Peanut92 Posted May 24, 2015 Author Share Posted May 24, 2015 Ok so the "warm engine" issue is still there. But it's obviously a sensor playing up when hot. So I will be ordering a z32 and a new 02 sensor and ect On another note we got to compression test it Cylinders 1-6 in order were 140,140,135,140,140,135 Which is great! So the RB20 will be staying for now. Now that we know that the turbo is f**ked and I plan to pick up a op6 on Tuesday which will be sent off for highflow shortly after. Question do I bother with an external gate or keep running internal with a 3 inch dump Is it really all wank factor. Or is there a noticeable difference? I've had cars with screamers. And it seems like the boost doesn't hit as strong and it feels like it's all noise. Considering I've driven my old 32 with internal gate. And it pulled great! Comparing it to other cars running slightly more boost similar setup etc but running an external gate Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/456682-the-tales-of-the-nightmare-32-resurrection/page/2/#findComment-7539236 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peanut92 Posted May 26, 2015 Author Share Posted May 26, 2015 Went to my house just before to pickup some parcels Look what arrived! Ordered the tomei plug elsewhere but Genuine Jecs brand new z32 afm And I've been waiting 5 years to buy this. My girlfriend ended up getting it for my birthday this month. It isn't really for the 32 specifically. I will obviously run it in there. But I won't be selling it with the car if the time ever came. But for now let's not think about that! Because I won't be selling it. Spent $1600 this week. Let's see what else shows up in the mail shall we?

Peanut92 Posted May 27, 2015 Author Share Posted May 27, 2015 Whole car is getting painted soon hopefully I'll keep you updated Althought I've been pulled over. And even had my car searched twice. Not a care in the world about the multi coloured car. Even had a highway patrol pull me over going down the main road of goulburn I had belts on the tires. I was there for 2 minutes followed by a have a good day...... Seems like they only go after neat cars now haha Although one hwp tried to corner me the other day I simply switched directions but my drivers side blinker was hanging out with a million pieces of duct tape. I think he was only really annoyed about that. If stares could kill I would be dead.

Peanut92 Posted June 7, 2015 Author Share Posted June 7, 2015 Hey guys Been a little while since my last update been flat out!!! had some progress and some parts arrive, had some parts installed and had some more shit go wrong !! So last weekend my replacement coilovers (or so i thought) had arrived and i was going in saturday to get them installed. Despite complaining of suspension noise only the bottom collars were replaced. Thats fine I have every suspension component on order, Ill install them and take it back. We will see if the noise is due to it being an "old car". Old girl back on the hoist This is how she sits now I've also installed solid subframe collars [emoji106] Ok so we had a slight hiccup one of the shops I visited. Had done up my wheels. Snapped 2 studs cross threaded 2 and actually stripped the splines on the last one causing it to free spin Here's the boys attacking it with me for hours on end! Wasn't a fun job. 6 hours later after a prybar, drill, hammer, die grinder, rattle gun, and assorted random bits of shit including a hockey stick it was finally off Here's some photos of the extensive damaged by a workshop.... Why open a workshop? The whole reason I went to one in the first place was I was sick of fixing other people's f**k ups and in the end... Have to repair them anyways! After a little swap lucky for me I knew this was coming and had prepared earlier in the day This is the final time the car goes to a workshop. I don't pay to finish the repairs myself. And have the job made 100x worse For jobs requiring a shop I will be monitoring the car myself. On a brighter note these had arrived this week Currently still need to install all this gear ! Also due to going away for the long weekend upon inspecting my front tires! So I bought some temp wheels while my new ones arrive Also last but not least these arrived last week didn't get to pick them up until yesterday they look a little funny due to the car being red and blue but they will soon make sense once the cars painted In case anyone was wondering this is a daily car that's a drifter of the weekend. Can't remember if I mentioned this before Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/456682-the-tales-of-the-nightmare-32-resurrection/page/2/#findComment-7546654 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peanut92 Posted June 8, 2015 Author Share Posted June 8, 2015 (edited) Extremely well considering! I mean we can see in the tread this would be a field trip for him. He pointed out a few faults checked my lights failed that Got his stick with the little trolley wheel "piece of engineering" he called it. Failed that A home done emissions test failed that "the black soot over the rear bar indicates that the car has been tampered with". Apparently being 4 different colours isn't an indication. Completely ignores everything else and doesn't even open the bonnet! I then re assured him the tires are brand new which they are and he definatly knew that. Considering I told him 5 times Let's me off with $104 fine. What a champion. This shows you how much your attitude can change a potential major grounded and fines galore. Sure old mate has a quota. And I'm not mr innocent. We both know the cars not quite legal. I'm happy by helping him fill that quota a little by him not trying to empty my pocket and ruin my weekend. This is what a proper officer of the law should be doing. He's just doing his job we all have that boss who tells us what to do and he is told to raise revenue etc. he can achieve this without being a flamin mongrel and he successfully done that The car may not be legal but it sure as hell is safe.
