Hmm, maybe I need one for the GT-Four then... :lmao: Actually, there's plenty of other things I need for the GT-Four first. Like a working battery. And unbroken suspension bushes. And another 150hp. :)

lol

 

levin is pretty much all set for next year

 

will get the touch up tune done at the start of the dry season

 

= happy times at drag season hopefully :)

hrmm

 

got a 4AC lined up (thanks andy)

 

so i guess itll be rolla badness asap...

 

had a guy keen as take the silvia for a run last night hes supposed to be getting the money today... pity i got defected last night... again.... stupid coppers with sand in their gina

andrew any luck with the idle control valve?

Lol sif, its andy we are talking about , go get it from him if you want it in a hurry lol, but you wont cause your lazy :yes:

Some more progress, relay block is all finished, fuse block too. Fuel pumps are all working like they should, albeit a bit noisy. Decided to see if I could get some life out of the motor today and connected the loom. Pretty messy! Connected the few other things that need to be connected to the car loom.

 

Cranked it for quite a while without plugs in and oil pressure came up... thank christ! It has spark and seemingyl compression but no running yet :yes:

 

There is fuel pressure in the rail and the injectors aren't stuck so I'm thinking I need to add a resistor pack. Try that tomorrow and see how it goes.

 

 

 

 

Slowly slowly...

Radiator is in. Hooray.

Appears my headers won't mate to the head nicely? Tis veyr odd, they don't' foul on anything but the flange seems like its bent or something. I'll look closer tomorrow.

 

The car runs like arse... idles but missing at idle, seems ok when you hold it at approx 2 grand(guestimate) and then revs cleanly from there. Also if you try and flat the throttle out straight away it has a big hesitation.

 

 

Bugger it. :y:

sounds like TPS bro check if it works.

 

good to hear you got her goin alright, which rad did you use?

 

 

AE71 has just fired by itself :y:

 

gotta work out fuel supply tho now lol

wow.. well it runs

 

even after me cracking several hissy fits and saying it wouldnt, andy made it happen hey

 

biggest props evar to him he is the legendzor.

 

going to put the rest of it together now (headlights, tail lights front bar, exhaust)

whos ae71 is this one lukey? ps got andrews number?

used ae71 radiator and just made some mounts. went to indys and guessed a hose that would fit and it was bang on :y:

 

 

you reckon TPS hey? I've got another one here that I suppose I could test. Would that really cause it to miss though? I'm going to make sure ignition timing is ok first and then maybe a simple test across the injectors to see if I need the resistors I put in.

 

After that, sensor checks...

 

 

needs more weber....

levin is still going good. got a leak somewhere in a clutch line as i have no fluid and the pedal is slackzors :P

cheers luke have to get a photo of the doge coil wireing ahahahah was good fun

 

yeah i still got the sucker here under the stairs

me num is 0408447267

Got the extractors on today... bit dodge but meh, they seal and they're on. Turns out they hit the floorpan though. :P

 

Checked the timing and it was around 30º... not ideal. set it to something lower and it dropped the idle but thats about it... still misses.

 

Played around with the TPS and didn't seem to change a lot so I'm thinking it might be a bit suss... But also don't know if that would cause a miss...

 

 

Will try very simple things tomorrow like checking compression again, check leads, plugs, timing again make sure its bang on. Then on to fiddling with sensors...

 

Anyone have a TPS I could borrow shortly? I have a spare but its different...

 

Also an injector or two (grey square plug) would be great... think one of mine is a bit suspect as well...

 

 

Any other ideas would be ace.
