The day after TAS and im feeling good. The event was unreal and superbly presented. All the tuning houses came out in force, with companies like Pheonix Power, Option magazine, Top secret, Junction Produce and fabulous being notable standouts, as did a ton of trade exhibitors, thousands of tune up parts, and many 10's of thousands of people. this is the 3rd salon for me and i live an hour away from the complex so im sure it wont be the last time ill see it.

one of my biggest recommendations to Australians is to come out here and see it if you are serious about your cars. Nothing and i mean NOTHING in Oz can compare in size or quality or amount.

The place was crammed chock a block full of automotive goodness.

oh did i forget to mention the girls?? if i wasnt married, a lot of them would be in trouble. Simply stunning varieties of Japanese sushi complete with the obligatory flat stomach and D cups..

theres nothing better than a hot girl to complement a phat ride.

anyway, the event was better than last year, and there was much more to do and see.

It was well organized and executed. You would ideally need 2 days to get around and see everything. 1 day and you could get through most of it but the second day would be to make sure you actually saw what you saw after talking about it over a six pack the night before.

enjoy the pics. Ive got a ton of them but ill try to post what i think are the best ones.

if you want more, just ask me.

as i said before Pheonix Power was especially good.

The Blue and gold GTR's were simply stunning and putting out 900ps!

The black supra they had was equally breathtaking and had 1000ps!! the thing was a total sleeper.post-33653-1168825828.jpgpost-33653-1168825886.jpgpost-12730-1123035141.gifpost-33653-1168826153.jpgpost-33653-1168826298.jpg[attachm

It may have jaw dropping power, but that pale blue R32 has the worst GTR colour choice ever.

horses for courses.

i thought it looked stunning. You should see it up close. The engine bay was one of the best ive seen..smooth clean annihilating powerhouse.

I also think it looks quite nice. Suits the car in my mind

The white lettering on the tyres is a pretty cool "old muscle" touch

Some of the guys are serious deviats - A previous year when I was there this crazy Jap armed with a massive DSLR pushed me a aside and dropped on the ground at a promo girls feet and proceeded photographing her up-skirt style.

Nobody cared :glare:

its really interesting..

this thread isnt taking off and im a little shocked. some would rather talk about when the gtr stopped racing!

umm...ok. maybe i should post piictures of naked versions of the qutosalon chicks..

here are some more...

the horniest 430 you will ever see. Fabulous turned out some truly luscious cars..post-33653-1168841707.jpg

    • 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.
