Well my Evo VII went to its new home today...... Question is, what do I get next???

Im kinda wanting to have a break for a while, I love my import cars, but I'm a bit over it right now. Dont really want to jump straight back into something just yet.

Anyway.... Suggestions??

That's a nice looking evo you had mate.

Anyway, what to get next? Why not go VIP style if you're into that thing. Get a bit of a break from performance, getting faster lap times and go for a good cruiser? If not that, get a house if you don't already have one.

Depends on what you like I guess.

Ash - Yeah kinda just made up my mind & did it, wanted to pay a chunk off the house too......

Alan - I thought it would of sold quicker too, bloke who bought it couldnt believe the cond it was in & how well it had been cared for.... and yes, I love that shape too!

Warren & Ronin09 - 350GT & 350Z are on the test drive list....... not sure if im all that keen to go buy something yet but it'll be a fun way to spend a Saturday morning!

Arch - I think I miss teh powa!!!! Dont miss the bills though!

Snowy - Nah I really liked it, had a lot going for it & it was white... (I love white cars ) but other things are more important in 2007 than the Evo. Like owning my home quicker! :blink:

Troy - They just look sooo tough in silver hey! Pity I cant steer as good as you can in yours!

Im a bit keen on driving an F6 Typhoon, I like the idea of a Luxo barge tweaked to 350+ rwkw......

Only GTR I would consider is a late model '34 in Grey, but im not sure I could keep from playing with it! Price sorta rules that one out right now.

Evo IX is awesome value.

350GT I like alot too.

350Z ive never driven, but my ex boss has a Black manual Track I could have a fang in no doubt.

VE Clubsport Ive driven, liked it too.

MY06 Sti ive lived with for a week a few months back, styling didnt grow on me. Drove good though. HID's FTW!!!!

What else is there? Anything ive forgotten?

Found it. Sell the stoopid house, dont need clothes either, so hock them at the Salvos to help pay for the just as stoopid car. As for eating, just rack stuff from the servo when the attendant is out having a hand feed over your new car :blink:

    • The attached document is fine. I just downloaded & opened it.
    • Hello, sorry for being late to join the discussion, but my clock just died on me.   Ive tried to look at Michaels digital clock repair.docx and it doesnt work maybe the file has expired.   Please let me know if you can re upload it or take some youtube videos to show us how to get the clock installed? thanks
    • I thought that might be the case, thats what I'll start saving for. Thanks for the info 
    • Ps i found the below forum and it seems to be the same scenario Im dealing with. Going to check my ECU coolant temp wire tomorrow    From NICOclub forum: s1 RB25det flooding at start up Thu Apr 11, 2013 7:23 am I am completely lost on this. Car ran perfectly fine when I parked it at the end of the year. I took the engine out and painted the engine bay, and put a fuel cell with an inline walbro 255 instead of the in tank unit I had last year. After reinstalling everything, the engine floods when the fuel pump primes. if i pull the fuel pump fuse it'll start, and as soon as I put the fuse back in it starts running ridiculously rich. I checked the tps voltage, and its fine. Cleaned the maf as it had some dust from sitting on a shelf all winter, fuel pressure is correct while running, but wont fire until there is less than 5psi in the lines. The fuel lines are run correctly. I have found a few threads with the same problem but no actual explanation of what fixed it, the threads just ended. Any help would be appreciated.

I found the problem though. There was a break in one of the ecu coolant temp sensor wires. Once it was repaired it fired right up with no problems. I would have never thought a non working coolant temp sensor would have caused such an issue.
    • Hi sorry late reply I didnt get a chance to take any pics (my mechanics on the other side of the city) but the plugs were fouled from being too rich. I noticed the MAF wasn't genuine, so I replaced it with a genuine green label unit. I also swapped in a different ignitor, but the issue remains. I've narrowed it down a bit now: - If I unplug and reconnect the fuel lines and install fresh spark plugs, the car starts right up and runs perfectly. Took it around the block with no issues - As soon as I shut it off and try to restart, it won't start again - Fuel pressure while cranking is steady around 40 psi, injectors have good spray, return line is clear, and the FPR vacuum is working. It just seems like it's getting flooded after the first start I unplugged coolant sensors to see if its related to ECU flooding but that didnt make a difference. Im thinking its related to this because this issue only started happening after fixing coolant leaks and replacing the bottom part of the stock manifolds coolant pipe. My mechanic took off the inlet to get to get to do these repairs. My mechanics actually just an old mate who's retired now so ill be taking it to a different mechanic who i know has exp with RBs to see if they find anything. If you have any ideas please send em lll give it a try. Ive tried other things like swapping the injectors, fuel rail, different fuel pressure regs, different ignitor, spark plugs, comp test and MAF but the same issue persists.
