and doesn't have a engine which probably weighs more than my car.

LOL... WAT?

If the engine gets heavier, the car gets heavier... Secondly, the RB engines are f**kING HEAVY!!! My engine that is more then twice the size of the RB25 is around 50KG lighter...

Bloody cast iron crap.

My question to you S3RK is: Do you enjoy your car for what it is? If so don't be too concerned about your 'mate' who is hanging shit on it, and just keep enjoying itthumbsup.gif R33 is my least favourite skyline but I still appreciate them for a number reasons.

Plus if your mate wants to put his money where his mouth is.. Tell him to find an R33 skyline that floats..rofl.gif

You can't have a boat, without an anchor ;)

but u need an anchor to be heavy so you have get a 3 inch mild steel exhaust with pipe wall thicknoess of 5mm just to get a bit of extra weight... i heard the thicker the pipe, the more potential for power gains. trust me noobs thumbsup.gif

      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...

      RB25DE NEO with Haltech ECU

      By MBS206 · Posted

      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?

      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.

      Could it really happen......

      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.
