Where did you found them ? where are they based in Australia ?

FOUND THEM DOING A RANDOM SERACH ON GOOGLE

I EMAILED THEM AND I FIND TO FIND OUT MORE

YOU HAVE TO PAY 20% DEPOSIT FOR A CAR YOU WANT TO BUY, THEY ADVERTISE THE CARS ON THEIR WEBSITE

BUT THE WEIRD THING IS THAT THE CARS THEY ADVERTISE ON THEIR SITE THEY DONT HAVE, ITS ALL THROUGH AUCTION??

AND IF YOU CHANGE YOUR MIND AND DONT THEM TO LOOK YOU DONT GET YOUR DEPOSIT BACK

HMMMMMM

They look legit to me. Looks like a private import who has just started a site up but not having an ABN and only a mobile phone number wont given anyone much confidence in them. Its a bit strange that they dont have an ABN, they definitely need one by law.

They do have an ABN:

ABN: 46 372 838 328

Entity name:

BUTROS, MENA

Trading name:

Osaka Performance Imports

All that is a personal ABN you get if you want a second job, until they comply with the fair trading laws and Motor Dealers Regulation 2004 in NSW they are not able to Broker cars as per stated else were or below.

Motor vehicle consultant licence

Allows you to advise others about where they can purchase a particular vehicle. A motor vehicle consultant cannot be a party to the sale of any particular vehicle.

And as you can see below Brokering a car from Japan isn't excluded in NSW.

Exempted vehicles

You are not required to hold a licence under the Motor Dealers Act 1974 if your business is conducted only in relation to buying, selling or exchanging the following:

* cranes, hoists or conveyors, as defined by the Occupational Health and Safety Act 2000

* motor vehicles or second-hand motor cycles (not including new motor cycles) that are incapable of being registered in NSW

I vouch for the owner of the company and although the company is new it stands by their customers im sure Mena would be more than happy to answer any questions in regards to any of his stock as his helped me in the past with items ive purchased in the past. Please leave speculations aside until you have dealt with the shop there is no point putting opinions forward unless you have had experience for better or worse

    • I saw you mention this earlier and it raised a red flag, but I couldn't believe it was real. Yes, the vacuum signal should vary. It is the one and only load signal from the engine to the ECU, and it MUST vary. It is either not connected or is badly f**ked up in some way.
    • @Haggerty you still haven't answered my question.  Many things you are saying do not make sense for someone who can tune, yet I would not expect someone who cannot tune to be playing with the things in the ECU that you are.  This process would be a lot quicker to figure out if we can remove user error from the equation. 
    • If as it's stalling, the fuel pressure rises, it's saying there's less vacuum in the intake manifold. This is pretty typical of an engine that is slowing down.   While typically is agree it sounds fuel related, it really sounds fuel/air mixture related. Since the whole system has been refurbished, including injectors, pump, etc, it's likely we've altered how well the system is delivering fuel. If someone before you has messed with the IACV because it needed fiddling with as the fuel system was dieing out, we need to readjust it back. Getting things back to factory spec everywhere, is what's going to help the entire system. So if it idles at 400rpm with no IACV, that needs raising. Getting factory air flow back to normal will help us get everything back in spec, and likely help chase down any other issues. Back on IACV, if the base idle (no IACV plugged in) is too far out, it's a lot harder for the ECU to control idle. The IACV duty cycle causes non linear variations in reality. When I've tuned the idle valves in the past, you need to keep it in a relatively narrow window on aftermarket ecus to stop them doing wild dances. It also means if your base idle is too low, the valve needs to open too much, and then the smallest % change ends up being a huge variation.
    • I guess one thing that might be wrong is the manifold pressure.  It is a constant -5.9 and never moves even under 100% throttle and load.  I would expect it to atleast go to 0 correct?  It's doing this with the OEM MAP as well as the ECU vacuum sensor. When trying to tune the base map under load the crosshairs only climb vertically with RPM, but always in the -5.9 column.
    • 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.
