i have no idea where people go haha i've hardly been anywhere appart from work and home haha i'll probably go for burn tonight, also i have a set of stock rims with kumho KU36 not sure on there condidtion but they have no gutterrash or anything and i dont want them haha what are they worth anyone wanna buy them? also have a set of stoc rims with unknown tires with out the centers that are on my car now that i won't need soon..

Yeah as Ben states, it's nothing special but it's all Mackay has to offer. Meetups at the harbour lol.

Hi Gents,

I only just realised that there is a Mackay section................

I was hoping that someone might know a competent haltech tuner in Mackay, any recommendations would be appreciated. It is a high HP fj20 engine in a DR30 coupe running a haltech E11.

I realise that Adrenalin used to do Haltech but have closed down. I was going to take it back to Aitkenvale Dyno in Townsville but if there was someone in Mackay i could trust that would be much preferred.

Cheers in advance.

So, my motor is finally built and paid for! (About time) Should be up here within 3 weeks after they do some final stuff to it. Next is a NPC clutch and then it'll be in the bay where it belongs! Just gotta buy my fuel setup and pipework! I cant wait to hit the black stuff again. I miss driving her. :(

Why Brisbane, man? You only just moved here didn't you?

Ah well me and my gf are wanting to leave Mackay, housing is too expensive along with everything else. Want a change and we can both get transfers in our work it's just a matter of finding a place. We've both liked Brisbane a lot and i've met loads of guys in the V series section that live in brissy and the community is great so i'd like to get amongst that too. Same with housing in Brissy is much more affordable.

I've been here about 14 months now though.

Yeah this place is rough if your not wearing an orange stripey shirt thats for sure.

Had some presents waiting for me when I got home from work this morning. Waiting on a fan before mine flies apart, paid for express and the non express item I ordered a day before got here first from the same place :S

Mainly just trying to decide what exhaust manifold I want to run. I still really want a 6boost.....

Yep :/ paying $550 atm for a 4 bedroom standard place at slade point, we can rent an apartment that looks like a mansion for $350 that has everything we need. Just seems to be the logical thing to do, but that's not for another 6 months we've decided.

    • @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.
