Yeah man for sure. When ever i was board i would go pull the stagea apart and fix bits i want happy with. Picked this up for 3k (kit, exhaust & coilovers worth that alone) so will be a good little project to get her back to her glory.


That integrated audio is crazy! I've never seen the speakers placed like that before. Was it done in Australia or did it come out like that?

The owner advised the the stereo was done in Japan prior to importing to Australia. Im picking the car up tomorrow night so will be able to go over it in more detail soon. Exciting times
Welcome back. What plans have you got for this one?

1st thing is to get her running (currently not due to bcm). Then not sure from there. No where near what i did to the other one. I do like this design thoughFB_IMG_1480851040550.thumb.jpeg.1236cb80

So today i got some time to clean up the stagea can check over.

- battery compartment cleaned and bung removed
- new battery terminals
- new battery
- stereo system power cable connected and tested (sounds amazing) roof and rear screen wiring needs to be checked
- old redundant alarm/wiring removed
- fluid levels checked (radiator missing overflow bottle) and needing to be bled
- area around wiper arms cleaned up
- bcm casing appears to be broken and with it throwing a bcm error code i can hear it the internal relay clicking not allowing car to start. (Another bcm sourced)
- a photo for the size of the front tweeters. Never seen one this big.

    • Just planning to have the wiring neat and hide as much as possible.
    • The sodium acetate, mixed with citric acid, doesn't actually buffer each other. Interestingly though, if you used Sodium Acetate, and acetic acid, THAT becomes a buffer solution. Additionally, a weak acid that can attack a metal, is still a weak acid that can attack a metal. If you don't neutralise it, and wash it off, it's going to be able to keep attacking. It works the same way when battery acid dries, get that stuff somewhere, and then it gets wet, and off it goes again breaking things down. There's a reason why people prefer a weak acid, and it's because they want TIME to be able to be on their side. IE, DIY guys are happy to leave some mild steel in vinegar for 24 hours to get mill scale off. However, if you want to do it chemically in industry, you grab the muriatic acid. If you want to do it quicker at home, go for the acetic acid if you don't want muriatic around. At the end of the day, look at the above thumbnail, as it proves what I said in the earlier post, you can clean that fuel tank up all you want with the solution, but the rust that has now been removed was once the metal of the fuel tank. So how thin in spots is your fuel tank getting? If the magazine on the left, is the actual same magazine as on the right, you'll notice it even introduces more holes... Well, rust removal in general actually does that. The fuel tank isn't very thick. So, I'll state again, look to replace the tank, replace the fuel hanger, and pump, work out how the rust and shit is making it past the fuel filter, and getting into the injectors. That is the real problem. If the fuel filter were doing its job, the injectors wouldn't be blocked.
    • Despite having minimal clothing because of the hot weather right now, I did have rubber gloves and safety glasses on just in-case for most of the time. Yes, I was scrubbing with my gloves on before, but brushing with a brush removes the remaining rust. To neutralize, I was thinking distilled water and baking soda, or do you think that would be overkill?
    • You can probably scrub the rust with a toothbrush or something. After you get the rust off flush well with water to neutralize and you will probably want to also use a fuel tank sealer to keep it from rusting again.
    • The sodium citrate solution is designed to buffer the citric acid to keep it from attacking metal quite so much, the guy that came up with that recipe did a ton of testing on how much metal loss occurs over time and it's nothing crazy unless you forget about it for months:
