Thanks for the night Sam. Good turnout,

Next time round i'l make sure i raise the car a little higher for you haha, However i didnt particularly mind taking home the award for lowest car of the night! =)

Hi Sam, Went back to chasers to get my AFR fixed and he re-dynoed my car and said they were fine, and he said that your dyno is broken.

Cheers

lol, wtf?

if i recall it was running far too lean...

Paul showed me the dyno sheet.. cars running beautifully.. its not running lean at all..

Its either Sam's dyno is wrong, or chasers and judging by pauls reaction, its sams..

Yet you post this 2 days ago?

Something isn't adding up, flashing like that = detonation = running mega lean.

My engine light was flashing BEFORE my chasers tune, (when it was tuned by RACE PACE by BEN)

Heres a message from the old owner of the car aswell..

VERY IMPORTANT - ONLY USE 98 RON fuel (Shell VPower / Synergy 8000 / etc), otherwise the engine may ping/detonate. When you install a Power FC the check engine light on the dash (yellow light, top right) becomes like a knock sensor. If you ever see this flash at you need to back off on the throttle. You can still drive the car OK but just don't put your foot down. This basically never happens but might if you fill up with 95RON, have a bad batch of fuel and/or it's a really hot day (40 degrees plus). Just take it easy on those days.

Its happened about 3 times in the 2 months i've owned it.. So not really sure what the problem is..

    • Clutch is a spec brand, new clutch system,( PP, flywheel, friction disc, etc. pull type) installed 100 miles ago, with no problems.
    • looking for some help and maybe some insight on others experience with a new LSD. R34 GT ran and drove beautifully, but always alot of grip loss due to the open R200 rear end, so I just installed a new 1.5 LSD way into the stock open R200 for a ER34. Simple. Everything seemed right. I test drove for the first time this weekend. as I started to back out the garage the first time slowly with tires straight it sounded and felt like I had a loose or half disconnected drive shaft...that was clucking around loose and shaking entire vehicle, and making it feel like the trans clutch was spontaneously slipping then grabbing very roughly while just letting out pedal slowly. I backed it out went to pull forward with the same noise, shake and slip grab feeling with hesitation, I turned the tires to back out more and then pulled ahead some same thing but worst because of added wheel resistance (which that I expected) puzzled … pulling it back in checking everything over and finding nothing wrong, I tried it the next day. same thing, couldn’t believe how it shook everything again making a terrible noise and making it feel like the trans clutch was slipping and grabbing, but I got it out of garage into the driveway, got it straight, drove forward and then reveres a few times in a straight line everything shaking , causing what felt like clutch slip and grab every time, sounded like right behind front driver tire and I could feel it in the floor board with my feet,... worst right when beginning to let clutch pedal out to engage slightly, shuttering and sounding terrible along the way…I managed to slowly get down the road, babying it the whole way, once I was rolling (out of 1st) seemed to be better and between shifts, then clutch felt closer to normal…not slip/ grab etc., but back down to any stop, straight road or turning, same thing. Made no difference if all tires were straight or if I was turning. All other gauge read out correct. with in 2 miles as planned I reached the empty parking lot and performed the break in procedure that came with lsd, essentially to drive in a figure 8 a bunch.  Did this, binding chattering, and shaking the car the whole way. I drove it back home seemed somewhat normal once I was in straight line and past 10 mph or so, and I know it will “bind” on corners and cause some tires squeal when turning especially from a stop, but when I begin to move it still causes what feels like the trans clutch to slip and jerk badly as well as shaking the entire car, and sounds terrible, that I didn’t expect. I used the fluid they supplied with LSD kit and did the breaking, planning to change fluid as they suggest after breaking, but wondering will it get smoother or less aggressive with use? maybe a 1.5 is just too aggressive for normal road driving?   I have a LSD that I put in my 71 cuda when I restored it, with amazing smooth , quite yet effective results. Different style LSD but that ones a joy to drive. maybe expecting too much from this R200?
