Rev210,

How many bottles of coke do you have in the passenger seat? I think you should be issued with a special license to own a Skyline, and if you mistreat the car inside/outside/mechanical then your license is revoked.

At present there are about a dozen empty bottles of 'V' and Lift plus, various chip packets and gum wrappers, print samples and brouchures on the floor.

I clean inside car when they reach the passenger knee level.

I clean outside the car when all the windows have been obscured by grime,dead bugs and bird poo.

lalalalalal ... I CAN'T HEAR YOU ..lalalalala

I don't want to hear any more. Your EVIL!

Do you take the rubbish out for the drags? You'd probably gain a second.

Does rubbish fall out of the car as you exit? No don't tell me, I don't want to know.

We'd better stop this conversation before I am physically sick.

At the Drags:

I had over a hundred kilo's of brouchures in the boot. Two printers in the back seat and a box of stuff in the front seat. Suprise suprise I actually cleaned out the floor of rubbish. Rob77 witnessed it and I took pictures with my digital camera on the night.

It's my work vehicle after all.:)

Alright, to get this thread back on topic, I spoke to the guy who runs the ceramic coaters. He was extremely helpful and enthusiastic, which goes a long way, and was keen for me to visit him, not taking the 'line along the track, and see what he can do. Not only can he do coating of the front pipes, dump pipes, exhaust manifold and turbo exhaust housing, but he can also thermally protect head and valves, create thermal barriers etc, on all types of metals.

I will most likely visit him in the next couple of days to get more precise quotes, and once I have them I'll let you know. If there is anything you'd like me to ask then let me know.

His contact details are:

Competition Coatings

0500 899 988 (I know it looks like a bullshit no., but it works)

I am interested in the exhaust side of things. Is it cheaper to treat a average exhaust than get a stainless steel version?

Say a stainless exhuast for a Commodore is say $700 a mid steel would be around $200 less.

Personally I would rather have 3" mid steel coated unit than a stainless one.

    • 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.
