[bubba]

*sigh* ok, I'll save that for the next SAUWA Paintball day

Got the bottom end up to the workshop this arvo, will get up there next on Saturday.

Missed the courier that came to drop off my new radiator

Got confirmation clutch left yesterday

i occasionally roll through bertram.. keep seeing some house with a 4 door black 32, and ive seen a silver 32 coupe out front too

oo nice when will it be ready?

[turboedsloth]

Not for ages i don't think. Hopefully end of the year. It's an on going project thats been 2yrs so far. Slowly buying engine parts and suspension goodies atm. Nissan Japan just finished remaking my door seals which took 3 months to get

[Boss-zilla]

wow, have you seen chris r rebuild in the project section? Now that is commitment to the enth dagree. Id love to do another R32 but time/space and money are aginst me for now, maybe one day.

[turboedsloth]

Yeah i keep an eye on that build, mine is in pretty good condition which i'm kinda lucky about and since i've had it, it's always been garaged.

[bubba]

Nice colour Corey!

Pulled the turbo off the wagon yesterday arvo.. looks like a pretty big highflow (it's unknown and came with the car), there's only a couple of mm of snout left.. keen to see how it goes on the 3L

[Boss-zilla]

nice, i think by the time i get around to another skyline it will be a r34 (had a gtt before).

[turboedsloth]

A 34 would be a nice addition to the garage, especially a 4 door one.

[Boss-zilla]

the only thing i dont like about the 4 doors (this goes for 32/3/4) is the tail lights. If it was easy to put the coupe ones in i would go for it. I understand that Nissan wanted them to be different but they just look like @ss to me.

[bubba]

Got my clutch yesterday

Sent turbo off for inspection and possible rebuild (leaking a bit of oil), on the plus side I may have found who built this unknown highflow!

Handbrake shoes being collected today and hopefully injectors.

Went to wire in my resistor box and new injector +ve's and was left scratching my head over WHY the standard loom is laid out the way it is.. (injs 1,2,3 on main part of loom, injs 4,5,6 on sub loom that bends back on itself) seems rather pointless so I've traced back the injector earths and the common feed all the way back to near where the igniter plugs are. Not running the IACV so can actually piss off the whole front sub-harness.

Going to Jaycar today to grab some more wire and will run all the injectors earths through the new loom I've made and my mate is bringing round a nice sealed plug so that the whole injector loom will be removable.

[Boss-zilla]

never looked into it but is it like that so as not to induce elec noise between those injectors? Would make sence if they were wired in fireing order but not front to back. Hmmm

[bubba]

I think it's purely for spatial reasons, it's pretty cluttered under the standard plenum what with TPS plugs and IACV plugs in the same area. The only thing that is subject to noise is the CAS but that runs in its' own heavily shielded cable.

My way will be a lot neater with the loom hidden under the plenum.

[Boss-zilla]

no question it will be, was just throwing an idea out there.

[bubba]

No worries, 99.995% sure noise won't be an issue

[Grifforelli]

Will it be ready for Rising Sunday bubba?

[bubba]

It might be driving but it definitely won't be tuned.

If it's driving I'll come say hai

[Grifforelli]

I'm already excited for it

Imports and bbq.

2 great things.

Going to ditch the cable ties this weekend hopefully and secure the front lip properly.

On another note. Welding internal gates (I think that's what it's called) is it a bad thing?
