What sort of issues do people have if plugs too cold? If I run 8's on the street... Would I be better off saving 8's for track days only?

Fouling and yes. BTW, please pay $400 to photobucket so they can show your images.

My plugs were just fouly (which is odd because we had them cleaned when my turbo went on.. maybe a month/1500kms ago), and previously were never that state. My specific plugs looked like this:

So there wasn't a great deal of room for anything when carbon gets involved. But yeah, they were a bit "Carbony" which is odd because E85 generates less carbon and 'fouling'.

But yeah, misfires at idle/very low load and misfires at 20psi, Carboning up, looking rather "tan" or a darker tan than mentioned made me think they were no longer the best option.

All hail BCPR7ES (I bought 18) :P

There is a Melbourne 88E shareholder meet up tonight, you should go meet some of your new pals.

I picked up 80,000 shares this morning for cheap, so that's paid for by approx tax return.
Feeling even better about my 6.4c sell a few weeks ago now

Yeah good move.
See if it hits a new low tomorrow from pommy influence, but I'm just gonna wait it out. They still haven't used artificial lift yet... 11,000 ft is a long way.

Details? I did not know about it

Another 30,000 for me

I picture it in my head a scene similar to ^ that, but I know it would be the complete opposite.

Traralgon Toyota don't carry stock for 2006-2011 Hilux front rotors. And takes them over a week to get stock from Melbourne.

It's probably the most common hilux model in gippsland and a consumable part. They stock the brake pads but "we don't replace brake pads unless the rotors are done at the same time". So why would you stock one and not the other??

I've been to obscure car club meets, motorcycle club meets, LANs with people only known through internet, and the Melbourne screening of The Red Pill...I've learned to expect absolutely anything and the term "all shapes and sizes".

When work throw out over 2 grand worth of old equipment doing a cleanup, I'll take that.. already sold it too, self bonus.

Also had what looked to be Joffa look at my car on Sunday to possibly buy :D

    • For fuelling the Haltechs have O2WB fuel controllers. Very useful for helping tuning VE and correcting for *small* mistakes. Of course if your injector/cam/trigger/sensor data is just wrong (or for a GTT which is not a GT) then you will get impossible reactions to things. I am sure you know this already but the reason people don't typically put haltechs (or any Aftermarket ECU) on GT's is because there's practically no real gains to be had - So this knowledge won't be commonplace.
    • Can someone tell me if the cracks seen in the rear sway bar bushings in these photo's is unacceptable from a roadworthy point of view?  
    • Shouldn't need a "base map" for anything other than guidance to ignition tuning. You just need the engine capacity right, the injector size right, and something, almost anything, for a VE map. On an NA engine, fuelling is almost completely a function of load signal & rpm. It should run and drive with a completely flat fuel map. It will be too lean under load, but that's easily fixed. We used to tune all ECUs without any base map. There were no such things (until someone had tuned a near stock engine on one, and then they had a "base map".
    • What did you actually buy/how much did it cost? When I got mine in like.. 2017...? 2019? the aim was to run Torque for gauges via ODB2 and things like Track Addict/Laptimers/Dashcam/Reversecam/Spotify etc. Mine never broke, but I wonder if you've got the same needs (it sounds like it). Cause I liked the idea of being able to do anything with it. That said, yours also cost 3x the cost of what I spent so... food for thought.  
    • For me there is a massive difference in manufacturer or big brand crippled android (Sony, Kenwood etc) vs the sort of thing I've installed here, which is basically just a tablet in DIN form factor with open Android, and the other model of course is mirroring - Android Auto/Carplay. I hate the locked down manufacturer and AA options where they decide what apps I'm allowed to install, including the Launcher but also importantly things like Ecutek (for this car) or Real Dash (Stagea) are not supported. Plus those crippled versions tend to be slower due to both overheads and lower spec hardware. On the other hand, when this breaks I'll likely be in trouble for support....but how is that different to owning an Infiniti anyway
