Fuel pump I installed previously was too big for the tank. Shaved off some of the some of the plastic teeth so itll fit in but it was touching the tank n due to vibrations it hums really loud.

So asking them to take it out and shave it off completely and ditch the rubber piece and use a vice to clamp it all together.

Or just f**king get rid of the humming lol

This job just got a lot more complicated. Turns out previous owner put a gtr fuel pump in the car, which is a lot larger and to fit it they removed the sender. So now Mark has to remove the pump and put a walbro pump in to fit the sender, the bill is roughly ~$500 now.

The plus side of this is I can run bigger injectors and higher boost down the line.

Bigger exhaust or stereo will also fix the humming

My stereo is mighty loud, exhaust is loud enough for me too....stupid pump is making me think I need a louder exhaust now....but less than $50 vs $2k.....I'd rather choose the $50 option...

Been seeing a few GTT 34 around my area lately....still really want one T_T.....ageing car though

Ok got Tue car back. Mark from C-red is such a top bloke. We sat down and discussed the car for 30mins going over everything, he estimates 6-8k worth of work already done to the motor. We discussed where to go next and budgets too. very good and friendly service. They out a walbro 400 in and charges for a 202?, as that's all he could get his hands on.

Splitfires, Custom Piping, Oil Filter relocation, Re-build, Candy Apple Red Spray job ;) and some other things I can't remember.

Edit: Memory kicked in - Front Mount intercooler and a bleed valve as well. (theres a couple things he noticed which I did not and I can't remember them)

    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
    • Yeah, I would have said the same. It makes me suggest that there are other things wrong, such that the ECU is totally unhappy with the broken sensor. The only other thought here is that maybe it is shorted, which might cause a different issue to the typical "disconnected" sensor.
