Hey did any one see today tonight tonight LOL...

With the Dvd that the RAC wants banned because it is suppose to promote street racing and all the other rigmorole included. It never showed or told the name of the dvd/video what it was because they didnt want to get sued i spose :P.

Why should it be banned most people in there modified cars usually drive senisiably? Though i spose there is a few that do bugger it up for the rest of us..

I mean i usually drive resposiable when im on the road, i dont see why people have too suffer for others acts.

just my 2 cents lol....

Always the same old story though. Media and government will always hound modified cars and their owners. Nothing we can do about it just be sensible yourself and keep your car legal and you won't have to worry so much. If the dvd is showing Illegal activities in this country then it will no doubt be taken off the shelves here but may still be available in other countries....

It's a stupid idea of TT to even bring it up. It didn't look like an Australian production and there are scores of drift dvds available. Perhaps they should ban initial d? Perhaps they should ban Chuck Norris because it encourages roundhouse kicks? Perhaps they should ban themselves because they are a derisive attitude and manipulative reporting makes the program a joke.

Did you see the preview for the following nights show - "Us vs. Them - Foreign enclaves on Australian soil". Great topic to bring up guys.

      RB25DE NEO with Haltech ECU

      You very likely need to get it on a dyno and tune it. My assumption is, you've got an RB25DET tune in it, which has a different manifold, different injectors, and different cams as a minimum. What O2 sensor are you running?   When you say it runs extremely rich from idle all the way to redline, is this just free revving it you see that?

      RB25DE NEO with Haltech ECU

      By Haggerty · Posted

      I seem to the be only person that is using a Haltech 2500 on an NA motor, I've installed a Bosch DBW throttle body to the OEM intake manifold and am having problems maintaining AFR even with the wideband o2.  It will run extremely rich at idle and up to redline, but under load it will go extremely lean in the 20s and i'm essentially having to rev it over 4k and feather the clutch to get it up to speed.  I've read a few other threads of about the butterfly, it seems removing the vacuum to it is supposed to have it remain open, i've noticed no difference under 4k with the vacuum line to it plugged.  I'm hoping someone here has had luck using the NA manifold with Haltech, and if they happen to have a tune for it.

      I don't know any details, but I really wouldn't be surprised if they do it as a LHD only version, at least initially.

      What should I do next to hold the head on

      By Gareth87 · Posted

      Thanks for the replies everyone. Definitely a coolant push. Oil catch can is empty and always has been. As the engine is out now I'll be having a good look over things. I do have some detonation on the piston tops from a trigger issue back about 5 years ago. I felt it and shut off then bought a new ecu and changed the trigger. Never been an issue since. It never hurt the power, its made almost 80hp more since that incident but I will pull the bearing caps to take a look. If the bearings are damaged I will do a bottom end refresh. Head is being re conditioned at the moment and the block will be cleaned and checked to ensure it's flat. I'll go with a kameari gasket and see how it ends up. The other thing I'm not super keen on is the cylinder colours. I suspect this is from the inlet manifold. The plan will be to put it back together, retune and then stick a plazmaman billet inlet on it and retune. I'm happy with the power, if it makes a little more, then great, but I would rather just make everything more efficient at this stage.

      Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...
