Mugabetown - Whoretownin' At It's Worst.


Recommended Posts

I did 120km yesterday on around 1/8 of a tank. Stock ecus are terribly rich at cruise. Skylines don't have to be terrible on fuel!

Mine gets about 9L/100km at cruise and about 10L/100km when I drive it around town. When I get around to a new ECU I'll definitely be getting a lot of attention paid the the cruise map settings.

Well know idea what mine us gonna be like..........but I have a sneakin suspicion it's not gonna be greatly fuel efficient

As long as it's better than Nicks 20L/100 for 200KW

But you all get more than me a week there is my problem :(

I had a dream I sold my car for 4500.... Woke up and went to ckeck my car was still there. Had me scared

Getting $4500 for yours would be a dream :P

Question... who has had a screamer pipe before? Ive always been against it due to driving my car a lot and it would be annoying. Now i wont be driving my car anywhere near as much im contemplating getting one for something different. As far as im aware there is no increase in performance having one..

I would think since your are releasing energy before the turbo there would be no performance gain. I know of someone in the Supra club with one but I don't know what she thinks of it other than she can't go to lakeside due to noise restrictions.

It will be ok, Sean pays attention to the cruise areas of the map in an attempt to keep fuel usage down, Your will be quite similar to mine I imagine.

The only advantage is if your exhaust is not flowing enough to cope with the extra volume of gas when the wastegate opens, in that instance it will allow you to control boost better.

    • 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.
