The Gli sold last night, and ive bought a few parts for the ti which is booked into the shop for monday.. CV and steer boots will need replacing, front drivers mount (Possibly the other's, didnt check), and he'l have a muck around with the clutch/cmc.. Oh yeah, and leaky dizzy :(

But all should be okay aha, have a few spares to chuck on.

In the meantime though ive bought an oil cooler, new battery, replaced the split left mount with a solid one and bought some decent tools cause everyone knows that makes working on cars %100 better  :)



Would this work, to plug up the itb injector holes? Even with the help of a 5c piece? Couldnt find any jb'weld, they had simular shit but for plastic... Can venture to further stores if not.



Fooly sick oil cooler i got :D



This is cool! Thinking of hitting my boss up for a big ass tractor shifter, and sticking it on with a sr20 short shifter. Something a bit different ahaha

My cars Rwc is finally done !

Heaps keen, tomorrow is the Anzac public holidays, so all suspension should be able to go in, rear toe arms to replace the what-cha-macall-its for a little rear camber. Might buy a stereo on the way home too  :)

Oh and went back to buy that stuff ^^^ and they stocked jb weld... So I bought it and plugged those motherfuckers

Picked up the car, it's pretty mad.

Gear changing is an absolute fark though.
The clutch feels fine, it's just the car doesn't want to go into gear?
Have you push it pretty hard, and sometimes pump the clutch ones or twice.

Looking on the net, other car forums say it could be a worn cable?

Ideas?  :(

What car is it? U12s don't have cable clutch. You may need to bleed the clutch or could be a leaky master or salve cylinder.

Hahaha true.. It's come a little better since last night. I'm gonna leave it and see what happens...

Today was good though, front shocks in, rear coilover sleeves in, she's pretty stiff.

Was gonna do camber but just cbf'd after that.

Nah, it could be good, but id rather buy new. I'm sick of fucking around, so may as well do something once and right.

It could just be a worn voltage regulator.. It's the main thing to go wrong with alternators. Easy fix hopefully, otherwise Repco wants $495 brand new.. Reconditioned one I have to enquirer about otherwise good ol eBay wants $200 for a naravra one

Edit:
Fook it il head out tomorrow.

Alternator through a mate at repco, $412. Guttered but better than $520..

No the radiators fucked out. Thermo's don't turn on when the cars accserioes are on, which the gli did. So I think there's the problem. Other than that, Thermostat.

If I need new fans, I'm thinking about going alloy radiator triple core like Aaron's with new fans instead.

Matt, sorry to do it....but alternator rebuilds are usually around $180 through auto elecs, i've been through 2 on my black U12 over the past 13 years (voltage regs died from heat from Cyl 1's header tube being in close proximity)

At least you know it's a brand spanker in any case.

if you can, install a heatshield between the exhaust and alternator, or wrap your extractors in heat wrap.

Nah no worries man! I knew I was going down the expensive route but it works and is reliable ahaha.

Yeah I was going to get some heat tape ASAP ! Specially cause I knocked the extacors whilst getting the engine mount undone hahah. Blisters.  :o

Fixed the rad fans too, read through some tech articles on here.. Ended up pulling the ECU heat sensor (big red plug where the top rad pipe goes into the head) off, sanded it back to brass and it works fine hahah. Must have been too sludgy to get a decent reading

Should be more updates soon, as long as not much more goes wrong.. Lol

You mean coolant temp sensor, there is also another smaller one next to it you should look at cleaning.

The fans in the n15 don't work either, nor is the heat guage accurate, according to the huge the car is boiling after 2 minutes when Infact it's still stone cold. I cleaned those 2 sensors and replaced with new ones and still nothing.

Do they come on when air cons on? If they don't it'l be your fans, not a heat sensor (as far as I know?)

Edit: re read, and I dunno man ahaha. SSS and Noss might.

most of the time the problem with the fans is the relays. they will fail. the cause is apparently dragging on the fans.. i.e. the bearings in the fans are on the way out, it ends up causing too much current draw and the fuse in the relay/fusible link/whatever you want to call it, will pop. not literally. i'm just looking for words to make it more interesting :P

other than that, there are 2 coolant sensors arent there? one for the gauge and one for the ecu to control fans & ignition retard etc? cheapest thing to change is the relays if you can go down to a wrecker and pick some new ones up. they usually fit in a pocket if you can go to a pick a part type one. otherwise they dont charge you much for them.

i ended up changing the entire fan setup with another one from another pintara and things went great.. then when i did the turbo install, i had to take all this out for the extra room i needed and i went to twin davies craig fans & controller. stupid thing is, the davies craig controller is.. wait for it.. easily damaged by heat.

i went through 2 davies craig controllers at about $60 each at the time before i cracked the shits. i ended up getting pringles around and he helped me wire the davies craig fans into the standard relays etc.
