hmmm I guess there's no Eco buyers regret when you have a faster track car...

this means you can get cams for the skyline when you get E85 tune, yes? and dot4-5 brake fluid, and more aggressive pads. and remove aircon! :O

Yep, but with car or construction based DIY I still find it worthwhile for the satisfaction of doing it yourself.

I don't get that with making lemonjuice in a spray bottle to spritz on my shower tiles...

I just piss on my shower tiles on daily basis, much more economical.

Immobiliser. Alarm stolen in previous break-in and was about to be replaced

Car was in underground garage behind locked gate, but visible from the street

This is why my last one was stolen! Dat feel...

What area was it stolen from to narrow it down a little Ric?

Ironic criminal stole an alarm?

And motherf**kers act like they forgot about drez

It's really concerning these days that you aren't even be safe in a locked garage. Used to be they would pinch from the street only. Then they started getting tow trucks for those with immobilisers. Now they going behind secure premises with immobilisers.

I thought Vermont was safe too

Realistically though, no alarm but had an immoboliser, pretty much means they can keep on rewiring it until it starts, or until they get spooked one or the other. Sucks but I guess thats why Ash always says, spend little on the alarm gear, lots on the installer.

    • 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.
