Replaced faulty Z32 AFm and made 252.5awkw @ 16psi today. Very happy with the results. Tuner was happy to go to 18psi to see what power we'd make, but I needed the car, and was happy with breaking 250 anyway.

:thumbsup:

And chopping out of the middle bit?

Yeah, that's the plan; there seems to be plenty of stiffness in the lower lip, that it won't require the centre bar.

I just have to find some mesh that doesn't look cheap & tacky. I'm thinking some stainless woven mesh.

Good to hear your up and running again bud, maybe next cruise you'll make it the whole way

Yeah, bailed because my air/fuel ratios were not very friendly. Got her tuned today and its more than sorted. Very happy with the outcome. Next cruise for sure I'll have no excuses :thumbsup:

Installed wideband controller & extended display behind custom perspex face in vent. Logs heaps of stuff, including G-forces. Could be interesting to do before & after swaybar install.

That's a pretty neat setup! Dunc has his Informeter there, been thinking about it...

I got my rear toe arms today, shiny blue, looks the goods! Unfortunately Australia Post couldn't come through and I have to wait till next week for sway bars :(

Ordered catch can and new brake pads, should be here Monday too. Ended up just ordering QFM HPX, for the price figured if everyone was happy with them I'd give them a go! GSL Rallysport were very easy to deal with.

new rims are on. BBS LM reps, 19x9.5 +20 front, +5 rear. flush as you like. lowered another inch and wheel alignment on saturday. in love with the car all over again. pics soon!

Picked up a stereo finally. Clarion vx400a was on clearance at Autobarn.

New number plates too, square rear plates suit it so much better, just a shame transport sa cant put the wholes in the right place!

Wheres the pics of your exhaust? Have you quietened it up yet? :P

Let me know how you go with the headunit; looks good - I just have to work out what to do with my gauges!

Andrew is supposed to be emailing them to me, have to call him. He's building me a rear muffler to sort the epic noise issue. Gf is sick of it and I'm loosing my hearing!

You can keep your gauges if you go fold out single din, and rout the screen output to that screen you've already got. I'll be able to use the remote so I won't need to flip the screen out.

Looks like Brad has some work to do! :thumbsup:

wow that deck is nice!

im very surprised they are selling head units with optical drives still. i think JVC have a head unit with USB inputs and ipod support and no optical drive.

Thats what i thought, especiallu for the price. Got it for just under $500 because it was clearance. Half the cost of other decks I was looking at.

I really didn't want to go without an optical drive. I have a huge CD and DVD collection, and while I have all my CDs on my iPod, I don't fancy ripping all my DVDs. But if I didn't want a DVD player it looks like a good option. The Sony with the storage draw is cool.

    • Please do not connect it to your manifold. If you do, as GTS suggested please record the lot in 4K with good mics attached.   On the factory Skyline, there's a upside down pipe that allows it to breathe, looks like this   
    • For me I'd need some serious justification for why it has blown out.  Have you questioned him on it?  To be honest if you didn't question him right from the get-go on the first invoice that was already way over the initial quote and then you've (presumably) then paid another $1375 on top of the first invoice, then you're pushing shit uphill to get a favourable result now... It was years ago I last got an engineer out but it was around $450-$550 per visit.  That was just to inspect each progress point he gave me for the project.  Is he just doing progress inspections or is he providing engineering diagrams, technical assistance, etc??  If he's not, he's a filthy rip off merchant.  If the $3100 is the final sign off then you need to cop it on the chin, pay it and move on.  If it's not, piss him off and get a new one.  Not many Jeeps I'd value at $10K full stop let alone just engineering fees on a written off, half actual value WOVR Jeep....
    • Oh, yes. If you connected it to the manifold your first drive would be very eventful. Very shit. Very interesting. Perhaps take a video if you feel the need to see. Terminating the breather at the top of the bellhousing is normal/stock. Some gearbox lubes (hello Redline Shockproof) like to foam up a bit and require the breather to be extended up higher, so you don't get spots of smurf jizz staining the floor under your car. Mine is thus right up behind the head. Make sure you fit a u-bend at the top so it points back downward so that dirt and schmutz has a harder time getting into it.
    • Cheers for the replies. So i don't connect it to the manifold I just run the hose high up on the firewall?
    • It doesn't really answer your question...but is the head unit full android or just android auto, are you happy with how quickly it boots and responds, and do you have a link?  If we can identify good Android alternatives it will really help people stuck with Japanese screens. Did it have a separate reverse camera input so you would replace the factory one, or are you just going without now...that would be a pretty big steps back. And finally, do you have a picture of the "wire" that you can't plug in? Most likely it is some sort of aerial that is not too important eg japanese traffic or am radio or something if you haven't noticed a functionality issue
