Cheap wheels are sometimes fine for posing around on the street, however if you race on them, be prepared to possibly die or stuff it in the wall.

Having said that the number of fakes I see on the dyno that are basically buckled square from hitting tiny ruts in the road daily driving etc is frightening. There are no standards in this game of knock-off wheels, just the temptation to make them as cheap as possible to maximise margins. Thats the price some will pay for vanity.

just to reiterate the point

i cant believe people are still buying Fake brides and nardis, having first hand seeing both snap clean in half is not something that anyone should take a risk on to save a few hundred dollars. if you cant afford the real thing then dont buy it, save your money, or just use standard gear that at least wont try and kill you. If you believe the BS about its made in the same factory and just doesn't have the tags your an idiot

And at the end of the day when you put the real and fake together and have a good look there like apples and oranges. They only look the same in shitty pictures on the internet

    • 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.
    • 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...
