big call

I know, but...things I learnt from that article:

- Hot hatches and utilities share the same target market

- GM managers are professional drivers

- 13 seconds variation across a 21km circuit is the difference between fast and leisurely

- Shooting for fastest ute around nurburgring (assuming it was the intention) and clocking slower times than non-utes means your plan backfired

- Hot hatches don't handle well and were designed for grocery shopping, not corners

I know what you mean Birds, but at least it's better than the usual drivel from cars guide. especially the 'ask smithy' smithy. "my car is 2yrs old and has problem X" smithy: "hmm we get a lot of letters from people with problem X. return to your dealer an see what they think"

didnt know Holden ute was on springs

I know, but...things I learnt from that article:

- Hot hatches and utilities share the same target market well you can put stuff in the back of both

- GM managers are professional drivers Holden do have certified Nurburgring testers who are apparently the only ones allowed to test cars there, (according the wheels magaine last month)

- 13 seconds variation across a 21km circuit is the difference between fast and leisurely tell that to the person who came 2nd

- Shooting for fastest ute around nurburgring (assuming it was the intention) and clocking slower times than non-utes means your plan backfired if this is your Renault then yes..

- Hot hatches don't handle well and were designed for grocery shopping, not corners obviously

yes I'm bored

3 things...

1.Joshua looks like a Renault Megane driving shirtlifter, which explains the retarded article..

2.Lets see the Renault do a burnout, tow a boat, sell affordable spare parts etc etc...

3.That ute is f**king ugly

...

so what got everyone else into the addiction?

I've got a bit of an obsessive personality. At first my interest was music, one band in particular. I spent every moment living and breathing them. Then it was computers, same deal. And then I bought my first car. This one hobby will stay with me for life though...

Changed to BCPR6ES-11.
First time giving it some it slightly misfired then stopped and now coming back.
Funny because when it happened, I gave it some again and it got better. By the 4-5th time going at it it pretty much stopped misfiring but just a quick little hicup at about 5k rpm.

    • The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.
    • Manual boost controllers (where a little of the boost was bled off) were quite common back in the day, because they were cheap and easy. Generally they had a manual adjustment screw rather than being fixed like yours. Down side is they always bleed boost, not just when you want them to so an electronic boost controller that uses a solenoid will have less lag.
    • Hello , im new here and i have A31 home build  RB25det neo stock eng / turbo  aem ems 2 blue connector  aem 3.5 map aem cas disk aem wideband connected to ecu  355 lph pump 550 nismo yellow injectors side feed aftermarket regulator  and won’t start with base aem tuner basic tune eventually flipped cas 180 degree so it triggers on correct stroke not in exhaust cycle  Now it won’t start Wideband reads 10 and 11 at lowest fuel setting  and will share calibrations soon for aem tuner i think something is wrong in aem tuner    please if you have any information, am very grateful         
    • Legend. I ended up finding the facebook account of the owner of the first car i sent but sadly he deactivated the account. I think you’re right in saying it’s some sort of well done custom job. Really appreciate your help anyways.
    • Totally equivalent. Stock often goes from the comp cover because that's where the actuator is also installed and the factory needs 2" of hose to make the connection - and it comes as a pre-assembled unit. They totally have a boost reference from somewhere between the turbo and the throttle(s). Oh, jeez. Just do it in M12 then. We don't actually care that much. I would expect any such AN converter fitting to rely on an o-ring or some other seal onto a flat surface under the flange of the hex**, because bolt threads are no intended to provide a pressure seal. unlike..... pipe threads. **which also requires a suitably flat and smooth surface on the turbo's boss to provide the seal.
