Hi mates, i decided to replace my rims from 17" to 16" . Therefore i am looking for Falken RT-615 215-45-16. Is this tyre & size available in the UK ? Can anyone advise me of a conatct name or address ??? ( I used to run on Falken's FK452 215-40-17 )

this is my tuner's opinion = your engine is running way too lean Looks like a broken fuel pump or so, install fuel pressure. should go to 3 bar + boost is 3,7 bar at 7000 rpm. dont drive above 5000 rpm, you can easily kill your engine. install a 4 bar fpr to make sure you get enough fuel. the pump will more easily fail with a 4 bar fpr then with a 3 bar fpr. max power should be at 6600-7000rpm. with lambda roughly said 0,65-0,85 I think it is reasonable ....

I also think, i have better measure my ful pump ... Which should be the reading ? fpr @ 4bars

running fuel which is not super rated (hig octane) I use only 100 octane fuel limit in air flow both in and out this could also be an air leak. check there are no restrictions on the air filter _is it cold air feed? absolutely .Air filter is located 8cm above the ground ! then what size exhaust are you running and do you have a big enough outlet 63 mm bore fuel pressure reg should be 4 bar and red tops used for injectors. That's right ! the lambda must be working It is in place ( no cat converter ) are you MAF set up or not? MAF just before the V9F... if these ae all c

Acording the Dutches, the Lambda reading should be roughly 0.65 - 0.85 ..... but check out what i saw!!!
-
Yes ! if you can see i get a pressure of 7.6 psi. The peak torque is 30.49 kgM. It seems like lack of fuel after 5500 rpm to me ....

VR6 Specialists , just told me that they can send me one for Euro 175 .... Thanks mate !

Hi, mates ! I need an ECU for a OBD1 2.8 12V engine ...... ( a used one would be oK ) I my country this vechicle is rare .... Any ideas ????
-
You are right but your idea, involves too much work ... If you notice the Lambda curves, you can see very lean mixture. In addtion as i cannot detect my engine through th OBD, i am seriously thinking that something is wrong with my ECU. My engine was recently rebuilted by a friend, so i hope everything is Ok. I doudt about the managment and other adjustments ...

220.6 ps = 217.58 bhp

The red top injectors ( according the Stage 2 upgrade ) ... i just replace the fpr with the one of 4bar. No big deal ... i think the chip is responsible for the lean mixture. As i cannot "see" my engine through the OBD port, i need to get another ECU. Where can i get one ? In Greece this car is very rare .....
-
Today i had the car dynotested. Despite the V9F Stage2 , the output was only 220PS. Note that the engine counts less than 6000 Km. I also worry about the lean mixture ( as shown in Lamda diagram ) I run a 3bar fuel pressure regulator and the VR6 Specialist's chip. Any suggestions ???? http://i258.photobucket.com/albums/hh280/swaper/Lamda.jpg http://i258.photobucket.com/albums/hh280/swaper/Dynosheet1.jpg

I have already dismount the clocks, but i am not sure about the proper sequence of those red & transparent plastics .... I have 2 red & 1 trans for each clock ....i also cannot understand which OEM trans plastic i have to peel ( take off ) ..... Sorry to bother you ....
-
If you have also turned the digital dispalys in red/black colour, pls tell me how to do it, because my english are not good enough to understand the Canadian instructions !!! I need to know where and how to place the red & transparent pcs of plastics ......

The location of that damn filter box is very very low .... u have to be very careful at all times ... I am trying to figure of something else, or ...lifting the suspension a bit ....

I solve the problem .... Very stupid situation !! The air intake hose was removed from the charger due to a sudden hit on the air filter ( at the bottom of the car !!! ) .......

Speaking about plugs, according VF Engineering, the recommended ones are Bosch F6DTC ( for hot countries). I live in Greece with my stage II VR2.8 .... Any suggestions ?????

After installing the Stage 2 goodies on my VR, and i started enjoying the car, yesterday after replacing all water hoses with samco's, i noticed that the engine was not running as good as few hours ago !!! The engines missfires and you have a feeling like there is water into the distributor cap ! It starts immediately, it run very smooth at idle, but when you press the pedal , it seems that the firing order and the spark timing is from ... another car! So far i changed the coil but nothing happened. Since the last 2 weeks i run brand new leads. ( I need to know the right coil part Nr for 2.8 O

Finaly, i found out (during Stage II installation) that the S/C was not properly assembled.Now the clamp is "closing" the body much better and hopefully there will be not further leaking !!!! I am too happy !!! I will check this afternoon if everything is OK. .... Now i think that the belt is too short !!!! Oh my God, will i finish someday ??? Thank u guys .....

I need a picture showing the oil return hose on the oil pan. Also a measurment from the bottom of the oil pan can help as well .... I am trying to solve a problem of a leaking V9F S/C. I think that the oil level inside the oil pan , does not allow the oil return, so i have high oil pressure into my S/C , causing the problem .....

HELP!! Engine Cuts out Randomly then takes ages to start

I had the same problem last summer. After replacing many parts, i found out that the fuel pump was destroyed .... Check fuel pressure before ..... -
I live in Athens, a very noisy city ... Nobody cares about the noise of my 63mm decat exhaust ... It seems to attract Hondas S2000's though !!!
