i looked down my driveway and what do i see...a nice stream of green liquid! yayyy new water pump! no car for the weekend...mechanic said $300 to fix it. dam these thing always happen on fridays so u dont have the car all weekend. :)

I would be very happy with it only being $300 to fix.

Its quite a big job replacing the waterpumps on these RB's.

You require coolant... The water pump, there's almost $150 in parts.

Then you have to remove the radiator, all fan belts, harmonic balancer, timing belt, remove the water pump replace it then all those bits go back on again. $300 is a very good price and who ever it is is definitely looking after you. :)

anyone know the legalities of driving on prescription narcotics? :P ie insurance, police/courts, etc

on Endone now for a while..... man it makes a huge difference to the knee pain, its amazing :P whats more it aint giving off the fuzzy-head pill-syndrome,so thats good.

oi - how about this damn avatar???!! wicked, found it on ebay

GARRETTURBO.jpg

got a drive in a SRT8 Jeep. Its only slightly slower than the Porsche Cayenne Turbo S. It does a 5.1 0-100, not bad for a 2 tone car :) It's now the fastest car that we sell, Its even faster that the lighter 300C SRT8

When you put your foot down there is no wheel spin it just launches off and get really fast quickly. And it sounds fantastic with its standard 3" twin exhausts

But then again for 85K you can get a fast GTR that doesn't need to be refuelled every few Km's

You tube have a few decent vids of the SRT8 Jeep.

Interesting... They appear to be running High 13's. :S

Unsure if they are stock, sounds stock. Apparently the ecu also limits throttle until a few kays have been pushed up on it.. Not sure how true that is.

lol...

I came across a snip from a bathurst vid I chopped 2years or so ago.

Awesome little clip this... Pure Power down the straight.

    • Behrman is great quality stuff. My 34 has some serious clouding as well but I’m too nervous to try and replace the glass myself so I haven’t bought them yet. 
    • This might be true if you live in NZ but I can't see how this could be true for us locals here.  I've found the customer support for Haltech to be absolutely amazing. I've turned up to Haltech and spent entire days with their tech support guys, they've even helped me with wiring dramas that had nothing to do with their products.  They have the best customer support of any company I've dealt with, I can't imagine how my experiences with them could possibly be any better.
    • If you want to do a single throttle body conversion easily, you won't need to pull anything apart. Take the linkage from your throttle off the linkage controlling the ITBs. Now open the ITBs wide open, and lock the linkages in said position. Now add a single throttle body onto the front of your inlet plenum. No it's not ideal for the last nth of a kw, but it'll be a lot better than what you're already trying to do...   PS, ITBs can be so damn hard to tune from, because roughly 20% movement in a throttle body equates to a change in roughly 80% of its flow (Hence power). When you add up the flow limitations of those small throttle bodys, it is a LOT higher than that of a single large throttle. Hence, TPS is very very sensitive with them, and you do a LOT of work with sensor fusion, and some Maths behind the scenes to make those blends nice, and be smooth.
    • Yep, when Haltech purchased Adaptronic, and all of the Adaptronic staff, including Andy went with it, it took Haltech to the next level. Haltech wanted Adaptronic as they wanted things like Andy's fuel models, and some other IP, AND they wanted Andy too as he is brilliant! Andy has spoken about the incompatibilities between the old 1500 stuff vs Nexxus, and it totally makes sense. It's not JUST software that is different, there is huge changes in the underlying hardware too. It's why Haltech has had soooo many changes in the last couple of years, in terms of Hardware, and Software, and why it has become so damn Amazing. Why do you think guys like Rob Dahm with his quad rotor, went from running Adaptronic's to running Haltechs? Andy. Pretty much, Haltech these days, is Adaptronic, but with more funds behind it, and more staff, and hence Andy's visions, and visions of other people that he helps shape their great visions, into amazing new products. All the new Nexxus gear, whole new software for it, new and better dashboards, the apps that will run on headunits and NOT be slow to respond! I understand people being burnt in the past, but if you're ragging on a company, about products and issues from many years ago, it's more a reflection on yourself, not looking or keeping up with new stuff. In which case, those people should be going back to PowerFC and Nistunes as the ECU's to rave on about...
