I joined this forum under the impression that you lot like to go out with your cars to enjoy them. Oh how wrong was I now that being said what is it that you lot fear the most. A paint chip or someone else enjoying your car after they pry it out of your cold dead hands. Ffs let's get real we have nice cars but don't want to have fun with them or put kms on them. Go Join the vintage club and dust collection. This is what really f**ks me off people having nice cars who refuse to use them what they were intended for.



Unfortunately I have flight to catch on Saturday and I'll be back on Thursday - Otherwise I would love to join. It's just a bad timing.
I was sick for 2 weeks , and flying out to visit one and only mom that I have.

Sorry !
For the others who are interested it will be late July

Is it really that big a deal?

I'd love to spend my days off driving my car, fishing in my boat and countless other fun stuff but a family, new house and countless DIY projects doesn't leave much time. Everyone has their reasons for not going out all the time including many of us who work weekends. I've had my skyline for 15 years and had plenty of fun but nowadays it's in moderation

Always take my gtr out. It's my daily when I'm home. People always say so should garage it and only drive it ok n special occasions but meh, I like other people enjoying it too. I had a 6 year old kid sitting in my drivers seat loving it. Kids parents were rapped that I said just chuck him in there and let him have a play. [emoji23]

Its what we do, garage queena lol... personally i dont give a toss about stone chips, dings or dents. Most have seen the patch on my bumper, looks can be deceiving ? lol... what realy anoys me is the roads and people that use them, driving manner and ability are bismal at best. It looks like a gd run tho and il come along for a laugh.

On the upside, my rb30 block and crank are ready at the machine shop ?

I wish I could have all the money in the world and just drive around...unfortunately adulting is hard, 2 jobs doesn't leave me very much time for anything else. Late July may work, but we shall see.

Hey, I'll probaqbly (99% sure) I will be popping in to your Restaurant this Sunday night?

Audi gets traded for the Prado tomorrow. GXL 150 facelift 2017 made and 2017 model. Here comes weekends away in the bush [emoji1303]

Fully awesomeness. I've never owned a new car. 2 in the hand = 1 in the bush apparently! It needs a 3" exhaust a hi-flow cat a lift kit. Bollocks just leave it stock. The engineers at Toyota are way smarter than us! Hmm maybe xcept kizza and trevs! Well done mate should be years of trouble free motoring. Got a d-max as work car. 50'000 so far bullet proof. Turbo diesel power. Maybe a fmic? Haha

    • 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.
