is that the full on drag car with a HKS T62?

you cant compare that thing to nicks car, thats just unfair.

We cant legitimately compare. but we can use it to troll Nick.

Nick will say its faster....for now, and be all mysterious and shit and we will all go back to not caring

i reckon. so now i will spend half my life driving to the southside to see everyone.

luck of the draw for the rental applications i submitted. this one went through first and time was running out so i had to take it.

the real pisser is going to be driving from Paddington to Sherwood and then to the Mater every Tuesday morning to take mum for chemo...

So what ur saying is, it's ok for your motor to change something to allow much more air into the engine but it's not ok in my case.... Hmm

How did I say that? Stock turbo, stock injectors, unopened motor. Good tuning, good sum of OEM parts :)

No.... If u haven't noticed I'm never happy unless I'm annoying someone else

This appears to be true...

Northside peeps aren't too bad, well most of us anyway :) That drive would be a dampener tho...

welcome to the cool side of town. Need a hand on the weekend?

Nick will say its faster....for now, and be all mysterious and shit and we will all go back to not caring

..... For now

But no seriously my car will never run an 8 that's mental

Thanks Smelly :P

You will have to come around for a drink and say hello sometime and prove that y'all aren't such a bad sort.

Thanks Andy. She went for her first treatment today but had an allergic reaction and is still there. Was meant to be a quick 3 hour session. :(

cool, this fact remains to be seen. Umm....I should be alright for moving I think but thank you for the offer.

Shit. That sucks re: allergic reaction.

If you need a hand with anything, let me know. :)

I'm going to throw it out there that Mike's old Z would eat your abomination on the strip. And I think that he may have spend a little less on his car overall as well :P

That's not a fair fight, and to be honnest, I don't think I would have spent less lol

least nick doesnt need to take the engine out to swap his plugs tho.....

I am getting the biggest urge to single the unicorn, though with defects going the way they are perhaps I would be better off staying twins and putting the stock air box back in.

Hmm *ponders*

That's not a fair fight, and to be honnest, I don't think I would have spent less lol

Since when is fair a conceivable option when dealing with Nick? He brings us down to his level and beats us with experience.

That my friend, is not fair :P

Thanks Smelly :P

Sucks about the reaction!!!

Haha knew it wouldn't be long until someone called me Smelly! We are gathering at Z German Club thursday night if you wish to come, there will be some of us north siders there :)

She was actually lhao at you via PM... Ouch

I must learn not to subconciously send PM's always gets me in trouble...

Shit. That sucks re: allergic reaction.

By anthing he also means more than happy to drink beers, just incase you thought he may be the not drinking kind...

    • @Murray_Calavera  If I were an expert I wouldn't be in here looking for assistance.  I am extremely computer literate, have above average understanding on how things should be working and how they should tie together.  If I need to go to a professional tuner so be it, but I'd much rather learn and do things myself even if it means looking for some guidance along the way and blowing up a few engines. @GTSBoy  I was hoping it would be as simple as a large vacuum leak somewhere but I'm unable to find anything, all lines seem to be well capped or going where they need to be, and when removed there is vacuum felt on the tube.  It would be odd for the Haltech built in MAP to be faulty, the GTT tune I imported had it enabled from the start, I incorrectly assumed it was reading a signal from the stock MAP, but that doesn't exist.  After running a vacuum hose to the ECU the signal doesn't change more than 0.2 in either direction.   I'll probably upload a video of my settings tomorrow, as it stands I'm able to daily drive, but getting stuttering when giving it gas from idle, so pulling away from lights is a slow process of revving it up and feathering the clutch until its moving, then it will accelerate fine.  It sounds like I need to get to the bottom of the manifold pressure issue, but the ignition timing section is most intimidating to me and will probably let a pro do that part.  Tomorrow I'll try a different vacuum line to T off of, with any luck I selected one that was already bypassed during the DBW swap. @feartherb26  I do have +T in the works but wanted to wait until Spring to start with that swap since this is my good winter AWD vehicle.  When removing the butterfly, did it leave a bunch of holes in the manifold that you needed to plug?  I thought about removing it but assumed it would be a mess.   I notice no difference when capping the vacuum line to it or letting it do its thing.  This whole thing has convinced me to just get a forward facing manifold when the time comes though.
    • Update: tested my spark plugs that are supposed to be 5ohms with a 10% deviation and one gave me a 0 ohms reading and the rest were 3.9ohm<, so one bad and the others on their way out.
    • 9" wheels are a little too wide for a RWD 32. They can fit. People have put R33 GTR wheels on 32s for years and years. But they are a very tight squeeze. This has been known for about 30 years. As I said - there is no difference between a 17 and an 18 in terms of what will fit. The rolling diameter needs to stay about the same as stock - not very much larger. If you increase that, you will start to have problems. If you increae rolling diamater at the same time as yo increase width, you will have problems earlier. as 9" wheels are pushing the boundaries already, you would need to be careful with tyre choice. I would put 8.5s on the front of mine, but would expect problems with 9s.
    • post up screen shots of your injector tables
    • Diagnostic flow for a code 21 says check signal at the ECU pins, on a voltmeter of some kind it should read 0.1V at idle, 0.12V cranking, 0.15-0.25V at 2000 rpm. Check each coil such that +1, -3 is infinite or very high resistance, -3, +2 should do the same. (-1, +3), (+3, -2), (+1, -2), and (-1, +2) should all be somewhere between 0 ohms and high resistance. If you trace the path from the coil pin all the way back to the ECU in the diagram the resistance you measure at the coil vs connected to the harness should be pretty much the same.
