lol. nah.. andrew is retarded at driving turbo cars.

just cos I like to use the spin pedal! :thumbsup:

Here are some videos from my car:

I wish I had new RE55S again instead of cooked A048Rs, but I went faster than last time so it wasn't too bad :)

yeah mona.. he's ok! car.. not so ok! I'll tell you about it on email tomorrow oki

and thanks for the support too!!! I wish you could have come for a spin aswell!!!! And you're right, the circuit club are such a top bunch of blokes! they made me feel sooooooo welcome!!!!

okies :)

and i'll be back!!! once my baby is run in! :P yeah.. narada is a champ :yes: i couldn't imagine anyone better to run CC :D Have already told him i'll be supporting most of his days when the ol girl is in working order :D

George said the damage was all cosmetic on JDM Style Tuning.

oh whew!! poor guy :(

Hey Guys and Gals,

I had an awesome afternoon at Eastern, its so much faster than Wakefield.Thanks Liz, Andrew, Tim, Jerry ,Vincent and others for your help throughout the morning and early afternoon while i was changing a few things. All was fine afterwoods..hey and guess what BHDave the car did over 180kph with a standard ecu well over 180 surprise surprise, cant wait for another go at it as my times were lowering with every lap,next time i'll drive for the whole day and not half a day. Has anyone checked out their photo's at JDM's website? worth a look if your interested. cheers

Oh hello Carlo, Sorry i couldnt be any more help at putting your car together. But many thanks for the tyre gauge!

i had a ball for my first track day, Next time

Catch can, airbox, More video tape, and a tune so i can cut back on my 144km's a full tank.. (is that normal for a gtr track day??)

after watching my video i can see where i can make up time. so next time hopefully i can better the 1:59.7 i did

i also noticed i was actually having boost problems oh high setting. now i know why i couldnt get past that torana on the straight

there are alot of photos on

I went through 3/4 of a tank and keep in mind I'm pretty stock

    • I saw you mention this earlier and it raised a red flag, but I couldn't believe it was real. Yes, the vacuum signal should vary. It is the one and only load signal from the engine to the ECU, and it MUST vary. It is either not connected or is badly f**ked up in some way.
    • @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.
