Not bhed aye?

Recently had laser eye surgery so have a few days off work (Not getting paid either, as I'm a contractor) but swapped out the study light with something brighter (used to be the guest room hence the fancy mood lighting pendant). That the missus' desk, hence the girly shit. My side is hectic.

Before

That is nice. May I ask how many pesos Or handjobs that cost? (not sure how you pay for things)

Pod/Catch cover, intake pipe, catch can, hot pipe, mod comp cover & weld cast elbow, 3.5" stainless turbo back exhaust, 2" gate merged after cat, and also screamer pipe option was $6.8k (LOL).

You mean 1.2 laundries?

Okay, all black, no oil leaks, now to go through a few tanks of fuel then clean all the filters, new oil and see what this T3/T4 eBay turbo can do on 98RON.

Installed new door handles and did a run in tune of the doors. Once it's running well, it will go for a final tune and once done, new tap ware should be ready too.

1/4 turn taps installed, had a massive laugh when I couldn't work out why they didn't work and water kept running.

Turns out they come in 2x pieces and you need to install the inner part first by removing the outter section.

Anyhow, Not bhed

    • After using a protractor for an actually accurate assessment of what is required,  and by NOT using my uncalibrated eyeball I worked out I need a 25° silicone bend from the TB ro the MAF, but, my choice was either a 30° or a 23° (23° is a weird spec), so I grabbed the 23° one from Raceworks I also grabbed 1mtr of 3" straight from Just Jap, I needed 350mm, but they only had 300mm, or 1mtr lengths....meh Also ordered a 1/2" hose bulkhead fitting from fleabay, this has a smoothish mushroom looking head (they are designed for below the water line of boats) that will fit inside the bend, the hose bit and threaded bit looks to long, but nothing that a hacksaw cannot fix if required, the hose will then just get jamed on the threaded bit up to the retaining nut Fingers crossed and the unsightly amount of hose clamps will be reduced down to 4 once all the parts arrive 
    • Oil change does not trigger code 21. Code 21 is for coilpacks primary side connection. You can try to clear the code with a battery disconnect, hold down the brake pedal to drain capacitors through the brake lights with the ignition on for 10-15 seconds before you reconnect the battery. I have seen R35 coil conversion permanently cause this code with no ill effects so it might be the resistance it wants to see isn't quite right on one or more coilpacks. Could be inside the ECU, could be the harness, could be a coil. You can test it all if you want or just ignore until the car actually starts misfiring.
    • I forgot you have a Nistune ECU. Use Nistune to do all the tests I mentioned instead of faffing with 30+ year old electrical connectors. You can read MAF volts off that too, there are reference values in the service manual to tell you roughly what it should be in different conditions.
    • No. I think it might be the AFM. Hence the use of the terms "swaptronics", which implies the use of swapping out electronics for the purpose of diagnosis. It's about the only way to prove that a small/niggling/whatever problem with an AFM or a CAS or similar is actually caused by that AFM/CAS/whatever. A known good item swapped in that still gives the same problem is likely to be caused somewhere else. They're all the same. Spraying AFMs with cleaner is an each way bet between cleaning it and f**king it.
    • Oh wow! This might actually work amazingly. Do you know the ratio of the diff? I was told the only thing you need to make sure of is if the front & rear diff ratios are the same. Ours is a 4.083 Thanks!
