Friday Night Mountain Run - January


Recommended Posts

Here it is, the mountain run for January.

We Rescouted yesterday and a suitable route was picked out. I had quite a blast up there so it should be good for friday night.

Dinner will be at the Lone Star near Springwood crazy clarks.

There will have to be several group leaders I think as the route is quite complex and not a whole lot of places to stop off.

Where: Mt Tambourine and Surfers Paradise

When: 12/01/07

Exact Timings:

Northside Meetup - 6:30 at Bunnings on stafford road, same place as last time - leave 7:00 SHARP - if you miss it head to the southside meetup

Southside Meetup - 7:00, enter lone star at 7:15

Depart springwood Lone Star at aprox 9:00 - head up highway to Mt Tamborine & Hope Island exit, arrive at bottom of mountain at aprox 9:30 - 9:45

Come off mountain at aprox 11:30, Finish up in surfers at around 12. Head back down the highway then to bed/whatever.

Cost/What to bring: FULL fuel tank, money for dinner. CB radios if we get that organized, I have a small one, will pick a channel on the night.

Done and done, the groups will be worked out on the night, I was only really planning to have 3 or 4 ahead of me with the main body of the group behind me. If everyone says there in the faster group, well, it will defeat the point.

I will be going at about the same pace that i was going last time.

not to sure if this date would be such a good idea as the following day consist of the dyno day SAU QLD is organising.

Only thought people would have in deterring themselves away from this run would be any accidents that maybe caused and not being able to turn up to the dyno day.

Other thing would deter people away is running a full tank of fuel around a mountain and then again another full tank on the dyno.

what meet up points (aiming for a Southside and north side meet up this time)

Mok if theres a southside meet up and a northside meet up, ill try and hop along with someone (nice) from southside to give me a ride to the big meet up........will save Ian many km's and stress

Anyone live near logan?...(yes im a bogan)

Also 12th sounds a bit funny with the dyno dates but it would be a good celebration seeing as i get my uni offer the day before....hehe

Because its on a friday im sure ill be coming, work shouldnt hold me back past 5pm in the new year.

Count me in hun!

Anyone live near logan?...(yes im a bogan)

AAHHHHH!!!!!! BOGAN!!!! :dry:

sorry, that just came out for some reason. i also live on the southside as well if you need a ride.

definately count me in for this!!! :O i have been waiting for so long for a mountain run cruise. Boostloosing kicked me out for starting one :P i'll bring one other car with me, so make that two cars and two for lunch

We scouted last night, we decided the route we were taking was poor road quality - it was a fun drive with lots of twisties and plenty of fun but too many bumps, johno's car scraped many times and karen complained of the bumps too much :dry:

Were still going to do mt tambourine, however theres several routes up there and were going to pick a different one and rescout it in a few weeks.

We also got lost in surburban mt tambourine at one stage! Dodgy internet maps......

lilmike - what type of car are u bringing along as your consort?

my 33 skyline and my mates 32, and possibly a 34 as well! all gtst's though.

oh i meant to say dinner not lunch, but i guess you got the idea.

Edited by lilmike86

I'll see if I'm still in Brisbane but I'd be keen, work wants to send me to Melb it seems and planning to sell my 33 for a 32gtr... so very subject to location/owning a skyline.

Also in logan... well sort of (just inside Beaudesert and out of bogan, I'm a yokle y'all!).

Let's yas know.

Cheers,

Ben

my car, 2 for dinner, South side meet up. Slow group cos my Fiancé has a thing about me going to fast (just finish a 1 year licence disqualification).

    • 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.
    • 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).
