Without receiving responses from all the Executive Committee members, and in the interest of actually having this event and not cancelling it, I have made an executive decision.

Sunday 4/5/03 5pm

The Parkway Hotel

5 Frenchs Forest Road East

Frenchs Forest

For those of you who know the area this is the place that has the Farmers' Market on Sunday mornings.

The meeting will be held in the Beer Garden (covered)and will go for about 45 minutes I'm guessing. Those that wish to stay on for a bite the Bistro opens at 6.30.

If someone wants to organise a cruise prior please do. :mad:

See attachment for map, X marks the spot. You can't enter from Warringah Rd but it's very easy to find. heh it's just along from Skyline Place. :)

Good thinking Carlo -

Dino, I like the way you think - Pub, Beer, is good !

Whist on the topic of the AGM , see here : http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/sh...&threadid=15027

Can we get an idea of numbers? I told The Parkway I'd let them know approx. how many are staying for a bite.

In addition to the Exec Comm. the following are those I assume are attending:

Majanal

B-Man

Carlo

Doctor

SW20-GT

Blitz

akira

JiMbo

MrGotRice

Sliver_Arrowz

ndr +Melinda

anyone else? bigvis? TWS? Merli? :)

I'll be coming from the mountain silver... would be happy to get lost with you! where shal we meet? Call me 0414 940 938

And I'm 90% on dinner/bite to eat... just gotta check with the other (better) half.

did you guys see the attached map? It's pretty easy, come up Warringah rd cross over the Roseville bridge, continue on for a couple of ks, turn left just before the KFC/Taco bell and left again, 500m on the left.

Silver... I have a route planned... but I'll be leaving from homebush as I'll be there for some garden show I believe that Jody has insisted on. If you want to meet (and anyone else) me at Hombush at say 4pm we can cruise over together.

Give me a call on 0414 940 938 if your interested.

Yeah remember fellas that Sydney auto Salon is on, 6c will be full (most probably), as will the other parks I assume...but theres plebnty of room around there...I will come and meet you guys there at 4pm (hopefully-ill be in da city) and cruz home (frenchs forest) with you guys.

    • @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.
