What did you work on today?

[trotty]

Well with 1 good hand I managed to do 2 engine mounts and changed engine and Gbox oil.

Great work . I love white.

I did some brain storming and figured out how to get the mirrors to fold in and out with my alarm. Luckily my alarm has selectable timed outputs. I'll post a video over the weekend.

Changed the front pads to Remsa on my Brembo's in an attempt to stop them squealing horribly. So much easier to change than the stock pads

did it stop the squealing though?

 

[trotty]

My standard brakes started squealing with remsa pads. Don't know how brembos would go. Lol

I disconnected the rear muffler, sounds a lot better haha

Haha no it doesn't!

Sounds like a dirty wog spec hilux with a cannon...

On the plus side, it does shoot flames haha

Pretty much becomes a straight pipe haha. One thing I've found is that I hit boost cut with the rear muffler disconnected, with it connected I dont get boost cut lol

Hmm, how did you do the mirrors? My system has a spare button for a boot release, I wonder if I could use that to do something similar.

 

[Ozyvr4]

What sort of alarm do you have. You need capability to have 2 outputs that can hold for timed amount if time. The mirrors have 2 wires that change polarity on open and close. I have a think about it. I might be able to find a timer that can be triggered from the cdl wires.

I have a viper alarm and they have outputs that can set to latch for a specified timed and linked to a particular function of the alarm .

Hope the above makes sense.

Took the AYC cover off to check what colour switch I have. Should hopefully have fresh fluids in next week thanks to some local CVR4 chaps. Then I just need to sort out everything else before I can drive the car in anger.

 

[AKKO]

More preparing (dismantling: removing guard etc) ahead of getting the VR4 back together and on the road again...

Not sure how your suppose to get to some of those bolts to tighten during reassembly hah

 

[storm_detonation]

Made my vr4 go!

How did it go?

 

[Blackbird]

Hmmmm I'd like to have my indicators flash on my stock mitso imobiliser....
I know there's a write up or something somewhere... maybe I just read someone was planning on doing it....
always stuff to do!!
Paintless dent removal I think first lol

[Macca]

I bled my clutch and adjusted the pedal. The fluid was looking a bit dirty and there was air in it which I'm a bit surprised about but it should be awesome now.

 

[TME_Steve]

How did it go?

Compared to how it was before all the good bits got removed? Slow, lots of body roll, soft, floaty, useless brakes, no grip, quiet, smooth. All over the place but a wheel alignment has fixed that, who'd have thought a car with camber changed at both ends, all control arms removed and put back, changed hub carriers on the front, rack ends, tie rods and tie rod ends, struts removed, raised a lot (forgot how high stock is) would need a wheel alignment....

Stereo sounds good though, someone should buy that

Did the biggest job I could today, given my arm is still in a sling lol. Smoked Indicators for the Legnum, I hate orange Indicators personally
.Took almost 1 whole minute, definitely happy with the results!

Trusty Feeler gauge popped it out very easily

And the new look

SO a how to remove indicator guide, AND a work I did today post all in one.
AND a product review, the indicators are still actually quite bright and easy too see, although a little 'white', may replace the bulbs with bright amber ones to keep other road users happy

 

[Akys]

Nice. Such a hard job aye.lols. Where did you get it from?, I plan to get one too.
