thanks for the feedback mate! much appreciated.

progress has been slow with xmas and new years... getting back into it very soon.

oh and i have also been working on my other car.. slapper 180sx with VL RB30E in it converted to turbo with RB20 loom, CAS, Rb20 ECU and RB20 injectors... got it all running and hope to do some skids in it soon haha

UPDATE:

well i got busy and finished the slapper car in time for a private new years party we had... car's done, and its truely epic haha.

some pics and video of it in action. engine only running 5psi boost, tune was done at the track using a wideband only. limiter set to 5800 rpm and yeah... sooo much torque lol has no troubles baking the rears.

    • Ok guess I can rule out the battery, probably even the starter and alternator (maybe) as well. I'm gonna clean those leads and see what happens if it's still shit I might take it to an auto electrician. Unless the immobiliser is that f**king heavy, but it shouldn't be.  If I start the car every day, starts up perfectly never an issue.
    • Anything above ~9.5V is acceptable. The higher the better, but it will almost always drop to at least 10.5V, if not lower, even with a new big battery and everything else being good. 9.76 is not a concern. If it goes below 9, you'd be sure that there's a problem with either the battery or the connections.
    • It's new almost. Under a year old i think and I've tested it twice at supercheap
    • Glue the head from a Pez dispenser on it. Goofy, or Winnie the Pooh, so something.
    • Adjusting the idle screw is usually (emphasis on usually) just covering up deeper issues. Stuff like the cold start valve not closing properly. Throttle shaft seals on the way out. Coolant temp sensors getting out of spec. Coolant temp sensors especially can be a bear to diagnose because they can fail subtly. My dad just spent weeks chasing down his high idle. He cleaned the coolant temp sensor and everything but the resistance curve just drifts over time and if it's been 20+ years they also get super slow to respond as well. Has a massive effect on fuel economy as if it's off the ECU is going to run richer and command high idle for far longer than it should otherwise.
