Don't 25s have some factory oil cooler setup ? Maybe there is a sender in there for the ecu ?

yeah i thought that but there isnt any plugs left, and believe me ive checked, many many times because the oil pressure wire would never reach the oil temp sensor, thats how i broke the wire connection off the sensor.

[lilcrash]

And now my temp gauge thinks it's a dogs tail. It's bouncing all over the place. I wiggled the wires and it settled down but I'm not sure if it will come back

[Rolls]

Wiggled? How are they joined, properly crimped etc? Could be a crack solder joint, or if you've just tape and twisted it then yeah.

[lilcrash]

It's the stock wiring harness/sensor. I might have bumped it when I was pulling it all apart on the weekend.

[pipster11]

check for a loose ground wire for the temp sensor

my stagea has an extra sensor on the oil cooler/heat exchanger, no wires going to it at all, just a single pin sensor sticking out

[lilcrash]

Yeah. That's the one. Kinda random. I'm going to make an adapter and use it for an oil temp guage.

Ok so no more leaks, my pcv grommet should be here today and I even got my tyre fixed so no more weekly tyre inflating. . 840km in and it all looking good.

I have noticed over the past few days that my car draws a lot of unwanted bogan attention.The latest 2, 1. sitting at the lights and get a kid yell out "do a drift". WTF!!! 2. Sitting at the lights, commodore pulls up beside me, I'm talking to my wife, he pulls some weird faces and does the usual I'm gonna flog this ricer spiel to his passengers, gives a few big revs and sits there waiting for the lights to change. Light goes green, he roars off an I just putter off as I'm in no rush and my pregnant wife is in the car (my car tends to hurt her) I change lanes to turn corner and he just keeps roaring off .

^^^^ I get it all the time. Even had an L plater in a V6 commodore. As if i'm going to lose my licence to beat a stock commodore.

I think it's funny, do they really think its worth me watering my fuel just to make them look stupid. If fuel wast $1.68 a litre it wouldn't be so bad.

[BOOZTJUNKEY]

What price would make it worthwhile to start "watering" you fuel?

[lilcrash]

Lmao. "wasting". I didn't even notice.

[lilcrash]

Is anyone else using an Apexi pod filter?

[wolverine]

yes

[lilcrash]

Can you describe the sound it makes, mine sounds crunchy and weird

[75coupe]

Your induction noise sounds crunchy or you pod filter sounds crunchy?

Both of them feel weird to write

[lilcrash]

The induction noise. It's hard to describe.
