its funny how bad ideas somehow seem good when youre half cut. :D

oh yeah, dtei has 'transport compliance' patrol cars running around, anyone know what the deal is with those?

Just scored myself a set of these Bilsteins and should be here by next Monday

Got some Tein HA Coilovers for sale now.....I'm pretty sure they suit 33's as well.

Can anyone confirm or I'll check it out tomorrow before posting in the "For Sale" thread.

hey guys,

i just had my old shitty cat convertor removed (same cat back from when my 33 was complied) and replaced with a second hand 3 incher that i picked up off a forum member. When we were removing the old one, we noticed that the sensor wasnt even screwed into the cat and was tucked away above the heat shield, and the housing for the sensor was welded shut...

the car ran pretty good however... didnt miss a beat, making nice power.

So after getting the new bigger cat installed, we welded the sensor hole shut, as the last cat had.

Anybody else have this? Is it a disadvantage not having that sensor in (supposedly doing its job)?

Alot of cars especially when a conversion has been done never get them connected..It's the Exhaust temp sensor. Im not entirely sure of its effect of not being connected but they run fine so thats no problem. The ecu gathers all sorts of values from each sensor and calculates its map correction from what it reads to create an ''optimum'' mixture. But like i said ive never really noticed a difference between one being and not being connected. Haven't looked that hard into it however.

    • That looks good, but I think you're going to need much beefier side skirts now.
    • They are daft and there's a reason it never caught on. Steering feel? We don't need no stinking steering feel!
    • I gotta pull you up on this. It's driving me crazy. A shutter is something that closes, like over a window or in a cmera. The word you want is shudder. That LSD is clearly f**ked. Take it to a diff shop and get it disassembled and examined by an expert. YOu might have plates welded together or something equally crazy.
    • Define "starting to fail". Wy not just rebuild them?
    • Check the Nistune doco. There are a few assumptions being made here that might not be valid. I will list the things that occur to me: Base map. Base map for what? Base map for Z32? Then the cranking pulse width is probably wrong for an RB25. The extra 500cc of capacity might well be enough to prevent it from catching. Base map for RB25? I don't think you can load one of those into a Z32. You have to just make the settings correct for an RB25 in the Z32 base map. That is either K or the TIM to get the pulsewidth right. Loom. You bought a loom for an RB. And you plugged it into a Z32 ECU. Did you make sure that any iwre differences were swapped. From memory, there's at least a couple. And as per the others, I would suggest making sure that the fuel pressure is correct while cranking and that the injectors are actually flowing as expected. They really must come out and go on the bench, unless you do find that you have messed up as per above points. I would also suggest watching in Nistune to make sure that everything is reading correctly. That the correct binary flags are raised at the right time (like the crank signal), that there's no stupid values in K or TIM. That you have not got mismatched firmware for the ECU and/or a wrong image loaded.
