I wonder if we were the reason cops were up at Mt Lofty. Couple of hours earlier I went up there with the 2 boys from Diamonds Cameras, one has the new Maserati & the other brother has the new Porsche Carrera S4 4WD.....we tore the roads up on the way there but took it easy coming down. They were both a little suprised what a Jap car was capable of when you consider their combined value is almost $600K.

I used a full tank of petrol last night, overcooked the clutch & brakes and probably lost 1/2 the tread on my tyres which is why I didn't catch up with you guys later.

so its you causing the sudden rise in petrol costs :(

and by tore the roads you mean got out the cars and performed neccessary road maintenence/repair on the inadequate surfaces you found on the way up :)

whoever owned the blue 32 that looked like kye's was prob freaked out by me :D i was sure it was kye's, it even had gtr seats in it but then i noticed the plates and i was look oops.

good ta see you all again guys, sorry couldnt stay for the cruise but next time ill put in some extra effort to stay out.

To those who didnt follow the cruise map, we did wait for yas, but unfortunately you guys went straight instead of right at the lights in pt adelaide!

the rb26 drags... to 60... were hot, makes me wanna wind the boost up ;)

im done driving for a few weeks, playing taxi has taken it out of me haha, i went through a tank easy this weekend, but so worth it.

Definately nice to start meeting more people, name badges can be supplied (like me and rad33) in the future :D

yeah not wrong Ryan....I've been up that road a million times but it was the 1st time in a car that doesn't feel like a boat....I realized that the car could be pushed alot further than I was prepared to do so.

I caught up with Nick tonight (owner of the Carrera) and he's gonna send me some pics of the cars that went up, I think there might be a bit of video somewhere too, and I'll post the stuff up this week.

yeah I'm hanging out to see the pics too.........I might give it a bit of a rest between drinks I think, it was a real hairy ride and I need to get the driver's seat cleaned before another one of those episodes.......those new 4WD Porches are ridiculous on those twisties and they put the power down in a very linear manner whereas my thing was an absolute handfull with the boost turned up abit more and almost 500hp at the wheels.

We both took a 20 minute breather at the top to calm the nerves down before driving back down.

      Strange issue RB25DET wont start

      By jtha7 · Posted

      Ps i found the below forum and it seems to be the same scenario Im dealing with. Going to check my ECU coolant temp wire tomorrow    From NICOclub forum: s1 RB25det flooding at start up Thu Apr 11, 2013 7:23 am I am completely lost on this. Car ran perfectly fine when I parked it at the end of the year. I took the engine out and painted the engine bay, and put a fuel cell with an inline walbro 255 instead of the in tank unit I had last year. After reinstalling everything, the engine floods when the fuel pump primes. if i pull the fuel pump fuse it'll start, and as soon as I put the fuse back in it starts running ridiculously rich. I checked the tps voltage, and its fine. Cleaned the maf as it had some dust from sitting on a shelf all winter, fuel pressure is correct while running, but wont fire until there is less than 5psi in the lines. The fuel lines are run correctly. I have found a few threads with the same problem but no actual explanation of what fixed it, the threads just ended. Any help would be appreciated.

I found the problem though. There was a break in one of the ecu coolant temp sensor wires. Once it was repaired it fired right up with no problems. I would have never thought a non working coolant temp sensor would have caused such an issue.

      Strange issue RB25DET wont start

      Hi sorry late reply I didnt get a chance to take any pics (my mechanics on the other side of the city) but the plugs were fouled from being too rich. I noticed the MAF wasn't genuine, so I replaced it with a genuine green label unit. I also swapped in a different ignitor, but the issue remains. I've narrowed it down a bit now: - If I unplug and reconnect the fuel lines and install fresh spark plugs, the car starts right up and runs perfectly. Took it around the block with no issues - As soon as I shut it off and try to restart, it won't start again - Fuel pressure while cranking is steady around 40 psi, injectors have good spray, return line is clear, and the FPR vacuum is working. It just seems like it's getting flooded after the first start I unplugged coolant sensors to see if its related to ECU flooding but that didnt make a difference. Im thinking its related to this because this issue only started happening after fixing coolant leaks and replacing the bottom part of the stock manifolds coolant pipe. My mechanic took off the inlet to get to get to do these repairs. My mechanics actually just an old mate who's retired now so ill be taking it to a different mechanic who i know has exp with RBs to see if they find anything. If you have any ideas please send em lll give it a try. Ive tried other things like swapping the injectors, fuel rail, different fuel pressure regs, different ignitor, spark plugs, comp test and MAF but the same issue persists.

      Freddy Plenum vs Genuine options RB25

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      My return flow is custom and puts the return behind the reo, instead of at the bottom. All my core is in the air flow, rather than losing some of it up behind the reo. I realise that the core really acts more as a spiky heatsink than as a constant rate heat exchanger, and that therefore size is important.... but mine fits everything I needed and wanted without having to cut anything, and that's worth something too. And there won't be a hot patch of core up behind the reo after every hit, releasing heat back into the intake air.

      R33 persistent issues. P/steering and lag/misfire

      There is a really fun solution to this problem, buy a Haltech (or ECU of your choice) and put the MAF in the bin.  I'm assuming your going to want more power in future, so you'll need to get the ECU at some stage. I'd put the new MAF money towards the new ECU.
