So not much has happened with the car since my last post. Put a bit over 3000kms on it which was mostly trouble free. Swapped a welsh plug that was leaking. I updated the main battery to starter lead with a 0 gauge wire. Cranks like it should now except solenoid is a bit worn so need to replace it. ...

Thanks for the help so far guys. I have been to two seperate paint shops with a photo of the id plate and according to thier systems my paint is silver. I ended up picking a color by eye from thier chart for the top half. It is much darker but i like it so it will do. The bottom half i picked a slig...

Cheers for that. Ive found some touch up that is a very close match which will do the trick. Love the idea for the clutch tube. Will trynand get some photos when i do it to post up.
Yet to look at the lights. Its on my list haha

The adjustability sounds good lol. Yea they also came out in blue on silver aswell. That was the model i originally wanted, there was a little old lady drove one ine perth. Was immaculate manual and probably low kms to. Only ever saw it ince a week to get groceries. Wonder where it ended up :think:

Cheers. Im gonna try the connectors tomorrow and see if that works. Will just weld a tube i think i wanna limit the welding lol

Hey guys i have finally resumed work on my super saloon. I have some puzzling issues. With the gj headlights i have the main low beam high beam bulb in the rectangle. What are the round lights next to the grill? Mine dont work and haven't since i bought the car. Second is the paint codes. Does berg6...

Thanks sigmaproject I've found my spare gauges so I can use the spares. this week I updated a few things re wired starter cos it still has cranking issues I think I need a reduction starter any ideas which starter I need one from a tr? Also did some browsing of sigma galant and found a thread about ...

so been a few months with the efi even became the daily for my wife for a week when her discovery 33had to ggo in. She grovelled but admitted she did enjoy booting it up the road cos it was manual and had some poke to it haha she clearly had to much fun when I received a picture of the car from the ...

Just an update and hoping someone could shed some light on a new problem. All running sweet waiting to find a new dizzy, currently adjusted at the dizzy to run more thanks 20 deg btdc to get it to run with as much punch as possible I don't think it's advancing with acceleration. problem I have is si...

I run premium with a turbo fuel pump Run from the control relay. The exhaust has a apexi can on the rear standard centre muffler and pipe with extractors. Relatively sure the tps or dizzy at fault and isc motor isn't working either just got the multi meter out haha

Hey 84gksig thanks for that I previously had ego running on a astronomy 1 block with the magna head,worked ok but felt flat through the revs. This motor is the gn motor with efi runs smooth but even slower than the low comp motor. I think the tps or cas is not working properly. Going to do some test...

Hey guys sorted the cranking issues. Swapped starter motor and always cranked but lacked power put a second positive lead from battery(relocated to boot) works a treat now. old starter had a bad solenoid that didn't always work. Onto my timing, still annoying me,discovered an air leak at intake, sea...

Hey sigmaproject turned the key 2 days later am slow cranking but was ok been fine up until the last few days slow cranking or just clicks or nothing at all voltage at battery ok but when cranking drops to 9.5 volt will turn a few times then spin fast an fire. Tried coil lead an no improvement. I've...

I will be testing it just have to find the wire and my led light not difficult to find if I back probe the ecu so glad I had a tr manual and a sigma mqanual haha

Thanks for that I set it to that sounds right but still gutless and adjusted one way it pinged the other it was even flatter. Set to 5 deg btdc then found the sweet spot much better but I think the dizzy isn't advancing and that's why it feels flat will post results in my building thread when I've s...

Fully charged battery had slow cranking and wasn'. Flat flat starter motor went from working to dead at the solenoid overnight gonna pull it and bench test it, at this point I'm extremely unlucky 2nd bad starter doing efi lol thanks for the help will keep you posted

Ah ok cool had a fiddle tonight there power from key at starter solinoid but nothing so gonna drop starter out an bench test it got a spare that works so will give it a go

Hey scorpma82 the dizzy isn't advancing timing so it's getting replaced can it really kill cranking I added an extra earth with little success motor was cranking with carb efi is what slowed it down was running ok last night this morning not even a click at starter battery low so it's on charge now.

I have it now has the manual gauges from the donor car being so original it had the original manual in the glove box with all the lil services done like new diff gearbox battery etc so I have continued this with body km's when fitted motor kms when fitted etc. It is running gutless at the moment I t...

Ok guys got the efi on the gn motor. This is the second motor the efi has been paired to. It starts runs drives but it seemed a bit gutless I have re set timing to 5 deg before tdc and wiggled the dizzy to its love spot going one end it pings badly under load and the other end of dizzy adjuster it d...

http://rs44.pbsrc.com/albums/f22/ilostthree/Mobile%20Uploads/sigmadiagram_zpssg4oqogr.png~320x480?t=1429848929 I joined black an yellow from plug a an control unit under dash then joined to ignition switch black and white from plug a to ignition switch an yellow and red from plug a to battery with ...

Ok an update it's running but still drops idle randomly and seems a bit gutless going put sports exhaust on to open it up a bit more and injector cleaner to start off. the throttle cable I bought a new motorbike brake cable then measured to length cut then soldered a ball on the end. Just drill a ho...

Hey cottees mine is up and running just a little gutless just wondering what timing u run?
Cheers

Ok motor is in http://s44.photobucket.com/user/ilostthree/media/Mobile%20Uploads/IMAG0520_zpszabkucps.jpg.html?filters[user]=141845044&filters[recent]=1&sort=1&o=0 Bracket for the gearbox mount this car was auto so mount is further forward so I made to flat bits of bar on each side , one...

Hey cottees got my motor in just curious about the ballast resistor did you chop this out ? Original wiring in engine bay did you just leave it all there? Just looks untidy. Getting excited.

Hey guys into a efi swap into a gj ss can anyone shed some light on wiring in the engine bay. What old carby wiring can be removed? I know the box to power the dizzy can but the old coil wires etc can they go? And the ballast resistor, can it all be chopped or will I lose power at ignition? Cheers

New motor isn't in yet that is the original motor overheating has a blown head. All I have done is put fuel in it since I got it haha just put the clutch on the gn motor today. Few things to do yet trying to do it all properly I plan on keeping this one love it so nice to drive.
