what would you be doing in Europe / Pomme land?

Look at things and get drunk frequently.

And I haven't covered more parts of the UK and Eastern Europe.

would like to do UK pubs someday. Would also love to visit the Whisky distilleries in Scotland :)

Have done heaps of pubs in London, haven't been to North of England, Ireland/North Ireland, Scotland and Eastern Europe - am planning on hitting them when I go there next.

both mate. I want to make sure Sean has history with the car so tuning info is all there for him. yep, it's going to be a long 1000km as I would only drive it on the weekends.

I done 400ks yesterday, so should take you 1 weekend.

Take the beast up through the hinterland for run in Antz. I know the roads well. I will book in with sean and get him to steal my timing and I will come with you.

Is it good drive thru there?

that would be EPIC mate.

They don't have to be! Emotion + car = money pit

Yep. But we wouldn't own these cars if it wasn't for emotions. We'd spend next to nothing and go buy a Yaris or a Mirage

Good luck with that. You don't have your Skyline because it was a sound economic decision...

The truth if I've ever heard it

True but. .. some decisions are worse than others. All the time you see people keeping their car because they can't bear to sell it and wasting thousands turning it into somthing it ain't. When for not much more money they could have just bought the right car.

True. But logical isnt always best. If i was logical I'd go buy some new small car that will take E10.

Doooooo eeeeeeeet.

They allow passenger rides...

I'll bring this up with the rest of the Exec team. See if we can get something organised.

BTW, when you're shopping for turbo on the GT-V, make sure you get low mount kit not high mount kit. Mate and I discovered that top bit of intake runners hitting the turbo.

I like this one, he's full of useful information :)

Call me skeptical but I massively doubt that Nissan would give the gt-v a low compression version of the 25de. Why would they make a new version of the engine to make it less powerful and less efficient?

GT-V wasn't a new version. It was a limited edition.

Turboing an n/a works well when you run low boost on a turbo capable of flowing lots of air at low pressures. on the n/a block is there provision for oil and water lines for the turbo?

Can't tell you off the top of my head. I'm pretty sure it does, there is a lot of extra bits and pieces that have been capped off. Would need to investigate further in daylight.

    • @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.
