I appreciate that you guys want to hypothesize on whether or not you should lend cars to mates, Luke knows me well enough to know that I will pay for the repairs, I doubt he wouldn't have let me out there in the first place if he didn't think that was the case.

Early reports suggest I'm up for a fair bit of money in parts, so my JZX110 is now for sale to help cover it - let me know if any of you feel like defecting to a Toyota...

Badluck Chef.

If you sell the JZX110, it might cover the cost of the Series 3 headlights :nyaanyaa:

Shame to hear this has happened, was looking forward to hearing lap times.

Maybe a good story for your PI column.

Doesnt one of the multitude of SA drift series run out at Tailem Bend now?

Multitude? We have two, G1 Drift and Stadium Drift. G1 is Mallala, Stadium is at Tailem Bend.

Bad luck Chef. Pics?

sure it wont cut and polish out? naa sucks to see but it will all get sorted, loosing your profit on them new cubes u been bringing in after this kristian

lol I think I'm gonna have to step up the Cube sales!!

Cheers for the offer Luke (ENR34), Pickering owes me a few favours so I'm banking on him giving me some container space, but I'll give you a yell if it doesn't pan out ;)

I dropped around to Heslo's place tonight again to take another look, and yeah there are a few fairly expensive parts on that list. We may end up doing some deals so he can upgrade a few bits and pieces along the way.

Actually Luke (Heslo) maybe it was the petrol fumes that made me pass out temporarily! hahaha

In the end, my wallet and ego suffered some major pain, but I still got to go home and see my wife and kids in one piece :thumbsup:

I am glad everyone is ok and the car is fixable.

Chef you are very honorable for what you are doing and it looks

like the car may come out of this incident better than ever.

I'm glad that you're ok Chef and that Luke is not too distressed over the accident.

Hopefully I don't suffer the same fate tomorrow in my mate's series 3 R33 GTR.

i'll do my part for the cause and step up the pressure on mum to get a cube from u :D

:laugh:

No shit, they're f**king expensive!

And you're right, at the end of the day, you got to go home, unscathed. That's the most important.

In other news, there's a 34 V-Spec you are selling..... :P

Hey mate I am feeling the pain for you, at least it looks not as bad as mine did. $6000 damage apparently. It will be fixed in no time. See you soon.

    • Have you done the Ignition Sync Wizard in the AEM software?
    • Find out what RPM it was idling at with the IACV unplugged. It's very weird that the rpm didn't change at all, and then it stalled. When it stalls is it nearly like a switch off, like you've turned the engine off? Or is it more stutters and sputters and coughs to death over a few seconds? Or does the RPM just slowly keep going down and down? Have you done a test of trying to start it with the AFM unplugged? Does it still die?     If you Follow Josh's advice on using Nistune to check the voltages (which is a perfect method!) if you see anything out of wack voltage wise, THEN get the multimeter out and read the voltage directly at the sensor. If the two vary, then you're now looking for a wiring issue vs a sensor issue. So be aware, what the ECU sees, may not be what the sensor is actually saying too...
    • You very likely need to get it on a dyno and tune it. My assumption is, you've got an RB25DET tune in it, which has a different manifold, different injectors, and different cams as a minimum. What O2 sensor are you running?   When you say it runs extremely rich from idle all the way to redline, is this just free revving it you see that?
    • 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.
