CRoNic... Posted October 10, 2009 Share Posted October 10, 2009 ^have you removed that 1.5inch exhaust of yours? You'll hear the rattle when I rock up in like an hour or 2.

Dohmar Posted October 10, 2009 Share Posted October 10, 2009 Your ride height is far from low if i had stiffer suspension it wouldnt bottom out. these bilstiens, while being hard compared to std shocks, are spongy writeoff can attest that when i was going to moonta last year, we'd hit a dip and my entire exhaust would bottom out on the tarmac and shoot a tonne of sparks, so much so that it ripped apart one of the welds on my muffler its not about how low it is, its about how the ride height interacts with the suspension - i'd be fine if I had totally stiff suspension but thats not the case -D Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/188416-the-sa-wasteland/page/1790/#findComment-4872530 Share on other sites More sharing options...

D_Stirls Posted October 10, 2009 Share Posted October 10, 2009 *plugs antenna back in* Safe to assume an 02 sensor shouldn't be doing that an its probably farked? /noob Thanks! Well actually yes that's what a narrow band O2 sensor will do when the engine is in closed loop mode. If you look at the voltage output from a narrow band sensor there is a big difference in the voltage between 14.6 and 14.8 and all the ECU does is aim above till it gets a low voltage and then aims below until it get's a high voltage, so by constantly going above and below it averages 14.7 which what we are looking for.

I have a rear window brakelight out of a 32-R that you can borrow if need be. Ive been too lazy to put it in mine. Only need power and double sided foam to make it work.
