saw that ad, was sick!! :D Feck 75k is very impressive, my dad is regretting buying his Sti because of these 45 AMG's, if only we could go back three months :(

trust bmw to say that :P

Wow that's awesome man, drove a 250 petrol a few months back felt the same, albiet it had more features, as my mum's c200. :S but then drove a e250 cdi coupe and saw the difference, these 250's pull hard i'm sure you're coupe would be quicker than the e!

Mines a sedan, I have no time for the coupes anymore lol.

But yeah, 2.1litre twin turbo diesel, you would hope it hauls lol they are definitely not slow!

It left the missus rx8 for dead lol

Lee- nah they don't come in manual... But eh.

ahhk fair enough yeah the sedans are so comfortable defintely don't regret mum getting a sedan. haha dat mercedes torque just makes you laugh tho, plus amazing how it can deliver surprising performance whilst returning like 5.oL/100km!

Long line of cars trying to get into the cardigan street multi level car park, after a half hour of snails-pace movement, my turn comes to get up into the barrier bit...usually I come in from another turn in so there's minimal scrapeage...but yeah drive in, car can't get onto the ramp...so after 5 mins of struggletown the car park employees had to come and push my car up the ramp... :|

No idea lol normally about 150 for skylines I think though. Never bothered to get the wagon done with all it's glass.

Yeah the quote I got back this morning was $170 for 35% supply and install. Good enough for me... Considering you guys say he does good work...

    • If you take the top half of the intake off you can unbolt the flap off the shaft and leave the shaft in there blocking the hole. Then you can remove the little vacuum canister off from under the manifold and get a spare vacuum line to run to the ECU. I can take some photos of it later. Probably best to get the vacuum source to the ECU sorted first though. Mine all worked mint with the base map from the GTT an I've pretty much let the closed loop sort the fueling and took 1 degree out of the whole timing map.
    • This IS something you also have to configure in Haltech (or at least I did in the past when going from onboard-to-ECU map sensor and an external MAP sensor in haltech land).
    • I'm hoping it's something as simple as the ECU is looking for an external MAP sensor, but he is trying to use the onboard MAP sensor.
    • You won't need to do that if your happy to learn to tune it yourself. You 100% do not need to do that. It is not part of the learning process. It's not like driving on track and 'finding the limit by stepping over the limit'. You should not ever accidently blow up an engine and you should have setup the ECU's engine protection to save you from yourself while you are learning anyway. Plenty of us have tuned their own cars, myself included. We still come here for advice/guidance/new ideas etc.  What have you been doing so far to learn how to tune?
    • Put the ECU's MAP line in your mouth. Blow as hard as you can. You should be able to see about 10 kPa, maybe 15 kPa positive pressure. Suck on it. You should be able to generate a decent vacuum to about the same level also. Note that this is only ~2 psi either way. If the MAP is reading -5 psi all the time, ignition on, engine running or not, driving around or not, then it is severely f**ked. Also, you SHOULD NOT BE DRIVING IT WITHOUT A LOAD REFERENCE. You will break the engine. Badly.
