:thumbsup: to Kudos Motorsports.

Orderd a new Brake Master Cylinder last night. Received prior to lunchtime today. F#cking awesome.

I called Andrew at Kudos yesterday lunchtime and asked if he had one and if so to get it to me quickly. He rang me back in 5 and said yep got one and as soon as you cut an order I'll post o'night express. Expect Tuesday if you order at night.

So orderd last night and it was waiting for me when I got home :D

Cars going in this afternoon to get another pressure test.

Wish me luck!

The coolant just keeps disappearing and I cant find out where the hell its going.

Engine stays cool all day every day.

Still hearing the gurgling behind the dash even after trying the things the mechanic told me to.

Fingers crossed its a loose hose!

Checked for both of those thanks guys.

Had a long inspection in and around the floor and under the car.

Did a few short and long trips and checked for puddles after.

Nothing and no signs under the car of anything going wrong.

Car feels really weird to drive cold. (I am probably just paranoid as I have only ever driven an auto 323 lol)

Dont know if thats just normal as its cold.

By weird I mean changing gears isnt smooth as it kind of slugs into each gear.

idles around 1100 then drops to around 900

I dont know hey will just have to see what they say when it comes back.

Dropped it at Ultra Tune Fyshwick as they could get it in for a test today for $50

Lol sounds like it would have been an epic stack.

I'm 24 and my right knee is destroyed from my many rollerblading fails.

I guess us young guys aren't as bulletproof as we'd like to think hey haha

Guessing we need to drink more milk!

I got the car back just before.

Turns out there is a leak from the actual radiator

+ behind the engine right up against the firewall some small tap thing that is extremely hard to get to

They suggested getting the radiator reconditioned

But I think I might just purchase a 2nd hand one or even a brand new one.

haha yeah was pretty f**king funny....wasn't even getting big air though lol. I had my helmet cam ripped off its mount and buried in the snow......it wasn't filming at the timestupid.gif

We estimated the ditch my head dug into the snow (relatively untouched, definitely NOT powdery haha) was about 50cm long and 30cm deep. When I was able to get up and hobble the 50m to the next T-bar, I decided I'd lay on the snow for a while to not further strain whatever I'd just done to my back....lay there for about 30mins before I could stand up confused.gif

Guessing we need to drink more milk!

I drink about 1L per day hahahaha....I don't think I have a calcium deficiency :P

    • Here is the mess that I made. That filler there was successful in filling dents in that area. But in the middle area. I can feel dents. And I've gone ocer it multiple times with filler. And the filler is no longer there because i accidently sanded it away. I've chased my tail on this job but this is something else lol. So I'm gonna attempt filler one more time and if it doesn't work I'll just high fill primer the door and see where the issues are because guidecoat is of no use atm.
    • Ok, so I think I sort of figured out where I went wrong. So I definitely overthinked it, and I over sanded, which is probably a large part of the problem. to fix it, I ended up tapping some spots that were likely to be high, made them low, filled them in, and I tackled small sections at a time, and it feels a lot better.    I think what confused me as well is you have the bare metal, and some spots darker and some are lighter, and when I run my finger across it, it' would feel like it's a low spot, but I think it's just a transition in different texture from metal to body filler.    When your finger's sliding on the body filler, and crosses over to the bare metal, going back and forth, it feels like it's a low spot. So I kept putting filler there and sanding, but I think it was just a transition in texture, nothing to do with the low or high spot. But the panel's feels a lot better, and I'm just going to end up priming it, and then I'll block it after with guide coat.   Ended up wasting just about all of my filler on this damn door lol  
    • -10 is plenty for running to an oil cooler. When you look at oil feeds, like power steering feeds, they're much smaller, and then just a larger hose size to move volume in less pressure. No need for -12. Even on the race cars, like Duncans, and endurance cars, most of them are all running -10 and everything works perfectly fine, temps are under control, and there's no restrictions.
    • Update: O2 sensor in my downpipe turned out to be faulty when I plugged in to the Haltech software. Was getting a "open circuit" warning. Tons of carbon buildup on it, probably from when I was running rich for a while before getting it corrected. Replaced with new unit and test drove again. The shuffle still happens, albeit far less now. I am not able to replicate it as reliably and it no longer happens at the same RPM levels as before. The only time I was able to hear it was in 5th going uphill and another time in 5th where there was no noticeable incline but applying more throttle first sped it up and then cleared it. Then once in 4th when I slightly lifted the throttle going over a bump but cleared right after. My understanding is that with the O2 sensor out, the ECU relies entirely on the MAP tune and isn't able to make its small adjustments based on the sensors reading. All in all, a big improvement, though not the silver bullet. Will try validating the actuators are set up correctly, and potentially setting up shop time to tune the boost controller on closed loop rather than the open loop it is set to now. Think if it's set up on closed loop to take the O2 reading, that should deal with these last bits. Will try to update again as I go. 
    • More so GReddy oil relocation kits, sandwich plates, etc. all use 10AN fittings. And same, I've only used 10AN and my car sees track work (circuit, doing laps, not 10 sec squirt business).
