Oh and where you say that diff guy was? Do you have his number??

May as well see how much it'd cost to get my LSD back

Yeah give Aaron a call on 4961 1000... He is down near that Brewery joint off Industrial Drive! Awesome bloke and very helpful! If he wants you to take the diff to him i can pull it out for you man!

Is a 100 cell cat against the law?

No more than anything else on my car :P BUT on E85 mine probably puts out less emissions than your McNugget S15 man

As long as there is a some sort of cat with stuff inside it, it's all good.

Guit-toy was talking about trying to pass emissions testing without a cat on E85 (he was confident he could too :-), but the way the law is written you can't drive without a cat :-(

Ill get mine past eventually!

Anthony did pass from memory too......

nah i was told i would have to go to e85 if i wanted to get mine through, so gave up for now.

on another note, i think i may be needing to change ecu's when my car goes in on wednesday, i have a feeling that it doesnt have a nistune ecu, and has maybe just had the stock ecu retuned etc..

Not YOU Anthony :P Guilt Toy Anthony haha........ Didnt think that through did i? :P

Nistune looks like a stock ECU as it IS in the stock case, they cant have tuned it with a stock ECU man....... JEM do NISTUNE and HALTECH so the choice is yours :)

ha fair enough mate.. if it has nistune i will stick with it for now i think, but if not, i will go haltech..

but yea, was curious whether you could tune stock ecus or not.. it must have something, as its deffinately been tuned a little.

NISTUNE allows you to retain stock ECU but you can tune certain things..... Pretty sure you cant tune the stock ones? The boys will know :)

Haltech is the best!!!!!!!!!!!! :woot:

yea JEM want me to crack open the lid on my ecu and send them a pic, they should be able to tell whats in there from that.

i plan to go haltech in the future, and didnt plan on spending the extra 2k+ right now, so if i can hold it off untill the next stage, i think i will. plus they need the car overnight for the haltech which i may not be able to do due to work etc...

will see how i go this arvo pulling the ecu and having a look.

I'm running Haltech :-) so +1 here too.

another great ecu to consider is the link/vipec. I was running one before the haltech and was really happy too (They make the speedo wave at you when you start the car too...just awesome.). Only changed to Haltech as the ecu was incorrectly blamed for a problem. the link G4 also allows you to keep the stock ECU case.

    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
