had a little off last night in the hills, bit spewing cause it was right towards the end of the night last few corers from chain of ponds so im very familiar with the roads too

on the upside its minor and superficial could of backed myself into a gum tree and would be spewing even more

heres some pics might get chips and dents to take a look and see what they think alot of the front guard can be cut and polished to look a lot better and same with rear quarter

speed was not the cause of this accident was my back end steping out round a corner and when backwards though a barbed wire fence

Don't think a cut n' polish will get those scratches out. Looked like a respray is in order.

some of the scratches have a real whiteness to it cuting that will make it look a little better i am very well aware i will probably have to spend near on a g to get it all back to the way it was

Damn Steve sorry to hear about that! Atleast you came out alright and everything else is fine. You seem to have a good attitude towards it too. If you want me to recommend you an awesome crash repairer that does some great work, PM me, they are near us so you won't have to go far to get a quote :D

give that a try on that dent... i always wanted to see if it worked but didnt want to dent my own car...

take it easy up there today if anyone is going for a cruise, its practically a river on some roads.

i think cut n polish made it look a little better only did bonnet and front fender

    • If you take the top half of the intake off you can unbolt the flap off the shaft and leave the shaft in there blocking the hole. Then you can remove the little vacuum canister off from under the manifold and get a spare vacuum line to run to the ECU. I can take some photos of it later. Probably best to get the vacuum source to the ECU sorted first though. Mine all worked mint with the base map from the GTT an I've pretty much let the closed loop sort the fueling and took 1 degree out of the whole timing map.
    • This IS something you also have to configure in Haltech (or at least I did in the past when going from onboard-to-ECU map sensor and an external MAP sensor in haltech land).
    • I'm hoping it's something as simple as the ECU is looking for an external MAP sensor, but he is trying to use the onboard MAP sensor.
    • You won't need to do that if your happy to learn to tune it yourself. You 100% do not need to do that. It is not part of the learning process. It's not like driving on track and 'finding the limit by stepping over the limit'. You should not ever accidently blow up an engine and you should have setup the ECU's engine protection to save you from yourself while you are learning anyway. Plenty of us have tuned their own cars, myself included. We still come here for advice/guidance/new ideas etc.  What have you been doing so far to learn how to tune?
    • Put the ECU's MAP line in your mouth. Blow as hard as you can. You should be able to see about 10 kPa, maybe 15 kPa positive pressure. Suck on it. You should be able to generate a decent vacuum to about the same level also. Note that this is only ~2 psi either way. If the MAP is reading -5 psi all the time, ignition on, engine running or not, driving around or not, then it is severely f**ked. Also, you SHOULD NOT BE DRIVING IT WITHOUT A LOAD REFERENCE. You will break the engine. Badly.
