Ahh, one of them big magic fuses that actually supplies 12V hey?

yep.

been working on/off it for the last two weeks whilst doing other work. I now have 3 full days on it to get the battery moved properly. toss two battery disconnects in place (one drops the alternator inside the car.) take out the AC wiring, rewire the heater,rear demister and fix a lot of electrical niggles in it. right now I'm doing 0 AWG body earths on it using double jacketed flame proof wiring on the lot.

its a fairly full on job and I'm documenting a lot of it o camera.

And here I was all along thinking it was a battery that did that.

Where can I get one of these fuses Chris?

Sounds like fun. Keen for photos.

He's ok. Sore neck and collar bone but no visible injuries.

He's in a neck brace and on the magic puffer.

Car is most likely a write off. If Jeremy allows it can post some pics later.

Bags went off.

He was going straight, little old lady was coming the other way. Somehow failed to see him and attempted to turn right, right in front of him.

Don't think he even got a chance to brake.

Forgot to say, little old lady is fine as well.

Didnt see her before she was taken to hospital, but the paramedic said she was fine.

I have Jeremy's blessing, so will post some pics when I get home, 4ish

if he gets it back that will allow him to fix the cefiro :)

but yes that is definitely a write off.

Would be a pretty big job. n/a ceffy would have 4 stud hubs so would probably need to swap all the brakes and hubs out as well.

In the second shot you can see the ass end of the corolla wagon that the old lady was driving

forgot to take any photos of that, but it was worse off, with the whole front end completely crumpled in, with the windscreen broken, and the pillars creased.

Not sure,

I was taking photos of the car when Jeremy was talking to the cops

I could be putting words in his mouth, but I think he didn't even have time to brake, so 60ish, and probably 20 odd k's that she was doing.

      RB25DE NEO with Haltech ECU

      By feartherb26 · Posted

      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.
