Wardski, you know they had quite an extensive poll on GTRlife forum, and I think they ended up with the result where 0.4% of people had any sort of issues with the tranny, and most of them were cars with extensive modifications and lot of track work. True, some cars were just road driven and they had issue but I don't think tranny will break if you just look at it :closedeyes:

If you want more than just noise out of a midpipe a tune is the way to go. But you don't need a tune par say, to fit a midpipe - its all post 02 sensors so no noticeable extra power.. I'm reluctant to tune in order to keep warranty should the tranny ever go (shuddup Domino! :P ) but post warranty I'll be sending the beast southward to willall for the full 09/10 renew kit.

What other little bolt ons would you suggest and just a tune in general does wonders in these things. I'd probably rather keep my panel filters instead of going pods to avoid unwanted attention. I was also worried about warranty then thought stuff it these cars are pretty reliable and if it goes it goes lol

I think you're right, but they say the same about the Bellhousing and dash cluster lights.. So far I've had the Bellhousing replaced, and in the long run, I know I'm probably being over-cautious but I'll be using the warranty as a break-in period then spend up on some serious gear later :)

I think I'm just going to get a Cobb off Martin and any other mods you's guys have apart from midpipes that are good value for money??

decatted downpipes and a catted midpipe is something lot of guys in US also do. Helps with the hot footwell

performance-wise, does this produce better results than a catted downpipe and decatted midpipe?

yes, more importantly spool is noticeably improved with catless downpipes

I think Cobb have no choice, as they have fallen well behind.

Very good to see they acknowledge it, and have a plan to address it.

Ecutek are about to release V3 of their software ref http://www.gtr.co.uk/forum/177206-litchfield-release-new-ecutek-software.html , currently in beta.

The new Motec as well as Syvecs has put additional pressure on Cobb.

    • Sure, but the result will put so little power to the ground it won't be able to move. Whatever your reason, it will be cheaper and more practical to sell the manual and buy an automatic
    • Hi! Is it possible to use and swap the RB25DET/RB25Neo manual gerbox on to my RB20DE Neo engine with an automatic transmission?
    • my current daily - BiTurbo Diesel SQ5 8R with a remap and some light cosmetic mods. Which is sitting in front of my old daily that hasn’t been driven in 7 years now, home to numerous redbacks no doubt. MK4 Golf GTI with a boser hood extension, air ride airbag suspension, factory RHD Xenon’s from the Japanese R32 and stubby electric mirrors (also from Japan) sitting on custom made 18x10” Work Meisters for the golf’s bolt pattern and offset. one day I’ll revive it as a project, pull the engine out, put some forged bits in, chuck a big turbo on it and tune it to somewhere around 250kw and call it a barn find to make millions off YouTube views. Till then, it is a good breeding home for redbacks and the boot is good for storing my Christmas tree for 11 months of the year.
    • Thanks for jumping in guys, suggested @Sbluatx post here for help. Was hoping one of the guys with a RWD stages could confirm if the tank was the same as the AWD one
    • I got another MAF and installed it. Idle misfire was still present. Finally got the tank low enough to refuel and did so. Did a short drive to warm the car up and no issues, pretty short drive. Going to attempt soon to take a longer drive to see. I don't think the MAF fixed it if anything, definitely thinking it was fuel related. As soon as I put fresh fuel in the car felt so much better. But, still need a longer test drive to verify. I'll report back once done.  I'm definitely going to be getting monitoring and tuning parts soon as my next upgrade (decided on the link after talking with my tuner), just been real tight with just purchasing the car and sudden onset of issues. I've also ordered a new exhaust stud kit and gasket to fix that obvious problem. Once it's back up to par I'll start with the goodies
