Hi ALL,

For those of you bored, the long awaited car feature of my car is now available for viewing in the lastest HOT4s mag #112. Not a bad job by Rick Mac and the write up (page 42) gives a plug for SUAWA. The photo shoot for SUAWA should be out soon and again just showing how good the West is in producing some TOP, HARD cars. For all those who have giving me support over the last year a big thanks :)

The car is now (paully) going back to the Xspeed boys for a bit of work, the car should be back on the streets in early Dec. See yas all then. :wassup:

If someone could scan it or keep a copy of the mag around I'd love to have a look. Can't get hot 4's in the UK... well i think you can get a version of it - but it's pretty crappy - like most of the 'hot' & 'modified' cars around here.. :D

Thanks guy for all the congats, it is nice to get the car out and about in a couple of mags. :cheers:

Skyzerr33 - It is only taking that amount of time (rebuild) cause Im away for that amount of time stopping boaties from coming in Aust. Playing policeman at Christmas Is.

Paully - Would have loved to be there for PAS, I think it is going to be something special. I suppose I have to just make Motorvation or something like that. For progress of the work, drop into Xspeed and have a look and that way you can keep me up to date at sea hehehehe.

XRW - I saw most of you after your photo shoot driving thru FREO. There is some nice looking and sounding REX's out there. If you have read the artical in HOT4s, you will see that I have a soft spot for the Subby. Nice work.

Thanks again everyone and see ya's around, CAMPINPERTH - dont worry mate will save you a copy, I might have bought one or two hehehehehehehe :headspin:

    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
