mitchy what happened to your car??

only did one run eyy then took off and saw some smoke coming form the rear... turbine eyy???

i got footage of that 33 spinning out! MADNESS! some one owes the big man

huh? Mitchy's car was running?

Let me guess...the smoke was from the heat off his feet losing traction on the track trying to launch it...a-la flinstone style :D haha

yeh I saw it as he was collecting the time slip... wasn't it a fresh engine? can't be happy about having to yank it out again!

So what were the other GTR times for the night... who had the fastest time from our lane???

anyone know whats been done to that bloke's car who spun out 1/4 track

It has been tuned by a new workshop called "YOGA"... he was simply trialing out "salute to the sun" (a yoga position), and since the sun was setting he had to slide it to the west.......... what a dedicated student.

Had a great fun night, put up some poor time but hey first time there. Was great to see all the lines out and had some good chats to alot of ppl!

Only did a 14.4, but the car has a very big dead spot on 4000 which has baffled me... oh well great experiance!

Was a Good Night... and enjoyed racing other skylines...

I had traction problems n i think my Tyres r going. I couldn't even get into the 13'z

where last time i could get into 13'z easily. Was a bit frustratin... cuz i was aimin to get mid to low 13'z,

would of got quicker times if just rolled off slowly haha..

Had a good run wif Strich9 where i mis-shifted going into 2nd to 3rd.. n i was just bouncing off the Redline :(

so ne 1 got High 11'z or What?????

Haha, funny shit :(

Was glad everyone enjoyed themselves, even if the times weren't what we all hoped for :laugh:

I was right next to him and there was alot of smoke coming out the back..... I would like to know what it was. My guess is a oil line burst onto the engine.

thats what it looked like from the people up top! lil bit of smoke might be f*kall!

    • @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.
