OK so are there any takers for a in-house job? Probably not looking at this Sunday but more so the following Sunday 28/08/2005.

Free for all is 1 case of beer.... Bonus case to the owner of the premises (if they want to share, then they're very welcome to) - I personally don't drink at all, but it's fun watching a bunch of guys get drunk ;)

i take it that's one case each??

The whole point of this exercise is to save some $$$... Depending on the number of spectators there, there should be enough beer going around to make it good.

The o2 sensor thing is just a guess... I'm getting about 350km MAX out of a full tank of fuel at the moment.

There are some mixed emotions about what the cause is, some say it's the o2 sensor, others say its normal.

I guess it can't hurt... but if someone could bring a diagnostic cable to see - that would be cool (saves about $90 on the sensor)

Any takers on the offer yet?

If you do goto powerplay go when there is no traffic.. like no peak hour, as its bloody hard finding parking there :P.

Stan, I prolly wont be able to come Sunday, depends on my roster at work.

But we still ok for the dyno the day before?

I also have a consult cable and laptop (but battery is dead), so if you have a laptop with serial cable we can hook it up at the dyno.

Yeah we are good to go on the Dyno Day... I will bring my laptop as well. Although, I'm not too sure about the serial cable - could you please post a photo of it (I'm assuming it's the plug)?

And the Sunday as a prefferred meeting date I can't change... I work all 6 other days (I'll be taking next Sat off just for you :P)

We work too hard dammit.... 5:30pm on a Friday and I'm still working FARKIN!

EDIT:

Going home now and out for the night.... seriously guys, give it a think about allowing a bunch of guys over to do stuff to my car. Not to mention the state some of them will be in by the end of it. :P

I'll most probably be back on tomororw - hope to see some interest then! :lol:

my dads apartment has a massive garage and a few really long dead end streets nearby that we could shut off for a day :( (new development ya see)

Does your laptop have a serial port? (COM1 or COM2)? Because you need it!

I'm in... everyone else who is interested in either coming to help out or "spectate" or "entertain" please place your interest here now! :D

That's two birds with the one stone; a personal pit loaction and a private testing facility LOL No nothing "illegal"... not the SAU way I belive :D

Well I'm gonna be in for sure... got my oil from Powerplay Imports today courtesy of SW20-GT - Elf Oil as suggested :)

    • Hi, i’m making a rb25det coil loom for Vag short coil. Can anybody tell me which Ecu signal wire belong to coil number 1 and 2,3,4,5,6? The connecting switch in above pic is 8 wire i think white is for +12v and black for earth.
    • Was there ever a model of the Stagea m35 that didnt have a badge on the grill? I thought I saw that somewhere, some aero edition or something? I cant find it again? davemoto
    • Its a 2002 vr-x four VQ25DET, silver. Coil overs, lowered, polished alloys and sport exhaust. Bit of a project, was sitting in a shed for a while but runs and drives great.
    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
