Hehehe - I know what you mean - they're too many great cars to have and not enough time, money and garage space to own them all! :rolleyes: Only option is to buy, drive and sell often. Only trouble is though, the paper work is a right pain in the butt - especially getting landlords to sign parking permission slips :P

...hope she makes 220-230awkw with the new HKS SA CPU, the old F-Con V was too restrictive.

Justin you coming tomorrow?

On the dyno today she made [email protected] all the way to 7000rpm, no boost drop. A bit more than what the old CPU was tuned at. But still short of running 1.5bars, due to the injectors cutting out around 4000rpm for a split second. Not sure what the problem is, we know it ain't the CPU or the sensors. Back on the dyno she goes on Monday.

edit: I think I found the problem...stupid me!

Can`t you just give the evo to rezz as a going away present? :)

He wishes...a limited production car! :)

Just hand it over mate...

You KNOW the first thing I'd do is karate kick those stock mirrors off, then karate chop that back wing in half and sell it on Yahoo, then get some decent black rims and some decent black aero mirrors :)

Which is why you should buy your own :), I like the stock look :)

Yeah time to move on.... it's like being a kid in a candy shop here though, so I think 1 year max before selling and buying smething different!

Justin, how about an RS200 with HKS bolt on turbo kit or buy one with a turbo already fitted. Still RWD, newish which what you really want right...avoid the headaches of things falling of old cars.

Yeah right, I just want something newer... and not a whale! This is the problem, I don't want to go the extra for an R34 because for that money I'd prefer an FD3S, which leaves me with a late model R33. I just don't dig the whales... and R32s are too old in Japan terms as Ikeri told me last Sunday... *sniff* :)

Dave, you can't comment all your cars are new...the R32s are getting long in the tooth.

Justin is keen on the Evo, I believe because they are newer, 4WD and being able to extract 250awkw not rwkw from a factory car with very little money. Which would be more than sufficent for anyone on the street . The Evo is pretty good value when you only have to spend money basically on a subcom and EBC to achieve this! Course one would change the airfilter and exhaust. Compared to extracting power out of Skyline's factory setup with a ceramic turbo achilies heal. New turbo, new I/C, new oil cooler, new management, EBC, new exhaust = big $$$.

Yeah... how'd you know I had only 1 friend in the whole universe?

Batsuman is a loner...how could he hide his identity if everyone knew who he was in Japan? However Batsuman has many admirers. As his butler and driver, I've already hire someone trustworthy to fill my place, however this person does not have an Evo which is why Batsuman needs to built a new Evomobile Spec II :(. The GT-Rezz is still under development.

OK, the secrets out...Justin (a.k.a Batsuman / a.k.a Rezz) has decided to forego the Evo for something more in-keeping with his tastes. The GT-Rezz has run into technical difficulties (due a national shortage of duct tape, without which essential body mods cannot be completed) and this has left but one choice. So, without further pre-amble, I give you the Batsumobile (Beatmobile :D)...

See here in these exclusive test shots:

660cc of Raw power :D

And remember folkes...you saw it here first....on the SAU :D

:(:D:rofl::D:rofl::D:):D

    • 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.
