Hey did any one see today tonight tonight LOL...

With the Dvd that the RAC wants banned because it is suppose to promote street racing and all the other rigmorole included. It never showed or told the name of the dvd/video what it was because they didnt want to get sued i spose :P.

Why should it be banned most people in there modified cars usually drive senisiably? Though i spose there is a few that do bugger it up for the rest of us..

I mean i usually drive resposiable when im on the road, i dont see why people have too suffer for others acts.

just my 2 cents lol....

Always the same old story though. Media and government will always hound modified cars and their owners. Nothing we can do about it just be sensible yourself and keep your car legal and you won't have to worry so much. If the dvd is showing Illegal activities in this country then it will no doubt be taken off the shelves here but may still be available in other countries....

It's a stupid idea of TT to even bring it up. It didn't look like an Australian production and there are scores of drift dvds available. Perhaps they should ban initial d? Perhaps they should ban Chuck Norris because it encourages roundhouse kicks? Perhaps they should ban themselves because they are a derisive attitude and manipulative reporting makes the program a joke.

Did you see the preview for the following nights show - "Us vs. Them - Foreign enclaves on Australian soil". Great topic to bring up guys.

Lol i watched this the other night and had a bit of a laugh, its not as if anything in there was potentially dangerous. i mean it was all low speed and under fairly controlled conditions, no general public around...

    • I guess one thing that might be wrong is the manifold pressure.  It is a constant -5.9 and never moves even under 100% throttle and load.  I would expect it to atleast go to 0 correct?  It's doing this with the OEM MAP as well as the ECU vacuum sensor. When trying to tune the base map under load the crosshairs only climb vertically with RPM, but always in the -5.9 column.
    • AHHHH gotchaa, I'll do that once I am home again. I tried doing the harness with the multimeter but it seems the car needed a jump, there was no power when it was in the "ON" position. Not sure if I should use car battery jump starter or if its because the stuff that has been disconnect the car just does send power.
    • 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.
