   It does stutter and sputter for around 5 seconds before dying. However, immediately after starting it, you can already hear some slight sputters from the exhaust.   It won't start with the AFM unplugged. If it is when the car has already started, it stalls in a few seconds.   Yesterday, I did take some logs using Nistune of 3 scenarios. Car idling till it stalls Car idling and unplugging the IACV Car idling and removing the AFM I also have some previous logs of when the Car is idling till it stalls and when driving and it cuts. I am not really knowledgeable enough to understand what to look for. After every test, car idles rougher and rougher, until I have to stop. It will be fine the day after.
    • There is no difference between a 17x8 and an 18x8. The total diameter of the tyre needs to remain +/- the same (so you don't mess up the gearing, speedo reading, and clearance when turning front wheels..... so you just need to use a lower profile tyre on th 18 than you do on the 17. /rocket surgery.
    • I thought the same to start with. But then I thought it was one of those LCAs where the end of the ARB goes through a bushing in the LCA itself, instead of having an end link.
