im pretty sure it was a space thing. we discussed log manifold, 4-1, but the end of the day we didnt have much space to fit athe turbo in, so we went with two, with a knife edge into the turbo.

Base tune confirmed with dmd,

natro powered, ga15 throttle body, 370cc injectors (thanks in advance scotty).

all to do is hook up bov, and swap fuel for e85 when i arrive. i might run the tank to empty on the way there... keep a spare bit of unleaded in the car just incase... dont really wanna be draining fuel in the middle of the street!

ha.

almost didnt pull anythin.

she had a fender bender last night, my own fault. looked down at the speedo to check my speed (as you do every 20 seconds in vic or face life in prison) literally half a sec later i looks up and theres a rajab damn ute sat in the middle of the highway.

fortunately i was doing about 30, but the roads where a little greasy, skidded into him at about 10kph. i got a smashed head light (which i ve fixed already) and a dented bonnet. ill pick a second hand one up when i can.

he had bent bumper and a slightly bent tail pipe. inb4 5k repair bill.

micra is off the road until i can replace the punctured tyre i have (prob caused the skid) and fit the better brake pads, fingers crossed its going back to scottys on sat night/sunday so i can install the hd clutch and jun fly.

shit night last, coupled with the fact my abs module blew on the hsv.

its time like this we all have when we doubt our builds/cars and consider selling them. wife was ace and said dont worry about it, was nothing you could have done.

nistune received my ecu this morning, so i should have that back with a base tune to run the 370cc injectors by the 30th.....

Oh that sux major Muslim grenades man.

Sounds only very cosmetic though and glad it was not any worse.

Keep it going man, most of us here want to see the Abbey Snot Rocket chop some ricers.

thanks guys. it no where near as bad as im making out.

still first accident (my fault) in 12 years. i was so angry at my self.

oh well! imma keep fighting the good fight.

scotty will be happy to know all i could think about during the accident was protect the intercooler and turbo! i had enough time to steer out of the way to the left, thats why it only copped the headlight. not full front on.

WTF? Damn shame Platts. Didn't bend the turbo did it?

read the above mate. nah made contact at about 10kph, guy came off his brakes for me as well. nice chap. he said he saw it happening but couldnt move because i lancer pulled out on him.

oh well.

lol wait till your motor blows...

i mean, fingers crossed itll hold strong whilst in your hands. glad to hear it wasnt a large accident.

    • For fuelling the Haltechs have O2WB fuel controllers. Very useful for helping tuning VE and correcting for *small* mistakes. Of course if your injector/cam/trigger/sensor data is just wrong (or for a GTT which is not a GT) then you will get impossible reactions to things. I am sure you know this already but the reason people don't typically put haltechs (or any Aftermarket ECU) on GT's is because there's practically no real gains to be had - So this knowledge won't be commonplace.
    • Can someone tell me if the cracks seen in the rear sway bar bushings in these photo's is unacceptable from a roadworthy point of view?  
    • Shouldn't need a "base map" for anything other than guidance to ignition tuning. You just need the engine capacity right, the injector size right, and something, almost anything, for a VE map. On an NA engine, fuelling is almost completely a function of load signal & rpm. It should run and drive with a completely flat fuel map. It will be too lean under load, but that's easily fixed. We used to tune all ECUs without any base map. There were no such things (until someone had tuned a near stock engine on one, and then they had a "base map".
    • What did you actually buy/how much did it cost? When I got mine in like.. 2017...? 2019? the aim was to run Torque for gauges via ODB2 and things like Track Addict/Laptimers/Dashcam/Reversecam/Spotify etc. Mine never broke, but I wonder if you've got the same needs (it sounds like it). Cause I liked the idea of being able to do anything with it. That said, yours also cost 3x the cost of what I spent so... food for thought.  
    • For me there is a massive difference in manufacturer or big brand crippled android (Sony, Kenwood etc) vs the sort of thing I've installed here, which is basically just a tablet in DIN form factor with open Android, and the other model of course is mirroring - Android Auto/Carplay. I hate the locked down manufacturer and AA options where they decide what apps I'm allowed to install, including the Launcher but also importantly things like Ecutek (for this car) or Real Dash (Stagea) are not supported. Plus those crippled versions tend to be slower due to both overheads and lower spec hardware. On the other hand, when this breaks I'll likely be in trouble for support....but how is that different to owning an Infiniti anyway
