Hey guys,

Looking to get my limiter fitted before the next DECA but am unsure where to go as the instructions are entirely in Japanese, and it would probably require someone who knows the Supra wiring loom.

Also I'm aware this does NOTHING for my car, if anything probably puts the engine at more risk, but f**k it. I want to go to a couple of DECAs with a straight pipe, ignition cut and make some noise. After a few events I'll pull it out and sell it.

Cheers.

Come on it can't be that bad for the car. From what I've read its not worse than bouncing the limiter off the normal fuel cut (which admittedly is pretty bad anyway). I'm not going to sit there bouncing for shits and giggles, it'll just be when I hit the limiter as we all do at DECA, only this time with noise and flames.

Plus its a healthy stock NA 2JZ, nearly impossible to break one of those.

P.S. Thanks for the info on Edge, I'll call them tomorrow.

no, it's not the same as bouncing off the stock limiter at all. there are MANY people that have lost motors due to these things

it's an ignition cut limiter, hence the bangs.

the main cause of engine failure is a dead oil pump from the vibrations caused by the bangbangbang, which as you can imagine is not the best thing to happen while you are redlining it.

Fair enough, thanks for the warning. I always assumed the problems came from unburnt fuel passing through a white hot turbo and potentially detonating in there. Meaning my NA would be relatively safe from that sort of problem.

Shame though, would've been a lot of fun.

Do you? im yet to see any, spend more time with the car parked at a kabab shop with the autosalon crowed

Who the f**k are you? Since I don't know you and you drive old pieces of shit your comments mean nothing to me :)

Not 100% True a friend with r31 Stock as a rock sept for a upgraded clutch and welded Diff and a Bee-r got 5mph Better using it for flat shifting then his old PB other then that it prob useless i would have gone with the Gizzmo launch control that does the same things there is a vid on fullboost somewhere of my old evo 6 running it

Well you don't know me. And never seen me drive. Sonit would be quite clear that you haven't seen shit. My car is parked at bp for no more then 10 minutes till we fuel up and leave and meet up with mates. Are you one of those guys that rocks up on a Friday night alone and goes driving up and down

    • 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.
