howdy all, im back from Canberra!

We are hopefully going to arganise a group of club members to head to a downshift one day and try to recruit some more members who don't seem like di*k heads.

keen for this as i still have not been to one.

Finally got my kit painted and fitted over the last week, not the flushest of fits but i guess thats what you get with EBay Kits. Also one of current interior [golf shoes are apart of the "look'

]. Needs some new seats

Mechanic, Was going to send it to Dan to do as he had the right price and I dig his work.

Now that Dan isn't around I am not sure where I want to go with it.

Yes the ERD thing is unfortunate, but you can do it yourself. Just hog the garage for a few days, and doit! Mine took the better part of 2 days. but i did take my time and did lots of interneting and reading beforehand.

just need a few choice tools :)

I am always stuck at work at the moment so I couldn't spare 2 days even if I wanted to.

I need to find a garage that has a lot of experience doing the work and has a reputation for quality work at a fair price.

After much debate, I will be putting more power into the car, It will get it's 100K service a full service and some tuning done, I will then look at what options I wish to use: IE different turbo, head gasket upgrade, Water Meth, Haltech.

good choice!!

where you taking it? and when are you coming out for a drive?

I am taking it over to All Star tuning and performance in Brendale, I had a good chat with Richard and a few club members and they have highly recommended them.

I am going for a 100k service, a full vehicle check and regular service and a retune at this point, The price that I have been quoted is excellent (we get club discount)

I don't know when I will be out for a drive as I still have it up for sale but I am not actively trying to sell it, I am considering getting a 4x4 as owning a car like ours is proving to be a hassle with all the young dickheads buying them now and doing skids / racing in them.

    • I have one and it was at ~43.5PSI.
    • Put a pressure gauge on the fuel rail.

    • I'm running a Haltech Platinum Pro with the stock map for the RB20DET + tweaks for my build. When I started it this morning, the IAT was at 32F/0C (Outside temp was ~42F) and the AFRs went off the scale for my AEM gauge. I let it run for ~30 seconds then turned it off. I then did a smoke test, by hooking into a vacuum line directly behind the throttle body, and confirmed there was no leaks ( i let the smoke tester run for ~5 minutes / confirmed it was generating smoke before hand ). I then started the car again, after fixing a power steering leak.... and it seemed to be happy for ~30 seconds (was at ~11/12), but then seemingly shot back up to ~18 again. I then let the car run for a few minutes, thinking this was just cold start related, but the AFRs never came back down. I didn't let the car fully warm up, so maybe this makes sense, but I'm not sure what to do? The AFRs, when I last ran it, were normal, but because of personal reasons I haven't been able to break in the car. It was rebuilt last year.
