Trip out to the Riff today ( I survived- phew :whistling: )

Came back with this in the back of the Wagon-

7940974378_86c0984f81.jpg

6000 for the Stagea, and 3000 for the Nugget.

Nugget won't know what hit it after doing 100k kms on Castrol Magnashit.

Good prices- $4.47 and $6.83 a litre before GST. Better than $100 a bottle of that purple stuff.

Noice! Check your boot for stowaways...

Do they do a 10W40 SynX 6000? Or is the difference so minor it's not worth worrying about?

I'm running the 5w40 Syn X 6000; it's perfect in ours.

+1

Oem is 7.5-30w, so is just a jump in the other direction to 10w.

Not putting it in for a little while, but will post thoughts when I do.

And if it's good enough to keep scottys motor together after all the abuse, should be fine in my lil tractor.

Carried 30 plastic/steel stackable chairs in the back of mine on Saturday to be transported to my sister's wedding ceremony, and it's the first time in almost 6 years of ownership that someone (other than my old man) has driven my car without me in it.

Forgot to get a photo.

I put a treadmill in the back of mine the other day - needed both front seats as forward as possible to make it fit! But it just squeezed in.

Today I put my partners old work toolbox in the back of the stag since he got a sexy new black Snap-On toolbox for work..

So now we have to remove all stickers and give her a good old high pressure wash off and make it look like its original red..

Had to take the wheels off to fit it... but it fit! :D

Riding low with that in there?

haha not really, My car is almost as stock as they come.. I can't really lower it because all my dogs total about 150kg so if I do, I won't get in the drive way :(

but it did feel nice with the weight in the back :P I will eventually get some sort of suspension but for now money is tied up elsewhere

It's still in there, and it looks like my car is actually HIGHER.. lol

(pardon the bird poop, I haven't washed it since the stag cruise the other day)

    • Did and sync timing with light 
    • Have you done the Ignition Sync Wizard in the AEM software?
    • Find out what RPM it was idling at with the IACV unplugged. It's very weird that the rpm didn't change at all, and then it stalled. When it stalls is it nearly like a switch off, like you've turned the engine off? Or is it more stutters and sputters and coughs to death over a few seconds? Or does the RPM just slowly keep going down and down? Have you done a test of trying to start it with the AFM unplugged? Does it still die?     If you Follow Josh's advice on using Nistune to check the voltages (which is a perfect method!) if you see anything out of wack voltage wise, THEN get the multimeter out and read the voltage directly at the sensor. If the two vary, then you're now looking for a wiring issue vs a sensor issue. So be aware, what the ECU sees, may not be what the sensor is actually saying too...
    • You very likely need to get it on a dyno and tune it. My assumption is, you've got an RB25DET tune in it, which has a different manifold, different injectors, and different cams as a minimum. What O2 sensor are you running?   When you say it runs extremely rich from idle all the way to redline, is this just free revving it you see that?
    • 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.
