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 :)

    • The final part arrived today to un-clampify and simplify the intake Who would have though a 1/2" hose stainless bulkhead fitting designed for below waterline bilge pumps would be what I needed Test fit on a 3" offcut I had laying around to see if it would work, and it worked a treat All going well the intake will be on its "final version" tomorrow 
    • Good luck on the weekend mate
    • Must have been an absolute nightmare to drive when the power steer was out, the rack ratio/wheel size/caster is all set up for power assistance
    • Welcome to SAU, what are you looking at buying?
    • I checked the injectors again (1 and 2, since they’re easiest to access) to make sure they weren’t clogged. Even though the entire fuel system had been cleaned, I wanted to be certain. Everything looked clean, so I reinstalled and connected everything. When I started the car to confirm everything was okay, it immediately revved up high, so I shut it off straight away. I checked to see if I’d missed a vacuum hose or something, but everything was connected. On the second attempt, the car ran without the high idle, but I noticed a distinct “compressed air” sound coming from the engine bay. Tracing the sound, I pushed injector #6 forward slightly and the noise stopped — it turned out it wasn’t seated properly, despite the fuel rail being bolted down. While holding it in place, the car idled steadily without stalling and ran for over 5 minutes. At this point, I pulled all six injectors out just in case I hadn’t seated them correctly or dirt had gotten onto the O-rings. Unfortunately, I discovered that I had damaged 3 out of 6 injectors (the OEM 270cc ones) during installation. So yes, this was my fault. Since only the pintle caps were damaged, I’ve ordered a Fuel Injector Service Kit from NZEFI to refurbish them. In the meantime, I reinstalled my new injectors – the car now idles fine for over 15 minutes without stalling. I have not attempted to drive it so far. It’s not perfect yet, as it hesitates when the throttle is pressed, but it’s a big improvement. Unplugging the IACV with the new injectors idles at around 800rpm, even with the IACV screw tightened fully. But this is probably due to tune.
