mohsen : professors look good on just about anything.

don't get cheap wheels, you're only cheating yourself. If you can't afford decent ones, keep the stockies on

car is officially EPA cleared as of 11am today! Thank f**k.

All he did was open the bonnet, see that there were red injectors in there. Took a photo of the injectors, engine bay, front and rear of car and asked for $38 retest fee -___-

Should have just painted my ones red instead of swapping. Least we know the extent of checking. No injector duty cycle measurement etc

Car is bog stock now ;)

So you passed emissions but had to change your injectors anyway?

yup lol

I went in with nistune and a fuelmap which made the larger injectors pass emissions. Although he didnt like the colour of the purple injectors and said they had to be red ~_~

That just seems so... retarded...

The whole point is emissions... if you meet them what does it matter.. stupid victoria

haha yeah. In the EPA guidelines, larger injectors are illegal regardless if you can make them meet emission test at idle. The other option is to engineer the injectors but would need to involve a full ADR emission test which costs $1600 for the test. (this would involve emissions beyond a simple idle test like the EPA inspections do.)

Not worth the trouble, easier to just swap them over.

seriously though

rotas..

also, loving my super glue repair job. looks like its untouched

some flamin mongrel almost hit me last night..

was on kingsway, at the edgars road intersection.

light goes green, i go straight (my way the whole way) and then some stupid flamin mongrel in a VE commo comes out of nowhere on my right and almost hits me...

what do you do to remove the speed limiter? is it just removing a fuse or something or is it built in the ecu? just curious for when i get into some trackdays in the future.

edit: on second thoughts by then ill have an aftermarket ecu anyway so it doesnt matter.

    • Small update, it's been slow moving over the Christmas period with money having to go everywhere thats not my car 😅. I got myself a little present to myself from "santa" in the form of some tidy radiator mounts from fitmint automotive to get rid of the stock ones that look like they have been in an accident before and then straightened by a caveman. I know I should've replaced the rubber bush at the same time but I had no idea how bad they were until I was replacing the mounts. Decided to order their dash mat while I was at it as I feel like I am lucky enough to have a pretty decent condition dash and I don't want to risk it being ruined while it's parked in the aussie sun while I'm at work. I have found another electrical fault to add to the evergrowing list to eventually chase down. Every time I replace my taillight globe it blows within a day of use, I'm starting to think my life would be easier if I took a few minutes to learn how to use  a multimeter 😂.   Had some luck with finding a series 2 drivers headlight on marketplace to replace my mismatched series 1 headlight, a subtle difference but it's nice to have a matching set of lights now.   I returned to the air con problem due to being sick of this summer heat, found a good condition condenser to replace my leaking one! I got it in the car and was happy when I got the thumbs up that the system was now holding gas. Sadly the compressor is not kicking in for some reason, we even tried branching the relay in the fuse box. I have tried to do some research on the issue with no clear understanding of what the fix is, so for now it will be placed on the backburner until I can be bothered to look into the wiring to the compressor. The last small mods I have done was cutting the horizontal vents out of the front bar, not really in a functional airflow sense but I just think it looks better as I am not a fan of the series 2 bar. I also switched the shift knob out for a hosoboyo aluminium grex style one, it has a really nice more direct driving feel than the outdated rubbery oem one. Thirdly, I chucked on one of the ebay bonnet strut kits. The fitment is decent and they seem to work fairly well. They have only given out once while the car was parked facing downhill, I think if I was working under the bonnet I would still put the oem hood stay up to be precautionary as to avoid getting a speedy concussion.
    • Got pneumonia, haven’t played with her in a while, but I’m back now. Previous owners cut bonnet pins into the bonnet. My choice try find a replacement or spend $15 get some pins myself to cover up. Now only one small hole to cover. looks shit now, but when the bonnet is red again. Be good 🤞
    • No R32 GTSt had 15" wheels. 205/55-16 was standard GTSt fare. 4.36:1 is standard R32 turbo auto diff. I think the manual was too, not 4.11. 4.11 and 4.08 were R33 namual and auto respectively.
    • Well found out it’s a 60th anniversary gtst from that it came with 205-55r15
