In the last week or so I've also managed to go from, this: Ey2MEoa.jpg

To, this: xrQrspF.jpg

Along the way I also discovered the source of my clonking noise, which turned out to be a completely shagged lower left hand control arm.

Lh/LCA: aIv8yP0.jpg

In the next coupe weeks I'm expecting to have that replaced with a new LCA and then I can start fitting up the rear brakes and my new 4.11 2way cusco Diff ;)

Nick are you trying to work out price for insurance purposes?

personally id be going agreed value minimum of 20k.

its a custom car, "paint work" wheels, suspension, engine conversion, mods to conversion.

gotta think about what it will cost you to replace it.

Last one i know of that got sold went for more than 20k, therefore worth more than 20. Typical pom!

my micra is worth 3k.

so i put a turbo and 2-3 grands worth of work into it and its worth 10?

your talking shit matt.

cars worth 5. engine is worth 2-3. labour... no idea.

f**king 20 grand. have a word with yourself.

    • I would sell those side feeds before you hydra-lock a motor. I won't say too much about Yellow Jackets because I'll hurt people's feelings, however ask those that tune RBs day in/out what they think of them.
    • The 1000ccs are side feeds but they're not currently installed, had my old factory ones in for leak testing purposes, only decided on them because front facing plenums and good top feed rail kits are out of my budget at the moment, are they really that problematic? Had a set of yellow jackets that lasted me 5 years, no real issues, only replaced them chasing this misfire issue that ended up not being ignition related 😄  
    • Are those 1000cc side feeds? If so, that's part of your problem. I have 1480cc and they idle at stoich on 98RON, and all the way to E85. Also your coil packs.....
    • Update for the sake of closure   Ended up getting the intercooler piping all sorted, new plugs and yellow jacket coils, and she was idling mint until it warmed up while I was bleeding the cooling system. Found the misfire to be localised to cyl 3 by unplugging coilpacks, ran a compression test, that checked out, then decided to get a mate to check if that spark plug was firing out of the motor. Upon cranking it over, with the injectors disconnected, the car actually fired and ran on a couple cylinders and heaps of fuel came out the top of cyl 3 I'd say that injector's either spraying incorrectly or spraying far too much, which is fine as I'm planning on replacing them anyway I'm planning on making about 250kW on flex fuel, and have a set of 1000cc injectors from ozautosport, obviously overkill but I'm planning on building the motor and running more boost further down the line, do you reckon they'd be too big for a smooth idle on 98? Thanks for the replies gents, much appreciated
