Well got my floor pans stripped and cleaned up and Brodie got it painted Sunday. Cage is in, seats back in and inner lap harness anchor points mounted into the tunnel with plates etc. ISC strut tops on the bilsteins now, more travel better height adjustment. Still bit left but slowly crossing stuff off the to-do-list. Giving lexan rear screen and door screens serious thought. Not a huge amount to be gained but every bit counts. Also Mr Kuc confirmed ID2000's work with PFC's so that's a bonus E85 won't be too far down the track. AFM will be the only real restriction. Can't wait to get back into the snotter and get out to a SAU day

You could get away with ID1000s and bump up the fuel pressure. Thats what I did with mine. Was good for 475rwkw thru the auto. Brad makes well passed 500 with his

yeah to be honest mate thats prob all I'll run. I know a few blokes on the mainland making 390ish on nismo 740's at 3 bar, so 1000's will be more than enough. For me anyway!

I always think i need more power when i havent driven it in months but usually when i get back in it on the twistes or basky i shit my pants with 17psi/320rwkw's hahaha. touch wood the new suspenion setup and improvments allow me to run more and gain something =)

haha and new rear tyres matey. yep, there has been some looptey loops in her, it was manbearpig.

the last thing that i really want before I'm gonna be happy (for awhile anyway) is a good adjustable rear diff. Still, the improvements to the rest of the old girl should make it easier to cope with whats in it.

    • Yeah well per the video it took 15s for the stock unit to start up....even if I give it a few seconds discount for starting that is at least 12 sec before you get a reverse camera if you are trying to leave a park.  The android unit is way faster, but 2016 for the stock unit is a long time ago in consumer electronics
    • Yea that’s why I said ima test them with multimeter and see the reads.
    • Only at idle. Isn’t a problem when rev it seems.
    • @Haggerty This seems silly to ask, but are you confident in your ability to tune the Haltech?  
    • Next on the to-do list was an oil and filter change. Nothing exciting to add here except the oil filter is in a really stupid place (facing the engine mount/subframe/steering rack). GReddy do a relocation kit which puts it towards the gearbox, I would have preferred towards the front but there's obviously a lot more stuff there. Something I'll have to look at for the next service perhaps. First time using Valvoline oil, although I can't see it being any different to most other brands Nice... The oil filter location... At least the subframe wont rust any time soon I picked up a genuine fuel filter, this is part of the fuel pump assembly inside the fuel tank. Access can be found underneath the rear seat, you'll see this triangular cover Remove the 3x plastic 10mm nuts and lift the cover up, pushing the rubber grommet through The yellow fuel line clips push out in opposite directions, remove these completely. The two moulded fuel lines can now pull upwards to disconnect, along with the wire electrical plug. There's 8x 8mm bolts that secure the black retaining ring. The fuel pump assembly is now ready to lift out. Be mindful of the fuel hose on the side, the hose clamp on mine was catching the hose preventing it from lifting up The fuel pump/filter has an upper and lower section held on by 4 pressure clips. These did take a little bit of force, it sounded like the plastic tabs were going to break but they didn't (don't worry!) The lower section helps mount the fuel pump, there's a circular rubber gasket/grommet/seal thing on the bottom where the sock is. Undo the hose clip on the short fuel hose on the side to disconnect it from the 3 way distribution pipe to be able to lift the upper half away. Don't forget to unplug the fuel pump too! There's a few rubber O rings that will need transferring to the new filter housing, I show these in the video at the bottom of this write up. Reassembly is the reverse Here's a photo of the new filter installed, you'll be able to see where the tabs are more clearing against the yellow OEM plastic Once the assembly is re-installed, I turned the engine over a few times to help build up fuel pressure. I did panic when the car stopped turning over but I could hear the fuel pump making a noise. It eventually started and has been fine since. Found my 'lucky' coin underneath the rear seat too The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uLJ65pmQt44&t=6s
