    Cold Running Problem

    replaced my #1 lead with a new one...didnt replace rotor as the new one had the same resistance. new plugs and....fouled after 30seconds running. disconnected coil lead produces a healthy spark...there must just be fuel constantly going through the engine. this is so FTL, hope i can make taupo! will, might have to take apart and fix that plug you were talking about..re solder. hmm fun. could make sense why injectors are opening all the time (if thats the case)

    Cold Running Problem

    am in auckland some early morning sunday investigation may have resulted in something dizzy rotor has around 1k resistance between the centre and arm..should be zero! also finding it hard to get a reading from dizzy cap points to the end of the plug lead...too much resistance..plugs are carbon fouled hard..so i imagine is the inside of my nice clean head

    Cold Running Problem

    it was a bit of a stretch to reach my lucky eggs so i came up with the following seems to be moisture in the AFM...replaced with a spare i had and did it even worse..cleaned the current one with carb cleaner and opened the top and got as much out as i could..need to get it nice n hot to dry it off. waiting for it to cool down so i can test again! wouldnt be surprised as the cap was loose, and it did get a healthy spray of water/steam. fun also replaced with BMW coolant as instructed by will, and front pads. non OEM ones suck! toasted after half a puke day and a taupo driver training. and the appropriate road use
  7. cheers dave, champ! 25 is more palatable. i can bolt a fire ex somewhere
  8. yeah but HOW do it get the clubsport license from msnz that lasts a while might get nat race license, but wont be soon enough for next week!
  9. doubt a test, just a pain to pay $50 or so?? for only one day..
  10. what race license do i need for the taupo sprints and how do it get one? cant find any forms or anything on the MSNZ page..please help!
  11. when cold, my car runs like a bag of arseholes. runs on about 4 cylinders, misfires esp around 2k rpm. is much better when warm, but still feels like a misfire just above idle, which makes moving away from stationary a pain in the ass. have replaced the water temp sensor with a good one, not much more diagnostics yet, gonna work through the bentley manual. looking for ideas though! suspiciously close in time to the steam clean it had last week. any ideas appreciated, sick n tired of looking like a complete n00b in traffic! my cam probably doesnt help, but is def something underlying also, after the steam clean, head rebuild and a bit of thrashing, lumpy idle is gone..idles lower (around 600rpm) and sounds like a normal car!
  12. mirrored or a backwards m30? or m20? huge turbo!

    bilsteins around 1100, h&r's not sure but prob around 5-600?? a bit more expensive than 300 jamex or whatever but worth every penny..great road car springs. happy to take for a drive in my car if you want convincing! apparently glenn, bontanymotorworx does them??
