Hey all

just venting some anger

today i was driving home from work, theres a point where you have to merge at the top of a hill, i indicated for about 10 seconds hoping that some kind person would let me in. The person in front of me (in the other lane) sped up a bit too let me in, but then the FAT F*CK behind her sped up, therefor not letting me in, he looked straight at me and smiled. OMG! That was it, he then had the nerve to cut me off about 5 minutes later. I drove up next to him with my window down signalling to him to wind down his window down for a "friendly" discussion. But the prick wouldnt even look at me. All I am trying to say here is, Dont be a top bloke by not letting ppl who have signalled in PLENTY of time in.

Cheers

Dave

P.S: I am not normally like this but enough is enough I reckon. Its a little thing called commen courtesy but evidentely no one knows what that is anymore!

I wouldn't take that kind of attitude... nowadays, if anyone pisses me off i tail gate or swerve and cut them off the road. I guess one day I will meet the wrong person and have my face punched in.. but i'm full of rage!

Look im all for that in some circumstances but cause im big, ppl tend to think that im always looking for fights( sometimes i am) but, look i dunno most of the time i will tailgate someone that has pissed me off but i just couldnt believe that farker. OMG! Bashings for him, TO THE HEAD. BWUHAHAHAHAHAHA

Well by law, if someone in another lane is indicating, and is in front of you, you have to let them in.....

I always indicate with heaps of notice, and people usually let me in. I dont like to wait for a gap, then indicate.....

But when I see some mofo speeding up to not lert me in, I swerve into that lane hard (only about 1/8 th into the lane), the other person usually brakes hard, then I slowly take the lane..... :P

This technique is effective about 80% of the time it is used... maybe more...

    • 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.
