Hmmm...

maybe I shouldn't be surprised at seeing...

* a black R35 GT-R

* around Windsor with...

* POLICE livery

an actual, or are we talking the same one that did some of the tarmac rallies in police livery?

The maintenance costs would kill the police force budget... might have to ask a buddy who was recently involved in their fleet arrangements etc.

It's not like they really need them for high speed persuits, the F6's will more than take care of that.

Unless they are after ram raiders although i haven't heard of many of late either?

Maybe they are going back to the days where they used to run the police drag car and doing motorsport events in it as a PR thing?

If they have one, it would have most likely have been given to them by Nissan.

Some stations have an RX-8, but it was just given to them by Mazda. You can't perform any real duties in it apart from taking it to a promo/fair event for kids etc.

Pics would be good.

With the way Nissan behaves I doubt they would have given it to them..

      RB25DE NEO with Haltech ECU

      If you take the top half of the intake off you can unbolt the flap off the shaft and leave the shaft in there blocking the hole. Then you can remove the little vacuum canister off from under the manifold and get a spare vacuum line to run to the ECU. I can take some photos of it later. Probably best to get the vacuum source to the ECU sorted first though. Mine all worked mint with the base map from the GTT an I've pretty much let the closed loop sort the fueling and took 1 degree out of the whole timing map.

      This IS something you also have to configure in Haltech (or at least I did in the past when going from onboard-to-ECU map sensor and an external MAP sensor in haltech land).

      I'm hoping it's something as simple as the ECU is looking for an external MAP sensor, but he is trying to use the onboard MAP sensor.

      You won't need to do that if your happy to learn to tune it yourself. You 100% do not need to do that. It is not part of the learning process. It's not like driving on track and 'finding the limit by stepping over the limit'. You should not ever accidently blow up an engine and you should have setup the ECU's engine protection to save you from yourself while you are learning anyway. Plenty of us have tuned their own cars, myself included. We still come here for advice/guidance/new ideas etc.  What have you been doing so far to learn how to tune?

      Put the ECU's MAP line in your mouth. Blow as hard as you can. You should be able to see about 10 kPa, maybe 15 kPa positive pressure. Suck on it. You should be able to generate a decent vacuum to about the same level also. Note that this is only ~2 psi either way. If the MAP is reading -5 psi all the time, ignition on, engine running or not, driving around or not, then it is severely f**ked. Also, you SHOULD NOT BE DRIVING IT WITHOUT A LOAD REFERENCE. You will break the engine. Badly.
