No worries mate, glad you got it sorted. I didn’t suspect the AFM being the issue!

Re: SubiNats 2026
Yep, got it locked in. I should be there too. Spewing last year didn’t happen, it was my “trifecta year”.
Anyway, looking forward to Subinats‘26!

Re: Ej swap idle issues
G’day Riley,
Clean the throttle position sensor. If it’s anything like the gen1 unit you can pull the cover off and clean up the contact tracks then properly reset it following the factory procedure.
Check for vacuum leaks.
That’s all I have atm.
Code 33 = ?

Re: Silverbullets' resto: Engine, gearbox, suspension
That’s a simple and awesome addition Silverbullet!
I can see the design “getting out of hand” - v2… like the Ute swag or the SS torana hatchback tent
Keep us posted how it goes. I hope the magnets are strong enough for a decent bit of wind when necessary.

Re: Red Targa Brumby
Brumby sorted Friday last week. Stoked! Drives well now! Took it out last night to photograph the Aurora Australis and was not disappointed. Brumby became the subject, whoops! Not sorry though. Didn’t pack a torch so the phone torch was used to fill in the brumby. Central Vic, 10:50-12:30am. Pretty ...

Re: Bantum's '05 Forester ...
How do you go about removing the glue after you complete your dent pulling? Hopefully it’s an easy task removing that glue.
Looking forward to some before and after pics!

Re: Brumby Ignition Module.
G’day Tezbo, If you have a dead ignition module, replace your coil too. A dead coil will take out the ignition module too. Ask me how I know… As for testing it, I’m unsure about that. The Haynes manual might give some insight or a Google search is the other option before enlisting an auto sparky - a...

Re: Red Targa Brumby
Yep rack end was cactus once it was fitted. It applies too much pressure on the ball joint in the rack end. Still waiting, not worried or pissed off, I know the mechanic’s it’s at drop everything for someone in need - they’re located on a busy intersection and seem to get a lot of business from cars...

Re: Red Targa Brumby
Last year, late November I fitted new ball joints, tie rod ends and rack ends. I finally got two new tyres and an alignment booked in for today. I hadn’t driven the brumby since the initial drive after all the work - alignment was WAY out, tyres were cactus so didn’t bother trying to fix it, just le...

Re: Ruby Scoo’s epic build, ten years and counting...
It won’t be a fun exercise that’s for sure. This could be where U pullit becomes your friend for sourcing the inner cups and matching races. At least you’ll be able to pull them apart and count the splines before buying them. I hope they work out for you. If you can work out the diff spline swap it ...

Re: Ruby Scoo’s epic build, ten years and counting...
Anything EJ that fits on the end of your MY shaft will net you an inner CV cup with 25 spline count. Getting the spline for the ball race and cage correct for your shafts is the painful bit. If there’s a shaft builder joint near you it could be worth the shot talking to them about what you need. Or ...

Re: Genuine alternatives for hub/bearings and axle shafts?
There really aren’t any - none as good as genuine OEM. No one wants to pay OEM prices though either! So far Repco drive shafts seem to work pretty good for the most part. I have two on the front of the brumby, probably have 20,000km on them. I replaced a boot recently as it was spraying grease every...
