Cowdys R33 Gtst

[cowdy]

So this happened the other day

Had someone pull out from a stop sign

Fixing it through the insurance, it's all booked In, until then. Gotta drive the focus

[cowdy]

Just got mr cadmoon to go and get a present off old man Noel for me today! I will post pictures when I get home. Now to go trawl yahoo Japan for the other one!!

[cowdy]

This was the bad boy I got off of Noel. I have found another and it is on its way from Japan.

Got my car back from the smash repairers. Like most insurance jobs. Dodgy.

No power to headlight. Coolant leak. Over charged me. Stuff missing. Paint chips. Over spray last but not least. A miss aligned headlight, and they just masked it with spacers.

And the headlight was mounted by one bolt. The ones in the headlight panel. Drilled through

Threw these bad boys in today, bc red coil overs fully adjustable. Picked them up for 650 with less than 5000km on them

Feels so much better!

Good to see her running again! Take her to the cruise on the weekend.

Needs the new turbo in first

Just waiting on exhaust mani studs from kudos and I'll be ready to go

[cowdy]

So I got the studs from kudos a few days ago and ripped it apart on Wednesday. 2 studs were broken and missing and 3 more were broken but still sitting in.

When undoing the turbo the only thing holding it on was the locking tabs. The nuts all came off by hand. No snapper needed to even crack them!

So I tried to get them out Thursday wit no luck. So called threadtech and this morning Craig came and got them all out in about 10 minuets. Money well spent!

So this afternoon after work I got stuck in and got it all done. New studs. New turbo new exhaust, gave it a service and new Coolant. Finally last new cam cover gaskets (been needing them for about 6 months)

Finally locked the door at 12.30 and said I need to get off my feet since being on them since 8am the morning before

The car is at work cooling down and I will let you all know how it goes tomorrow

Had one little hiccup. New washers for the oil feed on the turbo were leaking so I grabbed the old ones. Gave them a clean up on the wire buff and stuck them in. Worked perfect and no more leak!

[cowdy]

Had some more fab work done and had a new intercooler pipe done up and intake pipe and intake box

Having some issues with a flat spot since the new turbo I am pretty sure it is cool packs breaking down as I have had a set do that before. After the pipe work it was three times worse so took the boost bleeder off so I'm only running stock boost. It has settled down a little but is still there

So I have a new set of coil packs on order

[cowdy]

So I had these arrive today they will be going on next week and will have the rotors machined same time

[cowdy]

Been a while. Made some progress further to my goal.

Now have a pro sport boost guage

Ls2 coils and mil spec loom to go with

Turbo smart 800 v2 fpr

Got a raceworks fuel rail

And I will be changing pumps from a dw300 to a walbro 460

Changed ecu options going to be using a vipec v44 which I now have

And got a new laptop for using in car

Also have all fittings to fit said rail and a flex fuel sensor

All I have left is a few things to wire in

Get some injectors

For everything and get it taken in for a tune!

[cowdy]

I also have a techedge 2j9 wideband sensor

And a mamba tech piston type adjustable gate actuator

[cowdy]

So bit of drama the other day. Serviced my car and noticed an oil leak from the new turbo

Called gcg on Friday and they said yeah they will warrant it so take it out and send it back

Pulled it out Friday night and noticed this crap https://youtu.be/b7WaoPU_L3k

So I will speak to them Monday morning about it and see what to do

I have been on a bit of a parts hoarding stage

I now have all the fitings, hoses and major parts needed to finish my car

Got some raceworks 1150cc e85 injectors, continental flex sensor, buying a injector sub loom so I can put plugs on it instead of using adapters getting the walbro pump next Wednesday

So nearly there

After sorting out this turbo issue I will see how that goes and then get some money together for tune!!!
