Hi I'm Shortyesquire, and I have a children problem.

My boys are 8 and 6. They take up all my time. I think they can sense that I would rather be in my R35 than at swimming lessons and nippers.

The other day my 8yr old told me he was going wait until I died so he wouldn't have to work. I told him he would be older than me (45) when I died. I couldn't tell him that I was going to spend his inheritence on a Stagea Autech 260rs.

When I look at my phone at dinner time, they think I'm keeping an eye on work. I'm actually looking at GR6 gearbox upgrades and RB34 crate engines. I sometimes wonder what I would get for my kids on the north african slave markets.

I have a 4 year old and a 2 year old. They constantly remind mum that dad's car is faster.

20 years ago I thought killerwasps at wheels was all that mattered. Now, those 4 words "Dad's car is faster/cooler/nicer/fun" is all I live for.

The missus is now eyeing off an Evo 9 wagon. The arms race has begun.

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
