Mugabetown - Whoretownin' At It's Worst.


Recommended Posts

Its Ok. I have survived multiple happy laps at lakeside! White GTR and all.

You have to be a special type of dumb to have an incident at happy laps. Sprint days are another matter however.

exactly mate.

You would be fine around lakeside ants. Just go at a pace you're comfortable with. I did a few lakeside happylaps and had no dramas and last time I checked I had a white 32 gtr

But have you checked it this morning ;)

Well I haven't heard it start all morning, am at home today as I fu*ked up my ankle playing touch footy last night. But am still going to hobble out to check on her

What ant's said, Externally it is all cosmetic, a few cracks in the bar and the alignment of the spaces between body parts is f**ked. Beaver tail has been pushed in and the boot has been impacted into slightly. Unsure of any impact on the mechanical side of it at this point.

After checking the clutch fan it really looks like its stuffed. I think the damaged was caused when the fan blades came into contact with the either the belt or a pulley under high RPM. (not my doing).

Looks like the cost to replace with a new one is approx. $550 bucks just for the clutch itself. The Fan costs apporx $100.

Sext's received. I agree it doesnt look too bad in the pictures but its never good getting pumped from behind..... :ph34r::ph34r:

yeah its not Scotty. The only problem is that with things like that is that you dont fully know the extent of the damage untill you look deeper.

Plus the the whole inconvenience of everything is hurtful and when it happens to your baby............well it hurts even more.

But in time, I think that the B@mobile ( :P ) will be back in action.

To be honest that sounds like something that shouldve been noticed and fixed while it was in the shop.

    • 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.  
    • I don't know any details, but I really wouldn't be surprised if they do it as a LHD only version, at least initially.
