Just wondering if anyone on here is playing in any of the ANZPT events this week at skycity. It's a big week of poker at skycity so even if your look to go there just for cash should be some good play there. I will be there on Monday for the Industrie game as i work in this industrie. Also thinking of playing the teams event or main event if I cash in the industrie game. Post up here if you will be heading down this week at some stage for one of the events or just for a cash game. Hope to meet some new people down there off here and some of the pro's as well.

LOL Damo

i didnt think the cas would allow hats etc would they Dave?

6 months ago we wouldnt *normally* allow hats and sun glasses at anything other than the poker tables. but then, we also had standards of entry back then. :huh:

that all being said though, youd be amazed what you can get away with at the tables. depends on a) who the dealer is, and b) if the inspector actually gives a fark...

:huh: :huh: ;):D

Funny I should see this thread, my mate and I were talking about getting back into the local NPL games played up here in the hills the other day. I'm no good at it, but it's something to do ;)

NPL = Donkey City. No offense to regular NPL players No cash riding on it and it just becomes laughable. Give me real money game any day :blush:

Last year one of the top 5 SA NPL guys came to a 'mates' cash game. He lost the lot by nights end. Cash games have a greater skill component vs. tourney - increasing blinds force you into situations, cash you can sit back and decided your own fate (luck can still desert you at inopportune times though).

I've had a bit of a look at the ANZPT stuff on PS, but haven't taken things any further than that.

I work for NPL and i see it all. Donkey everywhere and the worse thing is that you see them at the cas and they think there all that when they win a $30 pot i love them sitting at my table at the cas easy money :P. Was down there today at the ANZPT both events today were maxed out great prize pools.

      RB25DE NEO with Haltech ECU

      By Haggerty · Posted

      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.

      Could it really happen......

      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.

      What should I do next to hold the head on

      By Gareth87 · Posted

      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.
