Hey guys, up for sale is my 1993 Holden Barina 5 door (white) 1.3L automatic

I have acquired a VT commodore for cheap so its time to get rid of the 3rd car

125,000km on the clock - wouldn't pay too much attention to that

The good:

6 months rego (January 2015)

Major service just completed including

-timing belt

-engine and transmission oil changed

-air, fuel, engine and transmission filters changed

-spark plugs changed

-changed the front pads and has new brake fluid (also comes with rear pads, but I didn't change them as it didn't need it)

-rocker cover gasket changed

AC is cold

Awesome on fuel, approx. 8L of fuel per 100km around town

Mechanically its sound and hasn't failed me in the time ive had it

The bad:

The body has a few dings in it but nothing too bad

The tappets are a bit loud during start up until the engine is warm when the quiet down. (I have personally adjusted the tappets) Thicker oil should quiet them down

There is a small oil leak from engine, not sure where from as I was never concerned enough to worry about it

Only chasing $990, Awesome little daily

Located Prestons

0432528844 or PM for pics

cheers

    • Yep, the closest base tune available was for the GTT, I went with that and made all the logical changes I could find to convert it to Naturally Aspirated. It will rev fine in Neutral to redline but it will be cutting nearly 50% fuel the whole way.  If I let it tune the fuel map to start with that much less fuel it wont run right and has a hard time applying corrections.  These 50% cuts are with a fuel map already about half of what the GTT tune had.  I was having a whole lot of bogging when applying any throttle but seem to have fixed that for no load situations with very aggressive transient throttle settings. I made the corrections to my injectors with data I found for them online, FBCJC100 flowing 306cc.  I'll have to look to see if I can find the Cam section. I have the Bosch 4.9 from Haltech. My manifold pressure when watching it live is always in -5.9 psi/inHg
    • Hi My Tokico BM50 Brake master cylinder has a leak from the hole between the two outlets (M10x1) for brake pipes, I have attached a photo. Can anyone tell me what that hole is and what has failed to allow brake fluid to escape from it, I have looked on line and asked questions on UK forums but can not find the answer, if anyone can enlighten me I would be most grateful.
    • It will be a software setting. I don't believe many on here ever used AEM. And they're now a discontinued product,that's really hard to find any easy answers on. If it were Link or Haltech, someone would be able to just send you a ECU file though.
    • Yes sir am asking is there possible way from aem tuner from wiring pins 
    • Have you checked cam to crank timing and confirmed balancer marks are correct?
