I'm Coming To Perth.. My (tko's) R32 Is Coming Too


Recommended Posts

I'm *finally* leaving Japan after 5 long years and will come back to Perth... don't say it! I know Japan is really cool etc, etc, etc, but when you gotta go, you gotta go (no I'm not running from the J-cops! :lol: )

I remember meeting Nizmo and others at Little creatures about 1.5 years ago, so I'd really like to meet up with the SAUWA guys again.

I've actually sold the wine red R32 to Trent at TKO (he just happens to be my little bruvvah :ph34r:) so the R32 will become a demo car for TKO! I on the other hand had to make do with an S13 Silvia... I know, I know, talk about 'down-grading'! But anyway, I've got some plans for the S13.

Here are some pics of the R32, it's almost ready to get shipped out of Japan:

And the Silvia :)

My wife is coming too (in December) so I hope some of the SAUWA chicks can teach her how to drive a manual! hahaha :lol:

hrrrm.  I suppose I could catch up with you again rezz, although this time I hope you don't expect me and ken to look after the japanese girls again!! :ph34r:

Hahaha... I've still got the photos from that outing mate.

@ tigeryas: I'm sure I can help you out with some Japanese cussing etc...

@ Gts_evilution: I tried to drift *myself* only once, and that was in a friends R32 here in Kobe... as for teaching drifting, maybe you could teach me!

@ miss_petepie: How does 7am on the 22nd Sept at Perth International sound? :lol:

hahhaha i will go to a local primary school and get them to knock something up as an exercise for them :ph34r:

Hahaha... like this?

You can make fun on the sticker on the back of my car which says fanstic power in jap (dam online translor didnt work ahahah)

I think a Cruise is in order for Rezz return what you say people? maybe a sunday one again with a BBQ at the end

coming back to the fun and excitement of perth huh?????

You betcha!

... are you implying Perth is boring??? Well we'll have to make it more exciting then won't we :)

Might actually make an appearance at a SAUWA event, just for you rezz :)

adrian :)

Yeah come along!

Maybe when our cars land it might be better for a cruise? Trent and myself will want to 'christen' our cars in style with a big convoy of Skylines down on the South Perth foreshore... eeerr... for sure... :ph34r:

Dont get caught in customs Rezz - declare your YEN!

On this Aussie show 'Border Security' this english teacher from Japan didnt declare his cash and he acted like he didnt know how much Yen his cash converted to.... and it was something like $30 000 AUD - what a dumb arse.

and Welcome back :ph34r:

I think a Cruise is in order for Rezz return what you say people? maybe a sunday one again with a BBQ at the end

Haha bbq? we can get Rezz to cook up some teriyaki chicken, tempura, sushi, etc etc... i'm sure you learnt all of that as well as your extensive vocabulary in japanese profanity... :lol:

and when he teaches you drift it's all gonna be in japanese too...

@ Sneeza: No worries bud because I haven't got any money! :lol:

@ totoro: I look forward to meeting you (and your car) too... might have to ask you about the Japanese community in Perth too... if there is one? My wife will obviously want to meet some local Japanese for a bit of support.

@ tigeryas: I can't cook man... maybe Okonomiyaki and Takoyaki (Osaka stylez) but thats about it! And my spoken Japanese is crap too!

    • Have you done the Ignition Sync Wizard in the AEM software?
    • Find out what RPM it was idling at with the IACV unplugged. It's very weird that the rpm didn't change at all, and then it stalled. When it stalls is it nearly like a switch off, like you've turned the engine off? Or is it more stutters and sputters and coughs to death over a few seconds? Or does the RPM just slowly keep going down and down? Have you done a test of trying to start it with the AFM unplugged? Does it still die?     If you Follow Josh's advice on using Nistune to check the voltages (which is a perfect method!) if you see anything out of wack voltage wise, THEN get the multimeter out and read the voltage directly at the sensor. If the two vary, then you're now looking for a wiring issue vs a sensor issue. So be aware, what the ECU sees, may not be what the sensor is actually saying too...
    • 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?
    • 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.
