Writeoff i've been seeing a white 34 around happy valley for a little while, how was the trip OS?

I might have new neighbours that moved in while I was OS. The Skyline is there each day (with P plates) and a tuff red E36 BMW 3 series. Haven't seen the owners yet.

The trip was brilliant! Germany was unbelievable, highlights being taking a Porsche around the Nurburbring and watching the 4 Australian matches live. After Germany I went to Amsterdam for 3 days, Dublin for 3 days & ended the trip with a week in London. Trip of a lifetime.

Not part of the spotted, but interested to hear about the porsche around the nurburbring. :) I'll be there within 8 weeks and plan to see the circuit and maybe go for a drive if the hire car is worth it :D

I posted my first email from Germany on SAU describing my time at the Ring.

There aren't many places to hire cars near the Ring. Check out this site for some info: http://www.nurburgring.org.uk/

      RB25DE NEO with Haltech ECU

      By feartherb26 · Posted

      If you take the top half of the intake off you can unbolt the flap off the shaft and leave the shaft in there blocking the hole. Then you can remove the little vacuum canister off from under the manifold and get a spare vacuum line to run to the ECU. I can take some photos of it later. Probably best to get the vacuum source to the ECU sorted first though. Mine all worked mint with the base map from the GTT an I've pretty much let the closed loop sort the fueling and took 1 degree out of the whole timing map.

      This IS something you also have to configure in Haltech (or at least I did in the past when going from onboard-to-ECU map sensor and an external MAP sensor in haltech land).

      I'm hoping it's something as simple as the ECU is looking for an external MAP sensor, but he is trying to use the onboard MAP sensor.

      You won't need to do that if your happy to learn to tune it yourself. You 100% do not need to do that. It is not part of the learning process. It's not like driving on track and 'finding the limit by stepping over the limit'. You should not ever accidently blow up an engine and you should have setup the ECU's engine protection to save you from yourself while you are learning anyway. Plenty of us have tuned their own cars, myself included. We still come here for advice/guidance/new ideas etc.  What have you been doing so far to learn how to tune?

      Put the ECU's MAP line in your mouth. Blow as hard as you can. You should be able to see about 10 kPa, maybe 15 kPa positive pressure. Suck on it. You should be able to generate a decent vacuum to about the same level also. Note that this is only ~2 psi either way. If the MAP is reading -5 psi all the time, ignition on, engine running or not, driving around or not, then it is severely f**ked. Also, you SHOULD NOT BE DRIVING IT WITHOUT A LOAD REFERENCE. You will break the engine. Badly.
