Morning all.

After a Fab shop up Syd way. Well, more like Penrith but I don't mind driving to discuss or even towing the race car down and going over a few things.

Things like catch can, some piping redirection and front half of exhausts

Who have you guys used and would recommend? Can do most stuff myself, have essentially built the car but welding isnt really my stronger points and would rather a decent job that does fail on me down the track

Thanks. Pete

I'll put my hand up and say I can help you with what your after.

Have a look at my fabrication thread just a couple of threads under this one for some examples of my work.

Located in Campbeltown so not too far from penrith, specializing in race fabrication.

Pro fabrication

Check out Speedfab.com.au Backyarder owns it,he worked wonders for Gasmotorsport as their fabricator.The best fab work ive seen ,and im an aircraft engineer,so ive seen a bit.

Hi again,

I'm a bit confused.. I pm'd you regarding work on my car & you gave me some useful info but is Speedfab your business or should I be contacting someone else? Or is this some backyard job?!

    • It is an absolute lottery. They can and have died at stock boost with low usage at all. The turbos are now anywhere up to 36 years old!
    • Huh, wonder why it blew then. I never really beat on the car THAT hard lol I dailyed it and the turbo blew after 6 months
    • That's odd, it works fine here. Try loading it on a different device or browser? It's Jack Phillips JDM, a Skyline wrecker in Victoria. Not the cheapest, but I have found them helpful to find obscure parts in AU. https://jpjdm.com/shop/index.php
    • Yeah. I second all of the above. The only way to see that sort of voltage is if something is generating it as a side effect of being f**ked up. The other thing you could do would be to put a load onto that 30V terminal, something like a brakelamp globe. See if it pulls the voltage away comepletely or if some or all of it stays there while loaded. Will give you something of an idea about how much danger it could cause.
    • I would say, you've got one hell of an underlying issue there. You're saying, coils were fully unplugged, and the fuse to that circuit was unplugged, and you measured 30v? Either something is giving you some WILD EMI, and that's an induced voltage, OR something is managing to backfeed, AND that something has problems. It could be something like the ECU if it takes power from there, and also gets power from another source IF there's an internal issue in the ECU. The way to check would be pull that fuse, unplug the coils, and then probe the ECU pins. However it could be something else doing it. Additionally, if it is something wired in, and that something is pulsing, IE a PWM circuit and it's an inductive load and doesnt have proper flyback protection, that would also do it. A possibility would be if you have something like a PWM fuel pump, it might be giving flyback voltages (dangerous to stuff!). I'd put the circuit back into its "broken" state, confirm the weird voltage is back, and then one by one unplug devices until that voltage disappears. That's a quick way to find an associated device. Otherwise I'd need to look at the wiring diagrams, and then understand any electrical mods done.   But you really should not be seeing the above issue, and really, it's indicating something is failing, and possibly why the fuse blew to begin with.
