Saw a familiar looking Caldina today on Prospect Rd in front of Cibo. I looked around for you, but couldn't find you anywhere.

yes mate that was me... having lunch with Sarge (ian perrie).

I must say to all concerned that considering this is the first registered N spec Caldina in Australia (us south aussies can do something right) that I am extremely happy with my purchase.

Anyone wants one go see the chef at www.ironchefimports.com I cant speak highly enough of Kristian and his help.

White R33 at DSTO (Defence Science Technolgy Organisation) entrance at around 8:30. My R32 was in visitors car park. I wonder if anyone here works at DSTO.

Also Silver R34 GT-R (I think) on West Ave, Edinborugh, heading towards Salisbury Hwy around 10:30.

May have also spotted a white R33 behind it. My mate went with Kahli and met up with George.

Spotted a W I D E silvia, S13, at the Brighton Caltex on Brighton Road, near Brighton High. Didn't get a good look as I was ging past, but it was wide, low, and had 2 crack pipes. Was black, too. At about 5PM, give or take an hour.

    • 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.  
    • 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.
    • Thanks for the replies everyone. Definitely a coolant push. Oil catch can is empty and always has been. As the engine is out now I'll be having a good look over things. I do have some detonation on the piston tops from a trigger issue back about 5 years ago. I felt it and shut off then bought a new ecu and changed the trigger. Never been an issue since. It never hurt the power, its made almost 80hp more since that incident but I will pull the bearing caps to take a look. If the bearings are damaged I will do a bottom end refresh. Head is being re conditioned at the moment and the block will be cleaned and checked to ensure it's flat. I'll go with a kameari gasket and see how it ends up. The other thing I'm not super keen on is the cylinder colours. I suspect this is from the inlet manifold. The plan will be to put it back together, retune and then stick a plazmaman billet inlet on it and retune. I'm happy with the power, if it makes a little more, then great, but I would rather just make everything more efficient at this stage.
    • Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...
