My advice is to stay well clear of keep left signs late at night if you don't want to need to replace your bonnet! :uh-huh: *Trying to learn from past mistakes...*

At Least it was a good excuse to spend a ridiculous amount of money on mods... :)

Yeah, I have been looking at that s15 too, looks like a drift special straight from Japan. Hey Moggy, whats the finish like on that bonnet, I have been looking at those bonnets on there website for a while now. Which one did you get? Last time I was at their shop they were pushing hard for me to get one but, no money and didn't fancy carring one home on the plane! They look very nice though.

I thought the finish was excellent - a lot better than I thought it was going to be, in fact. Very glossy, and you can't see any break lines in the fibres where they used more than one sheet (if they did). I got the one they advertise for the series 1, with the vents over the radiator and above the turbo (fair bit of heat comes out of that one). I actually had to wait a few weeks for one to be available cause they sold out and were waiting for a new shipment. They said that they go pretty quick - don't know how accurate this actually is...

I think they're pretty good if you can justify the price (they definitely look best on a white car, I think) but I can tell you that since I got it (only a week ago) I've been stared at by every single copper I've passed regardless of what they were doing and I think I'm going to be pulled up a LOT more than usual (which is not very often at all). :P We'll see...

      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?

      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.
