so are you gonna be moving josh? over the whole noosa scene.

I’ve always been “moving”. I’ve been moving for the last 5 years, I’m more talk and less action. You know how it is, get comfortable, motivation gets hard.

Dads been waiting to go, his either to and from Brisbane, Melbourne or overseas. So not much keeping him here anymore either as my brother an I are old enough these days do move out.

I'm kinda stuck between a rock and a hard place with some legal action, again but not transport related. Just gotta ride that out until I know how flexable i can be

i got myself a pretty sweet job here at the moment, receptionist/personal secretary at a new physio thats just opened up. but other then that noosa is crap...but whats worse then motivating myself is trying to motivate zaine...almost impossible

Spend 21 years getting dragged about the crapholes of the country (anywhere below Qld Border) and armpits of the world (places with shit that blows up and cretins trying to kill for their own personal zealotry)

Noosa starts looking pretty sweet.

w00t... as of 8am tomorrow when i set foot on brissy soil i'll officially be a brisbanite...

goddamn i'm gonna become some char glilled chicken lookin mofo.

Shonkymonkey. Official club sign on Barbie is this Saturday. Let me know if you want a pickup mate. Visit this thread after creating a user account http://www.sauqld.com/ipb/index.php?showtopic=696 then get to our user friendly hotown. Your ass will be extra crispy after we give you a welcome mate.

Plus my boat arrives Thursday afternoon. That has to be a huge event. If I had a spare car I'd lend it, but meh all out, even with 5 cars :)

Your ass will be extra crispy after we give you a welcome mate.

lol how do you and the mrs use 5 cars at the same time? why do you keep 5 cars registered in the first place?

i'm on SAU QLD whoring now.

yes, thats the one... :huh:

as zaffas event is not posted in the events section :rofl:

Well I'm not sure whether its a good idea to or not due to it somewhat being part of an already organised meet up earlier in the night and thats not in events section?? :)

you would get better exposure in the events section...

also the chat threads were locked last time as they were being used to create events, so lets not go down that road again...

in short please use the events section... otherwise admin may take it away again (its a re-occuring theme over the past 4-5 years)

Shan, only 3 are registered, one racecar and the Lynx will have to go to a new home sometime.

zaffa, I don't mind if people head off to your cruise after, so have a good one mate.

    • @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.
