Has anyone dealt with Viva Garage before? i really want a front lip they have on their website but they never reply to emails or pick up the phone when i call. Ive tried multiple times over a few months still nothing. On that note does anyone know where i can get a front lip like this other than Viva Garage?

Ah fair enough. I'm located in Sydney so I had to get it shipped either way and ended up just ordering it and paying online.

In saying that, I never really had to communicate with them so I can't comment on that

Did you pay with paypal? because for some reason its not working and i cant contact them to ask why. I just feel like if they are this hard to contact, then are they really that trust worthy to not use paypal? i dunno maybe im just overly cautious.

I know of one other person from SA that's been trying to contact them with no luck. I think somethings up.

Yeah it's really frustrating like I said I've tried over a few months and have never spoken to an actual person, I've only ever had a really unhelpful reply to an email aha, do they not want sales?

I'm sure there's something going on behind the scenes. Better off forking out for something else.

 

They were getting into importing and containers or something. Something might have gone sour or personal issues with employees/owner.

Only issue is trying to find something like the one I was trying to buy haha. I've only found one similar so for and it was double the price! so frustrating

    • Given you're running a 2.8 and my 2.5 is not really like for like, I suspect there could be a bit more timing you could give it. What is the kW yield per degree you're putting through it? Here's my E85 map to give you an idea, where it was I could still get another 3~4kW per degree thrown at it.  
    • It turns out that Setrab make a fan specifically for the oil cooler which is great and I've installed it with minimal swearing. I removed my 2x 12in push fans from the front of my aircon condenser and wired them into this. My main thermo fans kick on when I use the aircon anyway and would effectively already be working as puller fans through the condensor which is infront of the rad. The push fans (understandably) didn't really do much in the config they were previously in so now they're out. Now we're on to the "Oil fan doesn't really do much either!". Yes I'll duct it next if it does nothing in heavy use which it shouldn't. But hey, the object exists and fits great and is cool. Let me have this. The car is still in the "do my fittings leak oil now? do my wheels actually rub?" phase. I did a spirited drive on them and didn't hear or feel anything. Then I got back home and noticed there were grind marks on the inside of the rims, though I couldn't see where they were touching I got out the grinder and attacked the suspects. Note: I do not know how to use a grinder. Then I realised I had dragged my new rims across my concrete driveway before I did this drive. I didn't think I had damage at that time when I briefly looked...... but remembered this occurred after I did all the angle grinding. The grinding on the wheels in some very specific spots. It's not around the whole rim for example, which lines up with dragging it across concrete more than hitting a suspension component for even 1 full rotation. So everything is currently painted and taped up and I need to test it some more to see if it really IS rubbing, but from inside the car it doesn't feel like it is. In other news I attempted to do a before and after comparison of the heads/cam upgrade thing. Dynos lie, everything is in different measurements. Here is the data from the sandown back straight. Car go faster than before. Vroom vroom.
    • Here's my base ignition. +3 correction to redline when shooting water/meth which is always on. Looking at my old ignition table, I should be able to add 1-2 degree's next time I'm on the dyno.  Let me know your thoughts. 
    • Given what I know now - same haha, but this was 12 years ago with second hand 740cc Nismo injectors in my S15 daily, I was too busy hunting elsewhere for the issue to even look at the injectors, running through some cleaner was a happy coincidence haha
    • Not a terrible idea. But if I ever had concerns that my injectors were sufficiently dirty to be causing me a problem, they would be out of the engine and onto the actual injector cleaner/testing bench.
