from memory was the S14 a red colour hes running a T28 roler bearing steel wheel turbo @ 16psi i had a drag with him but i took him for 1st and 2nd and then he took me :laugh: story of my life too much weight in the GTS-4

No.. Not too much weight not enough power. ;)

Nice little gcg highflow or hks3037 similiar should sort the weight issue out. :D

wot 1680kg isnt too much

other optons sound expensive .. i tend to spend money on my pc rather than car :D least having a fast PC wont make me loose my license :laugh:

lol..

No doubt u overclock the sucker? Bit like winding up the boost really. :P

lol naw dont really need to yet :D

x1900xtx runs pretty fast in a P4 3.4 i have OC a little but i prefer to just run it stock as with over boosting u can run into trouble with hardware too

Ahh... you see thats your problem.

You have bought a little P4 (4cylinder) that is required to rev to 3400mhz in order to have similiar performance of an AMD (V8) @ 2200mhz. :P

lol

Not really related to overclocking... lol

On that note I'm soon in need of an upgrade. I'll be heading the P4 route this time. This little AMD 2100+ @ 3200+ has lasted 4years.

lol thats a good analagy anyways my next computer is going to be AMD not sure wot core though

im looking @ this mobo though

DFI lanparty

Be sure to researc the board plenty as amd boards ALWAYS seem to have annoying issues due to chipset. Probably the same with intel, just I haven't experienced it yet. :P

I went an ABIT, and would most definitely go one again.

One reason I am going an intel chipset board with a P4 next time around.

I'm considering a P4 dual core, I'm hoping I can hang out until they get the mem controller on chip. :D

sorry can't agree with you there Joel - this is my 4th AMD and they all have run perfect. Have had it 2 years and is an XP2500+ running at 2.2Ghz (ie. like a 3000+) no probs whatsoever. You HAVE TO HAVE decent cooling though.

ahh they do indeed have their little idiosyncries.

i.e returning out of standby issues, dead bios issues etc.. Otherwise.. Rock solid.

Not processor related, more so chipset and motherboard manufacturer related.

They aren't that bad but what I was getting at is 'some' of the amd boards are indeed quite bad. I can't say I like MSI, I forget the model, it was a little quirky with ram and didn't like to overclock. I'm sure there's similiar examples within the intel range.

    • Ahhh, I need the whole head unit. I definitely needed to roll back through and review your setup, ha ha! Neat setup they have going on. I just need a full double din head unit. But I want good and responsive. I might have to review what the likes of pioneer have out these days.
    • 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.
