winter is tough on me.

 

[abunai888]

After the injector faillure wanted to see if everything was ok so visited the dyno for a run but ended up tuning.
Tuner told me that afr was richen up a bit here and there
that confirmed that injectors was messed up since new...
(the cold start problems started a few days after the second tuning)
also the exhaust transition helped things to be more smooth all acording to my tuner.

bought a used set front/rear sway bars from a ek9 type r !
front is 26mm
rear is 22mm
going to paint them blue !

Much of a difference with the 22 on the rear too the 15mm ? Good stuff as usual .

That's strange ! So you're back to your hard start after your latest tune ? Or is that the long fuel trim he was reading From your old injectors?

yes car is more balanced with the 26 front 22 rear than the 22 front 15 rear also feels more tight over the bumps
with the ek9 set up tire pressures start to play huge role a few psi lower at the back can make the car oversteer at wot light turns.

yes
car was tuned with faulty injectors at the first time
strange was that the cold start problems started a couple of weeks after tuning.

Cool , good information for the ARB, our winter is very much the same ,wash car today, happy look at car tomorrow . Pissis me off big style.
Good barrier of wax and it rinses right of handy enough .
I got a hand mit microfiber and polishing the car is so much faster where before with the microfiber cloth it was hard work and time consuming.

photoshoped the front number plate they should delete them by law !

when i did the rear ek9 arb also installed a function 7 subframe.
it's a must on non type r chassis since they dont have the extra tie from factory.
when adding bigger sway bars than 15mm it can tear the chassis points where the sway bar mounts.
all non ek9 guys must be careful and buy a good subframe brace like asr or F7 also extra bling comes free with that mod !

a bunch of pics from a small trip i did.
the only change i made was the carbon sticker on the front of the engine bay bored the look of it pretty fast tho so i removed it.

whanted to check how the walbro was doing since was hearing less noise than normaly so found this !
the filter was messed up by small bits from the rubber pipe that was deteriorating this rubber pipe joins the hard line and the fuel pump
both replaced with the oem parts i had from the oem fuel pump
the actual 190lph walbro fuel pump still rocks today but its lines are total crap !

p.s. i use only 100 ron unleaded fuel
bp or shell v power racing fuel.

 

[abunai888]

made the key a bit better to my eyes.

 

[abunai888]

gave a try on this must admit not a big fan from the first use of it...

Use it on your windows also specially the front ,
You won't believe the dirt it picks up ,
Good to use them before you use a electric polisher
But doing it by hand helps too .
