I thought i would give this a go for a bit of fun when i go to my gf's house with a whole pack of v8's that live over the road.

Im a little unsure on what to do...

Steps 1, 2 and 3 i can do (is it saying i should hear lumpy idle now?)

Where it says to turn the car off and dial back the crank angle sensor, is that listed under 'cranking'?

I think the rest is pretty straight forward after that.

Cheers

1. Turn car ON

2. SETTING, IGN/INJ

3. Press DOWN 1 time

If you observe lumpy idle then note the number ie: -1 If you don't observe lumpy idle, press DOWN again. Keep repeating until you get lumpy idle, don't go past -3 or -4 it's too much. Now with that number in mind do the following

1. Turn car OFF

2. Dial back the Crank Angle Sensor whatever number you had in IGN/INJ Adjust, so if you had -2 dial it back 2 deg

3. Turn car to ACC

4. Edit the IGN map and shift every cell UP whatever number you used in #2. So if it was -2 then add 2deg timing to every IGN cell on the map

3. Turn car ON

4. Observe lumpy idle

I remember when i first installed the GTR injectors and had the PFC base map it was lumpy as hell. It was that rich i think it would of fouled the plugs if i let it idle that long :)

So yeah adding more fuel at the cell at idle would make it do that also.

my tune does it every now and then, the main cause is its cell bouncing between different IGN spots, you can see it on map tracer, quickly swapping between two cells, if the ign varies alot on the adjacent cells it will lump around heaps. you can also getting it from messing with the afm ducting pipe width.

    • Yep, there's a very minor drift left that happens a few seconds after letting go of the steering wheel, but not enough to bother me. Enjoying the car still!
    • Got you mate. Check your email!
    • I see you've never had to push start your own car... You could save some weight right now...
    • Sounds good.  I don't 100% understand what your getting at here. When you say, "I keep seeing YouTube videos where people have new paint and primer land on the old clearcoat that isn't even dulled down" do you mean this - there is a panel with factory paint, without any prep work, they paint the entire panel with primer, then colour then clear?  If that's what you mean, sure it will "stick" for a year, 2 years, maybe 3 years? Who knows. But at some stage it will flake off and when it does it's going to come off in huge chunks and look horrific.  Of course read your technical data sheet for your paint, but generally speaking, you can apply primer to a scuffed/prepped clear coat. Generally speaking, I wouldn't do this. I would scuff/prep the clear and then lay colour then clear. Adding the primer to these steps just adds cost and time. It will stick to the clear coat provided it has been appropriately scuffed/prepped first.  When you say, "but the new paint is landing on the old clearcoat" I am imagining someone not masking up the car and just letting overspray go wherever it wants. Surely this isn't what you mean?  So I'll assume the following scenario - there is a small scratch. The person manages to somehow fill the scratch and now has a perfectly flat surface. They then spray colour and clear over this small masked off section of the car. Is this what you mean? If this is the case, yes the new paint will eventually flake off in X number of years time.  The easy solution is to scuff/prep all of the paint that hasn't been masked off in the repair area then lay the paint.  So you want to prep the surface, lay primer, then lay filler, then lay primer, then colour, then clear?  Life seems so much simpler if you prep, fill, primer, colour then clear.  There are very few reasons to go to bare metal. Chasing rust is a good example of why you'd go to bare metal.  A simple dent, there is no way in hell I'm going to bare metal for that repair. I've got enough on my plate without creating extra work for myself lol.
