pfft... not impressed... only 2 cars actually managed to get down the 1/2 mile remotely cleanly... well done to the RX7 guy getting his car fixed as he was one of them... don't know how you see outta the windscreen with all those stickers tho;)

Ferrari looks great but that's about it, left the line with clutch smoke billowing out the back of the car = $$$

everything except the 2 imports and torrie seem to have waaay too much power and zero grip (and the owners couldn't drive to save their lives)

Luff never has anything interesting or intelligent to say other than "it has heaps of power" and if he sat in the passenger seat yelling at me like he does I would have to open the door and kick him out

these are supposed to be street cars but most of them would be really average on the street and evidently rubbish on the track too... they all look absolutely mint but the point is the're super quick and good at everything, right?... just don't see the point in the show...

I dunno just felt like it could have been handled more professionally, makes us all look like meat heads IMHO... that's not the guys who were on the shows fault... real low budget, rushed car show once again... lets hope somebody throws some money at the Aussie Top Gear

dont worry, it was bloody shit house! all they did was show wat they done the last two weeks and bloody talk, then when it came around to the actual event this week, they just showed snippets of the cars goin round the little course they made. and then that was the end of the show!

but at least Dom won this weeks event!!!!

Yeah the show is going from bad to worse. The guy with the Ferrari couldn't be a bigger tosser if he tried and apart from Dom (and Andrew because he is yet to have a go) the rest aren't taking anything seriously and wouldn't have a clue where the brake pedal is.

I'm not sure why Andrew was out of this weeks event, I don't know how closely they filmed each episode but I wouldn't think it would take more than an afternoon to source and fit 2 axles on a 200SX in melbourne.

I can see why this show is on Foxtel only, it wouldn't last a week on FTA.

According to a federal cop mate, at least half these guys are MAJOR importers/dealers of illicit substances (sorry, under investigation for said crimes).... so that's how they can afford such sweet cars.

Mate ths is a public forum.

Unless this information has also been reported in the papers or released officially, you better hope the boys on TV don't read this post because your ass and your copper mate's ass is theirs.........without evidence, even if they're only under investigation, this could be seen as slander.

Nightcrawler, for timheather's sake, it might be a good idea to remove this post.

thread is ok its content in the thread hence why i deleted my so called funny comment because i realised i may no be so funny @ all

Yeah you're right Steve, I meant "post" not 'thread"...........I've now changed that.

What slander mate? I never said who.... :)

You didn't have to mate. There's only a handfull of guys on there and the fact that the public can now put them all in the same basket is like opening a can of worms. If your info was backed with evidence or it had already ben reported in papers you would have been better off naming them just to exonerate the others.

Sorry to be so hot on this subject, reason being is that I have also been accused of links to outlaw bikers by someone who barely even knows me just because of the toys I have.

He's about to learn the meaning of the word litigation if he dares to start slandering me in forums.

      Have you done the Ignition Sync Wizard in the AEM software?

      R32 GTS (RB20DE) Injectors Replacement

      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...

      RB25DE NEO with Haltech ECU

      By MBS206 · Posted

      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?

      RB25DE NEO with Haltech ECU

      By Haggerty · Posted

      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.

      Could it really happen......

      I don't know any details, but I really wouldn't be surprised if they do it as a LHD only version, at least initially.
