Dry manifold? Bottle heater? Electronic purge timing? Stand alone control panel or intigrated One's and Zero's...

GAH!!! What? Who? When?

No bottle heater, manual purge by holding half throttle with the door open and tapping the switch....erm..... you're confusing :cheers:

Adrian

lol.

I am running again next Wednesday @ WSID with the right plugs, better fuel (still PULP) and WITHOUT the two enourmous boxes of Krispy Kreme donuts, 4 litres of water and my video camera on the back seat. :cheers:

Adrian

hey adrian, well done mate, good to see you car is getting quicker. now i am really looking forward to racing against you :cheers:

btw. peak performance (nowra) are having a dyno night (thursday) in the next two weeks, i think its about 30 or 40 bucks to put your car on, i'll let you know when i find out the date.

cheers, mark

R31Nismoid,

Same tyres as last time. 99% shagged (now well and truly) Pirelli 235/45/17's but i let them down to 11psi and fried them hard. The 2.001 60' time tells the story.

Mark, PM me details when you get em please.

Adrian

hey adrian got my new clutch, and it grips like a mother ***cer, ill be there on wednesday after i get some more fuel,wasted it all drivingto the wrkshop, hope to get another run next to you, and some more pics. i also think i should drop the pressure in my tires to about 11psi, 25 is way to much what i used last time.

i heard alot of good things about ur car... congrats.... do u tune ur car for c16...if so what sort of gains are there to be made... ive always thought that c16 was bad for the cars due to its lead content... correct me if im mistaken, cause i was thinkin about using it at one stage but certain tuners would not tune my car with it..... cheers...make sure u kill it this wednesday night!!!

C16 kills ur 02 sensor and the tips of spark plugs

errr... not if you use the right O2 sensor and plugs.... thought that was pretty straight forward. also not great for catalytic converters.

c16 is very bad, only driven 200ks on it and my brand new ngkr spark plugs are gone, need to change them, i hope with the new plugs and clutch might beat my shocking time, will see tomorrow.

And adrian is trying to say they dont effect spark plugs or 02 sensor?? Even the 107 octane suncorp fuel fouls your plugs quick

Did u get high off the fumes when u were pouring it into your tank??

Enricco, a guy with a hell of a lot more drag racing experience than me looked at them and told me 10psi. It worked and there was almost NO wheelspin when i slipped the clutch at this pressure.

Hoetrain, thanks dude.

Can you read? Re-read what i typed. Fark.

    • 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.
