Hey all

Selling my 1989 180sx

CA18DET

5 speed manual

Resprayed Burgundy/Purple pearl with a 94 model front bumper

18" Chrome wheels

Stereo

Exhaust

BOV

Needs new clutch atm as the standard item is finally dieing, but im willing to get it replaced for the buyer.

Previous owner has replaced the old CA18DET with the one that is currently in it as it was in better condition.

Now the fun part, im looking for around $10500 but that is definately negotiable, as i said im willing to get the clutch replaced at my cost. The engine itself only has a pod filter and bov i may have a turbosmart bleed valve somewhere for it but id have to look. Anyone interested feel free to give me a call on my mobile or pm me.

M: 0401 647 423 Before 11:00am or After 8:00pm

Edit: Forgot to mention its booked in for a full service this thursday and will get a comp test done whilst its there.

hey dude not trying to offend or anything but would you take 8k ?

Hey esky, all good not offended at all, $8000 is a bit low many of the parts have been recently replaced such as clutch, and boost gauge etc. However i am always willing to work something out, drop me a pm if you or anyone else that may be interested have any questions.

PS. all tyres are in more than road worthy condition with in my opinion about 90% tread left. Also have coilovers fitted to the rear of the vehicle at the same height pictured.

    • I saw you mention this earlier and it raised a red flag, but I couldn't believe it was real. Yes, the vacuum signal should vary. It is the one and only load signal from the engine to the ECU, and it MUST vary. It is either not connected or is badly f**ked up in some way.
    • @Haggerty you still haven't answered my question.  Many things you are saying do not make sense for someone who can tune, yet I would not expect someone who cannot tune to be playing with the things in the ECU that you are.  This process would be a lot quicker to figure out if we can remove user error from the equation. 
    • If as it's stalling, the fuel pressure rises, it's saying there's less vacuum in the intake manifold. This is pretty typical of an engine that is slowing down.   While typically is agree it sounds fuel related, it really sounds fuel/air mixture related. Since the whole system has been refurbished, including injectors, pump, etc, it's likely we've altered how well the system is delivering fuel. If someone before you has messed with the IACV because it needed fiddling with as the fuel system was dieing out, we need to readjust it back. Getting things back to factory spec everywhere, is what's going to help the entire system. So if it idles at 400rpm with no IACV, that needs raising. Getting factory air flow back to normal will help us get everything back in spec, and likely help chase down any other issues. Back on IACV, if the base idle (no IACV plugged in) is too far out, it's a lot harder for the ECU to control idle. The IACV duty cycle causes non linear variations in reality. When I've tuned the idle valves in the past, you need to keep it in a relatively narrow window on aftermarket ecus to stop them doing wild dances. It also means if your base idle is too low, the valve needs to open too much, and then the smallest % change ends up being a huge variation.
    • I guess one thing that might be wrong is the manifold pressure.  It is a constant -5.9 and never moves even under 100% throttle and load.  I would expect it to atleast go to 0 correct?  It's doing this with the OEM MAP as well as the ECU vacuum sensor. When trying to tune the base map under load the crosshairs only climb vertically with RPM, but always in the -5.9 column.
    • AHHHH gotchaa, I'll do that once I am home again. I tried doing the harness with the multimeter but it seems the car needed a jump, there was no power when it was in the "ON" position. Not sure if I should use car battery jump starter or if its because the stuff that has been disconnect the car just does send power.
