Don't forget to pick up this little lost lamb on the way to the gardens folks!

I should also mention that this is not a track day so speed limits apply. Being a public holiday cops will be out in force so keep it under control.

As you come into Geelong pull into Macca's and we will meet you there, then continue to the Geelong waterfront botanical gardens.  I don't know were that is either, but nothing a Melways can't fix :P .

As long as your there Arrowz.....

We'll see ya on the way through to the gardens.

ok easties.. .we gonna meet up at the Ring Road maccas with everybody? because i'd prefer to skip that part if i can as its a bit out of the way.

From what i remember i just get on at Kings Way and straight down the westgate freeway.. Ring road would just be extra for me.

I'd be happy just to meet at Geelong at the botantical gardens. Is that still a goer for you interstate people?

Even if food is more expensive down there, there will be supermarkets and crap (from what i remember!) where we can buy meat, bread, tomato sauce (vital stuff), plastic plates, etc. Its not like in the middle of the bush :D

predator666....

i say you eastern guys could meet where we are picking up Silver Arrowz... just outside of Geelong

that way we go through Geelong as a group.

the lights will split us a fair bit (just they way they are) but that's everywhere.

Will look good for the first 10 km's with it being 3-4 lanes wide :D

APOLLO BAY

There are about 3 supermarkets down there from memory...

plus all the usual take-away's... etc. etc.

i might actually go the fish n' chips as the locally down there get's all the fish fresh of the fishing fleet down there, can't beat quality.

But see on the day. Not too phased

;):);) I may be getting my 'line back tempararily for the w/e!!! :D :D :D

Westsiders we meet at ring road macca's/mobile, then cruise at a legal speed to geelong and meet up with Silver-Arrowz and his interstate buddies, then continue to the gardens.

Should be great!!

See ya then

you go passed the outbound one and take the next exit ~ [about 500m] fitzgerald road, do a u-turn under the bridge and get back on the inbound side...its the only way thats worth doing from where we comin from...

    • As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.  
    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack. 
    • Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
    • In my head it does make sense to be a fuel problem since that is what I touched when cleaning the system. When I was testing with the fuel pressure gauge, the pressure was constantly 2.5 bar with the FPR vacuum removed. When stalling, the pressure was going up to 3.0 bar (which is how it should be on ignition).
    • ECUtalk pages don't mention they support the ABS computer (consult port has more than one CAN), so you might just need a different scan tool. But, I would expect ABS is a different light to the brake warning/handbrake light, do you see an ABS light come on for a few seconds when you turn the key from ACC to IGN? But since you said: I'd have a look at the ABS sensors in the rear hubs to make sure they are not damaged, disconnected etc.
