2012 XR6 (Mark 2 from late 2011 onwards)

Or get the ex taxi on there for 2k LOL

Take a look at S2000 prices on carsales. Its mental. I thought evos were bad... S2000 gonna have GTR e-peen syndrome in like 5yrs time.

Prices range from $18k to $50k. With a car with basicallly no added extras

I was considering buying about 7 years ago when they weren't old as shit, thrashed out and seemed like decent sports cars for the money

Considering an Abarth Spider is nearly on par for performance, 15 years newer, more features and nearly the same price...f**k the S2000

At least the GTR has history and a marquee to it, along with outperforming that car in every way...the S2000 was the pinnacle of 2L N/A performance in 1999 and that's all it was. Honda boys are still tossing over the 9000 jerks per minute and vtec.

I would of kept my GTR longer if it wasn't rusty AF

Shoulda kept it anyway rust is now acceptable in R32s and soon will be in 33s lol

    • I saw you mention this earlier and it raised a red flag, but I couldn't believe it was real. Yes, the vacuum signal should vary. It is the one and only load signal from the engine to the ECU, and it MUST vary. It is either not connected or is badly f**ked up in some way.
    • @Haggerty you still haven't answered my question.  Many things you are saying do not make sense for someone who can tune, yet I would not expect someone who cannot tune to be playing with the things in the ECU that you are.  This process would be a lot quicker to figure out if we can remove user error from the equation. 
    • If as it's stalling, the fuel pressure rises, it's saying there's less vacuum in the intake manifold. This is pretty typical of an engine that is slowing down.   While typically is agree it sounds fuel related, it really sounds fuel/air mixture related. Since the whole system has been refurbished, including injectors, pump, etc, it's likely we've altered how well the system is delivering fuel. If someone before you has messed with the IACV because it needed fiddling with as the fuel system was dieing out, we need to readjust it back. Getting things back to factory spec everywhere, is what's going to help the entire system. So if it idles at 400rpm with no IACV, that needs raising. Getting factory air flow back to normal will help us get everything back in spec, and likely help chase down any other issues. Back on IACV, if the base idle (no IACV plugged in) is too far out, it's a lot harder for the ECU to control idle. The IACV duty cycle causes non linear variations in reality. When I've tuned the idle valves in the past, you need to keep it in a relatively narrow window on aftermarket ecus to stop them doing wild dances. It also means if your base idle is too low, the valve needs to open too much, and then the smallest % change ends up being a huge variation.
    • I guess one thing that might be wrong is the manifold pressure.  It is a constant -5.9 and never moves even under 100% throttle and load.  I would expect it to atleast go to 0 correct?  It's doing this with the OEM MAP as well as the ECU vacuum sensor. When trying to tune the base map under load the crosshairs only climb vertically with RPM, but always in the -5.9 column.
    • AHHHH gotchaa, I'll do that once I am home again. I tried doing the harness with the multimeter but it seems the car needed a jump, there was no power when it was in the "ON" position. Not sure if I should use car battery jump starter or if its because the stuff that has been disconnect the car just does send power.
