they are plenty of nine second cars in the east that are street legal dude.i dont know the wa laws that well,nsw,old,vic probably have all different laws. :unsure:

There may well be plenty of cars that are street legal that do 8's 9's 10's, whatever.

This isnt one of them.

B0BB0 isnt only some dude who I once saw on the street then read about doing a 10, hes one of my best friends. I know the car isnt street legal for WA.

was there last wednesday and saw the run, congrats bobbo is one hell of a car... We were perplexed (pun intended) at the 10.26 @ 197 kph though, as to get a low 10 sec pass you'd need to be trapping at well over 23kph.. You missed 5th true but still to me doesn't explain the speed.. Did they stuff up the MPH perhaps? The ET is definitely correct...

EVL R33,

It's possible to have a low trap speed for the time if you didn't need to push the car to obtain it (car is capable of much faster times). I'd say given the slow terminal this thing has perhaps a mid 9 in it, with all things being somewhat equal.

Not any more, considering I saw it last night in WA.

Met the new owner Danny last night, top bloke, car is immaculate as well.

Yeah I was down there on the night also, 'Run Me' is definately here although sporting new plates...Car looks awesome!

Saw a few of Bobbos starts from pit lane, pretty damn impressive, made my 11 second pass.....okay okay 11.9 :) look like i was just driving to the shops :)

I think the low MPH was due to the miss of 5th gear, if you look at the vid on youtube you can see for approx 50m before the line the car is just rolling, hence i would have lost speed. thats what i put it down to.

      RB25DE NEO with Haltech ECU

      By Haggerty · Posted

      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.

      Could it really happen......

      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.

      What should I do next to hold the head on

      By Gareth87 · Posted

      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.
