If my life is for rent.and I don't learn to buy. Do I deserve nothing more than I get. For nothing I have is truly mine. (Dido)


The road I walk is paved in gold, to glorify my platinum soul. I am the closest thing to God, so worship me and never stop.


New engine

Def not running rich

Cams are mild

One of the injectors is ticking so most likely that's the culprit but I don't wanna upgrade to top feeds unless I'm sure.

Bit of a weird issue. Damn trouble shooting takes time. I pulled mine off the road for 2 months after I got it. Started misfiring and wouldn't start. New Fuel pump. Rewired immobiliser. Checked injectors. Replaced coil packs. Plugs. Cleaned throttle body and intake. Flushed intercooler. Cleaned acc valve. 2x different cat converters. New exhaust. Fixed split dump. Castor arm bushes and rack ends, new oil feed and return turbo. Box diff and eng oil. Chased and checked all wiring. Swaged and pressure tested all intercooler piping and re-welded Fitted catch can and washer bottle. New pc valve. Radiator and viscous coupling. Assuming immobiliser and coil packs were the problem. Did so much at once don't really know what was wrong. Got a bit of belt noise now when cold so hope it's not the timing belt. Has a whodowah whodowah noise at idle now like something is struggling.? Thinking maybe the vacuum lines aren't quite right. Would like to get one of you guys to sus it out. Vented to atmosphere before but catch can isn't pressurising the crankcase?

A 29-year-old man has been arrested and charged with unlawful possession after police uncovered hundreds of avocados at his home in rural Australia.
The startling discovery was made on Thursday, when police searched a home in Renmark, South Australia.
Officers found a number of items suspected of having been stolen during break-ins throughout the Riverland region, including antique clocks, building insulation and a canoe.
But while the owners of those items have been identified, no-one has claimed the hundreds of avocados located at the same address

    • I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.
    • My Nismo 1.5 churps a bit on reverse turns when cold, but besides that feels like a stock diff.
    • Yes, but, I paid cash and I'm pretty sure the receipt was in the bin 10 minutes after I got home Note to self, keep all receipts
    • Bunnings would have just handed you your money back on that one!
    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
