Considering making a gif thread Steve, seeing as people complain that it takes so long to open the Wasteland with a page full of them. I remember when the wasteland was full of pics, videos and gifs!! But saying that, theres enough threads popping up weekly with stolen cars and misplaced for sale items, we probably dont need another thread.

I've only seen one person complaining. I go through the wasteland a lot with my phone, page full of gifs only adds 30 seconds, even on Vodafone.

yes its me lol

I like the gifs just not with 1 bar of signal on safari. firefox much better. (optard shares towers/switches with voodophone so both suck), hell all phone companys suck in general

my 4s will be here friday so I'll see it the Dual antenna fixes anything, doubt it maybe if I jam a coat hanger in the headphone port and put tinfoil balls on that ? like old tv antennas.haha

optard confirmed the network is overloaded down here, galaxy S was worse then the iphone signal and ate the battery faster when they shipped me a brand new test one

just came back from a wheel alignment and they told me I need a 'camber kit'.

After some quick googling, seems like whiteline offers something called a camber kit :P out of curiousity, what does this include?

Also, any suggestions where I could pick this stuff up?

Useless. the adjustment they offer is almost non existent. Just head down to JIS and buy a set of adjustable camber arms. While you're at it, get some toe rods too.

Problem solved.

the whiteline camber kit when using both bushes can remove -.75 camber. with arms to can reduce up to -3. alot more adjustment for a bit more money, and in the long run will be better than forking out for tyres all the time

Nice welds, they call it a roll of dimes in usa. cause it looks like a roll laid out like a deck of cards. DOH.

TIGS and GAS MIGS can weld that nice depending on material . I have a unused mig if you want to practice sometime..lol

Pipes are harder you have to be able to spin it nonstop while welding.or you get stop, start marks not as pretty ..lol

      RB25DE NEO with Haltech ECU

      By Haggerty · Posted

      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.

      What should I do next to hold the head on

      By Gareth87 · Posted

      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.
