I imagine the 350 will spool nicely lol

Yeah needed the ignitor bolts as the threads for it in the carbon coil cover were a size smaller for some reason. So just ordered some from pro bolt to check them out, good product :)

Will be ordering some new bolts for the spoiler end covers and a few more bits soon. Should look good

O.K so I've done some painting trialing out the colour I'm gonna paint a couple of things

Ignitor Bracket:

Think its a pretty good colour, just have to see if the paint sticks alright and finish prepping the rocker covers, should look much better then the ones on there now anyway

looks good Callan, never thought of painting the covers black.

Today was eventful. Tuned a RB25\30 with the GT3076, and Vipec. Fitted the boost solenoid, and configured all of the boost maps. The cool thing - The boost valve that Vipec sell as their own, is exactly the same as the Gizzmo boost control kit that I had in my R33.

Anyway, holds boost perfect, set it to 18psi, and configured all fuel to nice and safe.

Took a while to get the aircon idle settings happy but they are pretty close now. So many things to configure and get balanced out with the idle areas thats for sure. Might trawl a bit of the forum to see how others are having luck with it.

Now we're just waiting for the Digital knock kit to arrive, so we can fit and I can start cranking more timing into it. Also going to set up the knock maps so the ECU can pull some timing if there is any knock detected.

Lastly, there is a very advanced water meth kit being looked at, and then more timing if we get that fitted. I think he's going to wait until after xmas though.

Getting depressed - I need to start get another car and get into my own projects again.

But it was still a good day, its running beautifully and frying tyres easily, even with f**k al timing added. He's very happy.

Its evoke metallic, holden (VE) colour. looks really dark in the shade and sparkley grey in the sun. think it should look good :)

Ignitor bracket fitted. need to order more pretty bolts to:

yeah gonna see about some titanium blue bolts for the covers, but as long as my half moons turn up this week I'll put them on this weekend. Should look the goods.

Will paint the CAS soon, pulled my old one apart the other day, so I know how to do that now. The inner bearing was pretty wrecked, no wonder it was making all that noise lol

    • 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.
    • In my head it does make sense to be a fuel problem since that is what I touched when cleaning the system. When I was testing with the fuel pressure gauge, the pressure was constantly 2.5 bar with the FPR vacuum removed. When stalling, the pressure was going up to 3.0 bar (which is how it should be on ignition).
    • ECUtalk pages don't mention they support the ABS computer (consult port has more than one CAN), so you might just need a different scan tool. But, I would expect ABS is a different light to the brake warning/handbrake light, do you see an ABS light come on for a few seconds when you turn the key from ACC to IGN? But since you said: I'd have a look at the ABS sensors in the rear hubs to make sure they are not damaged, disconnected etc.
