im free just about anytime... except the long weekend.. why dont we just make it a small meet up of newy guys.. can be done anywhere anytime then.. otherwise... one of the twin servos on the freeway is probably the best meeting place for both.. and how bout skylines only... unless yours is out of action.. so not wrxs, silvias, commodores, etc, etc.

cheers

Just to quickly let you know, peoples, that we also have a regular meet-up on the Central Coast every Thursday night. Link is here: http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/We...-2-t190095.html

All are welcome to join us, as long as you behave yourselves. We have a long-established good reputation with the owner of the car park in which we meet, and rarely, if ever, get hassled by the cops in the area (in fact, it's often quite the opposite!).

Any stupid, anti-social behaviour will NOT BE TOLERATED. If you can manage that, then you're sure to have a good time!

hmm if you central coast guys already have your own thing we might aswell just make it a newie based thing,

so where is somewhere central but isnt near town? and i agree with the only skyline rule.. maybe with the exception of other rare imports..

wat about some were like maitland not sure were bouts. or even green hills but there speed humps there very rarly see cops up there witch is a possitave thing and theres under cover car park if its wet, and no one lives 2 close 2 car park so shouldntt get any complants.

just a few ideas

should also do it on a thursday nite maybe cops are all busy in newi

a good carpark is at energy australia stadium... lots of good parking there.. but if you want somewhere away from everywhere... umm... well im not sure.. bar beach is good, but at the moment it would be packed. thursday nights would be a good idea aswell.. just a meet up and a chat.. or even like a monthly meet up for dinner or something.

cheers

well.... yes and no... if we are all being well behaved then they should leave us alone.. but cops arent tops so they probs wouldnt.. what if we went to the bunnings carpark at kotara after hours??

security would probably call us in to the cops.. loitering.. lol

i think energy aus or hexham maccas still, preferably hexham its open to the public 24hours and isnt in clean sight of the road, so if we behave there wont be any issues

    • 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.
