Yeah i guess im just trying to see whats local as in not a million miles away. The more local it is the more cars will come. Also i guess up the highways can be quite boring, maby Warrick is possible but which way would you go and how hot will it be in warrick???

I mean it will be summer and north pine dam and its bbq areas are all under the trees and quite cool with the wind over the water...

mmmmmm... it's possible! But it's a fair way from our buildings, so by the time we get there and back, i'll have no time for steak!

come on, take one of them extended lunch breaks :(....i dont really mind, aslong as its not spicy again :blush:

I think the cruise to wivenhoe last year was a great destination for those facts col, the area, bbq's galore, nice and cool...maybe pine dam will be a goa? can you chuck up a link to seom of them pics col?

Photo bucket is down atm will get onto the pics soon...

I didnt get any pics at northpine due to the police blocking off the car park. There must have been a crime committed last night there, they had the area taped off...

i dont use photobucket anymore, imageshack.us is much better i reckon. once its uploaded it gives u the selection of copying & pasting in a piece of code for thumbnail views, which is great for forums.

I think I just discovered a possible MSC rout thismorning during my work duties

Over Glorius....past the dams to Esk...then Esk Hampton Road, it is a crazy little road with some of the nicest corners I have ever been on then finnish in Toowoomba at one of the many parks!

It might be a bit far for some but!

I am more than happy to go with some others on a scouting run at some stage!

Andy & I were driving around on Saturday night, up cootha, mt gravatt, and I said 'let's do glorious', and he said 'no can do without Jay!'. *sigh* oh the memories :rofl:

Lol, well I should have the car back sometime this week.

    • 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.
