or the F40.... IN THE 80's!

But that was cool, cause the outer 2 were from the turbo's, and the middle one was from the wastegate.

Don't think that PM35 has a wastegate :rolleyes:

Except that the 458 isn't turbo... stupid nostalgia trip!

its strange that most car companies are now producing a retro model of some description. Some work out OK I reckon, but some are just dogs.

If Ferrari wanted to put 3 exhausts on the 458, they should have put turbos and a wastegate on it!:whistling:

I wonder if when F1 goes back to Turbo's in 2013, companies hero cars will then become turbo again- like the 80's?

Funny how Ferrari get away with it when they put them on a 458 Italia...

Difference is;

1. Ferrari 458 is beautiful (and I'm a Lamborghini guy!)... although I don't really like the rear lights

2. The exhaust is in the middle of the 458

3. It has a specially designed rear bumper designed to "work with" the 3 tipped exhaust

4. Not styled similarly to a Volvo :P

Now that triple zorst tip looks HOT...

Too bad they catch on fire easily though...:teehee:

on the topic of tires. which im not very good at calculating as I have No f**kin idea on how the calculations work.

if on the stock 18" ARX wheels i have 245/50R18's which is the standard rolling diameter for the ARX, and I wanted to go to 19" x 8.5 - pretty much same as Bbenny's wheel, what tire size would I need??

I want to stretch the tires a little to.

i tried searching a calculater, but i dont even know where to start!

I like this one: http://www.miata.net/garage/tirecalc.html

or this one:

http://www.rimsntires.com/specs.jsp

Damn the standard ARX tyre size is 245/50?

If you going 19's in 8.5 I reckon 245/35 or 40

If your gonna stretch it a little go 225....lol

My uncles givin me a free set of the below..

235/35-19

same brand i got for scott I cant remember.. lol is that ok?

nup you should be 245/45-19

oh...and stock spec's

well thats probably why mine always looks like baloons lol

Bluestreaks?

If they're good enuff for Scott...then they should be ok...maybe...

looks like 234 45 or 245 45 as craig said.. the ARX has different rolling diameters to yours.

    • Check the injectors flow evenly, and are actually flowing what you and the ECU think they should be flowing. If it's starting up on starter fluid, you have a fuel issue. Is it possible under cranking your fuel pump is turning off?   The harness you replaced, is that the whole engine harness? Do yourself a test, and drop the old harness on and plug it into the Z32 ECU. It's possible they've wired things different. From memory S1 to S2 is different in RB25 and you may have a wrong loom
    • I haven’t pulled the injectors to watch them spray yet but they are clicking from the cas and all of the spark plugs are wet with fuel. I’ve thought the cylinders were being flooded from the beginning and was hoping fuel pressure would fix it. Tonight I am going to pull the rail and watch the injectors spray. Don’t know how to test/diagnose if the plugs are firing in correct sequence but that should be a timing thing and as far as timing goes my car still has the half moon for the cas can only install it 1 way. And my mechanical timing is 100% correct I posted photos above. Confirmed with the balancer on and off. 
    • I checked spark on all cylinders and they all visually have spark with the plug pulled and grounded, but plug 1 is the only one that fouled. This was a running swap that blew up and was rebuilt by a machine shop, put a new wiring specialties harness and did all gaskets, studs, and bolts while it was out.  compression is 135-150 across all cylinders. Aside from that from my understanding with the z32 ecu and maf the car should start regardless. The wiring for TPS and the dual 02 sensor/ dual knock sensor stuff shouldn’t actually stop the car from starting or even running well, (just slightly rich)  they just give fault codes. Car supposedly is supposed to start as long as you have z32 afm and ecu with the nistune base map and that’s info coming from a well known and trusted tuner who does a lot with SR/RB (Rsenthalpy). After more trouble shooting today where I’m at right now is that the cas is sending signal to the injectors they click while spinning the rotor, Fuel pressure is now set at 43psi, all cylinders have good compression and all of the plugs looked great (just wet with fuel) except for cylinder 1 which was very black (cylinder 1 has 150psi compression). all of the coils generate spark if pulled out and grounded out on the head. On the fuel pump car just pops into the exhaust. On starting fluid car will fire off. Hard to tell if all cylinders are firing off but definitley a couple. sounds like all of them but it’s only for 3-5 seconds hard to tell. 
    • Final update!!! Got the front bar fitted and sprayed and all sorted now. My cutouts worked great and the indicators aren’t just falling off. 😂  
    • Is this a brand new LSD? if so, have you followed any break/bed in procedure for it? Usually involves heaps of figure 8 patterns, a fluid flush.
