guy that bought my car recons the clutch was fried... lol that thing was 100% when I put it back in with the new motor, it then did maybe 3500km tops...

so the clutch was fried and he still managed to wreck it....sounds like a twat...

How much power you running in the Stagea?

You could borrow my spare set?

Not much at all, prob around 170-180awdkw at most i think but wanting splitfires or OEM so I don't have to replace it in the future when I get more power.

How old is the spare set? Condition?

Buy from perfect run, use gaffa tape for now lol

Will call perfect run, won't rely on gaffa tape lol

Hang on...you're bragging about how few of you got laid on a Contiki tour? :unsure:

bragging?

There were a few couples, and even more werent single ie. left their partner at home. Average age was like 28-29. At least 5 were over 30 which was surprising.

How is that needing them asap?

he either rode the clutch pretty hard for a few days till he wrecked it, or they both happened at the same time...

yeah riding it was my first thought too but sheeet...it wouldn't burn out that quick

so is a dead clutch his excuse for wrecking it?..

 

thats fine for your own motorbike,,,but its useless for track days,, they check the for the sticker,,,also when you come off and crack your head open like an egg you might have a hard time sueing them,,,,and there is good money to be made sueing them...

I know of 2 people with payouts in excess of 300k ;)

personally ,its not something I would mess with for the sake of a few bucks...

 

A shoei is a Shoei, so from a safety point of view there is no argument to be made. It's the same helmet, only Australia charges a ridiculous premium for a test inferior to the tests passed overseas, and a sticker. A sticker which can be purchased for $30.

Perfect run, $429.01 + postage.... anyone know if perfect run is reliable with their warranty?

How is that needing them asap?


Hoping to get them by this week or next and just incase they weren't my problem from missfiring then I'll have some time to fiddle around before deca. Plus I won't have much time to work it out after next week.

It was a button clutch, if u ride them they wear out very quickly..

 

contiki tour = overpriced brothel

 

Agree.

Travel thru europe is piss easy now (thanks to Schengen Agreement/Euros currency).

Parents did contiki many moons ago only cause the Schengen agreement didn't exist back then and went over there 2 1/2 years ago and told me not to bother with contiki tour.

If you want to meet people, do it on pub crawls, job done.

You can just borrow them for DECA till you get your new ones sorted

There off a well looked after motor at around 100,000kms

Changing coil packs is easy takes 5mins. (That's if you have your neo cover and valley cover off) Which I did so it could slightly reduce engine temps

    • Hello, sorry for being late to join the discussion, but my clock just died on me.   Ive tried to look at Michaels digital clock repair.docx and it doesnt work maybe the file has expired.   Please let me know if you can re upload it or take some youtube videos to show us how to get the clock installed? thanks
    • I thought that might be the case, thats what I'll start saving for. Thanks for the info 
    • Ps i found the below forum and it seems to be the same scenario Im dealing with. Going to check my ECU coolant temp wire tomorrow    From NICOclub forum: s1 RB25det flooding at start up Thu Apr 11, 2013 7:23 am I am completely lost on this. Car ran perfectly fine when I parked it at the end of the year. I took the engine out and painted the engine bay, and put a fuel cell with an inline walbro 255 instead of the in tank unit I had last year. After reinstalling everything, the engine floods when the fuel pump primes. if i pull the fuel pump fuse it'll start, and as soon as I put the fuse back in it starts running ridiculously rich. I checked the tps voltage, and its fine. Cleaned the maf as it had some dust from sitting on a shelf all winter, fuel pressure is correct while running, but wont fire until there is less than 5psi in the lines. The fuel lines are run correctly. I have found a few threads with the same problem but no actual explanation of what fixed it, the threads just ended. Any help would be appreciated.

I found the problem though. There was a break in one of the ecu coolant temp sensor wires. Once it was repaired it fired right up with no problems. I would have never thought a non working coolant temp sensor would have caused such an issue.
    • Hi sorry late reply I didnt get a chance to take any pics (my mechanics on the other side of the city) but the plugs were fouled from being too rich. I noticed the MAF wasn't genuine, so I replaced it with a genuine green label unit. I also swapped in a different ignitor, but the issue remains. I've narrowed it down a bit now: - If I unplug and reconnect the fuel lines and install fresh spark plugs, the car starts right up and runs perfectly. Took it around the block with no issues - As soon as I shut it off and try to restart, it won't start again - Fuel pressure while cranking is steady around 40 psi, injectors have good spray, return line is clear, and the FPR vacuum is working. It just seems like it's getting flooded after the first start I unplugged coolant sensors to see if its related to ECU flooding but that didnt make a difference. Im thinking its related to this because this issue only started happening after fixing coolant leaks and replacing the bottom part of the stock manifolds coolant pipe. My mechanic took off the inlet to get to get to do these repairs. My mechanics actually just an old mate who's retired now so ill be taking it to a different mechanic who i know has exp with RBs to see if they find anything. If you have any ideas please send em lll give it a try. Ive tried other things like swapping the injectors, fuel rail, different fuel pressure regs, different ignitor, spark plugs, comp test and MAF but the same issue persists.
    • My return flow is custom and puts the return behind the reo, instead of at the bottom. All my core is in the air flow, rather than losing some of it up behind the reo. I realise that the core really acts more as a spiky heatsink than as a constant rate heat exchanger, and that therefore size is important.... but mine fits everything I needed and wanted without having to cut anything, and that's worth something too. And there won't be a hot patch of core up behind the reo after every hit, releasing heat back into the intake air.
