Seeing as I have the privelage of being in Tokyo and im surrounded by all types of car exotica i have decided to start a little thread of my own based solely upon the crazy cars i come across.

This wont be solely focussed on nissans cause beauty comes in all shapes and sizes doesnt it?

enjoy.

I work in Akihabara and see nice cars all the time in this part of tokyo..but some are beyond description...

like this for example.

all these photos are being taken with my trusty and powerful 5 MP sharp phone. Not bad i think you will agree. I bought the camera and a phone came with it. :)

Two days in a row and this time its on a WRX! Akihabara does strange things to people. Otaku is a word that springs to mind..

literally 10 metres away was this very poor looking R34 GTR. The thing obviously wasnt being looked after.... :(

post-33653-1181281479_thumb.jpg...tacky and very crappy stickers..

post-33653-1181281447_thumb.jpg..although it did have a carbon rear diffuser...

not too bad in this light...post-33653-1181281582_thumb.jpg

.....and 10 meters down from where the GTR was there was a very nice Carlsson SL Merc.. all in spitting distance from my office. I was too slow to get a shot of the M5 that drove past while i was taking pics of this..

Yea nice.

What and where do you race?

a superkart. Fujinomiya isnt exactly the best track for it..its only 780 meters but the back straight is about half of that..the little thing gets up around 130 and still has plenty to go...

      RB25DE NEO with Haltech ECU

      By feartherb26 · Posted

      If you take the top half of the intake off you can unbolt the flap off the shaft and leave the shaft in there blocking the hole. Then you can remove the little vacuum canister off from under the manifold and get a spare vacuum line to run to the ECU. I can take some photos of it later. Probably best to get the vacuum source to the ECU sorted first though. Mine all worked mint with the base map from the GTT an I've pretty much let the closed loop sort the fueling and took 1 degree out of the whole timing map.

      This IS something you also have to configure in Haltech (or at least I did in the past when going from onboard-to-ECU map sensor and an external MAP sensor in haltech land).

      I'm hoping it's something as simple as the ECU is looking for an external MAP sensor, but he is trying to use the onboard MAP sensor.

      You won't need to do that if your happy to learn to tune it yourself. You 100% do not need to do that. It is not part of the learning process. It's not like driving on track and 'finding the limit by stepping over the limit'. You should not ever accidently blow up an engine and you should have setup the ECU's engine protection to save you from yourself while you are learning anyway. Plenty of us have tuned their own cars, myself included. We still come here for advice/guidance/new ideas etc.  What have you been doing so far to learn how to tune?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Put the ECU's MAP line in your mouth. Blow as hard as you can. You should be able to see about 10 kPa, maybe 15 kPa positive pressure. Suck on it. You should be able to generate a decent vacuum to about the same level also. Note that this is only ~2 psi either way. If the MAP is reading -5 psi all the time, ignition on, engine running or not, driving around or not, then it is severely f**ked. Also, you SHOULD NOT BE DRIVING IT WITHOUT A LOAD REFERENCE. You will break the engine. Badly.
