Hi all..... so went camping fri + sat nights. Mates forester GT ran out of fuel out near kenilworth in pitch black at like 9pm fri night and none of us had reception. Took about 2 hours to get that sorted. We ended up sitting on the side of the road with him having a "few" beers while our other mates went and got some fuel hahahahahaha.

f**kin scary... we were basically in wolf creek lol

Shit day at lakeside today :)

Got stuck in a group with a bunch of sunday drivers, first session got about 2 half decent laps in, the rest were all stuck in traffic.

Second session I came through under the bridge too hot, did a 360, and then slid into the wall. I actually thought I'd managed to avoid the wall but just slid into it on the grass:

Pulled it all apart when I got home.

Guard. Could probably salvage it but not worth it, I'll get a new one:

Bumper reo got a bit bent but nothing that would stop it being used:

Filler panel also got a bit of damage but again, nothing to require replacing:

Headlight glass survived, a bit of paint to get off though:

All the mounts are cracked though. Hopefully I can get this fixed at a plastic welder or something. Don't want to have to buy another projector:

On the bright side, the body underneath it all looks straight:

So I'm probably just up for a guard, front bar skin, and some painting.

Andy, I might need to hit you up for you painter friend soon...

here's a video from session 1 of the couple of fast(ish) laps I got in:

at about the 35 second mark is my lakeside drifting :)

@Andy, does your mate do other panel work besides painting? I might need my front bar plastic welded and cleaned up before painting, and a couple of vents fitted, reckon he could do that?

      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.

      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.
