I am starting this!

There is too many punch on's with people throwing letters at eachother, with the dream boats and the f**ks and all this other crap being thrown around.

Yes - I do ignite alot of these fights, but if you can't take a joke, dont respond. ignoring someone is the bigger key to pissing someone off.

Is it gonna stop? or is SAU gonna become another "Performance Forum" (the famous Power Chip story)

your thoughts? and no slanging and cussing. who needs it

SAU is fine, it's just this section of the forums. Once upon a time, it was a nice friendly place but now it's frequented by knowitalls who bag anyone and everything they don't understand or don't like.

I think thats true, although was never on it before.. but maybe thats just todays age developing to a more political state. perhaps if someone has an opinion, and someone else doesnt like it? It shouldnt be responded to

Aaron that's the problem with opinions, they're like assholes.. everyone has one and most of them stink.

And Iain, that may be the case but in turn, some people should just keep their mouths shut.

dude dont start another one here(may not be you intention)

but its an opinion about a car dude, if someone else's opinion doesnt agree with yours it doesnt need to be turned into a personal "threat" or "slanging" match

Definitely wasn't my intention, and I completely agree with you. I was just trying to point out that everyone has a different opinion and usually if your opinion is different to someone elses', then their opinion sucks.. that's the way of the world.

But at the end of the day, if you don't have something nice to say, don't say anything at all!

Fair dinkum, if I wanted to hear this sort of stuff, I'd buy a ford/holden...

This was one of the best forums because there was next to no slanging, and what there was , was good natured. I always saw it as what sets us apart from the sedans & coupes was our common ground?

There seems to be an old guard that don't take kindly to other ppl piping up in what the feel is "their" forum. And a few young bucks not showing enough "respect"

Just cos you have a lot of runs on the board, doesn't make you an infallible oracle, but by the same token, newer members have plenty to add (scotty springs to mind)

Just because you weren't on the forum doesn't mean you didn't have a life before it.

The nature of the net is people can be overly familiar, and I think that's becoming a problem here.

A fair bit of what gets said here probably wouldn't get said face to face, and if it did, most of it wouldn't end in the kind of violence ppl are threatening.

For me (and this is probably different for everyone) this whole forum, SAU, is about the sharing of information and ideas to help fellow enthusiasts in their quest for modifying goodness.

I've seen it in the major mods sub-forums where if you have a stupid idea or ask a stupid question things can degenerate rather quickly but it still doesn't get as low as some of the bullshit I see in the Stagea area.

    • I seem to the be only person that is using a Haltech 2500 on an NA motor, I've installed a Bosch DBW throttle body to the OEM intake manifold and am having problems maintaining AFR even with the wideband o2.  It will run extremely rich at idle and up to redline, but under load it will go extremely lean in the 20s and i'm essentially having to rev it over 4k and feather the clutch to get it up to speed.  I've read a few other threads of about the butterfly, it seems removing the vacuum to it is supposed to have it remain open, i've noticed no difference under 4k with the vacuum line to it plugged.  I'm hoping someone here has had luck using the NA manifold with Haltech, and if they happen to have a tune for it.  
    • I don't know any details, but I really wouldn't be surprised if they do it as a LHD only version, at least initially.
    • Thanks for the replies everyone. Definitely a coolant push. Oil catch can is empty and always has been. As the engine is out now I'll be having a good look over things. I do have some detonation on the piston tops from a trigger issue back about 5 years ago. I felt it and shut off then bought a new ecu and changed the trigger. Never been an issue since. It never hurt the power, its made almost 80hp more since that incident but I will pull the bearing caps to take a look. If the bearings are damaged I will do a bottom end refresh. Head is being re conditioned at the moment and the block will be cleaned and checked to ensure it's flat. I'll go with a kameari gasket and see how it ends up. The other thing I'm not super keen on is the cylinder colours. I suspect this is from the inlet manifold. The plan will be to put it back together, retune and then stick a plazmaman billet inlet on it and retune. I'm happy with the power, if it makes a little more, then great, but I would rather just make everything more efficient at this stage.
    • Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...
    • Does it also misfire equally when revving?   Josh is very correct in what you should do. The coilpack harness wiring loom itself is a known problem due to its age and the number of heat cycles it has gone through. Throwing parts at a vehicle to diagnose the issue isn't a smart or good way to do it. Secondly, you may have a bad coil pack, you pop replacements in, they fix that issue, but messing with the harness breaks it, so the issue persists. So now you think "well it wasn't the coil packs" and have to continue chasing your tail, potentially swapping back in your shit coil packs and returning the good ones (yes, I've seen people do this because 'it wasn't the problem' and they want to save money). And suddenly, you've got two issues with the same symptoms...   Diagnose, don't use the spare parts shotgun.
