Ohh so no T88 or anything nutso Fatz???

Heheh seriously Tosh, I remember wondering why so many freight planes leaving bankstown over the weekend, (truthfully quite a few were active) taking extra slabs down to keep fatz happy ehh?? hahah fatz reminds me of a simpsons episode which goes HOMER -All right, brain. You don't like me and I don't like you, but let's just do this and I can get back to killing you with beer, thats what it's like with you and your day job ehh fatz?? hehehe

mmm beer

big single would be nice

but looks like merlis turbos have just found a new home

but the best part is that i still have one good turbo from the gtr

will convince nath to put it on the capella engine and se if he can blow it up

might hit more than 110 down wakefield straight then!!!!!

na nath bought a 1975 mazda capella 4spd coupe when i killed the motor in my car nath offored to let me drive it at wakefield for the day

was great hit 110 down the straight spun out once and even overtook a r34gtt (sure it was his fist lap and he was probably only using 1st and second but still got him)

i love that car!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well from the feedback in this thread i've booked my car in with Nathan next Wednesday to take a look at a vacuum leak problem I have (damn these trackdays, costs me $1,500 in repairs afterwards for each circuit day :D). Looks like it could be a manifold gasket or somewhere in near the injectors, will know next wednesday arvo I guess ;)

Ah well whilst it's there i'll get a few other bits n pieces done to make it all feel worth it.

Thanks for the info.

    • I tried my best, well I see how it is though... It's time to be ruthless! I'll up my bid with a JVC sub and an amp to run it, 8 stainless steel drink coasters with a rubber backing, and a photo of Tom Cruise. Oh, I can increase the cash portion by 20 cents if that helps. 
    • Or if it's grey, is it watery? Does it do it after you've been for like an hour long drive it will still do it, or just near the start of the trip? As GTS said, does it seem like oil (blue), water (white/grey) or fuel (black)? Sometimes the colour can be hard to see clearly too for what it is, as GTS says, what's it smell like?
    • I wonder if part of it has to do with when you've each bought the kits. I honestly have the feeling that the silicon joiners in the 2000s were actually better quality than most of what you can find these days. Even in the same brands. Everyone racing to the cheapest price while still trying to make profit means lower quality parts. For coolant, I personally would be going with rubber, OR, converting the radiator and engine to use the huge AN fittings hose for radiators.
    • If shift solenoid A is bad, that explains limp mode --- now you're in the same position as I mentioned previously, in that the next step is to confirm loom/wiring integrity from TCU to gearbox connector with a multimeter (the TCU cannot detect a broken wire, which can happen ..ie; rodent damage, loom rubbed through)...and then finally measure resistance (at the gearbox connector) for shift solenoid A ... ...once you confirm shift solenoid A is bad (open circuit, really low or greater than 40ohm resistance), then it's a job ; you have buy a complete solenoid set, get under the car and drop transmission oil pan, and remove valvebody assembly (the solenoids sit on top), replace solenoid set, and reassemble....it's not exactly a fun task, but readily doable.
    • Is it oil smoke or fuel smoke? They smell different.
