Hey Robin :huh:

Ye, that thompson, covered a while ago... and has been getting some more press lately as they are going to release more stocks this year.

Also on the mis-fire.

ensure the O2 sensor is turned OFF.

this can also cause it :P

Lack of voltage to the coilpack's under highload can cause this aswell especially in cars that have 15yo wiring :P

Got a new'ish loom from a R33 GTR installed the other day... same issue. Now with standard ECU reving all the way through to 8500+ without any issues except heaps of black smoke - this is something that did not happen with the Power FC even when it was working 100% and I could use all the RPM's.

Oh yeah and me and Scotsman saw you playing bball on a Tuesday night just before Xmas.

When the games start up again, make sure you keep an eye out for us, as we are there every Tuesday night.

Hey Robin, good to hear you're well. Shame we don't see you round anymore. Just becuase you dont own a line doenn't mean you can't come have some beers with us :)

Still got a line... for now anyway until I get the PFC fixed and a few other things done. Will keep an eye out for a good event or meet in the next few weeks and come along. You still have meetings every month in Sth Melb.? My GTR is looking worse for ware at the moment also so I'm shy about bringing it out in public. Still got a nice shiner down the passenger door and rear 1/4 panel. Fixing soon.

Also good to hear from you Adz

andrew its only an r31 fault :no:

You have no idea how many silvias and later model skylines have this issue.

as for the 31 never had to fix an issue like that.

robbin might need to sneak the dwell up on the coil control on the pfc and also replacing the engine loom won't necessarly fix the problem.

i think your pfc has issues. just get the std ecu remapped for the moment and sell it

Got bigger problems now....

Gave it a good fang on Friday night and seem to have droped oil rings on 1 and 3 cos I put new plugs in yestersday and they are already fowled and blowing white smoke through all the gears. Boost is not a problem and have good compression in all but oil on top of 1 and 3 pistons (can see it when looking down into spark hole) so now need professional help (replace PFC and get oil rings replaced... then sell)

Anyway... kicked ass on the fang (Wrx & VR commo) when I droped the rings (it must have been that cos it was running sweet before) straight after... Farked!

    • I find I am using the MX5 for everything except long overnight cruises with Jackie, or, if picking up the kids to go somewhere, the SS has so much more room inside, and is much more comfortable if your going to be doing Hwy driving for 6-8 hours And the MX5 isn't bad in stop go traffic for a manual transmission car, whilst the clutch kit has been upgraded from stock, it is still light, and also not having a stupidly light flywheel in it helps as well, I've spent alot of time sitting on the M5, M4 and M7 stuck in traffic when plodding around the Greater Sydney Region in it Another benefit is MX5's are not really a car that gets stolen, you can pretty much park it anywhere, and it will still be there when you return
    • I can totally get why you like it for that sort of commute. I was thinking BoganDore because it's such a lazy drive, for things like stop start traffic.   I used to do over an hour in stop start shit from one side of Bris to the next, twice a day. My choice of car was larger displacement, with an auto. Basically for torque in low rpm/very low speed, and no clutch pedal. But loved a fun manual for the weekends, which the partner has (plus had the LandCruiser too for other fun drives). I now have an EV as a work car, and I tell ya what, ultimate daily driver, especially if youre out of energy, like I often am after work. I don't even need to touch the brake pedal   That said, I'm presently rebuilding the Liberty GTB to get it setup for weekend drives and track abuse! So small high revving turbo engine with 6 speed cog swapper!   But for your style of commute, I'd probably take the MX5 too!   For those choices, I'm ignoring fuel economy. Because I know how atrocious V8 daily life is for fuel from when I used to daily a manual SS, ha ha. Hence why I know I love the daily rumble of a V8
    • II know what u are saying after 9 years of hibernating my stock engined  110,00km gtt I got it registered 2 weeks ago. Took it for a drive a couple of days ago and some fresh bp fuel, I just couldn’t stop grinning and dreaming of when I will start my build thread. its just such a primal man feeling many forget to enjoy I wish u so much enjoyment with your little racer mate
    • People just don't understand how good MX5's actually are and how fun they are to drive, park, manuever. You feel like you have got some fun cheat code, while everyone else is sitting in their luxobargeSUV like normies who missed the point of living. It really is that noticable. As long as you/your stuff fit, and you're comfortable (they are), a MX5 is the best car on earth to daily around.
    • Before and after, headlight's done along with bumper.
