Oh, BTW peoples, the current(?) AutoSalon magazine has the results from the last one we were in, with a snap of Beer Baron's R32 GT-R (and some of Xmetal's old Stagea showing too).

It's issue 71, with a blue 2JZ-powered IS300 Lexus on the cover.

Good stuff Paul...

be warned, we may attack your car with SAU stickers if it doesn't have one on there by the weekend :P

Also

the "Haltech Performance Arena", is that where the dyno will be?

Fridays weather forecast = RAIN - Noooooooooo!!!!!!

I dont know what to do, no point in polishing the car only to have to drive from Newcastle straight after in the Rain.

Might have to just wash it here, drive down in the rain and polish it at the venue??? Cant wash it in Sydney unless there is a car wash cafe very close??

I hope the forecast changes by Friday!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Bakes, if you polish the car before you leave, it'll be easier to dry off if it rains on the way down, as the water should bead up better and probably slide off on its own.

Bring a chamois, some detailing cloths and some Meguiars Quik Detailer (or a similar product) to use when you get down here, and also to use over the weekend for touch-ups.

Problem solved! :):(

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