If it has a rotary engine, I hope it's a S6 Duc, they are SEX cars with little more than the right set of wheels.

Good to hear Ash will be with us again next year.

Edited by chops

Where were you going to go ASH? BAck to VIC?

Let me know when you guys cruise -- preferably b4 feb 1st (unfortunately lose my licence for a year then :) )

I still have a prob with turbo/boostcontroller too hence have lost a bit of power (but still reckon i can keep up on cruises!!!!).

Cars also not liking heat (the otherday had steam pissing out from cooling system and my air con cacked it! -- i have to take it back to place that did front end repairs (silvers)

Cheers fellas. :P

Yeah Chris it was looking highly likely my work would take me back to Vic, but an awesome oportunity came up in Adel, so I'm stay which I'm pleased about.

Duc is going to the "brap" club hey? I like Cosmo's personally, shame they so damned heavy! But i can't think about "new" cars, gotta stick with ole bluey a while longer.

Have a good xmas / new year everyone!

hey Ash, are you doing anything christmas eve? if not come out for some drinks.

as for what rotary, lets just say it has a timeless shape. :P

having said that, its still in the pipeline.

Thats good to hear ash!!! I need to find some new work tooo!!!! Electrosux are a bit boring!!!!!

What about the old school s3 rotor with a series 4/5 motor: Have afriend who has one with over 330RWkW, they have awesome weight distributuion, it is a SERIOUSLY quick car!!!!!!; Only probklen is they are a bit of acoffin!

But out in Allice springs (where this bloke lives) there isnt a lot to hit apart from native fauna, (ie no speed limits === big fun!!!!!!!)

ps sorry about grammarrr fellas: have to be quick boss is watching!!!!

a little off topic... i saw it the other day too, i think its an RX-2, looks awesome!!! someones put some time & effort into that one. :)

i would love an S8 FD3S if i could afford it, but i would be happy with an S4/5 FC3S :)

    • 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...
