getting 3rd party is a risk im willing to take cause in the 1.5 years of me driving there havnt been any damage or theft attempts on my car

if people cant afford to pay 3700 then they should atleast have alarm and immobilser which i have on my car, only thing i dont have is a pager which im gonna have to look into getting

WTF Jim,

Hope your car is found and returned to you.

Jap imports are easy targets when it comes to theft this is why an immobilizer is so important.

Bugger.

leave him alone mid life crisis...! good luck finding it. i will keep a look out.

who rattled your tin mook? i am entitled to my opinion i supose your another one without insurence if you took the time to read the post you will see i also said i hope he finds his car undamaged and intact . i was just pointing out the dangers of not having insurence. or a alarm or imobiliser without this things fitted and turned on you may as well leave the keys in the car with the motor running and the drivers door open

regards mid life crisis

you may as well leave the keys in the car with the motor running and the drivers door open

A bit like having a turbo timer with no alarm. One of the first modifications I made to my car after it landed was to remove the turbo timer and install a high quality alarm.

Sorry to hear about your loss coupe-this, I know what it feels like. The first brand new car I bought, an MY00 WRX, was stolen from my house a few years ago never to be seen again.

I agree with mid life crisis too; if you can't afford insurance/running costs/repairs of a particular car, don't buy it.

Hope you get it back.

And in my opinion you should leave the poor guy alone coz what are you his mother. Also you suppose wrong as i have full comp insurance and the top of the range viper pager alarm system. Look coupe-this probably should have had insurance and an alarm but he didn't so its too late for shoulda's. Sorry i just hate people telling me what to do or what i should have done.

One last thing, this topic is about trying to help coupe-this find his line. not argue about insurance and what he should have done. So just stick to the topic and stop whoring it. Start a new topic if you wanna rave on about insurance. i love a good debate.. hehe :O

No disrespect intended.

Police were contacted as soon as i dragged myself out of the dumbfounded ness thing that sorta is like, my car, dude, wheres my car. Only problem i didnt get stuck on an odd day with a tattoo of dude, or sweet on my back etc ...

end useless rant

third party...

Doesn't third party cover you for fire and theft?

Hey coupe-this, i live near you and i will look out for you too.

Try going down to elwood beach on a thursday night or any hot night for that matter, was there yesterday and saw a few cars that matched your description. The thief prob wouldnt be that stupid to take it cruising but you never know.

Good luck mate

I thought most Viper alarms weren't approved by insurers? (mostly because they offer remote start and/or no black wiring)

yeah nah just cars accepted it... the trick is to mount the unit behind the insturment cluster and route wires from there. a theif will have a hard time stealing the whole car as the cluster will have to be remove to gain access to the original wires to bypass the alarm. :)

    • I guess one thing that might be wrong is the manifold pressure.  It is a constant -5.9 and never moves even under 100% throttle and load.  I would expect it to atleast go to 0 correct?  It's doing this with the OEM MAP as well as the ECU vacuum sensor. When trying to tune the base map under load the crosshairs only climb vertically with RPM, but always in the -5.9 column.
    • AHHHH gotchaa, I'll do that once I am home again. I tried doing the harness with the multimeter but it seems the car needed a jump, there was no power when it was in the "ON" position. Not sure if I should use car battery jump starter or if its because the stuff that has been disconnect the car just does send power.
    • As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.  
    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack. 
    • Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
