Melbourne .. Shitload of weird words..

What do you call a street directory?

Why cant you call a schooner a schooner? FREAKS I JUST WANT A BEER! A BIG ONE!!

BUT!

So clean... Even ur junkie area is nice!

Its like living in the country but in a city .. Ur parks suck (I went for future music) and everyone drinks and drives (generalisation from what I found)

Sydney is shit house dirty but clubs pubs and everything are alot better.. Chiqs are way better down side is fully sik ulehs but sydney seems to have a better police officer in comparison to melb from what ive seen.

But Sydney wins .. its just the bomb .. melb can be boring .. good for a weekend away to get smashed but bout it

i was in melb last week, from thursday to sat, and it was my first time.

the roads are much wider, and the cars just flow, no traffic.

very friendly people, nice girls.

the greek area in the city lol :D

good shopping

free tram rides are cool

but im so used to sydney, the traffic, the rage on the roads, beaches, sydney city night life :P

Lived in both.... Melb is nicer place and a better place to live in general.

People are more friendly, atmosphere more relaxed, weather sucks but hey. The place is more organised, traffic is better.

Will end up back in Sydney soon; theres certainly alot more of Sydney I'd like to avoid when I'm back there.

I love Melbourne. Its just a more laid back place.

The only things I don't like about Melbourne are:

1. The wind

2. The cold

3. The road enforcement (no signs for fixed speed cameras, heavy handed police, small margins of error)

Aside from that, the city is tops.

I know you pretty well Liz, you dont exagerate, and you have an uncanny talent for guessing the temperature... so im guessing that actual windchill temp was within 1 or 2 degrees of what you said... which is fairly cold... im not living in a place that has a temp of about 10 million below absolute zero!

he's talking about the city circle tourist trams.. the brown ones that go around the edges of the CBD.. which are free.

the weather is one thing I love about melbourne. gives me a chance to wear some of the many, many jackets I have in the closet that can only be worn for about 1 week a year in sydney.

I like melbs. I like sydney too. I could happily live in either.

      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.

      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.
