Sitting at traffic lights today, behind some hick in a jacked up '85ish Patrol with mud up to the windows...... for NO reason at all the f**ker reverses about 6-8 feet fast enough to chirp his rears, I had time to think" f**k!! " and chuck the R in reverse and try & get outa the road...... and he tags me good and proper..... :yes:

Damage..... Bonnet stuffed, grille cracked, passenger guard dented, Vspec lip stuffed......

looks like im getting that carbon bonnet a little sooner than planned! :D:D

Still cant figure out why he wanted to go backwards in such a hurry, my first thought was deliberate, but he was keen to get it settled & sorted out once we got to the side street...... i mean i barely had time to react.....

hey this happened to one guy in my team last week. some retart just decided to reverse at the lights??

anyway they exchanged details and then he changed his story and said my mate ran into him...which to tell u the truth sounded more legit...anyway lucky for some witnesses and the cops got involved...

hehe

as it happens I work in a position where its possible to see certain things...turns out he owned some money and hadn't passed on his new address...hehe we made sure the debt collectors knew where to find him!

classic...

Hey Rod, sure it wasn't Emre :thumbsup: He's into SUV's now isn't he?

There's nothing worse than some scumbag changing their story so get them to draw a diagram on the spot and sign and date.

Chris, has that guy got a tax debt my wife should know about? :ermm:

      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?
