new GOR posted in events.

Don't think there are any long vid's though.

And i'm pretty sure nark was the only one with Video... Phat 32 had a flatt battery (lost of use that was) LOL

should make better use of them... good vid's could come outta some of those spots (specially through the otways top with the fog)

very fun i might add :D

but following that mobile dunny truck for a while sucked!

and seeing the flames come out the zorst was cool. :)

Poyz: Yeah :) Was fun.

Seeing the 32 GTR in my mirrors was pretty cool - we scared a few other cars which caused much amusement.

Being passed by 2 GTRs like you are going backwards must be great for the brown pants industry.

inark: Don't mean to be a code-cop, but the reason your images aren't working is your slashes go the wrong way. Windows (DOS) likes '' but HTTP likes '/' so they don't work on my Mac.

Can you fix? Would like to see the photos :)

oooh your gonna cop it now! :)

all speeds were adhered to. even the ones on the GOR which said 100 followed by a few sharp turns :D

James: My brother told me Ula was driving like a pansy throughout most of it.

Could have something to do with the fact he once had to get his car towed home from Lorne. He can fill you in when he reads this post and abuses me over the phone.

Lucky for him my brother and I had our cars to go on an interesting drive on the way back home in the dark. Those corners come plenty fast in the dark, esp when they're blind!

:goddam: :goddam:

Coming out of the carpark i looked away for 5 sec. and lost the whole group. Phat32 was behind me and he didn't see where you all went. We cruised up and down the town, then decided that you could be anywhere, so i headed home. I saw Phat32 do a u turn, but he gave no signal, so i thought he was going to try his luck.

Anyway, that last photo shoot looks mad, i'm really pissed i missed it :Pissed: !

BUT my drive home was really exciting and intense at the same time. Not being held back by my inferiour (sp?) cousins, the R33 GTR's, (:bahaha: :)) i was able to unlesh all 205+rwkw on the helpless GOR. Nothing like overtaking 2 cars at 150 then braking to take the corner with the ass end feeling a little loose. One brief millisecond of OOH 5h1t!, but with a slight correction of steering the HICAS did it's job.

All in all thanks to everyone for making it a GREAT day!!! Nothing better than Nice cars, excellant company and alot of twisty roads. Next time i will swap digits with a few people to make sure i don't loose my way and miss out on a great photo shoot. We should do this again VERY soon! Keep in touch.

Hey guys!

Sorry for ditching you guys but we ended up in Warrnambol (spelling?). I said I wanted to take it easy and do some sight seeing but Pete is such a bad influence and all I saw was a blur... :confused:

However it was a pleasure to meet some of you and good to hear you were "taking it easy" along GOR... :uh-huh:

If any of you are up this way don't hesitate to let us know.

Get a Whiteline Handling Kit. You can go faster :D

Btw: The 6spd TT Supra last night. Not bad...doesn't feel fast due to its down low torquey nature. But it's fast. Kinda like Den's car. It's missing the big torque hit as boost comes on.

Ula: I'll say again - was very fun run. A real buzz. Escpecially as we were legal for 90% of the time.

The flame-on 'feature' of the car is pretty cool! Nark saw flame at one point on the way down too. Pity I have this 'legality' conscious and will get a cat put on. Not before I get a photo though :D

james: ahhh... i wondered why all that black smoke was coming straight out when you were flooring it :P

Few got lost by the end point... but well there are a lot less skylines in VIC than NSW so we probably get less on our turnouts than up there.

well at the Geelong stage we had approx 17-20 cars if i'n not mistaken ?!?!?

lost about 3-4 at least before the pics i reckon.

That's not a bad turn out as talking to everyone.... approx 3/4 of those there had only had their cars a few months at the monst.

So that means things will only get better !

Plus there were a few that missed out but you get that.

    • @Haggerty you still haven't answered my question.  Many things you are saying do not make sense for someone who can tune, yet I would not expect someone who cannot tune to be playing with the things in the ECU that you are.  This process would be a lot quicker to figure out if we can remove user error from the equation. 
    • If as it's stalling, the fuel pressure rises, it's saying there's less vacuum in the intake manifold. This is pretty typical of an engine that is slowing down.   While typically is agree it sounds fuel related, it really sounds fuel/air mixture related. Since the whole system has been refurbished, including injectors, pump, etc, it's likely we've altered how well the system is delivering fuel. If someone before you has messed with the IACV because it needed fiddling with as the fuel system was dieing out, we need to readjust it back. Getting things back to factory spec everywhere, is what's going to help the entire system. So if it idles at 400rpm with no IACV, that needs raising. Getting factory air flow back to normal will help us get everything back in spec, and likely help chase down any other issues. Back on IACV, if the base idle (no IACV plugged in) is too far out, it's a lot harder for the ECU to control idle. The IACV duty cycle causes non linear variations in reality. When I've tuned the idle valves in the past, you need to keep it in a relatively narrow window on aftermarket ecus to stop them doing wild dances. It also means if your base idle is too low, the valve needs to open too much, and then the smallest % change ends up being a huge variation.
    • 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.
