Define "Mid" and what are you using it for?

I'm using it for the weekend of the 8th/9th/10th November... Tempted to buy a Hero 3+ Black edition now actually...

 

Edit: I would have complete missed that post, but LADY GRANTLY OF HEARTFORDSHIRE saved the day...

Got winton 17th nov. So that weekend??

yeee get that fixed lol.

meanwhile on the topic of silvia's for sale, what in the actual f**k is this http://www.carsales.com.au/private/details/Nissan-Silvia-1994/SSE-AD-2256589/?Cr=22&sdmvc=1

Sydney happened. I lnow it's SA, but still blame sydney

Grant might be interested. :-$

He's deaf not blind

I have no idea if it's happy dyno, lean or all bullshit from the customer... all i'm saying is get an AFR printout lol

He can't do AFR printouts, the 0-5v input for the wideband isn't working and it would cost $1000's to get the repair tech out. The customer is allowed to watch the AFR display while tuning is going on of course, if they don't have any faith. (If that's the case they should be running their own wideband anyway.)

If you were implying he runs the tunes lean to get more power or that the dyno power figures are massively inflated you are mistaken obviously. I have had some unbelievable tunes from him on RE's dyno, and now his own Dynamic Dyno, smart bloke when it comes to tuning anything. I'm sure you are in good hands Leroy.

Bullshit from the customer? It was Autobarn mate... :P

bro just get these decals. so f**king power. so much so there will be danger to manifold (often realised in floor panels falling apart)

fuark how much power is it pushing?? Brian approves :yes:

Different story then... as I said it could have been bullshit... but I honestly hadn't heard a review from someone I would trust until now

    • 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.  
    • 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.
    • Thanks for the replies everyone. Definitely a coolant push. Oil catch can is empty and always has been. As the engine is out now I'll be having a good look over things. I do have some detonation on the piston tops from a trigger issue back about 5 years ago. I felt it and shut off then bought a new ecu and changed the trigger. Never been an issue since. It never hurt the power, its made almost 80hp more since that incident but I will pull the bearing caps to take a look. If the bearings are damaged I will do a bottom end refresh. Head is being re conditioned at the moment and the block will be cleaned and checked to ensure it's flat. I'll go with a kameari gasket and see how it ends up. The other thing I'm not super keen on is the cylinder colours. I suspect this is from the inlet manifold. The plan will be to put it back together, retune and then stick a plazmaman billet inlet on it and retune. I'm happy with the power, if it makes a little more, then great, but I would rather just make everything more efficient at this stage.
    • Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...
    • Does it also misfire equally when revving?   Josh is very correct in what you should do. The coilpack harness wiring loom itself is a known problem due to its age and the number of heat cycles it has gone through. Throwing parts at a vehicle to diagnose the issue isn't a smart or good way to do it. Secondly, you may have a bad coil pack, you pop replacements in, they fix that issue, but messing with the harness breaks it, so the issue persists. So now you think "well it wasn't the coil packs" and have to continue chasing your tail, potentially swapping back in your shit coil packs and returning the good ones (yes, I've seen people do this because 'it wasn't the problem' and they want to save money). And suddenly, you've got two issues with the same symptoms...   Diagnose, don't use the spare parts shotgun.
