Thanks mate. TCU is still in place, but the Wolf takes over a 'few' tasks it previously controlled ...Originally Posted by NissanGQ4.2
As said, fingers (and everything else I have two of! lol) firmly crossed.

June 17th 2010 was the day we started the relationship!!! lmao
It's been over 18 months in the making (very different rig to the one I purchased for $7500) and hopefully, just maybe ... I might actually get to drive it in the coming days after another 3 week stint off the road!! lol ...
Thought the idea was to keep em off road as much as possible :-)
IF YA DONT GET STUCK YA AINT TRYIN HARD ENOUGH........OR YA TOOK THE CHICKEN TRACK
WARNING: TOWBALLS USED WITH SNATCHSTRAPS DO KILL!!

lmao!!!
My good sense of humour is fast diminishing ...
Glad to hear tank is almost done
bet he,s got itchy rubber now wanting to hit
the tracks again
Well ... as fate would have it, the ECU (new Wolf one) is a bit dodgy so it's being shipped back to Melbourne tomorrow for repair (crank angle sensor pinouts wrong, no injection pulse, no spark ...). Soooooo, there goes another week with no progress ... that said, it is what it is and fingers crossed that something will go right from here.
A few piccies in the interim, there's heaps so won't bore you anymore than I have to with them!!! The new ceramic coating on the pipes is very blingy indeed!! lol - until they get covered in crud when I get my hands back on the wheel !!!
Not sure the CV grease is meant to look like that!!! Those inner oil seals are a pain in the proverbial to change by the way!!

Took the opportunity to give the swivel hub bearings, etc, etc a tickle up whilst it was apart ... amazingly, I had no parts left over!!! lmao

You can just see the dump pipe at the back of the engine with its new coat of 'shine' also.
