Hey stink,

Brokers don't normally go and assess it @ port either. Normally its just sit tight until it reaches compliance.

I know its hard to not go and want to see the car when it arrives, but you have to be patient and wait :D

The problem you have to get passed is that the car will be in quarantine and you need to hold a Blue Card in order to enter that site. Not only this, but its customs...they are tight bastards.

Just sit it out, keep on the phone to your shipping company asking where its at, and make sure once its cleared its on a truck straight away.

Hope this helps :D

Thanks Sambo,

Yeah just had a chat and they told me pretty much what you have said.

They have got confirmation that its arrived so thats good, but apart from that its wait out.

Driving me nuts lol!!

Hopefully it will get out by the end of the week.

Cheers Stink

Thats awesome dude! Really happy to hear ur baby has arrived safely ;)

But try and jeep calm hey, cause i had a few delays with compliance and she is finally ready now, i pick her up tomorrow morning!!

Customs clearance is weird. It could take 1 day, it could take 10....mine took 10 >.< All depends on how clean your car's interior is and whether or not it needs fumagating. :O

But yeh, i remember seeing mine in the flesh for the first time and i didnt wanna leave :mad:

Have fun with it man, take care on the roads...and let me know how it all goes!

Cheers bud.

Cheers Sambo,

So the first time you got to see yours was at the compliancers?

Mick said they will call him when its released and then it gets delivered straight to them.

Hopefully a short wait!

Cheers Stink

Oh yeah as soon as i get some more pics i will post em up.

Oh wicked you went with Mick @ SVI?

If you did man, mention my name...Sam Douglas. If you do he will surely give you a discount dude :)

But yeah man, mick and SVI are great...they are really speedy with ordering the compliance plate, the work done is prompt and well done. You shouldnt have any problems!

Dude, once you get her all sweet post some pics up, then PM me your contact details and we can maybe get some decent pics taken of our cars!? ;) im only on the sunshine coast so not a big trip.

Anyway...good luck with the rest of it dude.

Only other advice i would give is the following. Ring mick or look on your shipping invoice...and get your VIN/Chassis # and your Engine # ring AAMI Insurance and organise to go into their nearest branch to get your CTP Insurance all sorted out and paid for. This way, if you have the receipt and your Rego forms, your able to drive the car from compliance to the Dep of Transport and save $100 that you would normally have to spend on a tray truck. But if you bought through mick, he will probably do it for you :D

Good luck man.

      I saw you mention this earlier and it raised a red flag, but I couldn't believe it was real. Yes, the vacuum signal should vary. It is the one and only load signal from the engine to the ECU, and it MUST vary. It is either not connected or is badly f**ked up in some way.

      @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.
