What have you done to your car today?

[Guitar_Guy]

Spent 8 hours trying to fit a version 7 TMIC to my E-Tune Legacy.... no success. Put an offset version 7 master clutch cylinder reservoir in to help it fit and it did! But couldn\'t devise any clever mount to stop it resting on the waste gate actuator... :-\ So in answer what I\'ve done to my car today, nothing except sworn.... a lot... quiet time now I think.

piece of rad hose between the 2

[Marky]

Bend the actuator nipple bit downwards

Problemo solvded-o

[Guitar_Guy]

Yeah tried all sorts but it was done with a very good mechanic that won\'t settle for second best (definitely admire this about a mechanic). Little bit gutted but hey, maybe the money could be spent better elsewhere first.

Convert it to single turbo; then the V7 intercooler fits EAAASY!!!

-oh, right, E-tune. my bad.

pulled the front covers off my rs to do the seals coz they leak onto my heatwrap ,smells badand smokes,asked repco for some seals dumbass goes and gets 3 seals i said i need another 2 for the cams ,lets say there was AN intresting arguement over it and i no longer shop at that repco shop went to a different one (i used to work there so knew were the good staff are ) straight away no computers to the shelf and handed them to me job done, i also pulled the hermonic balancer off with ease and my timming sprocket straight off no tools ,little worried but hey ,also installed my surge tank and bosch external pump ready or the tune on saturday,changed steeringwheel changed boost hmm changed gbox to close ratio one due to last box deciding to become 4speed :-\

Hoist was finally free at work, so got all my gearbox and diff oils changed. My cars only done 65,000km and was unsure if they had been done at all. But the old oil was still a yellowish colour, at least I know it\'s been done now though.

Also changed the antifreeze, and replaced the air flow meter, and got rid of the K&N air filter that was in it and replaced with a HKS dry type one.

So much easier using a hoist as opposed to axle stands and a jack.

Next issue I have to sort is knocking rear shocks, it\'s on a V8 STI WRX I\'ve been told that regreaseing them works with some success.

brought rotors, pads, bushes, oil, rack mount bushes, swaybar bushes and im sure alot of other shit. This weekend will be long

Ahhh single turbo... one day! Want to do a full STi conversion to version 8 running gear sometime next year. Atleast do a rebuild and put in a version 8 block with the twin turbo setup. So many options, so little money. The rebuild it has currently only has 50,000kms including the gear box so might just buy an engine and do it up to put in a shell later down the track.

Removed a said sticker from the rear, while contemplating either to do a new down pipe for the arrival of a new snail, or another full exhaust as its been 8 years since i built the last one,

Another time for a change i think

[Kiwi_Fozze]

Picked her up from the panelbeaters. Such a freaking nice job, even touched up some flaking clear coat around the back windows. Stoaked!!!! Forgot how quick that thing is... Lol

[Nick_96_RSB]

new uprated front sway bar links, look just like Whiteline extra heavy duty ones, noltec or something, alloy and nolathane

front end is soo much tighter! back end up sometime in the next couple of weeks.

regreasing works a treat!!! few hours per corner for a quick job, or you could kero soak them to make sure you have all the old grease out of them. easy enough to do, just time consuming

just changed headlight lamps (one had popped, think i have an earthing issue somewhere, cheepies until i get it sorted), chucked some hose clamps around 2 of the breather pipes that connect to the under manifold pipe, looks like they were moving, and one had been leaking (post MAF) and my a/f corrections are testament to a vac leak somewhere. lets see how it goes over the next couple of days

-1.76 between 5.6 - 50g/s

-6 above 50g/s

Hmm interesting - I have similar trim\'s on my \'01 B4 here. Do negative values indicate an overly rich or lean condition? I think I\'ll need to return to stock boost or get it tuned properly with the EBC I have running the show....Anyone know whether TT setup on 3rd Gen have restrictor pills plumbed into the primary Boost line?

[sobanoodle]

Replaced cracked radiator, fresh coolant and Samco silicon piping in.

[Jimbob]

[Kiwi_Fozze]
