Just spoke to my mechanic, and he has had NO trouble tunning the idle on an RB26. The placement of the vaccum/boost hose on the plenum is critical. He plumbs it into an existing nipple on the bottom of the plenum, as he beleives the MAP is more stable there.

Wait until you get some decent sized cams.

Hey AL, was wondering where you got your Wolf 3D version 4 from and did they tune it???? ;)

I purchased the ecu from EAS Performance, Airport West (PM me for more details) and yes they have done all the tunning on the car. It is now running smoothly and am very happy with the results ;)

If you live in the East, go to Sabaddin (PM silva33 for address). He is also a Wolf distributor and have seen some very good tunes on various cars and ecu's.

I have never seen a problem in our workshop with the Version 4 controling multiple throttle bodies even with very large cams.

The V500 is an awsome ECU, It can even control costant changing cam timing. The list of things it can do is almost endless. Just wait until you see the software :ninja:

Dont blame the ECU if you cant set it up properly like alot of workshops do!

The v500 software is downloadable from www.wolfems.com.au so check it out. Has heaps of adjustments. The datalogging isn't that great though. It looks like they used the v500 software to make the v400 just by removing some features. That's probably why it crashes a lot with a v4 ecu and the datalogging doesn't work correctly.

The v500 does look like a great ecu.

      Much less twat-tastic. CF wheels are too garish for civilised use.

      From there, as the manual says....assembly is the reverse of disassembly, no tricks worth mentioning Much better (for me)

      In my case, the standard wheel I had was in good condition but the buttons had more wear, so I swapped them across from the original wheel from the car. The plastic rear cover is held on by 4 tabs, and once the wiring is removed you can get access to 2 screws on each side the hold the buttons in From there I just swapped the wiring over. What was interesting is the standard style wheel is 2.0kg but the carbon fibre one is 50% heavier at 2.9kg. It even has a weight inside the wheel at the top to make up for some sort of imbalance in the design. weird

      Once the airbag is off, to remove the steering wheel.... Undo the 2 plugs into the clock spring, and the horn connector from it's clip. Hit the 19mm nut with a rattle gun (preferably) or if you don't' have one, you probably want an assistant to hold the wheel in place while you use a breaker bar to undo the nut Then, screw the nut back on 3 turns, and pull the wheel sharply towards you. If that doesn't work hit it medium force with a rubber mallet on either side, or possible behind if you can get there. If that all fails (it shouldn't!) you might need a steering wheel puller

      So, to next task....the carbon fibre steering wheel was either an expensive factory option or a chinesium special. Either way, I don't like either the flat bottom or thick ring style, so it had to go So...to remove the steering wheel.... First, disconnect battery negative and stomp on the brake pedal for a few seconds. Then, remove the small circular covers on each side of the wheel's rear surround to uncover the airbag clips. You need to push something like a flat bladed screw driver through, to push the steel clip inwards and pull the side of the airbag forward. Once you've done the easy side, same on the centre console side. You can see the tab you are shooting for circled in red Then, disconnect the horn spade connector and for the yellow airbag plug you need to get something small under the black locking tab to pop it out, then the connector releases......airbag is off
