radiator cap decided to come off...fingers crossed i shut it down in time ;)

Aww no... :) Should be alright though if you shut it down nice and quick, it wouldn't have had time to boil

Compression test ftw

wat, u didnt put it back on properly?

unfortunately i think thats what did it. i checked the level b4 i ehaded to dave's the other nite, and possibly didnt put it back on properly ;)

indeed. got the old fella on the way with my tools

wherebouts are you? i'm about to head from logan back to murarrie

im currently at work in milton, dont worry isaac i've got dad coming with my tools, water, coolant, compression tester etc

shane....

u got the tools to do engine compression testing, etc?

certianly do...

by tools i meant my socket set, a few screw drivers and the compression gauge. remember rb25's arent as easy as rb26's, u gotta take the cross over pipe off on the 25's

oh well good luck, i last did mine a couple of months ago and got readings of around 140-150psi with a slightly warm motor.

Yeah the crossover pipe is ghey. I have removal of that bit of piping down to a fine art though lol

    • 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.
