:werd: I was very impressed with the workshop and the staff. Will definately be giving them a chance with my car once the work begins. Anyone know personally what they're like at tuning SAFC's and PFC's?

Good to see workshops getting behind the social activities of their clients and potential clients.

yeah i had my car in there yesterday for a service and they found some problems that my old mechanic should have picked up on, it has to go back in some time next week to get more work  done to it,

i was talking to trent about cpu's and he said to wait a bit cause he is doing a wolf 3d install next week and he will tell me how it all goes, so i would guess thats yours chris hope it goes well.

you guys should be looking at using power fc or microtec for your rb 20 and 25s

its suited for the cars and is proven to work and make great power....

there is a laptop tuner of power fc for er33 gtst now also which is a lot better than the hand controller tunes...

hope this helps.... cheers,,,

Hey All,

I am going to be speaking to Trent this arvo - he is giving me an update on how my wolf3d install is going - so I’ll run possible start up dates by him then. But obviously before we put anything in stone we would need to know who exactly would be interested in attending etc so that we all know that it'll be worthwhile.

Also - as for the quality of work these guys do - I wouldn’t be sending my car there if it weren’t for the confidence I have in these guys. Trents own vehicle - 200SX features in the latest edition of Fast Fours - From memory it makes about 240 rwkw, has four stage boost control and I think it ran a high 12 low 13.

So for someone to have a good quality of work they need to have a car in HOT4's ? :werd:

Hey Melv,

Thanks for the stupid comment :D - it is good to see that there is some real constructive comments being made on the thread. Your deductive reasoning is purely original and I think unique to all the other individuals who no doubt read the post. Keep it up - originality is all we have. Also incase you misunderstood the theme of this post as well - I was being sarcastic :(

Oh and everyone else who asked about the wolf3d - it is the latest plugin - version 4.

My uncle’s, mates, brother Habib Genolopies, has a kebab shop. And out the back he has a “speed shop” He said he’ll do good work if you drive your car down, as no one knows GTR’s better then him.

      RB25DE NEO with Haltech ECU

      By Haggerty · Posted

      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.

      What should I do next to hold the head on

      By Gareth87 · Posted

      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.
