Thanks for the interest guys...We always like having clubs come for tours as some really nice cars seem to fill our carpark. We will have a couple of photographers attending to shoot the meet so we should get some cool shots from it.

in terms of the talks itself. We are happy to be guided by you on this. One thing i have asked the guys to talk about is oil issues with Straight 6 motors, sometimes spending 2K on a Nismo pump isnt going to solve the issue like you thought it would. We are also going to do some work on E85 oils. This is a big issue right now as some of the biggest oil companies in the world dont have an E85 oil.

what else do you want to hear about? the talks go for about an hour, Then we have dinner and do a tour of the facility. We will also be handing out some sample products so let me know which oils you would prefer so it makes our job a bit easier.

See you all next week.

Thanks Dawzey!

The question I would like answered is:

what oil temps does Nulon like to see their oils run at. So minimum temp, maximum temp and the ideal temp to be running at. Also what effects does it have on the oil if you are running the temps to hot or cold?

Perfect question... i could answer it now, but where is the fun in that.

Another question i have is, How many of you are running E85?

I am and I know a fair few others who do as well. Very interested to talk about E85 oils

Hi Guys...

We would like to postpone this event for one week if possible and run it on Wednesday the 18th if it is OK with you guys? (One week delay).

This will allow us to add a few members that would be missing out on this event due to the timing, if this is a problem feel free to PM me and discuss and ill see what we can do. This will also help Nulon prepare and provide a better event for us all.

Can you please confirm that Wednesday the 18th is OK asap.

I am aware this is very short notice and hope it works out for all...

Cheers,

Mat

    • 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.
