ahh so it was you that had an argument with a roundabout? :laugh: lucky it was the work car then :laugh:

no it wasnt me. plus, with the work utes, i dont argue with things, they can just argue with my tray :nyaanyaa:

haha the tiida makes the 33 look small in the pic :nyaanyaa: shame the tiida's suck so bad. will have to upload all my video's of the shenanigans in the work tiida's, when they were straight off the truck :laugh: locked them in first (auto) crusing down brunswick st bout 50k's sitting on rev limiter with 17k's on the odo. i got it on video!

nah i would've gone for an impreza. bottom of the line is only bout 21k and tiida is about 20k

at least she got the hatch

It can stop raining now...

dont say that! i'm having fun in my work cars later. we have one rwd car and i'm gonna make the most of it. i never thought i'd say this, but i wish we had falcons and bommadores :nyaanyaa:

nope its a sedan and was 20K driveaway about 6 months ago (metallic paint and auto), i think they're doing them now for 17K with $1000 fuel

hmm these cars must get abused more by staff than the people that actually rent them :nyaanyaa:

:nyaanyaa: damn. oh well, at least they're comfy (sorta) and easy to drive, i guess :laugh:

Yeah, but I have to drive up the 'Sunny'coast, and my car is very tail happy. Which is all good and well on the track or whatever, but on the road its not.

thats where our giant "dirt" holding yard comes in handy. 250 square metres of open space :laugh: i think of it as my playground

:w00t: never! how could you acuse me of such a thing! would i ever do a thing like that :nyaanyaa: I dont abuse my work cars (or managers priviledges) i tenderly nurture them. it takes a fair bit of skill to blow the air box out while driving a brand new one, but you just have to know these things.

just sit there continuously kicking the accelerator making it change gears randomly. it would go from 4th to 2nd to 3rd to 2nd to 4th back to 2nd (all while crusing at 60) then bang! suddenly the car sounds like a v8. my colleague is pissing himself with laughter thinking i blew the exhaust out. we just parked it at the next office and left :nyaanyaa:

    • Have you done the Ignition Sync Wizard in the AEM software?
    • Find out what RPM it was idling at with the IACV unplugged. It's very weird that the rpm didn't change at all, and then it stalled. When it stalls is it nearly like a switch off, like you've turned the engine off? Or is it more stutters and sputters and coughs to death over a few seconds? Or does the RPM just slowly keep going down and down? Have you done a test of trying to start it with the AFM unplugged? Does it still die?     If you Follow Josh's advice on using Nistune to check the voltages (which is a perfect method!) if you see anything out of wack voltage wise, THEN get the multimeter out and read the voltage directly at the sensor. If the two vary, then you're now looking for a wiring issue vs a sensor issue. So be aware, what the ECU sees, may not be what the sensor is actually saying too...
    • 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.
