cheers Frosty. 1990 Ti model with manual conversion, electrics all work, replaced original cut springs and shocks as it was sitting on the ground and the shocks were 100% rooted.

Sure it looked cool being lower.. but not practical as i couldnt even get in and out of my drive way properly.. eg below (got beached maybe once or twice and the cat got hammered, eventually blew a gasket)

30, more torque, cheaper. decent turbo setup will just defeat a 20... Plus a 30 is already in there?

this.

find a manual conversion kit.

will end up being around the same price as a 20 swap.

just de pigying my 32 fixing all the faults and legalising it :P

if anyone ever has a problem with oil filling there sparkplug galleys in rb##det because of some dead shit thinking gasket goo will do.. ( n i meen fill like submerge ur spark plugs compleatly)

my method was a shit tone of degreaser shove it right in there and sponge it up with a rag and string it out, keep going til its as cleen as u canon all 6 galleys, and then degreaser and compressed air til nic n cleane and leave it to dry i repeted all the prosess 3 times for all 6 galleys that was enoigth, when i was blowing it out i covered up the bay, exterior and window etc completely only exposing the head of the rb, so yeah dont leave ur head covers unsealed corectly for any drastic amount of time guy$ :P i really made sure it was clean i coukdnt risk and bit going into the bore and seizing it when i change the plugs abd it was just nasty and probly somewhat flamible

    • 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.
