My dream of purchasing a m35 has been shattered , my funds lost due to incorrect info from stock broker , now iv'e tried to go for a loan , found out i have a black mark on my credit list due to some unwise ventures years ago in my younger days , as financers dont want to fund grey imports , and the ones that do see the black mark and back off, even though i earn good money , still no go, so it has to be an aust delivery vehicle , or zip , SUBARU LIBERTY GT WAGON ????? ;) , KINDLY SEND A $2 DONATION TO HELP UNDER PRIVLAGED NON STAGEA OWNER , HELP FIGHT THIS ABOMANATION ON SOCIETY . LOL. :D

Sucks to hear that mate, finance companies are pretty blinkered when it comes to imports. Their thinking is that if most major insurers won't touch imports, there's gotta be a reason for that. How long ago was the mark against your name left? I think they expire after 7 years?

not good champ, i had a similar problem fixed it with a unsecured personal loan from westpac. they gave me the cash and then i went and found a car within my limit. then payed out the car loan with a home loan lol.... now i own the car!

u'll find a bank will be more then willing to help you if you're already a customer, and they can see all of your info infront of them.

get the mrs a golf or mini!!!

why not rwd? :yes:

Hmmm, Golf would be cool as would a mini... Service costs and vehicle price are downers though (No. She does not like the old mini's :banana: )

Also needs to have a bit of grunt (she is bored with the 165kw from the Magna :) )

Gotta have 4 doors and be smallish car (she loved her Mirage)

Why not rwd?

Since Alan put AWD ahead of all other preferences I figure it is pretty high on his list...

I sort of have the same problem, except I allready have my Stagea. Since my turbo died I tried going to the bank to extend my loan amount but now that I am casual not fulltime they wouldn't do it for me. Savings a bitch to since, I was unemployed for 2 months and got to get ourselves back on track with bills. Sorry to hear about your troubles. Hope you can work something out to get your car.

      AHHHH gotchaa, I'll do that once I am home again. I tried doing the harness with the multimeter but it seems the car needed a jump, there was no power when it was in the "ON" position. Not sure if I should use car battery jump starter or if its because the stuff that has been disconnect the car just does send power.

      RB25DE NEO with Haltech ECU

      By Haggerty · Posted

      As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.

      It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack.

      Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.

      R32 GTS (RB20DE) Injectors Replacement

      In my head it does make sense to be a fuel problem since that is what I touched when cleaning the system. When I was testing with the fuel pressure gauge, the pressure was constantly 2.5 bar with the FPR vacuum removed. When stalling, the pressure was going up to 3.0 bar (which is how it should be on ignition).
