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.

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      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.

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By Kapr · Posted

      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)?

      Hi.. Just another problem. So maybe you can help. I(my mechanic) done swap from my RB20DE NEO to RB25DET NEO. Everything is OK but we have a boost cut. Coils/Plugs are ok...AFM is ok. ECU is ok. I have Walbro 255 but it "changed" sound few months ago(you can hear it ouside) you did not hear that when it was new(maybe faulty?) Sooo...what now? What can cause this boost cut? It is even when you standing still...
