Regardless of any of it, Nathan is one of the few people that would actually cone here and give what was sometimes good advice to people trying to learn ..thats more than I could say for many of the "look what I bought" builders that come here with opinions and little else..

These are the people that annoy me. Never touched a spanner, laptop, or wideband, but all of a sudden know everything because their tuner \ mechanic talked a bit of shit into their ears to get their money.

I've made mistakes, been mis informed etc, but I try and better my ways as much as possible.

I've been tuning for years, and looking at tunes from some of the best workshops around I have been disappointed and I'm very glad that I can do it all myself and get a better effort, every time, for free.

Its a good thread and had been interesting to see others running 300+ for quite a while without a hassle....... I plan to join it soon

i assume cams doesnt count as opening the engine? Or does it?

cams are fine.

it's essentially a bolt on part. the point here is more the bottom end

Sweet, well i should be posting in here around mid month if all goes to plan!

That's a nice looking graph, is it an external gate?

Yeah, tial 44mm hanging of the turbine housing..

2 E85 outlets walking distance from my house now Alan, I feel so spoilt and the fuel feels great, the torque is like driving my little diesel Ute around, so much low down grunt..As an added bonus I just found out my adaptronic has switchable tunes. Its as simple as flicking a switch to change back to pulp..

lol @ knocking on rattles door, that was a good line.

wish sydney would hurry up and roll out the E85 too :(

Get a 200L drum and store it at your place? I have done that just because the nearest servo is 20mins away?

Not that i have a car finished yet so i can post in this thread like i promised a month ago :(

How many K's on the engine, what ECU, who tuned? (maybe relevant to the thread ;) )

let's leave who tuned them out of it as per sau guidelines.

a 300rwkw engine will let go eventually, especially with track usage and it's not fair to the tuners to be receiving bad press because of this.

old motors, over double the standard power, revving past redline :ninja:

Yeah sorry, bad question.... I wouldnt have been blaming anyone for a failure for the exact reason WMDC35 mentions..... Ill stay quiet now until i have a Dyno sheet of my own so i can join this thread properly :rolleyes:

    • Ok so after much research and talking with knowledgeable people I've got my turbo conversion done and it's all running great other than 1 small issue.  Car has remained auto with the na auto and tcm, I've used a stagea ecu with. NIstune board and everything is great other than my gear selection on the dash. It illuminates park, reverse, neutral, 3rd and 2nd. But nothing drive or what gear your in when you pop it into tiptronic.  I'm sure there is may e 1 wire in the ecu plug I need to move to rectify this. Dose anyone here have any ideas?   Cheers guys
    • Sorry I haven't been following all the detail, so you may have tried this. Does it idle with the tiniest bit of throttle you can add? You've mentioned the IACV, does it have an AAC valve and have you adjusted it at all (ie, screw the idle adjust screw all the way in, then back it out a couple of turns until idle is stable)?
    • My bad, I unplugged the one underlined in red instead of yellow before. With the car started, after unplugging the IACV (the one underlined in yellow), it idled at around 400/500 for 3 seconds before stalling. Attempting to start the car without the IACV will not start the car.   It does stutter and sputter for around 5 seconds before dying. However, immediately after starting it, you can already hear some slight sputters from the exhaust.   It won't start with the AFM unplugged. If it is when the car has already started, it stalls in a few seconds.   Yesterday, I did take some logs using Nistune of 3 scenarios. Car idling till it stalls Car idling and unplugging the IACV Car idling and removing the AFM I also have some previous logs of when the Car is idling till it stalls and when driving and it cuts. I am not really knowledgeable enough to understand what to look for. After every test, car idles rougher and rougher, until I have to stop. It will be fine the day after.
    • There is no difference between a 17x8 and an 18x8. The total diameter of the tyre needs to remain +/- the same (so you don't mess up the gearing, speedo reading, and clearance when turning front wheels..... so you just need to use a lower profile tyre on th 18 than you do on the 17. /rocket surgery.
    • I thought the same to start with. But then I thought it was one of those LCAs where the end of the ARB goes through a bushing in the LCA itself, instead of having an end link.
