the dyno will sort out all this for you, post up your results when ya get them

W. C. Fields once said, "There's a fool born every minute"...

and until you mentioned about the low price and the quality of the interior, I was thinking, "Oh no, here we go again!"

We'll be interested not only about the dyno graphs but also what the tuner says he can do within your future budget. Hope it's all good in other areas too.

Cheers,

hahah yer ill post the dyno results when done...everything else is in great condition on it...guy has owned it for 14 years and imported it himself....it drives very well and does go a tad harder than a few mates stocks....but only a tad...interior is brand now and body is perfect which made me pretty much buy it.....aint a a fool buddy...looked at a few before this one and what people want for pieces of shit is a joke haha ill post dyno results in 3days when its done

haha a getz?? would be ashamed if my mum had one of them... all good i paid 8000 for it with a new set of tyres and roadworthy so i dont mind

that's not that cheap. that's about normal price for them.

based on all the other crap the guy said, i highly doubt that too. but looking at thecompliance plate will tell you when it was imported so you can see for yourself when it was complianced

yer stock ecu hugh...well it is but not roadworthied and immaculate condition which i couldnt find one like...also has near new triple plate clutch which im sure of cuz mate did it for him so i knew thats not a lie....well a anyway im happy with it and will make it much better in the next few months anyway....and yer terry i do know i was just saying

    • 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.
