  1. Escorts and old dattos are lots of things, but cheap and reliable they aint, if you want to belt them around a race track. Maybe 20 years ago, but there are plenty of better options for the budget conscious these days.

    this. i've actually got a 1600 in my shed, already has good suspension and brakes, needs a new motor. and i'm still debating if it would be cheaper to use a s13 or similar.

  2. Depends on what you want to do with engine. If you want a high reving engine for dragracing use (above 6400rpm) and need more rpm points (where ignition timing, amount of fuel injected changes) above 6400rpm, Haltech or PowerFC would be a better choice. If road / racetrack engine and not going to rev above 6400rpm, stock ECU will do the job. Also some aftermarket ECU's like Motec ECU for example is suited to competition use and can change troublesome sensors (CAS, etc) which can't be done with stock ECU, PowerFC ECU (have to run stock sensors, etc). Except for AFM that can be changed to Z32 AFM, etc. Also aftermarket ECU's have onboard boost control, launch control, etc. Just too many features to list.

    Usually more rpm points = rpm points closer together and result's in a smoother reving engine due to engine doesn't struggle to rev between rpm points, but takes longer to tune which cost's you $$$.

    Stock ECU with 6400rpm / 16 rpm points = rpm point every 400rpm.

    PowerFC with 6400rpm / 20 rpm points = rpm point every 320rpm.

    Haltech ECU with 6400rpm / 32 rpm points = rpm point every 200rpm

    Motec ECU with 6400rpm / 40 rpm points = rpm point every 160rpm.

    Can see why Motec ECU is popular on dragracing, racecar, etc engines.

    If engine is RB25DET, Haltech, Link or Vi-PEC ECU. Motec ECU if you have the $$$$.

    the load points in my gtr where 125rpm right the way to the 8500rpm rev limit using the wolf v500 :D

    wolf v500

    there very awesome i know at least 10 dudes running them and they have no complaints

    i had nothing but praise when i was running the wolf, same with my mechanic, he previously recomended haltecs but has since made the switch.

    i changed from a power fc to a wolf v500 and the biggest difference i noticed was the power and revs seemed so much smoother, and was much quicker to rev. (i changed nothing else at all)

    can't comment about the older wolfs. and am lucky to use a guy who really knows his stuff with them

  4. when i had my gtr motor rebuilt the only extra (performance) work done was a bit of porting, port matched manifolds and a set of 264/272 cams, can't remember the lift but only a little above stock.

    i found that full boost came on a little earlier (maybe 200rpm) made 40kw more at the wheels and the responce on and off throttle was better. this was with -5's. curious if i could have had a better cam choice.

    as far as off boost responce, well i was making positive pressure by 2000-2200 and 8psi by 3, from there it came on a bit slower but very linear.

  5. Maybe for what *you* pay...not for what *I* pay though :happy:

    ooohh what do you pay? either way i'd prefer a glenfiditch glenfarqs (sp?) etc, i much prefer a single malt, actually tried some really good ones at the food and wine festival on sunday.

    but yes a 0.00 blood alchahol limit won't have any significant, if noticable at all effect on the road toll, so why do it?

  6. I drink Scotch and Bourbon pretty much exclusively....why, not because "I want to drink" but because I like the flavour of them and the way it compliments food, and you’ll find there are few people out there that appreciate some blue label etc etc for the taste, certainly not to get blitzed on a $200+ a bottle spirit.

    for what you pay, blue label is poo.

  7. ok put my down as a definate maybe. i'm gonna try to get out. my mate who's coming to the concert reckons he'll drive me in. so as long as i'm not too f**ked (got mosh tickets) i'll be there sometime.

  8. ok so what happens after the last venue, cause that's still pretty early

    i've just realised i have a concert to go to that night and i'm trying to figure out how to go to both.
