based ont eh rover 3.5L v8..360kw

lol @ rover V8.

yeah thats what im talking about. but less cobra, more clean/subtle.

will look into 427.

so far my only thoughts are: bigg-ish V8. manual. EFI w/ ecu. maybe ITBs.

Yeahhh m8888 V8's!

Fark the JDM's

Saw this on friends facebook post. Apparently the admins drive ADM Jap cars

*Note not a member of the club, there seems to be a billion different facebook groups

So if I understand his English correctly...they're banning Evos GTRs Stageas GTIRs etc. from their club?

Guy sounds like a professional, from a professional car club.

Nissan make ADM cars? I thought they were all imported from Japan... Or perhaps Korea... Or possibly China.

Anyway, the Stagea isn't gay enough to participate in Facebook groups, or anything that has JDM in the name.

corvette Convertible sounds like would work perfect.

much cheaper than building what your thinking as well...plus can put side pipes on it!!!

yes you can actually get a Aust made skyline:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automotive_industry_in_Australia#Nissan_Australia

but ADM does mean Australia domestic Market, so cars made for sale by a manufacturer sold direct in that area, no specifications on where they were build.

thus there ADM and JDM S15's both build and brought in from japan just some grey import and some ADM as sold by nissan.

I could have just bought a V6 statesman for $3k. But I got the Gloria instead. Becoz it's awesome.

Could just get a sunbeam tiger fully restored for $50k+ but I would rather rat the duck out of an alpine and put a big V8 in it

"The lower price [iron Ore] means service industries such as tourism and education have overtaken iron ore as Australia's biggest export earning sectors for the first time since explosive growth in China's steel industry a decade ago ignited a mining boom, according to the Reserve Bank of Australia.

Demand for iron ore is set to soften even more after China recently set its lowest target for economic growth in 15 years.

Iron ore miners have been counting on a drop in output from outdated and inefficient Chinese mines to help toughen a soft market but this month acknowledged that process, too, is slowing"

    • 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.
