Ill race you Pete,

Who will have it home first?

Probably you.

Sadface.

Race, the 34s are too farkin heavy to push, you win, lol

You will notice I try not to guess when I will get anything done anymore BUT by the end of the week I will be driving down the Highway, looking for adventure :)

Hope you get yours back real soon , I miss my spirited drives, it is boring without it :/

Tell more about leak

I tried to add the Video they sent but it would not load on SAU , maybe this laptop as I have a lot of trouble with it ?

It was at the top of the radiator, were the orange hose is clamped on, they had it under 20psi pressure to try and find it on Saturday, but it did not show up. They did it again today and there it was, pissing out ??

I do not understand that and wonder if all of that pressure did not cause the leak at the radiator, you would think if it was going to show up it would have done so when they first applied the pressure to the system, but cars ?

So I guess it comes down to when the car is being driven again or on the Dyno when they are doing the tune ?

Well at least it isn't disappearing into the motor. That would be suck.

Also metal and heat are interesting in their own way. But surely there would be a green/white stain down the radiator or at least at the bottom.

I'm glad they found it though.

I will wait until it has been driven before I get excited about the leak being found, it sucks being a pessimist :/

I was hoping to get the Dyno info today, maybe tomorrow. I thought it was done last week but they said it had to go back on again, not sure if it is on the Dyno ATM or not ?

It sucks waiting :/

Post the video on youtube and link it. Come on I have gone through a tonne of popcorn waiting for this.

haha, it just shows a pressured leak on the Orange hose for about 4 seconds but I will try on my PC as my the laptop is shit :(

No luck with the PC, never posted a vid on youtube :/

Fired off a few emails asking when the tune will be finished and since everything else has been fixed, it is only the FINAL TUNE to be done, should be interesting to see if the 3.5" Dump & Cat can pick up 14KWs to nudge it over 400KW, BUT more importantly, if it feels any different to drive :/

3 months just fly by when you are having fun :)

    • It can't be some stupidly proprietary video signal coming out of it that only Nissan's can understand. Surely you can just find some generic camera to stuff in there and use hot melt glue/blu-tac/gaffer tape to hold it in place if need be?
    • Update: Tunehouse looked into the problem and identified a wiring issue between the camera unit and the connector. They managed to get it working , but did warn me at some point it will stop working again. From their perspective it is unserviceable and will need replacement. They did some research and found that the new replacement camera would be Approx $1400 supply only (their fitting cost would be $190) . They did provide the part number (28442-JL05B) and a quick google of the part number shows that these are rather expensive brand new (seemingly no longer in manufacture) for the places that still have them in stock, with the used option potentially presenting  the same issue down the track at some unknown point. They are happy for me to supply the part so that they can fit it. Decisions, decisions... I can definitely recommend Tunehouse (thankyou Vee37!). Cost for the diagnosis was as quoted  ($190) , car was ready on time and communication was top notch. Their workshop is super clean and modern, and there was plenty of car candy parked out the front on the day I went.   Would definitely go back.   
    • to fix the voltage drop issue I swapped out the old 150amp alternator which turns out is a brand known for having issues and replaced it with the black 180amp alternator beside it 
    • For anyone interested, the Way Back Machine has that Japanese website archived with pictures, etc: https://web.archive.org/web/20051023225805fw_/http://www.a31cefiro.com/air_con.htm "Simply swapping the wiring of the harness will not allow it to function properly. For the outdoor air sensor and sunlight sensor, disconnect the wiring connected to CN1-11 of the air conditioning harness from the harness and connect the sensor side wiring to earth. For the indoor air sensor, disconnect the wiring connected to CN2-3 of the air conditioning harness from the harness and connect the sensor side wiring to earth. The connector PIN numbers listed here are the genuine A31 PIN numbers. To avoid incorrect wiring, check with a tester before wiring. Also, disconnect the wiring in a location close to the sensor. The disconnected harness side wiring will not be used, so be sure to insulate it." Wish someone sold a conversion harness to just plug-and-play a Kouki 180sx digital climate control into C33/A31. I'm decent with wiring but feeling kinda lazy about taking this on. Edit: Did some more digging and found a helpful Minkara blog post about the conversion as well: https://minkara.carview.co.jp/userid/1831116/car/1360568/2284209/note.aspx "After installation is complete or the battery is replaced, you need to go into self-diagnosis mode and set the internal air recirculation. The way to do it is to "hold OFF with the key on for more than 5 seconds, set the number to 5, then press 卍→C." ↑↑↑It probably won't make sense unless you actually try it (・∀・)." Lol wtf
    • Maybe SAUNSW could see howany members would do a motorkhana day if Schofield's is still available for a reasonable price...
