Hi Ants :action-smiley-069: You coming on the cruise on Sunday?

Sadly, I cannot. This weekend is busy with my fathers birthday on Sat and friends daughters 1st bday party on Sunday that we have been invited to.

Will try and see if can come up for a monthly meet and dinner though - it's not that easy FTM with a young family

lol - probably a good thing then eh?

Got my car back!

2hp short of the 400 club. At least i can be a big boy in the 300hp club!

There was a bit of dicking around involved (fuel lines falling off, AFM's not balancing, forgot to change the fuel filter, that sort of stuff) but EFI sorted it and the car is driving a lot better than it was all round. Valve springs are starting to be an issue at this point and i'm not looking to do any more engine work, so that's where she's going to stay for a couple of years. Pretty pleased at it (I mean, 450hp would have been great, but it is what it is: 20 year old engine), next stop, more suspension and brakes.

Very nice mate.

398hp is 296rwkw - its a good number for a standard RB26 and probably one of the more useable ones too lol

As long as it is all realiable, I think you must test all them horses out ;)

Good stuff Pete! How many boosts???

Sadly, mine is still having issues :( Won't be running at the test and tune on sat that's for sure, but have a zed guru coming round on sat to hopefully get to the bottom of it

My motto is Fix it or F**k it. haha Sick of f**king it, didn't buy this car to be troubleshooting for weeks!

Mates motto is just fix it lol

Plus he can tune, and runs a restore and modification business ;)

    • No. I think it might be the AFM. Hence the use of the terms "swaptronics", which implies the use of swapping out electronics for the purpose of diagnosis. It's about the only way to prove that a small/niggling/whatever problem with an AFM or a CAS or similar is actually caused by that AFM/CAS/whatever. A known good item swapped in that still gives the same problem is likely to be caused somewhere else. They're all the same. Spraying AFMs with cleaner is an each way bet between cleaning it and f**king it.
    • Oh wow! This might actually work amazingly. Do you know the ratio of the diff? I was told the only thing you need to make sure of is if the front & rear diff ratios are the same. Ours is a 4.083 Thanks!
    • You think its the AFM? I know its a common issues on R32s. I find it coincidental how this issue raised right after cleaning the fuel system. As everything except the fuel system was fine before. I tried running it with the IACV unplugged but did not notice a difference and still stalled. However, the RPM gauge is not in the cluster right now, so I will need to connect the laptop again and use Nistune to check the RPM. I will check this weekend.

    • Have you done 10x restarts since it came on?
