got done by Pettett yesterday, got defected Epa, fine for driving a restricted vehicle (on p's) and a fine for a unroadworthy car, and if i get caught driving my car again i gotta go to court. i was driving fine but he was being a prick and pulled me over, didnt even get breathalised, i know hes probably reading this as he told me he does, so Pettett and your buddies shouldnt you doing real cop work like catching thieves, busting ganags actually make vic a safer place to live in rather than just pull people over that aren't driving badly. i know im not allowed to drive it, i admit, but i dont drive bad and i only boost it up when LEGALLY dragging

yeh but there are "real" traffic and motoring jobs out there that should be attended to instead of hassling those abiding by the rules...

e.g. epa's should be given to old shtboxes blowing smoke

e.g. unroadworthy fines should be given to cars without panels

e.g. defects should be given out for reasons other than being an import (i got done for dvd screen..)

e.g. pullups should be done to people who aren't abiding by the traffic rules...

i know that driving over the power/weight limit is against the rules and im sure that is accepted. but its the hassles and the carefree slapping of offences by cops to citizens who have no say that is a little unfair...

fair enuff the vehicle is over the power/weight so fine for that... but why do they insist on spending an hour in their car before they come out, searching every crack in the car like we're criminals and adding a million fines for offences that are totalyl upto cop discretion...

Unfortunatly as has been said before.

We drive these cars around, and if we don't expect attention from the boys in blue then we are kidding ourselves.

As for driving a car which you aren't allowed to, well you are simply flaunting the law.

No offence here either, but krzysiu, I think you are mad driving that car on your P plates.

I mean a stock R33, they might let slip if you are being nice you them, but one that looks like yours, and so is obviously well modified, you are just asking to be put off the road.

Anyway, as I said, no offence. Just my $0.02

      RB25DE NEO with Haltech ECU

      By MBS206 · Posted

      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?

      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.

      Could it really happen......

      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...
