Well Dezz the reality is that even slashing their pensions and entitlements etc would make a minuscule difference to the overall books. Not to say I am for it just the reality.

The unions on the other hand butcher and stifle growth through onerous conditions and wage growth expectations (demands) ie train drivers .. What next $200k a year? Gimme a spell.

Cut the fkers, maybe then we'd have politicians who want to be in the job to make a difference and not for the pay packet / pension / expense claims.

It's really hard to buy that a politician is any way in touch with most of the population when they live within the upper 10% of it. I believe they start off with good intentions, but the things they do to get office, the deals they make and the souls they sell change them into power hungry ego tripping cretens.

You'd have to be pretty stupid to take a paycut to save your employer money when they could just sack you whenever it suited them

Because companies just sack people for fun and no other reason

Anyone truly worried about getting sacked should consider that they are perhaps a dud

+1 have been involved in the selection of people to sack due to budget cuts. It's the duds which let go first. (Or who the manager doesn't like) #workpolitics

Nail on the head

Yeah but on the flip side a majority of American politicians are extremely wealthy and the system is no better

Not sure what the answer is

Yeah, i get that... royal kingdoms of years past being an example... my point was it will always fail when a nutcase get in... (or the guy thats in becomes a nutcase)

This. But didn't you put a 26 in yours?

The 25 is the superior engine in almost every way save for .1 litre displacement

Not even the throttle bodies and no crossover pipe can save it from that debate

But people want it because GTR engine, even though putting it in a car where the engine is the only thing GTR about it

Nah still have a 2.5 Neo motor

Stock RB26 still be faster than your engine Tony :P

Probably since its not really working at the moment :(

Was curious mainly cause my engine exploded, and I know yours kind of did, and kind of went back, and kind of has issues, so I have a vested interest in your car also working right ;)

Getting flex fuel right though, man... requires mastery and a lot of patience, or a f**k load of money paying a tuner to have a lot of time to spend on it

    • 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.
    • Thanks for the replies everyone. Definitely a coolant push. Oil catch can is empty and always has been. As the engine is out now I'll be having a good look over things. I do have some detonation on the piston tops from a trigger issue back about 5 years ago. I felt it and shut off then bought a new ecu and changed the trigger. Never been an issue since. It never hurt the power, its made almost 80hp more since that incident but I will pull the bearing caps to take a look. If the bearings are damaged I will do a bottom end refresh. Head is being re conditioned at the moment and the block will be cleaned and checked to ensure it's flat. I'll go with a kameari gasket and see how it ends up. The other thing I'm not super keen on is the cylinder colours. I suspect this is from the inlet manifold. The plan will be to put it back together, retune and then stick a plazmaman billet inlet on it and retune. I'm happy with the power, if it makes a little more, then great, but I would rather just make everything more efficient at this stage.
    • Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...
    • Does it also misfire equally when revving?   Josh is very correct in what you should do. The coilpack harness wiring loom itself is a known problem due to its age and the number of heat cycles it has gone through. Throwing parts at a vehicle to diagnose the issue isn't a smart or good way to do it. Secondly, you may have a bad coil pack, you pop replacements in, they fix that issue, but messing with the harness breaks it, so the issue persists. So now you think "well it wasn't the coil packs" and have to continue chasing your tail, potentially swapping back in your shit coil packs and returning the good ones (yes, I've seen people do this because 'it wasn't the problem' and they want to save money). And suddenly, you've got two issues with the same symptoms...   Diagnose, don't use the spare parts shotgun.
