DUDE your car just sucks full stop ;)

Sell the lemon and stop spending money on it already and buy another freaking bike!!!

Clutch is slipping need a new one , installing turbosmart treg pro putting in mines rom ...

more boost

Car is being a bitch has some airflow meter issues, now is all sorted not its runs great but every now and then it will just run fine then stop for no reason? turn the key and its away with no issues?? WEIRD, in process of cleaning injectors any other ideas??

my new 48mm wastegate arrived today so that is on and the gearbox is back in. Just need oil for the box and get to test out 400rwkw on the street :)

You have no idea how much im hating you right now :wave:

Good luck with the shake down :)

Not a lemon, it was fine untill i touched it. LOL.

I can't sell it, cos it owes me money. If i sell it i would b lucky to get 16K for it. LOL.

:happy: 16k...

Tell em he's dreaming!!!

My clutch is fried. Getting Married in 2 months. Looks like my car will be in the garage for a while :(

Another one bites the dust :(

Thats what you get for letting your ms's drive your car James :O

:P unless she drives it harder than him :O

Not a lemon, it was fine untill i touched it. LOL.

can you put it back to dead stock?, i know itd be painful but atleast then youll know if its something youve done or not. how much was the central20 ecu?. if all else fails you can borrow my car soon (i know mine is running sweet :( ) and switch a few things to see if it may fix it. also write a list of every single sensor youve replaced etc (inc mods) so you can test each one individually. Also have you cleaned your aac valve thingy?

Hay Toff.

back to stock, humm, not really, well time wise anyway. I have most of the parts, but the shear time invilved would be impossible to do so.

What i have done:

Fuel pump, and fuel filter. Going to put a new one in tonight and check that the antidrain valve on the tank is working.

New 02 sensor, have old, can try it, but i recon it won't make anyy differance

New ECU temp sensor, old was seamed ok, but the new one is definalty better, replace new with old, made no differance.

I have cleaned the AAC valve a few times now, and checked opperation, and i think that is working ok, i can adjust it with consults and it changes the rpm and so foth

Cold start valve, has not been checked as yet, i will see if i can test it properly tonight.

FMIC, there was no issues after this was fitted.

The central 20 ECU, ran the car fine for ages, it only started to be a dog in the last 2-3 weeks. Stock one sold, so i can't test that.

I have not checked injectors as shuch, i want to try all the things i can do for free, as i am sick of chucking money at the thing.

I am aslo going to check the radiator fluid to see if i don't have a head gasket problem anywhere, last night my water was low, which seamed strange, but the car doesn't blow any steam, or smell sweeet, or bubble through the radiator.

Kinda getting pissed off, i don't really want to spend more money on the thing, wife getting a bit enoyed and so forht.

I did a consult check and the the error code 13 and 21 came up.

13 is ecu temp sensor, started 13 times without this??? Going to investigate.

21 ignition signal, started 9 times with this, i pressume it's from when i did a compression check on the car, hence why no ignition source.

Commpression was an almost dead even 150psi accross all the cylinders, have not performed a leak down as yet.

This morning once again, the car was a odg to start. Howeve, if i just tap the accelerator on startup, the car goes fine, no splatter or anything.

So i am leaning towards a fuel delivery problem or something to do with cold start.

Anyway, toffy do you have a radiator pressurisation thing, to see if i have a blow headgasket. I hope i don't, don't want to spend more money on it. Should have taken the extra warranty. LOL.

    • You’ll be very upset when you bust that too not to mention the gearing totally sucks. Don’t do it.
    • Is the panel filter one that is oiled? Have you ever cleaned or touched the AFM?
    • So.... the K&N air box thingo was too big, ended up gifting it to a mate, well, by gifting it he actually supplied food and beer at the pub,  which was nice, as it will not sit on a shelf in the garage for the next 10 years I did trim up some of the existing stuff to neaten it all up and gave it some wrinkle paint, unfortunately it currently has a used and abused mish mash of different types of hose clamps, 4 big fat T bolt type (shit), and a few normal clamps of vairing sizes and brands, but..... only until the 6 constant tension black worm clamps that I ordered from EFI solutions turn up next week Currently the current hose clamps are triggering me hard, LOL Is this the final version, probably not, I really want just 2 silicone pieces, a straight bit of silicone from the filter to the MAF is easy and will happen as soon as I head into Just Jap tomorrow, the problematic part is a 30° silicone bend from the MAF to the TB that I can connect the engine breather from the head, I found that there are bulk head fittings for boat bilge pumps that should work, but until I can get a 30° silicone bend the alloy pipe, and the 11ty thousand hose clamps, are there for the foreseeable future 4 hose clamps are golden, 6 are grudgingly acceptable, the 8 currently holding it all together is just taking the piss    I've also ordered 60 more retaining wall blocks for the front yard, I mis-gonculated the height that was required to get above the base of the Photinia's (red robin's) that are the hedge behind the front fence, currently it is 2 blocks high, and about 1/2 a block short, so going 3 blocks high will be above the base of the red robin's, and allow some room for mulch
    • It is the stock air box with the panel filter. Everything else is stock except the exhaust at this point, as I also went back to the cleaned 270cc injectors. I will check the RPM when the IACV is unplugged and report back.
    • As MBS suggested if this is happening when the engine is cold you're going to want to remove the intake air regulator and verify resistance + that the shutter is physically opening and closing. At -20C should be fully open, 20C half open, over 60C fully closed. At 20C should be 70-80 ohms. For AAC valve testing using a Consult cable see if you can raise and lower the idle by commanding more or less AAC duty cycle. Hopefully it's pretty linear as well, shouldn't be like 30% AAC valve is barely idling and 40% is 1500 rpm.
