Thanks Sean, I will make another call. That dude must not have been too interested in selling me a car..

Jono,

Either call Ben or Vas, i had Ben over at my yard yesterday i told him i had a mate keen on an 86 he said there's one here to test drive but the wait is currently 3 months for the base model and 2 years for the GT-S or whatever the one is with the bodykit and spoiler.

Ben - 0400 422 628

Vasili - 0400 251 725

They will both help you out man.

Thanks mate, as soon as I get a chance I will organise something with one of these guys.

About oils earlier too, A mate sent me an interesting test of all oils. Seems Royal Purple and Penrite seem to be the best in these particular tests.

BENNY BOY THESE ARE H BEAM RODS MATE :domokun:

I think once i'm finally off these P plates i'll look for a tidy S15. Seems to be a shit load of SR20 bits and peices reasonably accessible and cheap rather than turning the V35 FI or throwing a Vortech on it.

thats why u mod cars lol... to be different. in saying that if u dont wanna spend BULK cash then yes lightly mod an S15, theres parts everywhere for them

Yeah there isn't many V35's in Aus that are Turbo'd or Supercharged so it would be interesting, but the only real downfall with my car is that there isn't a lot of people in the country that know a great deal about them and parts almost always have to be sourced from Japan/USA.

I still have 12 months.. so i got plenty of time to decide!

    • If you take the top half of the intake off you can unbolt the flap off the shaft and leave the shaft in there blocking the hole. Then you can remove the little vacuum canister off from under the manifold and get a spare vacuum line to run to the ECU. I can take some photos of it later. Probably best to get the vacuum source to the ECU sorted first though. Mine all worked mint with the base map from the GTT an I've pretty much let the closed loop sort the fueling and took 1 degree out of the whole timing map.
    • This IS something you also have to configure in Haltech (or at least I did in the past when going from onboard-to-ECU map sensor and an external MAP sensor in haltech land).
    • I'm hoping it's something as simple as the ECU is looking for an external MAP sensor, but he is trying to use the onboard MAP sensor.
    • You won't need to do that if your happy to learn to tune it yourself. You 100% do not need to do that. It is not part of the learning process. It's not like driving on track and 'finding the limit by stepping over the limit'. You should not ever accidently blow up an engine and you should have setup the ECU's engine protection to save you from yourself while you are learning anyway. Plenty of us have tuned their own cars, myself included. We still come here for advice/guidance/new ideas etc.  What have you been doing so far to learn how to tune?
    • Put the ECU's MAP line in your mouth. Blow as hard as you can. You should be able to see about 10 kPa, maybe 15 kPa positive pressure. Suck on it. You should be able to generate a decent vacuum to about the same level also. Note that this is only ~2 psi either way. If the MAP is reading -5 psi all the time, ignition on, engine running or not, driving around or not, then it is severely f**ked. Also, you SHOULD NOT BE DRIVING IT WITHOUT A LOAD REFERENCE. You will break the engine. Badly.
