Hey guys. Since I changed my gallery gaskets I’m experimenting and intermittent issue with VTC 1. Can will drive perfectly for about 30mins but when it gets really hot, with some spirited driving, it looks like VTC 1 is sticking at 65 degrees. And produces codes P0011 and P0300. See picture of my Ecutek dashboard. I’m thinking this may be an oil blockage somewhere maybe. Anyone any ideas. thanks john

How much are the plain ones delivered?

impressed you managed to work out what that even meant. 😂 I must learn to proof read when I type on my phone. I’ll get some pictures posted up Alex. In short, I want to purchase some wiring pins for the plugs which go into the back of the head unit screen. Cheers John

Morning everyone does anyone have any contacts where I can get Lee tricep pins for the OEM plugs which fit in the back of the head unit? cheers john

I really don’t mind the look of the red core. Puts a little contrast in there.

Really happy with these. Ended up going with a set of Bride rails. Straight bolt on job, no messing about with runners and bases.

Fantastic. Thanks buddy.

Hey everyone. who are the admin on the site, I could do with some help from one of them please. thanks John

Chopped out the front panel in preparation for the supercharger later in the year. I want to prep the car as much as I can to make the install smooth. I’ve also designed a bracket to mount an oil cooler. I’ve passed this to my fabricator to get made. Hopefully should be ready tomorrow. Next stop, custom AN10 oil lines.

The passenger occupancy sensor was a bit of a concern for me with changing to the recaros and on the stock seats I found it a headache as it went off when I put my gym bottle on the seat. Just decided the cut the sensor out the stock seat and I’ll fix it to the floor under the seat so it’ll always think the seat is empty. I also removed the heat elements from the OEM seats as I had the crazy idea of pulling the recaro seats apart and fitting them to those. After removing the pads, I looked at the recaro seats and bottled it due to the price of them 🙈🙈

Parts arrived on Friday so I had an hour or so to fit done of them. Low temp thermostat, Alloy Rad, which I’m really impressed with the quality if I’m honest. They’ve clearly listened to feedback and upped their game. 25 row oil cooler which I’m going to make up my own custom lines. I’m also going to put together a fuel return kit but more detail on that to come later. I’ve got done bride subframes for my seats on order from Japan but it’s a 4 week wait.

Bit of a thread revival guys. If I replaced the oil temp with an oil pressure sensor I’m guessing this e we couldn’t automatically work on the gauge. An oil pressure requires 3 wires, 12v, ground and 5v signal but an oil temp has 2 wires.

I hated the OEM seats. Just felt cheap not supportive. I’ve always loved these seats. They’ll look the nuts in the zed. Next interior job is I want a nice wheel. The OEM wheel feels really dated.

It appears I was using the wrong theme. I’ve changed and uploaded pictures and they are all the right way. Who’d have known.
