Yessir

I have back up this time too, Team QLD may even take line honours (Not me but Evocam)

hmm....tempting, if im not entering Kandos Street machine and hotrod show I'll be there, wont find out for a little while though

Come on Chris gotta go mate and have some more fun like at Oran at the Mcgill day that was some pretty awesome sideways action going on. The zed should be sweet by then and running the slicks too

Should be a great day

Hi All,

I will be coming down with EVOCam (previously GTR Cam on these forums) from Brisbane. We will hopefully be staying at the track as after the long drive we will need as much rest as possible (Read while Cam sleeps I can finally have some Jack and coke as I will drive most of the way...).

Please come and say hi, we will have the EVO 8 MR with APC stickers and the silver Hilux with the plates Stuck Up...personal joke.

Should eb an awesome day. We went twice last year, first time with a black EVo 8 Aust delivered and then with the MR before melting a piston...

Hopefully this time we can have as much fun as the EVO days there (and yes I drive a skyline so I like to give the driver/mate a good ribbing!!!)

Cheers

Neill

    • 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.
    • Thanks for the replies everyone. Definitely a coolant push. Oil catch can is empty and always has been. As the engine is out now I'll be having a good look over things. I do have some detonation on the piston tops from a trigger issue back about 5 years ago. I felt it and shut off then bought a new ecu and changed the trigger. Never been an issue since. It never hurt the power, its made almost 80hp more since that incident but I will pull the bearing caps to take a look. If the bearings are damaged I will do a bottom end refresh. Head is being re conditioned at the moment and the block will be cleaned and checked to ensure it's flat. I'll go with a kameari gasket and see how it ends up. The other thing I'm not super keen on is the cylinder colours. I suspect this is from the inlet manifold. The plan will be to put it back together, retune and then stick a plazmaman billet inlet on it and retune. I'm happy with the power, if it makes a little more, then great, but I would rather just make everything more efficient at this stage.
    • Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...
    • Does it also misfire equally when revving?   Josh is very correct in what you should do. The coilpack harness wiring loom itself is a known problem due to its age and the number of heat cycles it has gone through. Throwing parts at a vehicle to diagnose the issue isn't a smart or good way to do it. Secondly, you may have a bad coil pack, you pop replacements in, they fix that issue, but messing with the harness breaks it, so the issue persists. So now you think "well it wasn't the coil packs" and have to continue chasing your tail, potentially swapping back in your shit coil packs and returning the good ones (yes, I've seen people do this because 'it wasn't the problem' and they want to save money). And suddenly, you've got two issues with the same symptoms...   Diagnose, don't use the spare parts shotgun.
