Well, havent even had the time to get any money together or even think about getting my car fixed from last time I had a ****wit come in contact.... wake up this morning with a missed call from the cops about securing my car cos the windows are smashed in.,.. (me has image of car with no windows at all :)).

Anyway, some dick has smashed in my passenger window (with a brick.. i can tell cos the ****wit 1/2 missed the window and got the door...). I had a heap of random shit in my centre console, most of thats missing, my passenger floor mat was in the back... maybe they were going for ECU.? but boost guage is still there.. so far i think im missing 3 burnt CDR's.

Anyone have suggestions.. cant watch my car everynight.. and dont wanna get a push bike just yet.

Thats no good.. you've got the "Cursed Melbourne skyline" syndrome.. it happened to me, you've got one incident to go and then I think it clears up :D

Often the windows are expensive and overly priced from the 2nd hand places because they know they can unfortunately.

The only solution is to really park it as close as possible where you can hear the alarm from your bed. For some reason my alarm wakes me bolt upright even in the dead of night

well... maybe you should get in touch with Mark from MCCR (WTF_Lex), that car that was smashed apparently had a passenger window in good nick... (dun ask me how, they basically peeled off half the side of the car) you might be able to pick it up for less than nothing.

      Yet another RB Neo misfiring thread after reading all the others.

      Some troubleshooting, connect up a timing light/gun with a proper ignition lead on coil 1. Hold the revs at 4~4500rpm and see if your timing is all over the shop, scattering off its tits. If so, there's a high chance your CAS is fked. But I read you have a Link ECU ready to go in, why not just skip all this and put that in - will make troubleshooting so much easier.

      Misfires when the car is fully warm are generally attributed to the coils (and/or the igniter, on cars with a separate igniter). They can stop working properly when they get hot for a number of reasons. Either electric/electronic, or from thermal expansion opening up gaps and allowing HV leakage. Seeing as you have replaced the coils, that could/should rule them out. But I wouldn't always assume so. Were the coils genuine? Or is there a chance you have bought some counterfeit Chinesium shit? Then we're back onto loom connections. They can fail when warm/hot for the same reasons. Inspections, cleaning of contact surfaces, ensuring that terminals are fully inserted, etc etc, are all justified. The same (heat effects) holds true for the other electrics and their connectors. AFM & CAS, primarily. If you try that Chinesium AFM, drive it around on low load until it is properly hot, but do'nt give it more load than you have to, except when you need to see if it will still miss. I'm dead serious about the untrustworthiness of the calibration of those copy AFMs. Injectors are unlikely to get hot unless the fuel is coming back around hot. You could try squirting them with compressed air or freeze spray to cool them back down to see if they are maybe the cause.

      Alright, all the plugs looks good. Noticed that it starts to get bad when the car is up to temp, that's when things starts to misfire hard. next to do is Injector cleaning and such. Got in touch with a shop to do work on the injectors next Monday also help on diagnosis.

      Hence why I've only modified my car into a pure daily. Everything has to remain reliable & roadworthy, while providing value and grin factor. It also must not be handcrafted to the extent that the car will be immovable if something breaks because you cannot get or make a replacement to at least limp around with.
