Got hit by two dozey drivers inside one hour in the Stagea on Monday...No structural damage but plenty of $$$$s worth (tailgate, rear bumper skin etc). First a woman decided to take off while looking out her drivers window and went straight up the back of it; she just assumed as the road was clear to the right we'd have gone... Then on the way out to Bocchinos for a quote on that, I stopped for a second in/across the driveway of some business, a bloke walked out, looked straight at me, then got in, looked out the passenger side and reversed straight back into the rear quarter of the Stag. He thought I would have gone by then...

What the hell am I missing, the level of driving ability here is monumentally shithouse. Seriously...go forward; look forward! Go back, look behind you! Not go forward and look far away to your right, go back and look down the road to your left!?!

Got a wire wheel wielding wench to clean up all the rust in the boot too and chucked a few coats of primer on it to keep it rust free.

Thanks to everyone who helped out!

Any reason why your pulling the head off and changing the head gasket??

yeah unless you're chasing a million billion KW I wouldn't bother.

I mean look at Jack's R33,

Stock unopened motor, big turbo, few other things, 350kw.

    • Yep, the closest base tune available was for the GTT, I went with that and made all the logical changes I could find to convert it to Naturally Aspirated. It will rev fine in Neutral to redline but it will be cutting nearly 50% fuel the whole way.  If I let it tune the fuel map to start with that much less fuel it wont run right and has a hard time applying corrections.  These 50% cuts are with a fuel map already about half of what the GTT tune had.  I was having a whole lot of bogging when applying any throttle but seem to have fixed that for no load situations with very aggressive transient throttle settings. I made the corrections to my injectors with data I found for them online, FBCJC100 flowing 306cc.  I'll have to look to see if I can find the Cam section. I have the Bosch 4.9 from Haltech. My manifold pressure when watching it live is always in -5.9 psi/inHg
    • Hi My Tokico BM50 Brake master cylinder has a leak from the hole between the two outlets (M10x1) for brake pipes, I have attached a photo. Can anyone tell me what that hole is and what has failed to allow brake fluid to escape from it, I have looked on line and asked questions on UK forums but can not find the answer, if anyone can enlighten me I would be most grateful.
    • It will be a software setting. I don't believe many on here ever used AEM. And they're now a discontinued product,that's really hard to find any easy answers on. If it were Link or Haltech, someone would be able to just send you a ECU file though.
    • Yes sir am asking is there possible way from aem tuner from wiring pins 
    • Have you checked cam to crank timing and confirmed balancer marks are correct?
