yeh well i sorta have......

Once i pay my fines its all over, so i'm going to work it out that i loose my license on monday!!!

Yeh whats the worst they can do, give me a fine and take away 6pts :( In three months time i will be back on 12 :D

Oh BTW, i found out that i have only been running 5-7psi of boost :D Took teh car to RMS and they sorted it out and now i'm back to the stock level of about 15psi

Its a whole new car!!

docile. if you have more than 12 accumulated points then you will find that when you get your license back the extra points will have been deducted off the 12, my son lost his for three months and when he got it back he had already lost 10 and has been sitting on 2 points since,[ he lost a lot in a short time after after he hit 12 but before they took it away.... ] chris

cool, looks like it might be a half decent turn out. If Anyone see's a stock black rex, come say hello!!

Paul, in three months it WILL be heaps faster!!! :P

PSIKO, nah i have an XF Falcon which was going have a worked 351 conversion to run 10 seconds. Instead i bought the wrx and the XF is sitting in the garage.

JIMIH, I saw you and FIST at the top car park at scabs on sunday night. We were going to come say g'day, untill our "mate" in that red r33 came into the carpark and started being stupid :)

Chrisroi, thats the first i've heard about that!! :) Ohh well there goes ANOTHER few points.

When i get my license back, i'll just try to bring as little attention to myself as possible. I'm getting a permit for as much stuff as i can, bugger them giving me a yellow for something simple like a POD

hehe ahhh the "drifter" ?? :)

mate you should have come and said g'day ... that dude in the black Monaro ended up coming and talking to us and showed us his car.

On the other point, I lost my license for speeding when I was sitting on 11 points. I got pulled over and given a fine for 4 points.

But when I got my license back, I had all 12 again :) So you might get lucky like me!

    • 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...
    • Does it also misfire equally when revving?   Josh is very correct in what you should do. The coilpack harness wiring loom itself is a known problem due to its age and the number of heat cycles it has gone through. Throwing parts at a vehicle to diagnose the issue isn't a smart or good way to do it. Secondly, you may have a bad coil pack, you pop replacements in, they fix that issue, but messing with the harness breaks it, so the issue persists. So now you think "well it wasn't the coil packs" and have to continue chasing your tail, potentially swapping back in your shit coil packs and returning the good ones (yes, I've seen people do this because 'it wasn't the problem' and they want to save money). And suddenly, you've got two issues with the same symptoms...   Diagnose, don't use the spare parts shotgun.
