My mum has the sports model, the clutch is so light that I stalled in twice in the first 100m it was embarressing (especially considering her driving school business is advertised all over it).

Once you get some revs into them they are actually quite a zippy little car and fun to drive.

the 'Swine' are getting desparate; the swift is a natty little car but hardly, I reckon, suitable for rough and tumble Police work, perhaps it is only used for administrative chores, ie fetching pies and cakes for 'mornos'!!.

Carefull Changi!!! You may need those "morons" one day!!!!!! They provide a service to the community believe it or not and it's people like you who make their dislike for Jo Blo just that bit worse......

I remember seeing a Z3 Cop car some years ago. I'm pretty sure that companies give these cars to the Police as an advertising thing.. I mean what a better way to get your car noticed. And people would think if it's good enough for the police to drive it must be a good car.....

We are in an economic downturn so all parts of government have to do there part to cut costs.

I have heard that the new hybrid Camry's will be cop cars too? :P

Saw a green Toyota Aurion Sportivo as a highway petrol car with the speed laser gun...

careful RBJET....I wrote 'mornos', common Aussie slang for morning tea/smoko, not 'morons'. as picked up by Samon. the crux of my post was not to have a go at the 'coppers' [slang for police] it was merely to indicate that the suzuki swift is not suitable for police work. unless criminals are using Smarts or Scooters as get- away vehicles, I hardly thing the crims would be overly worried by a Swift pursuit car.

      R34 25GT Engine Light 21

      Oil change does not trigger code 21. Code 21 is for coilpacks primary side connection. You can try to clear the code with a battery disconnect, hold down the brake pedal to drain capacitors through the brake lights with the ignition on for 10-15 seconds before you reconnect the battery. I have seen R35 coil conversion permanently cause this code with no ill effects so it might be the resistance it wants to see isn't quite right on one or more coilpacks. Could be inside the ECU, could be the harness, could be a coil. You can test it all if you want or just ignore until the car actually starts misfiring.

      I forgot you have a Nistune ECU. Use Nistune to do all the tests I mentioned instead of faffing with 30+ year old electrical connectors. You can read MAF volts off that too, there are reference values in the service manual to tell you roughly what it should be in different conditions.

      No. I think it might be the AFM. Hence the use of the terms "swaptronics", which implies the use of swapping out electronics for the purpose of diagnosis. It's about the only way to prove that a small/niggling/whatever problem with an AFM or a CAS or similar is actually caused by that AFM/CAS/whatever. A known good item swapped in that still gives the same problem is likely to be caused somewhere else. They're all the same. Spraying AFMs with cleaner is an each way bet between cleaning it and f**king it.

      Can you mount the ATTESA pump in other locations?

      Oh wow! This might actually work amazingly. Do you know the ratio of the diff? I was told the only thing you need to make sure of is if the front & rear diff ratios are the same. Ours is a 4.083 Thanks!

      You think its the AFM? I know its a common issues on R32s. I find it coincidental how this issue raised right after cleaning the fuel system. As everything except the fuel system was fine before. I tried running it with the IACV unplugged but did not notice a difference and still stalled. However, the RPM gauge is not in the cluster right now, so I will need to connect the laptop again and use Nistune to check the RPM. I will check this weekend.
