I was fine when I was waiting for parts and waiting for them to be installed. It's knowing that it's all back together and all working and driving just fine (just not as efficiently as it could) that is killing me.

Well fret no more. They now have it. Not sure that it will be done today but it's turtle-heading

You just made my day Dan the man!

*Does a happy little dance*

Reckon I'd be fine to swing down tomorrow arvo to pick her up?

It's got a new Nistune ECU in it.

Good choice :thumbsup:

Nice power from a lightly modded 25 I must say :) I'm going to be happy if I get around 180-200rwkw.

Yeah really happy. People have got around 250rwkw @ 18PSI out of the same turbo, but probably have a less restrictive intake. Also i believe EFI's dyno reads a little on the low side. So I'm stoked.

So, seeing as it's driving so great, you going to come out for a drive to Jacks?

So I can hard park it? Negative. I've got to go round to Dave's to pick up a shroom for Scott, and help (read: supervise) Dan getting Dave's clutch working.

It does read a bit lower than most, at the majority of places around you would make 10 to 15rwkw more i reckon.

Don't think Dan can make it now. It's not like I need to drive the car to work tomorrow or anything :whistling:

Which would put it pretty much bang on that 250 mark :).

Roger. I'll swing round anyway and grab 'shroom.

Noel if you go to Jacks let me know, It will give me a good reason to clean my car

yup, no work again tomozz so Fat Alvin will be rollin in...Be hatin

Village square it's called. Enter carpark beside JB-HIFI.

I laughed fairly hard at the idiot who ripped the bottom out of his super low S13 about a month back. He tried to cone in over the big speed bump at the other side :P

hey does anyone have an r32 actuator (10psi) and if they want to give or sell (but mostly give) can they please bring it to baskins tomorrow? or a boost controller/ tap for the right price :rofl:

    • If you take the top half of the intake off you can unbolt the flap off the shaft and leave the shaft in there blocking the hole. Then you can remove the little vacuum canister off from under the manifold and get a spare vacuum line to run to the ECU. I can take some photos of it later. Probably best to get the vacuum source to the ECU sorted first though. Mine all worked mint with the base map from the GTT an I've pretty much let the closed loop sort the fueling and took 1 degree out of the whole timing map.
    • This IS something you also have to configure in Haltech (or at least I did in the past when going from onboard-to-ECU map sensor and an external MAP sensor in haltech land).
    • I'm hoping it's something as simple as the ECU is looking for an external MAP sensor, but he is trying to use the onboard MAP sensor.
    • You won't need to do that if your happy to learn to tune it yourself. You 100% do not need to do that. It is not part of the learning process. It's not like driving on track and 'finding the limit by stepping over the limit'. You should not ever accidently blow up an engine and you should have setup the ECU's engine protection to save you from yourself while you are learning anyway. Plenty of us have tuned their own cars, myself included. We still come here for advice/guidance/new ideas etc.  What have you been doing so far to learn how to tune?
    • Put the ECU's MAP line in your mouth. Blow as hard as you can. You should be able to see about 10 kPa, maybe 15 kPa positive pressure. Suck on it. You should be able to generate a decent vacuum to about the same level also. Note that this is only ~2 psi either way. If the MAP is reading -5 psi all the time, ignition on, engine running or not, driving around or not, then it is severely f**ked. Also, you SHOULD NOT BE DRIVING IT WITHOUT A LOAD REFERENCE. You will break the engine. Badly.
