really? must be the weather. is the car wash open there yet?

i couldnt jump start the gloria, so battery is on charge now

Dunno anything about a car wash

About 5 Skylines there but very much outnumbered by the 70s muscle

7 new mustangs; no one gives a shit

R33 starting to get looks when leaving = classic mode nearly activated

Camaros :worship:

when I was in Gosford after WTAC there was a new mustang meet going on at the car museum. some of the mustangs already had supercharger kits on them. not bad for a bunch of middle-aged dudes. i like the gun metal colour i think.

Maybe I'm stuck in a time era but the new Mustangs don't do it for me, or really any new cars for that matter

Might appreciate them more in a few years

Do walkinshaw even work on anything that isn't a HSV? Or do they only give out badges to HSVs?



Someone at work has a 2015 mini Cooper s. New engine under warranty at 13,000kms. Most of the motors out of the factory had incorrect crank bearing clearances. Lots of lunches motors. Each Cooper model has had a different engine, the latest 2 have had the most issues. Bit of a joke really

From the passenger seat you tell them alright let's turn back now, at which point the driver takes you back to your house, where you left a photocopy of their driver's licence, that you asked them for before handing over the keys.

If they look Sudanese then maybe get the money first

I think it's fairly easy to judge character.. I let a guy ride my bike & was fine, facebook stalked him before hand and everything checked out (stories of old bikes, the family car in pictures etc.) he left his license and car keys as well.

Gotta be careful with that shit though, cars are easy just go with them and bring a gun 

I'm not exactly the toughest guy! Lmao [emoji23]
So i was more thinking if they took it for a drive, me in the passenger seat and around the corner there mates are there in another car waiting haha...

Its pretty easy to get a fake id these days too

If they're willing to do that they'll take the car without worrying about bothering you for a test drive

Walkinshaw do kits for the ss etc just like harrop and all the others... Not sure on prices for my engine but the '325kw' kit which is the first stage of their kits, was about 5k on the 6L...exhaust CAI and tune... Or drop 20k on the full kit, supercharger etc and be putting out a lazy 460+rwkw (hub dyno)

Given my engine is 320kw stock, the 325 kit becomes the 375 kit I believe... Seem to be big losses though, 375kw resulting in like 280rwkw on their hub dyno... Maybe I've been out of the game too long but I don't remember skylines etc having that much drive train loss..

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
