Now thats a mess lol

the worst mess ive had to fix was a car that hit an island at 100km, bent all tie rods etc, then tried to drive home. 

 

it grabbed the harness in the wheel arch and pulled the harness out of the cab and wrapped it all up around the wheel

some people are morons, they are lucky cutting corners didnt result in the car shutting down in the middle of nowhere
 
only things worse is scotch-locks or twist-n-tape


Its going to be a few hours of fixing that up..[emoji29]
Cut solder heat shrink or see if i can just replace the harness if im able to

Why would this have been done like someone seriously needs a bitch slap.
Now i have this mess to clean up.[emoji29]

Side cutters and wire strippers will be blunt by the time you've finished. I've found the dude who did this to your car man. The nutty professor auto electrics. download.jpeg

I'm running the hypergear art43ss2 turbo with a stainless oil feed and blitz boost controller on the rb25. No probs so far. Solid and strong.

340whp at 18 psi on stock internals. I would agree with the solder and heat shrink. Mate your not alone. I had to rewire tons of stuff under the dash, in the engine bay, in the valley to new ignition coils, the stereo and amps and the hicas. Thank the son of rajab the ecu with nistune was all good. It's a part of owning a animal that has been molested by a freak. I had a load of rattling coming from under the dash and when I pulled it everything almost dropped on the floor. The best thing I done before I started was to take out the front seat. Lying on my Back for hours. Madness!

It's taken about 3 months of solid weekends to make it into my own reliable car that I trust. The big test was the Albany trip to race wars. So when we got home it was a full weekend of chasing down rattles squeaks and squealing. Probably about another $1500 at my mates panel shop and she will finally be the woman I've always dreamed of. Lady smurf with a tan!

When I typed in the son of God it changed it to rajab. Who is this? What's your operating number?

Wtf how dare my phone change God to rajab. I find this deeply concerning?

Has anyone been watching the 24/7 F1 channel on fox 5. 1988 MP4-4 ayerton senna. Left foot clutch right hand 6 speed H pattern.

    • After @Kinkstaah debacle, I'd never want to try and get it right 😛
    • The hood lines up with the fenders. The front bar doesn't perfectly line up with the fenders where the wheel arch is. You have to 'squeeze' the front bar 'in' as it wants to naturally flare out and be longer on the sides. There's a few threads where people notice this when they only swap a GTR style bumper and front bar. Unless you have genuine OEM items - you may be better served getting conversion kits. There are GTT bumpers to fit GTR hoods. There are GTR hoods (non genuine) to fit the GTT bracketry. MAY  
    • The real question is, on some of those wild roads they call highways, how many times did a farmer in an old ute from the early 2000s blaze past you over double lines?   Tassie is a wild and really cool place, and after doing a work related road trip there January of 24, I understand why Targa Tasmania is ran there, and is so tough to do well at! We had a brand new Camry Hybrid that handled quite nicely, and thankfully weren't in an old car, because cresting some of those hills in a 100kmh zone for it to suddenly be like "surprise f**kers, this is a recommended 30kmh hard right turn" wouldn't be pretty. We weren't racing the Camry around, but we weren't slouching in the bends either. But my lord those old farmers know their old clapped out utes, and those roads, as they were absolutely hammering it!   You're also super lucky to make it up to Mt Wellingtong this time of year. It's often road closed with snow/ice! Also, I hope you hit up Salamander Road in Hobart for some insanely good food (I highly recommend the dimly lit Irish pub for a Guiness Pie, or even the bangers and mash!!!)   How long did the Ferry take to get across? I want to do a road trip of Tas on my own time, but I get horrifically sea sick, and I don't want me on the Ferry, just the car 😛
    • So far so good, about 30km on it so far and nothing out of sorts yet thankfully
    • Look at @Kinkstaah's thread on the issue.
