Hmm thats odd my cousin has a 2000 ss super charged and making 330rwkw and has almost 200 000 km on the clock, never a problem

some were ok, but alot had problems with oversized rings in them or something and that caused them to chew oil, they were going through 5L of oil every 1000Km. thats nasty, that is why holden had to rebuild there cars, and when they traded that on the new model r8, it blew up with in 5000km.

they werent happy, but they are still holden fans and wont buy any other cars......

yeah I heard about those problems!

yeah they got 2 of them how unlucky.....anyway apparently they have ironed them out, buut who knows.

the best piece of advice some1 said to me about buying a new car is wait till they release the series 2 bcoz if there is any faults they most likely have ironed them out by the series 2 models.

I want one

to be in keeping with the litreage jokes, heres a classic one, only cheap wines come in 5 litres.

btw, holdens are pos's never seen a car with as many problems as my dads 06' ss ute.

These radio DJs call two separate phone sex operators and tell them to hold while they go get their girlfriend who wants to chat. They then connect the two unsuspecting operators with each other. :huh:

Woohoo, PFC in and running...

Runs okay on the factory map, could be better, nifty little thing tho cutting out the injectors alltogether when you jump off the throttle and the car has enough momentum to go forward on its own... Hello fule econo...

i noticed a massive jump in mileage after the pfc - before i would get approx 360km per tank (ie: just before the fuel light would come on) and now i get about 450 mixed highway/traffic driving :huh:

    • Hello, sorry for being late to join the discussion, but my clock just died on me.   Ive tried to look at Michaels digital clock repair.docx and it doesnt work maybe the file has expired.   Please let me know if you can re upload it or take some youtube videos to show us how to get the clock installed? thanks
    • I thought that might be the case, thats what I'll start saving for. Thanks for the info 
    • Ps i found the below forum and it seems to be the same scenario Im dealing with. Going to check my ECU coolant temp wire tomorrow    From NICOclub forum: s1 RB25det flooding at start up Thu Apr 11, 2013 7:23 am I am completely lost on this. Car ran perfectly fine when I parked it at the end of the year. I took the engine out and painted the engine bay, and put a fuel cell with an inline walbro 255 instead of the in tank unit I had last year. After reinstalling everything, the engine floods when the fuel pump primes. if i pull the fuel pump fuse it'll start, and as soon as I put the fuse back in it starts running ridiculously rich. I checked the tps voltage, and its fine. Cleaned the maf as it had some dust from sitting on a shelf all winter, fuel pressure is correct while running, but wont fire until there is less than 5psi in the lines. The fuel lines are run correctly. I have found a few threads with the same problem but no actual explanation of what fixed it, the threads just ended. Any help would be appreciated.

I found the problem though. There was a break in one of the ecu coolant temp sensor wires. Once it was repaired it fired right up with no problems. I would have never thought a non working coolant temp sensor would have caused such an issue.
    • Hi sorry late reply I didnt get a chance to take any pics (my mechanics on the other side of the city) but the plugs were fouled from being too rich. I noticed the MAF wasn't genuine, so I replaced it with a genuine green label unit. I also swapped in a different ignitor, but the issue remains. I've narrowed it down a bit now: - If I unplug and reconnect the fuel lines and install fresh spark plugs, the car starts right up and runs perfectly. Took it around the block with no issues - As soon as I shut it off and try to restart, it won't start again - Fuel pressure while cranking is steady around 40 psi, injectors have good spray, return line is clear, and the FPR vacuum is working. It just seems like it's getting flooded after the first start I unplugged coolant sensors to see if its related to ECU flooding but that didnt make a difference. Im thinking its related to this because this issue only started happening after fixing coolant leaks and replacing the bottom part of the stock manifolds coolant pipe. My mechanic took off the inlet to get to get to do these repairs. My mechanics actually just an old mate who's retired now so ill be taking it to a different mechanic who i know has exp with RBs to see if they find anything. If you have any ideas please send em lll give it a try. Ive tried other things like swapping the injectors, fuel rail, different fuel pressure regs, different ignitor, spark plugs, comp test and MAF but the same issue persists.
    • My return flow is custom and puts the return behind the reo, instead of at the bottom. All my core is in the air flow, rather than losing some of it up behind the reo. I realise that the core really acts more as a spiky heatsink than as a constant rate heat exchanger, and that therefore size is important.... but mine fits everything I needed and wanted without having to cut anything, and that's worth something too. And there won't be a hot patch of core up behind the reo after every hit, releasing heat back into the intake air.
