blamin the ATO just makes us feel better. it puts a face to the empty promises and hope we all cling to each year. the shadow behind the mask, personified.

I should write a play. 'Phantom Of The Tax Office'

inb4 it's your own money fgts...if you got buggerall or a bill then you paid buggerall tax or have a terrible accountant. Can earn 50k a year and get a 20k tax return if you want the ATO to hang onto it for you til tax time.

Those with less of a return are generally better off because, if they were clever and put their extra monies into interest accounts or wise investments, they made gains instead of the government getting rich off your shit. They technically made ~$90 off Leighs tax return.

And never plan your finances/bills/expenses around getting a good return...unless you can properly plan the return...in which case you probably don't need an accountant to do it for you.

The informeter tells me I hit 2.86 bar between shifts, when the auto fails to find the next gear in time for the soft limit. Generally 30psi pulls fairly solidly though. :P

Stock VQ25det FTW.

the skyline had a split vac line to the gate, stuck it on a dyno and it maxed out the dynos map sensor and my boost gauge. so it was somewhere north of 42 psi, the ECU pulled so much timing and added so much fuel it was shooting droplets of fuel unburnt out the exhaust and all over the wall along with a diesel like black cloud, dropped 100kw too for a mere 290kw run.

I had a similar issue a couple of years ago, wastegate line popped off and it ran 3bar+ for a few days (no idea how much as that was the sensor's limit.) It caused the head bolts to stretch and split the head gasket. Still no det, just masses of torque.

hm.

yeah i get what you mean, but the climate in vic is such that, driving a skyline means auto pull over the moment a cop spots you. probably not too worth it to be wasting cash modifying only to return to stock.

then again, might have something to do with me driving a yellow skyline.

    • Thanks Duncan, that's the best info I've read. Furthermore after learning about the PCM programming side controlling the factory boost solenoid, the purpose of the solenoid is to "bleed" boost when pin 25 is earthed, thus allowing spring pressure in the wastegate actuator to overcome diaphragm boost pressure, thus closing or reducing the position of the wastegate flap creating more boost as the turbo is able to spin faster. It's pretty cool to see a designated Pill to do exactly this, would have liked to have seen it with a tiny filter over the end for those moments in vacuum.  The constant bleed pill has now been removed completely from the system and solenoid boost control has been restored once again.   Case closed 😂
    • 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.
