lol yeah.. seeing at night isn't its' best attribute.. here's some more night stuff!

It has an exhaust now but probably needs a centre muffler.. I swear it's louder than with just the dump/front pipe!

Had a hiccup with the ECU which was causing it to be ridiculously rich, fouled the plugs pretty quickly. Got my mate around to fix it while we were doing the exhaust, loaded up the laptop to make a couple of changes then she fired straight up and immediately sounded MUCH healthier. Still got intermittent lifter noise, I'm hoping it disappears. Got a slow water leak somewhere, will get it up on the hoist on Tuesday to check everything out.

Just drove from Padbury to Balcatta, to Ashfield, to Hazelmere and back to Ashfield and each leg it felt better and better. To the point where on the last couple of legs I let it hit a bit of boost (2.8psi lol) and it was such a tease driving home in the rain!

It felt so good to finally drive the old girl again! BIG thanks to chuckie and a select few others for their help through this trying time :P:cheers::banana:

FLAME-AGE i want to c FLAME-AGE

This is OLD flamage..

When I get the old girl running a bit better (turbo is MUCH bigger than it was so very wary bringing it on boost until I can log the wideband in nistune) I'll get some new flame footage.. I certainly do love a rich decel :D

Tried to negotiate a friends driveway.

Snapped my front bar clean off :(

And then my number plate fell off too because it snapped out one of the mounting nuts

Bugger, but you are now have the fully hectik drifter 'look'.

But really that sucks.

Oh hey.

Any of you lovely 32 owners have a spare gtst or gts stock ecu?

Need one to be able to be able to get some fault codes to diagnose without expensive dyno time.

Been getting high knocks fairly low down in the rpm range and it's really sporadic, jumping from 60 to well over 100 at times with no audible noise backing up the knock claim.

A retarding of the timings resulted in no change whatsoever, that's taking 4 to 5 degrees of timing out when the boost gets to full.

The logic behind this is to find out if the knock sensor is faulty.

If that is the case, I'm definitely going to book more dyno tuning time because the only reason we didn't get it above 280rwhp last time is because of the knock count :rolleyes:

So, anyone?

Could buy it off you, or just borrow. Would only need it for a week or a fortnight max.

Just think of it as a blessing to the world... Like a ugly person committing suicide haha

Im starting to see it as a blessing because now if I crash it at Collie I won't be so disappointed if it gets destroyed.

How much did you pay for your gtr front bar Simon?

    • I vote go red. Only because I hate keeping gloss black clean. Was no worries helping out either! Glad you've survived the rain outs of QLD
    • I would again like too thank Matt for his help in me sourcing the detachable hard top for the little red car, without Matt's assistance in inspecting it and locking it down, I can guarantee it would have sold before I could get up to see it,  and as that was the only available NC hardtop in Australia, I consider myself extremely lucky on multiple levels To say I'm more that happy would be an understatement And, it is 100% water tight, I drove through torrential rain coming back south, and by torrential, they type of rain that doing 40kph in a 110kph zone was a real thing, and even then, the standing water on the Hwy was deep enough to throw waves I'm also more than happy that the huge "BEASTS" that Matt calls dogs didn't eat me for lunch, I'm sure the sniffs and licks were more to "taste test" me, over being to friendly Now to work out what colour to get it painted, panel match, or gloss black........first world problems are real
    • Actually I might have figured out. Looks like there is a tab according to google images but it's hidden. Silly me.
    • No clips on this one like the other connector. Only that red tab that I can push slightly up.
    • For any loom connector that has an obvious release that resists pushing far enough to unclip, just spray some silicone lube into it. You might also benefit from using a bent screwdriver or small pick to push in the right place at the right angle.
