Sigh, well somone smashed the window on my baby tonight in the work carpark :) but they didnt take anything or go through anything so i assume the alarm scared them off, wouldnt suprise me if it was some pokie fiend looking for coin. Happened in the last 45mins a(around 12:30)of work as i checked on it a few times before then.

Exact same thing happened to me about a month ago.

Broad daylight on a friday afternoon in my work carpark in a very nearby suburb to where yours happened.

Pager alarm went off, and by the time I got downstairs was time enough for them to get back into their stolen (according to police) maroon r32 (I took the rego plate details), which I saw leaving the scene in a very suspisious manner.

I got a new window from import spares (sleaford rd, windsor gardens) for $110, and fitted it myself.

It pays to ring around, as prices varied to double what I ended up paying.

Not a hard job, but also not much skin left on my knuckles afterwards.

Worst part is that there seems no way of easing this spate of import break-ins.

Police say that they have caught the people responsible, and then guess what.....

Sorry to hear that mate, I can empathise, Deluxe and I were recently victims too literally in our own backyard in the same area. We got off with damaged doors.

Damn this stupid shit!!

Don't leave your cars in that area people! i remember seeing a silver/white(it was night time) 32 follow me into my street and almost watch me reverse into my driveway! I just thought it might have been one of you guys coming to say "Bloody G'Day" but when i got out of my car, the 32 took off slowly! I did put it up into the spotted section but with no reply, so now after reading this i thing they either have lines themselves or steal them to get to another one!

So if there is some scetchy suss c#$t in a Skyline checking you out more than what he/she should be, go smash thier heads in and go from there.....lol

    • Did and sync timing with light 
    • Have you done the Ignition Sync Wizard in the AEM software?
    • Find out what RPM it was idling at with the IACV unplugged. It's very weird that the rpm didn't change at all, and then it stalled. When it stalls is it nearly like a switch off, like you've turned the engine off? Or is it more stutters and sputters and coughs to death over a few seconds? Or does the RPM just slowly keep going down and down? Have you done a test of trying to start it with the AFM unplugged? Does it still die?     If you Follow Josh's advice on using Nistune to check the voltages (which is a perfect method!) if you see anything out of wack voltage wise, THEN get the multimeter out and read the voltage directly at the sensor. If the two vary, then you're now looking for a wiring issue vs a sensor issue. So be aware, what the ECU sees, may not be what the sensor is actually saying too...
    • You very likely need to get it on a dyno and tune it. My assumption is, you've got an RB25DET tune in it, which has a different manifold, different injectors, and different cams as a minimum. What O2 sensor are you running?   When you say it runs extremely rich from idle all the way to redline, is this just free revving it you see that?
    • 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.
