You laugh now, but when I'm at a formal occasion with a shitty DJ and they need someone to drop Dre beats...I have something up my sleeve.

one of mine seems to think it's a dog - can't ignore, wants constant pats and attention

My cat thinks its a dog too. She retrieves things you throw and puts them back at your feet to throw again.

Have never tried that, but I don't think he would - fetching it would eat into pat time

i will, just gonna see if I can get in any cheaper through duty free

Don;t buy Duty free it a rip off.

(I can price one up for you next week if you like.)

what I suggest is shop around and buy one in AU eg Kogan or JB HiFI then use TRS.

For those unaware of TRS:

you buy product in AU,

if item (or combined items on one receipt) is greater than 300AU and less than 1000 (this can be combined for multiple travelers so up to 2000$)

and you are taking the item with you

you go to the counter after passport control

shop invoice, item and give Credit card, they then refund the GST.

so you get best price less GST

DUty free in AU is rip off, and very small in Fiji

short of going to HK this is the cheapest way to get one

ehh.

if you can check when you go it'll be good, i can get the 16gb through work for 350$ which seems to be about $20 off lol. but thats probably as far as i get with Apple setting prices. Kogan was about the same..

might just get one locally then

hmm, I think I've had postage refunded - but yeah, they usually make you pay return postage

If they refunded me the total purchase price including postage, I'd happily pay the return postage as it'd be regular post and cost SFA...I paid a massive premium for express

Yeah a PayPal dispute usually gets you a full refund. You and a seller both get a chance to plead your case and then PayPal make their decision based on the evidence. It could go either way but generally they'll side with the buyer

Interesting.

      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.
