Honestly I've been driving it around all weekend and today and am having serious 2nd thoughts. Especially after my fang at lunch time today. It was feeling really sweet now that the Autronic tune is just about sorted.

*sigh* - it's all so hard.

:P

I have three letters

GOR

Cast your mind back, you know you wanna keep it

buy an evo they are the only things that can beat a gtr.

targa regs are standard everything except brakes, coilovers and ecu. standard exhaust, turbos, injectors, afms, fuel pump to name a few. some people choose to bend/push/break the rules. if you want to see the full details check out M2 in the tarmac rally rules

Just do what your doing now, see if you get an offer, if not continue to have fun with it :) If you get an offer then stress about it then.

That was the plan. Infact I only put the for sale thread up because of the fact that I was approached by this Targa dude first and it got me thinking.

A big part of me really wants to keep the car and:

a) Beat Jack and Aaron next year.

b) Win the Dutton Rally.

c) Beat Lowth and Scotsman @ DECA

But if the right offer comes along I'll still be trying to do a), b) and c) but just in something new. :)

Sounds like a plan :)

I would say there is only one car in Australia you can confidently say you could do that in. Sell yours and buy Beno's car. I'd put my hand up to takes Scotsman place as co-driver,, providing I never had to be in the car with you driving...

Just ask him to put some Magnetic Fields on to "sooth" the fear! :)

Where'd be the fun if it was going to be easy?

Haha - well I'm actually doing the Dutton National series next year with Blaise (well we are doing NSW, WA and Vic which is enough rounds to make us eligable for the National Championship) but consequently Scotsman is looking for a co-driver for Vic if you want to come play again in 07.

      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

      Strange issue RB25DET wont start

      By jtha7 · Posted

      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. Rb25det s1 walbro255 fuel pump nismo fpr holset hx35 turbo fmic 3" exhaust freddy intake manifold q45tb q45 maf   Re: s1 RB25det flooding at start up Fri Apr 12, 2013 5:07 am No, I didn't. 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.

      Strange issue RB25DET wont start

      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.
