Hi Mr President.

Ready for another epic week?

Damn straight. Yourself?

Got the first part of the training catch up this week. Meeting with a few boys for drinks to get a few things underway! Feeling pumped. Should be an awesome way to finish the week.

For interests sake, if I was to buy a non rego'd car from NSW, that happens to have had an engine swap along the line somewhere (engine number not updated), when I get the car to QLD and in prep for QLD rego, should I notify them of engine number change before I get the mobile roady guy out? Or? From what I remember, the mobile roady guy compared engine numbers before signing off on Cara's zed (which we bought from NSW).

Enlighten me

SKIDS!!! Morning all

Morning Nark. Was thinking this morning, since you're so anti-nissan, maybe you should get brakes from the new HSV. The bus goes past a Holden dealer and I saw the brakes and just thought, why would they need so much stopping power on something that produces SFA horsepower?

You would need to notify them before the mobile RW guy comes out.

Don't you work for TMR? :P

I thought that might be the case, however, since the car isn't on the QLD books, what would they update exactly?

Hell no I don't work for them, just in one of their buildings ;)

You raise a valid point. They would probably create a shell of the car on their systems and note it accordingly so that it's updated at time of rego - if they ran like an effective corporation.

Sure sure.... :P

I duno dude 435kw needs some stopping, also I didn't cook my brakes on Sunday. I only cook them with you guys cause it's like track day as opposed to line ups

    • to have this type of adjustment possible with a curve as I wish, what budget (engine) should be planned?  
    • People still have Skylines? I thought they're non-existent now. 
    • Harness update time have had great fun and learnt so much already so far with this project. I started off making both the ignition and injector sub harnesses in the hope any mistakes i made here aren't as hard to undo and learn from as the main harness.  A cool comparison of the old harness using presumably TXL wire and the new which is using Tezel. Also opted to use DTM plugs to keep the whole setup as neat and tidy as possible and tucked the wiring under the coil bracket to try and keep it all from sticking out too much. Although the injector harness, I'm not overly happy with as I'm still using the rubber boots that are supplied with the type of plugs it just looks ugly and sticks out like a sore thumb with the white identifiers so a slight redesign may be done.   Then it was main harness time and most importantly trying to route it nice and away from the heat it will use the OEM heater hose routing which is no longer present to keep the harness up high and secure. it's amazing how much smaller this harness is able to be compared to the old one. plugged everything into the emtron and with the help of the tuner again attempted to start it up and instantly fired up and running smoothly on all 6 which was a big shock to myself. So still some routing and adjusting to be done for the final fit up and installing a knock sensor harness plug which is in the post all has gone surprisingly well.     The old harness for shits and giggles.
    • They do that at random every now and then, with almost no detectable cause. Mine has done it a couple of times (over 25 years!!). Never worked out why.
    • I don't post on here and have been lurking for some time now. Many of the topics have helped me out more times than i can count. I was racing yesterday (11/9) and blew a front right CV shaft. I have spares so I popped a new one in. A thread i read previously said to check the engine mounts if you blow a front CV. Upon inspection, the front right mount was completely separated from the upper plate. This discovery saved me time and money, because i would have blown another CV if i went back out. Just wanted to thank you guys and wish everyone luck with with their builds. (Now if we could only come up with a solution for my power steering belt flying off after hitting the rev limiter, lol)
