I can tell the sound of a RB25DET and a blitz BOV from a mile away :D

nah, just ive heard them alot and can recognise what they sound like quite easily... hmmmm... maybe it was that black R33 down the road but it usually dont come past my house and it dont sound like that... sounds quieter (stock exhaust, bov n ****)

insurance assesor just came over and looked at the car..

he said he'll ring me either later today or tomorrow abd let me know which quote to go with..

he said at the moment it gonna be "glossip st. smash"

and i asked what they were gonna do..

they are gonna send for the same front bar from japan!!!!

ffs this is gonna take AGES till they get it here and fixed!

check this oout..

i took my car in to a bodykit place to pick a front bar for it..

i was thinking of a 400r bar..

when i said that to the little asain dude he flipped... :lol:

hes like "wtf this is a genuine nizmo kit!! u cant just throw it away.. i fix for u ill fix it and prime it by monday (i took it in thurs)"

i was like wtf?

he said those kits were expansive as fck and heaps hard to get..

so im like kool ill keep it :):D

he took the front bar off straight away and sure enough there was the nizmo sighn on the back of the bar..

so this explains why i have nizmo badges where the GT badge is supposed to be.. ;):)

na the insurance company had to chose the place

its glossip st. smash (across the road from where i got the paint job quote mark..)

then they refered me to steven's presteige body shop. who reconised the bar and are gonna fix it.. actually the bar should be done and primmed by now ..

now i gotta take the car back to smash place and get them to fix the bonned and bar support (which is WAY more bent then i could imagine! :lol: ) then theyre gonna spray and fit the bar again..

:lol:

then im gonna roll again.. :P :uh-huh:

    • 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?
    • 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.
    • 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...
