I heard from a reliable source that the cops will be setting up a defect station at the Haven, Terrigal this Thursday & Friday night and next Thursday & Friday night. I believe that this includes emissions testing, but dont quote me on that. Lights will be set up, and unmarked police cars will be sent out to pick up modified cars and escort them back to the Haven for testing.

I never ever drive my car on a Thursday, Friday, Saturday night due to this possibility, but for those that do, watch out on the above mentioned nights.

Thanks for the heads up mate.

It's this time of year they make the haven a defect hole. I've seen them drag cars from past West Gosford Maccas all the way to the haven just to defect/EPA them.

You need to change the heading to SYDNEY WIDE. Because the police will be everywhere this weekend, this is a special test for the xmas holiday workup. So inform people t drive the Grandma CAR...LOL

yes it did.

there were a stack of unmarked police cars cruising around...

it was surprising how many cars they did pull over

spoke to guy in a blue silvia who was getting his car checked out, he was a good guy

says he gets a lot of interest from the police...

definately the best car of the night though

Extra heavy Sydney wide all day patrols were announced and started last Saturday, ostensibly targeting drink driving. They will be doing this for 4 weeks. Note, not during Christmas itself.

The intention is to make people feel they should not drink and drive this Christmas holidays by driving home the message of police presence in the weeks leading up to Christmas.

      RB25DE NEO with Haltech ECU

      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.
