    Scratching my head here

    I ended up checking the resistance of the wires for the CTS from the ecu to the plug if you look at the diagram the wiring is also connected to the TPS so i also checked that plug which all checked out. Purchased a tridon CTS from repco and installed it. Now not throwing any codes and it...

    Scratching my head here

    I had a moment earlier and checked the plug and connections to the temp sensor. It looked OK. I put my meter on the plug with it disconnected and measured 5V with ignition ON. I wriggled the wires along the loom to see if I would drop voltage/connection but nope it was stable at 5V. Does...

    Code 15 - ECT Sensor - Voltage Too High - Auto Transmission Only I did the ecu reset. I initially for a code 12 which I believe means the system is ok. I then got the above code....

    I've have already checked this and it's not storing anything unfortunately

    Scratching my head here

    Unfortunately no access to a good enough scanner for this. Multimeter would be my best bet. Watch for stable voltage increase and decrease with the pedal movements. Thanks!

    Scratching my head here

    Seems fine. Started the car after pulling it out and inspecting for any splits or cracks. Engine light was on but the "issue" wasn't there that time

    Scratching my head here

    Chasing my tail with an hesitation issue when opening the throttle. If I gently open throttle is revs up smooth but if I open up anything other than gently/smoothly it will hesitate then will rev up. Every now and then it will also not start on me till it is cold. In recent times I have...

    Anyone have any past experiences with replacing the head light and indicators in the front of the car? Fitments, quality and longevity. Looking to purchase a set and would love to hear from anyone who has purchased some and from where..

    HPC 304 Manifold only for looks or gains

    I actually didn't know that and now starting to make better sense of it all. Appreciate the knowledge that's been passed on
  18. daveb6886

    HPC 304 Manifold only for looks or gains

    Sure in your opinion what would be suitable for a stocky 304 with an aggresive/semi aggressive idle with good low to mid range power increase with the only thing needed is headers, pipes and stall. +1 for the rubber
  19. daveb6886

    HPC 304 Manifold only for looks or gains

    Completely understand and agree with you totally. It definitely doesn't hurt to have peoples opinions and suggestions. I wont be going with any recommendations without consulting multiple people, businesses and reputable engine builders. Just doing my home work :) Edit: It's also great to hear...

    HPC 304 Manifold only for looks or gains

    Set of good tyres is a must. I've got a live axle in the rear. Can you suggest a cam from crow that will have aggressive idle with good torque and mid range ? I want to stay local with purchases

    HPC 304 Manifold only for looks or gains

    I think 3.9 is the go mate cheers

    HPC 304 Manifold only for looks or gains

    Let me know how you go with that
  24. daveb6886

    HPC 304 Manifold only for looks or gains

    Not sure what's avaliable and from where but I'll find something better than the stocky 3.08
  25. daveb6886

    HPC 304 Manifold only for looks or gains

    So scrap the 70mm TB as its not avaliable anymore through mace. You dont think the 4503 is a good choice of cam ? Let me tell you abit more of the car and then let me know opinions. I do want a choppier idle than STD but also have better low and mid range power gains. Pacemakers , twin 200...

    HPC 304 Manifold only for looks or gains

    I just enquired about the 70mm TB and they are not making/modding these anymore. In regards to a different intake this is be a great mod but this will be something I will be looking into with another motor I have sitting in the shed. Ill take into the account the stall as the 4503 starts it...

    HPC 304 Manifold only for looks or gains

    So associated with the manifold mod and addition of the TB im looking into a crow 4503 with accessories to suit. I think a 2500 stall will be sufficient for the specs of the cam. Ill look into Ace performance for a chip. I was currently looking at Mace for it. Definitely open to looking into it...

    HPC 304 Manifold only for looks or gains

    I'm thinking this will help the Banana manifolds so regularly referred to as the "heat sinks" . Not chasing numbers but more after efficiency. I will be running the Mace 70mm TB. Any other hints and tips will be appreicated.

    VS Berlina interior globes

I went with a mixture of LED and halogen globes where I could find some and others not easily to find. Im stuck on the climate control globes that light up the...

    Front and rear suspension bushes

    Thanks for the info ill see what I can source in regards to the replacement arms. Hopefully someone can shed some light on where to get them. Ill get some prices on the other bushes and see where it all sits with price. Mine are pretty well shot so I think I will go ahead for the longevity for...

    Front and rear suspension bushes

    Front and rear suspension bushes

    Thats awesome thanks that will keep me busy. Is there any companies that sell all of these as a kit or would I need to go to say bursons and ask for all of these individually?

    Front and rear suspension bushes

    Hi while under the car doing a service and installing my exhaust I noticed alot of the bushes have perished. Im not too savvy about what all these bushes are called so if someone is able to help me identify what bushes there are for the front and rear end I can then purchase them and replace...
