Yay.

What's up with the car?

welll fun fact....

It was on the dyno on Friday and was all going well... Started to hiccup a little bit on higher boooooost (E85).

So trying to nut out what is causing that and then back up onto the Dyno for the final run.

Is that the last outstanding item before you get it back?

Nice, hopefully they can get it all sorted soon.

I was secretly hoping to get my car back in a couple of months a beat you to it ;)

Joke of it is, if i didn't want to go to E85 i would have had it back about 3 months ago.

Motor rebuilt again, head work done, practically all of the wiring in the car is new, a heap of suspension bushes replaced, shocks serviced (ill be replacing them soon anyway) new alternator, radiator complete flush and clean x3, drive shafts serviced and bearings replaced where needed, new Gauges, new Oil cooler,

uhhh

all the shit for the Haltech and E85

That's just from the top of my head. Ultimate have basically looked for any little issue and have fixed it.

and then stemming from there work...

What needs doing:

Rear diff

New interwarmer (at some point)

Complete suspension overhaul (im leaning towards a full nismo setup e.g Links, sway bars, and shocks). If it isn't full nismo it will be nismo links and sway bars with MCA blues

What i want to do:

Fujitsubo TI exhaust with TI front pipes.

Quaife front diff

What i'm undecided on:

Gearbox rebuild or putting an OS gearset in it

So i'm actually getting closer to the car being finished.... But a few big $$ expenses to get there.

New GTR badges made for the front guards to replace the "GT" badges. :woot:

You're joking right? In case anyone mistakes it for a Lamborghini?

Besides the GT badges on the side are a generational thing like the distinctive rear lights. Why remove them?

I de badged the gt badges cause I don't like the look lol

These gtr badges are small. Basically the same size as the gt badges.

Realized they were small as I recognized the Razer mouse mat :)

I dunno about incorrect badges on cars....

Look forward to seeing how they look. You need to get this thing back and enjoy driving it again :)

    • 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.
    • Lock me in mate, although I'm not sure if I'll be heading up from Goulburn or down from Sydney, either way, return will be back to Goulburn 
    • Sounds good, we will aim to be there! @The Bogan I'll give you a shout if you are heading up to campbelltown for the meet too.
    • Before I get to the test day, just to finish off the android head unit. This is a demo from car start up....the standard/host system takes a few seconds to boot (same as all v37) but Android comes up quickly. In this vid I'm using the delivered launcher but have set the default to Agami since which is easier to navigate when if use primarily 5 apps. You can see the host system still takes over when required eg putting it in reverse, and you can switch between Android and not by holding the back button 3 sec. It is pretty responsive (fast) but you can see I had to press harder than expected a couple of times.  I still have the phone connected to the stock system, and that also seamlessly takes over Android music playing. v37-android-demo.mp4 The bigger reason that I put this in though is so that I can use Ecutek directly on the head unit. That gives me a dash with logging (up to 20MB only), high and low value warnings on any parameter etc etc. I've run a USB cable from the Ecutek OBD dongle to a USB input on the unit, easy. v37-ecutek-demo.mp4   The unit did freeze on the launcher the other day, I think Agami was trying to verify the license when it didn't have a data connection...will monitor and report back if there are any other problems but so far I'm very happy with the upgrade.
    • Nah that is just crappy GPS mapping, I did have a small excursion (cold tyres, damp track, surprise!), will post up that when I get a chance.
