hey guys,

first box is made....in my car....needs some further touching up, but overall, im happy with it. looks good... will make up the radiator panel tonight and chuck it on so you guys can see it.

after looking at the engine bay, a similar box around the washer bottle and fuse box would look good. might look into this if anyones interested.

will be down in newy tomorrow. anyone wanna meet up at bar beach...bit after lunch. someone else post up a time...

prices are confirmed

$50 for radiator panel

$100 for airbox.

will take orders tomorrow or email me at [email protected] with your address and whether you have standard i/c piping or a pipe going over the radiator.

cheers guys

Linton

yeh i was down there....was gonna pull up, but there were no parks...i was already tired so i left for home. next time though...ill probs be down this weekend...will let you's know.

doodz...i (Garage Debris) am making up some aluminium airboxes and radiator panels. same as UAS items although will be alot cheaper and better.... i have a UAS one in my 33 and not happy with it....it does nothing except put a box around the filter.

havent got prices yet either, will sort that out after 1st one is made.

cheers

let me know if you guys are gunna be down at the foreshore this weekend. I might come down for a bit.

You should see my car now Linton, with my newly aquired drift damage the front bar is starting to look as ratty as yours :headbang:

And with the airboxes, there's no real rush.

My mate with the 180 says he still might want one, and I discovered he has a piece of thin checker plate bent around where his box would go, would be perfect for getting the size when you get time.

:P

hahaha, GO DRIFT DAMAGE!!!!!!!!! :P what do you mean as ratty as mine?? hahaha....go rattiness!!! i love it!!!

i got pissed off with the wing late one night/early one morning and ended up cracking it and denting the bootlid... its cemented on there, not coming off. gonna have to be good damage to beat that.

ill let you know if im gonna be there.

also, any questions...im on msn.. [email protected]

cheers

HOLY SHITBALLS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! hahaha, damn ian, thats rough. panel damage is one thing...but once you hit a suspension component....it goes to the next level...

id get my car towed before i ever put the space saver on too. haha, i love it, thats awesome.

Haha....

I drove around for two days like that too!

Luckily its only 5 mins to work though.

Got the rim fixed, and it looks ****ing sweet! I love not having chromies!

Fixed the control arm today too, now I just gotta get a re-alignment, and get out the fiberglass repair kit and she'll be sweet :headspin:

ok guys....ive had a breakthrough....i got the airbox out of my car...things are all go. getting aluminium on thursday...gonna drill into em and get heaps done. got some guys that have defects to clear so they will be first in line...jeez im a nice guy.

looking at around $100 for the boxes.... will also be further modifying these down the line...which will equal a price rise, but more on that later.

not sure if a 33 box will fit in a 32...but we'll have a look.

cheers

Linton

any chance of pics?

i was going to make one for my pod when it arrives from japan, but if i become very lazy i might just buy one off you :D

does it provide a good seal? how are the bends in the aluminum and how are pieces joined together?

pics would probably explain all these questions anyway.

the aluminium is bent in a metal bender... it provides a near complete seal... box and lid are joined by allen head bolts... im currently setting up a website, so no pics yet.

give me your email and ill send you some pics.

cheers

    • When I said "wiring diagram", I meant the car's wiring diagram. You need to understand how and when 12V appears on certain wires/terminals, when 0V is allowed to appear on certain wires/terminals (which is the difference between supply side switching, and earth side switching), for the way that the car is supposed to work without the immobiliser. Then you start looking for those voltages in the appropriate places at the appropriate times (ie, relay terminals, ECU terminals, fuel pump terminals, at different ignition switch positions, and at times such as "immediately after switching to ON" and "say, 5-10s after switching to ON". You will find that you are not getting what you need when and where you need it, and because you understand what you need and when, from working through the wiring diagram, you can then likely work out why you're not getting it. And that will lead you to the mess that has been made of the associated wires around the immobiliser. But seriously, there is no way that we will be able to find or lead you to the fault from here. You will have to do it at the car, because it will be something f**ked up, and there are a near infinite number of ways for it to be f**ked up. The wiring diagram will give you wire colours and pin numbers and so you can do continuity testing and voltage/time probing and start to work out what is right and what is wrong. I can only close my eyes and imagine a rat's nest of wiring under the dash. You can actually see and touch it.
    • So I found this: https://www.efihardware.com/temperature-sensor-voltage-calculator I didn't know what the pullup resistor is. So I thought if I used my table of known values I could estimate it by putting a value into the pullup resistor, and this should line up with the voltages I had measured. Eventually I got this table out of it by using 210ohms as the pullup resistor. 180C 0.232V - Predicted 175C 0.254V - Predicted 170C 0.278V - Predicted 165C 0.305V - Predicted 160C 0.336V - Predicted 155C 0.369V - Predicted 150C 0.407V - Predicted 145C 0.448V - Predicted 140C 0.494V - Predicted 135C 0.545V - Predicted 130C 0.603V - Predicted 125C 0.668V - Predicted 120C 0.740V - Predicted 115C 0.817V - Predicted 110C 0.914V - Predicted 105C 1.023V - Predicted 100C 1.15V 90C 1.42V - Predicted 85C 1.59V 80C 1.74V 75C 1.94V 70C 2.10V 65C 2.33V 60C 2.56V 58C 2.68V 57C 2.70V 56C 2.74V 55C 2.78V 54C 2.80V 50C 2.98V 49C 3.06V 47C 3.18V 45C 3.23V 43C 3.36V 40C 3.51V 37C 3.67V 35C 3.75V 30C 4.00V As before, the formula in HPTuners is here: https://www.hptuners.com/documentation/files/VCM-Scanner/Content/vcm_scanner/defining_a_transform.htm?Highlight=defining a transform Specifically: In my case I used 50C and 150C, given the sensor is supposedly for that. Input 1 = 2.98V Output 1 = 50C Input 2 = 0.407V Output 2 = 150C (0.407-2.98) / (150-50) -2.573/100 = -0.02573 2.98/-0.02573 + 47.045 = 50 So the corresponding formula should be: (Input / -0.02573) + 47.045 = Output.   If someone can confirm my math it'd be great. Supposedly you can pick any two pairs of the data to make this formula.
    • Well this shows me the fuel pump relay is inside the base of the drivers A Pillar, and goes into the main power wire, and it connects to the ignition. The alarm is.... in the base of the drivers A Pillar. The issue is that I'm not getting 12v to the pump at ignition which tells me that relay isn't being triggered. AVS told me the immobiliser should be open until the ignition is active. So once ignition is active, the immobiliser relay should be telling that fuel pump relay to close which completes the circuit. But I'm not getting voltage at the relay in the rear triggered by the ECU, which leaves me back at the same assumption that that relay was never connected into the immobiliser. This is what I'm trying to verify, that my assumption is the most likely scenario and I'll go back to the alarm tech yet again that he needs to fix his work.      Here is the alarms wiring diagram, so my assumption is IM3A, IM3B, or both, aren't connected or improper. But this is all sealed up, with black wiring, and loomed
