Has anyone seen the rising Sunday event at barbagello on the 4th? Or been to one before?

Cars n Coffee is this sunday at Kwinana... are they both on the same day?

 

i went to the first Rising Sunday. heaps of cars got stickered. was a good day but

Clearly you just don't appreciate how rare the Hyundai getz gtr is. It's a 1/1 worldwide. Will be highly collectable in the future.

If your not into collectable cars and like the getz tuner scene then this beast is for you! images%20(1).jpg

Never seen a bad boy like this before? It matches my swimming clothes!car-modification-fail-turbo.jpg.4c1bea07c03e73c563efd30492134a4a.jpg

Hey Trev I was looking up lifter issues on Sau and it had your posts solving the issue?! (r&d maniac) I've noticed a slight rattle in the exhaust cam p/s on no.6. I disconnected the coil pack at rattle revs. 2800-3200 and the rattle went away, phew no piston slap or gudgeon pin issues etc. Was wondering the fix for this without bagging my mate dave out.? Doesn't affect the performance at all and I's only in the specific rev range with the H.t. Lead disconnected? I changed the oil on Saturday and it runs sweet except for the noisey lifter on 6? At those r p.m.?

Doesn't affect the performance at all and I's only in the specific low rev range with the H.t. Lead disconnected it disappeared. I changed the oil on Saturday and it runs sweet except for the noisey lifter on 6? At those r p.m.?

I ran it hard on Saturday morning early on the old oil and it was noticeable at idle. Only noticeable at the 2800-3200 after the oil change? Would assume it only needs a new lifter? or clean (doubt it) and gapping not valve stem seal honing etc? Any advice?

Can only pick up the rattle in 2nd gear under mild acceleration?

i stripped and cleaned my lifters when i rebuilt the engine because i had a rattle for over 100,000Kms. 

 

ended up getting a different head and modified it and used the lifters that came from the new head. the rattle is still there but turned out to be an injector which doesnt affect performance so i havent replaced it yet but i might in the near future as im considering an injector upgrade to top feeds

how loud is it? 

 

not sure if you can use an oil flush to get the gunk out... they arent too bad to clean apart from having to get them out. there are also a couple different varieties on our engines. look the same externally but different sizing internally

sorry too hard to guess without looking. 

 

id imagine with more revs the oil pressure would prevent lifter noise so idle would be worse but thats purely an edumacated guess.

    • Thanks, plan is to drain all fluid tomorrow and do smoke test to find out the leak.   Appreciate your help and want to understand how the system work. So cooling is achieved by the long loop not any rad? The diagram seems to suggest it connects to somewhere inside the cabin and I thought that is a cooler inside firewall. If you look at the diagram it seems to show it connects to something inside firewall. I tried chasing it but not easy unless I take loads off   i am confident pump is good as fluid goes in and it gets soft( steering) but as soon as I turn engine off , loads of bubble come to surface and overflow. When engine is on , fluid level is below minimum but when off it shoots off and thinking it is sucking air in. I suspect aluminium pipe may have a crack line or whole   smoke test with no fluid should be a good start and if needed will remove the pump   In addition, the one going under the engine bay is high pressure line and one directly connecting from pump to resorvoir is return/ low pressure?   finally I searched and suggestion is to use dexron 2 but that is discontinued so bought dexron 3 as all research suggest it is compatible and shouldn’t cause any issues/ blow seals. I bought two liter of dexron 3 motul atf
    • Don't worry about. Just don't try to drive hard enough to make boost and you'll be fine.
    • Yes. This has already been said. It is a loop of hardline in front of the radiator. Because.... the pump is on the LHS and the steering rack hydraulic connections are where they always are on a RHD steering rack....on the RHS. The high pressure line goes down under the engine, along the crossmember, like it does on all Skylines. Don't just throw expensive braided hoses/other kits at it. Work out what is wrong and fix that.
    • Still got the afm on the intake, clamps are shut tight, only loose hose is the one that goes from the j pipe towards the IACV, since it's next to impossible to find a factory hose and the barbs are different sizes (I'm still using clamps on this hose to try and help it seal on the iacv side) I've ordered parts to make up the hotside of the intercooler pipes, I'll plumb it in and see what happens in a few days I suppose The turbo's internally gated, can I just unscrew the tension rod to let the gate open?
    • Did this ever go further ? Would love some updated info
