Next time we will all stay in the same hotel complex to make it a lot easier.

Also forgot to tell you. I swear to god the cops were looking for us today. We went down for breakfast and a cop was searching the car parks all suss like. Then afterwards we went up to shute harbour, 5 minutes later, same cop searching the car parks there, then we went to meet you guys up at BP, said our goodbyes and me and Stacie went back down to the main strip to walk around. Pull up into a carpark, get out and start walking around, 1 minute later same cop scanning that carpark.

Seriously I was tripping out lol.

haha thanks phil.. Loved your car very clean and the antilag is off tap lol...

Funny you mentioned the cops.. There was one parked out the front of the airlie beach hotel when i was leaving. He just sat in the car staring as i got out of the driveway without scraping lol.. then did the u turn and was on the radio and following us. Luckily Andrew got between me and the cop and i lost him after i turned right onto the main strip just after i passed you guys having breafkast.. was very lucky pretty confident he was gonna pull me over for a chat if he caught up :whistling:

I was suprised at the lack of cops hasseling us, especially on the run out to shute harbour. But cant complain about that :thumbsup:

The best I've ever got with the power FC was from Rocky to Mackay where I managed 9.9L/100km, but I could never repeat that. What Cruise AFR's do you run phil? I think mine are around 15:1 or maybe a touch more. Dont remember, will ask my tuner today as he is back in Mackay

But I'm keen to start doing it myself, Will probably order a wideband as soon as I work out if this Innovate Kit I'm looking at is any good.

This is the one I'm looking at anyway:

Innovate MTX-L Wideband Kit

It looks like a good setup, just the price is cheap so thats putting me off a bit. But It might be a good start point anyway.

Yeah I run 15.1:1 - 15.3:1 basically everywhere around 80-120km/h cruise. Not sure how much leaner I could go.

I've heard of people going leaner, but if your getting 9.6L/100km as it is I wouldn't even bother. That's good fuel

Economy, especially if you were overtaking

I'd hate to see mine lol. Maybe I need a new 02 sensor. Still looks like the original one haha

Just replace it with the wideband and run it in closed loop lambda. That's probably a good contributing factor to my new fuel economy.

Still gotta do the cold start properly though as it runs way to rich in the first 5 or so minutes.

i got 1 for $200 from the states and so did dwayne and it works perfect in the supra

Oh right forgot you can't do closed loop.

Yeah I got an ECU from the dark ages remember :P

but at least it does the job :thumbsup:

Yeah Fritz, AEM is an option. I just like that innovate kit I posted because its a nice little gauge and then has analog outputs to run to the FC-Hako (so I can use it with FC Edit) and also innovates software through a connection. I dont know much about the AEM but could be an option worth looking into. Will have a look.

Is this the one?

AEM UEGO Wideband

If so looks pretty good. Has the analog outputs but no serial/usb output.... But thats not really a big issue as the main thing I want is analog to plug in and get data up on FC-Edit

Where have you been ordering yours from? Might have to come look at yours one day. Looks good but and there supposed to be a good system

      Its a 2002 vr-x four VQ25DET, silver. Coil overs, lowered, polished alloys and sport exhaust. Bit of a project, was sitting in a shed for a while but runs and drives great.

      I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.

      Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
