I hope all the butchering they had to do to the engine to make it 'similar' to the current dinosaur pushrod engines doesn't handicap it too much.

nissans pretty cluey, i think this car will make a nice daybut. its deffinately going to be a half decent race with nissan and merc taking part and about time the commonwhores and falc*nts got a run for thier money. Like the bloke said the Altima race car isnt far off the street edition where as the holden and fords have been chopped and changed so much they are hardly even resemble thier street versions.

You mean the body panels, right?

Because they've got a control chassis, control suspension, control brakes, aero equivalency, engine equivalency...

Oh, and if they made a RWD V8 Altima, I'm pretty sure there would be bogans galore in the local Nissan dealership straight away. Shit, even I'd be in there for a look.

Love the fact that the Altima will be in the Supercars. Can just imagine people getting hyped and going down to the dealership only to find that the only version of the Altima is a FWD 4 pot.

If only Nissan had an option of a RWD V8 sedan in their world wide lineup to choose from... oh, you mean they do under the guise of the Infiniti M56 in the US?

That was my first thought when I saw it too Aaron. So beautiful.

Also love the CF runners

Looks smick! I can't wait to see the whole thing together. Half of my work is killing to see how the erabus eclass will turn out

Well if your talking the current range of falcomms, then yes they have control everything like you said but its not they same as what you buy in the falcomm in the dealership. The only thing which are the same are some panels, lights and the ford or holden eblem.

      RB25DE NEO with Haltech ECU

      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.
