Hey ppls.

Well, it has finally come down to it and I need to sell my pride and joy.

You all know how much I love my car, and I make this decision with a heavy heavy heart. :laugh:

It has been serviced every 5k-7.5k kilometers and every 10-15ks I change all fluids, including diff and gearbox.

So you can see I've spent around $16k building a tough car.

I'm sure that I've spent more, and I'll add things I've done at the thread grows if required.

As you can see from the graph below, it's a solid performer.

Achievements

Dyno

250 rwkw, Race Pace Dyno (Chart Below)

It's a solid performer and will have a tune refresh before sale after I fixed the wastegate the other day.

Quarter Mile

12.9 @ 113 mph. The car is good for mids 12s with the right rubber.

Track

Winton

1.45:4 (when it had 200rwkw)

DECA, well, you know how it goes at DECA.

Will come with Road Worthy Certificate.

Price

$34,000

This price is very reasonable for a car with the amount of work which mine has had put into it.

I wash and was it regluarly, I drive it very sedatly on the roads, infact I've never gotten a speeding fine in this car.

Nothing has been left to chance on this car. If I though it needed something new, I just went and bought it. If something wore out, or needed replacing, I replaced it with the best.

Try to build it cheaper........

NO Test Pilots.

NOBODY will be driving my car until I see a deposit.

I will take you on as many drives as you want, but until you are going to front with the money, there will be no piloting.

    • Brooooo Please send ABS control unit schematic Please! R33 gts25t ABS (Its two plug ecu, black and white) wire colors possible? [email protected]
    • Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.
    • Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler
    • Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?
