Kept very busy over the xmas / new year break...

The shed is finally getting to where I pictured it.

Dunno what I ever did without a hoist.

Completed an SST service on the Evo, surprised at how much I don't mind the 'auto'

Chucked the TE's on to see how they fit ready for extra curricular activities...

Well it turns out I stop working away and somehow forget about this page... Unfortunately working FIFO interstate and COVID hitting basically meant I lost my job very early on in all this (March.

Pulled the GTR out of retirement over the weekend for a hillclimb. Managed a surprising second place, in my class. Running some 5 year old secondhand Nitto NT01's which were ok once the trac

Finally got time yesterday to do a few of those fiddly little jobs but am very happy with the end result. Pictures speak for themselves...

i am also in the process of having a little shop made...i was wondering if you think its worth it to get the floor epoxied? They say its easier to clean but i truly like the finish you have on your better. let me know your thoughts mate.

I'd always planned when building the shed to coat the floors but when it came to it I looked into the costs and had second thoughts.

My mate then just recently put me on to this clear epoxy that a lot of industrial builders use that you can add a tint too and was a fraction of the cost.

I did ~100sqm for less than $250 AUD and i'm very happy with the results, dropped a few things already and it's help up.

Cleaning up, even just dirt/dust is a breeze now compared to the bare concrete.

Also had a few bits for the 32 Cerkoted to continue the tidy up of the engine bay, nuts and bolts really stand out now so that's next on the list, think black zinc coat

Though a more pressing issue has now arisen, I have all the parts re-installed but the car won't start, it turns over but doesn't fire :-|

Obviously the fuel rail was removed along with the throttle linkages which I went back over but all seems ok to my untrained eye. Hoping it's something simple but so far it has me stumped.

Looks sexual, and are your fuel lines reversed?

Fuel -> Fuel Filter -> Rail -> FPR -> Return to tank

this was my first thought as i did this with my old gtst many years back but it's near impossible to reverse the fuel lines on the GTR...

Closer pics of how the costing came up on the linkages please? Was looking at mine today and wondering what the best solution is to get them looking good again. Did the require them disassembled or did you send them in complete as they came off the car?

Apologies on the terribly slow reply...

I sent them in complete but they ended up disassembling them...

Ended up being this pesky little bugger, still not sure how I blew this (25a - Engine Control) and how i didn't check fuses first 🙄

Three auto parts stores later and I have a new one, albeit 30 instead of 25 amp...

Playing around on the tig this R&R getting my practice on before I tackle the Evo's exhaust, getting better every time I play, just don't do enough of it...

This is an exhaust I'm doing for my 125cc Yamaha Raptor Quad...

      I have more than enough digging, laying blocks, moving gravel, airrating, feeding and top soiling the grass, and setting up the veggie gardens growing some seedlings,  and then removing all the unused rock to keep me busy for the next few months at least,  hopefully the rain stops soon so I can get a few hours in this arvo, but, before that Sunday is washing day, is every body happy, you bet your life we are Nice country road day drives are a day off whenever I'm muscle sore from all the landscaping at the moment, but, more epic multiple day drives will start once the majority of the big jobs outside are completed

      Recommendation for engine oil funnel spill free

      By MBS206 · Posted

      I thought I'd come back and add something I JUST learned. A Toyota LandCruiser with a 1HZ, mates perfectly with a bottle of Nulon brake fluid. As in, it perfectly screws in. Great make shift funnel when you cut the bottom of it off. This may work for your Corolla.   Unfortunately, tipping a 10L drum is much harder than a 4 to 6L bottle, and they no longer include the easy pour tap which was just perfection to use previously.

      Fuel Pump Control Module & Dropping Resistor

      By EndZee · Posted

      Guys since i bought r33 gts25t coupe 1994 automatic a/t(manual swap 350z gearbox)  all i got is problems, always problems. Lets start with that when i turn key into ignition(ON) fuel pump doesnt always works. Sometimes i have to turn key twice Off/on/off/on until it primes. Its new, dw300 - 340lph. My gearbox broke so i did gearbox swap, install different intake manifold, injectors and i take pipes. Car was sitting in garage for more than half a year. I did assembly all not that long ago and when i turn ignition cant hear prime. All of sudden it stopped working. Theres many videos on YouTube how to make relay mod on r33 straight from battery so i did and it doesnt work! 😰 30 - battery positive  87 - positive from fuel pump to relay 85, 86 - one of two wires from original fuel pump wires(light blue, grey) and it didn’t work. so I check on ignition and took original BLUE relays wires from trunk, next to fuses. (I believe it’s IGN+ and ECU pin 18. it didn’t work…  tried connecting (IGN+ from og relay) and (ECU 104 from 1of4 FPCM wires) to my new relay 85/86 and it didn’t work.  I unplug FPCM. Didn’t work. im thinking what’s wrong   fuel pump is working, if I leave IGN+ on 85 and 86 straight to ground it works but it’s just nonstop. Since it getting constant 12v after key in ON. light blue wire gives me 6-8v.  so how this should be connected? What causing ECU not giving — on pin? Or I did sth wrong and that’s why it doesn’t work? I need negative signal on ECU that control fuel pump. What this should be?
