So, i was sick of the stickers from the dodgy paint so i figured i would pull the stickers off and just put some white vinyl or something over them to look clean from a distance, BUT that didnt exactly go to plan so now i need the bonnet resprayed properly :dry: I was planning on going to a Blits bonnet and getting it painted but i dont have the time now so ill just get the heavy ass steel one done....

Although its a pain in the ass at least the shitty HT sticker is now off! No more laughter from a certain DVS man! :nyaanyaa:

So bonnet is off and it is down with the painter for repairs, he noticed 2 minor dents which ive never seen and also suggested we respray the lip. He is going out of his way to work on it of a night for me which i am really grateful for especially given the Thursday deadline....

GREX oil cooler block with Thermostat has been ordered thanks to the help of Dean for locating it for me!! Will run custom black braided lines and speedflow fittings for the stealth factor :ph34r:

always seems to be some old V8 around, what tyres you using on the rear? would it smoke more if the tyre was soft compound, im trying to figure out how to make the most smoke when i do a burnout at the drags next, smoking out the spectators would be a awesome feat :yes:

Yeah soft tyres should be better for smoke.... They are just 275/35/18 Nexans.... No grip lol

But they would pump smoke of you have good wheel speed and stay stationary, that was peeling smoke while moving at a fair pace.... There is a video coming from a car behind on one of the laps so I'll finally see how much it made lol...

So the night before Powerplay we decided an Oil Cooler should be on the cards so we made one up -

It is sitting nice and high out of harms way but will need some finishing touches like ducting etc, the oil temps are good on the track the way it is so i am pretty happy overall.

    • There's probably an underlying issue with the A/C system too. I recently fixed mine, now it's fully control by the Haltech and car's factory HVAC controller  Have a squiz here:    
    • And by the way, I've also checked the ECU diagnostic numerous times and got a bad O2 sensor code and initially an Ignition Primary code, which is why I replaced the O2 sensor and all the ignition components (coil packa, plug and loom). No codes have been coming up lately despite the ongoing issue.
    • Hey pber13, unfortunately still no luck. At this point the following has been done with little or no success: - Spark plugs replaced, gapped to 0.8mm - Splitfire coilpacks installed to replace originals - Replaced Ignition Coil/Coilpack harness with a new genuine nissan one - New fuel filter - Replaced AFM/MAF sensor - Injectors have been thoroughly cleaned with an online flush (without removing) - Upper engine and inlet decarbed - blew tons of black smoke out, cleared the carbon deposits from the top of the engine and exhaust.  - IACV removed and thoroughly cleaned with carburettor cleaner - O2 sensor replaced with new and genuine one -  Smoke test revealed no vacuum leaks - Healthy compression test of 160psi across all 6 cylinders Overall the car does run a lot smoother now, no backfires between gear shifts like it did originally... but the rough idle when warmed up is still there. It may not even be a misfire but simply a rough idle. Seems crazy to me that so many people have had this issue and seemingly no one has gotten to the bottom of it, or at least never bothered to post if they did! Hope you have more luck than I did pber13, I'm at a point now where I'm just going to try to ignore it unless it gets worse. Would love to fix it but I've genuinely run out of ideas of what it could be.
    • I got the full frenchys kit too. Really awesome kit. Easy to install my only complaint was the hardlines I think could be routed differently (I modified mine) but I realise the kit needs to suit multiple applications. This was the hard lines before I modified them. They were touching the wastegate pipe. I ended up reducing the distance between firewall and first bend. The made it so they tucked along the frame rail.
    • Deeve, I don't suppose that you've made any progress on this? My Stagea has the exact same problem, and just like you, I've read through as much as I can online, with no real progress. My car isn't throwing any codes at all, which is a little frustrating. I've changed plugs, checked the wiring and harness. A new MAF gets here next week, but I'm not hopeful it will solve the issue.
