just to clear up a few things!!!

Guest two.06l

The engine in TWO.06L was built by myself (Paul...DIRTgarage) after a workshop in Newcastle who i will not name, overboosted it while fitting an APEXi AVC-R. Thus destroying no.6 piston's ring lands. A unamed workshop in another part of Newcastle is apparently taking credit for the build. I dont know how this could be as they do not work on their own engines but send them down to Sydney for the work to be done for them. The only work this workshop done was on the previous engine, fitting a set of cam gears and dialing them in with incorrect spec's (not where i had requested them to be set) resulting in a 50hp loss in the top of the rev. range. If you can't build your own engines **** don't take credit for someone elses work!!!

Well I can tell you someone eather has there wire's crossed or there full of sh1t! He has never said anything like that to me and we speak all the time on the subject of performance cars in newcastle and aus for that matter. He has nothing to gain from speaking such BULLSH1T. He has His own car to take credit for. But he doesnt even speak about it. Let alone your car. Dont beleive it. And please dont go calling people BOZO'S, When You say He only apparently said it. Cheers

Just thought we'd nip it in the bud to stop all the sh1t talk circulating. We know what was said.........enough said!!!!

    • 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!
