Interesting - though I don't know I want to do it myself

its easy mate. electric spray gun from bunnings for 50 bucks. thinners a mixxing stick and a mixxing jug. about 5-6 coats should be enough...

infact i dont even think you need thinners.

It's more the crappy conditions I have - carport with a dirt floor

get an old blanket, roll car on it. paint wheels on the car. just spend time prepping. its realllly easy man. and the guns they sell are pretty good. dont throw paint everytwhere.

well. for one though, i have nfi how much it is to just freight car over to tassie. Would be heaps easier to freight car over, fly over, collect car, drive around, freight car back, and then fly back. Sure you'll be left with no car for awhile, but really, launceston and hobart are pretty small. Walkable if you ask me.

Though. Due to time constraints, wasn't able to sample some hervey bay scallops and lobsters. =(

it is

255 for a 9, 295 for a 10.

you can go less, tyres have a few different sized wheels they can fit, to be legal the load rating must be correct. But as I said you can put a 225 on a 9" legally

Put a Do Luck kit on it and leave the suspension stock too.

LOL!!!

make sure it's got heaps of power too so it's a really dangerous car to drive

235 on a 9 is usually a stretch, but perfectly drivable and legal. A 245 is a very slight stretch; 255 is a flat wall; 265 a very slight bubble. But it changes from tyre to tyre too, as I have seen some 235 that appear as wide as 255 and vice versa.

You really gotta look at the tyre manufacturer's website to see what range they recommend putting their tyre sizes on.

Iv got 265's on 10.5inch wheels, very little stretch. But as you said depending on manufacturer as advan 265 ad08 appear much wider than the khumo 265 I replaced, the profile appears different too even tho dimensions are identical.

    • Have you done the Ignition Sync Wizard in the AEM software?
    • Find out what RPM it was idling at with the IACV unplugged. It's very weird that the rpm didn't change at all, and then it stalled. When it stalls is it nearly like a switch off, like you've turned the engine off? Or is it more stutters and sputters and coughs to death over a few seconds? Or does the RPM just slowly keep going down and down? Have you done a test of trying to start it with the AFM unplugged? Does it still die?     If you Follow Josh's advice on using Nistune to check the voltages (which is a perfect method!) if you see anything out of wack voltage wise, THEN get the multimeter out and read the voltage directly at the sensor. If the two vary, then you're now looking for a wiring issue vs a sensor issue. So be aware, what the ECU sees, may not be what the sensor is actually saying too...
    • You very likely need to get it on a dyno and tune it. My assumption is, you've got an RB25DET tune in it, which has a different manifold, different injectors, and different cams as a minimum. What O2 sensor are you running?   When you say it runs extremely rich from idle all the way to redline, is this just free revving it you see that?
    • 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.
