I am organising a 4pm run up from my place in Port Melbourne.

I will see how much interest this gets but know of at least 3 people who are happy to come up who know where I live.

If you are interested in a 4pm departure from Port Melbourne which would equate to an approximately 4.30pm from Donnybrook Shell servo, let me know.

Details for a 4pm cruise up from the city

Shell Todd Rd, inbound

So far we have:

Khunjeng

Darren83

GTIRR

Me

If anyone wants to tag along from Donnybrook Shell, I estimate to be passing it no later than 4.45pm so suggestion would be for a 4.30pm meet time there for anyone else.

Anyone else interested, let me know. There will be other trips up but we fancy getting up there by 7pm ish.

Below are the details for the cruise up at 7.30pm on Friday night:

Straight up the Hume:

Where: Shell Roadhouse, Hume Hwy Donnybrook VIC 3064 (Melway 365 C5)

Meet Time: 7.30pm

FYI the NSW crew will be leaving Sydney at 10am, so we should arrive around the same time as you guys :)

:(

We leave Melb about 4pm, not arrive in Shepp by 4pm. You should be in Shep by 4-5pm the latest, see you at 7-8pm :)

Wayne, you have already lost the race :)

After a little more rational thinking in the light of day, lets say the Todd Rd Services city bound (i.e NOT the one on the side before you hit the Westgate but the one you go into as soon as you come over the Westgate. There are several ways into it without going over the Westgate but it at least puts us at the bottom of the ramp up to the Tulla.

4pm for a 4.15 departure there :)

Done; Paul you'll be right with Craig?

Just phoned Dave, he is bringing the GTO as he hasn't driven it enough and wants to give it a good run; I reakon he wants to show off his 8hr detail :D (he's gonna slap me if he reads this).

So we'll meet you all at Donnybrook Shell at 4:30pm (ish)

      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

      By Duncan · Posted

      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...
