Out of curiosity what offsets are they?

I have been looking for some decent 18" rims to suit my s1 for ages and its so rare to see 4 x equal width rims!

Maybe these can be it :rofl:, can you find out how much postage would be from Rocky to Brisbane (pcode 4105).

The offsets I dont really know offhand, but i have the original boxes they came in somewhere at home, I'll do a look later on tonight for you and post them then.

Well postage for 1 18" rim, (not the tyre just the rim) from rocky to gold coast was ~$40, and it was right on the limit of what Aust-Post were willing to ship. so you would probably have to ring up some courier services or something like "Pack-n-Send" or contact the bus's and see if i can put them on the bus here in rocky and have you grab them when they get to Brisbane?

But I just dont have the time to run around to organize postage, so not to be rude, but if you are seriously interested in them,then you will have to organize the postage.

If I had a half decent reliable car I would offer to drive them down to you for ~$200, but atm I dont actually have anything that would make it down and back.

Also apparently the stuff on the chrome bit is the clearcoat peeling. I did gently pick a tiny bit off and it still looks fine underneath, so I am assuming that with a good polish they would come up fine?

Also they bolted straight up to my old S1 Stagea, so I would see no problems with them bolting up to yours?

Pictures of them on my old stagea:

need me to drive them down to brissy Cy??... i can pick them up Tuesday...

.. unless i buy them... i can;t decide on them or CAI's - or 34GTR - or emergency moneys for my trip to tassy...

Well we can bolt them up and you can see what they look like on Tuesday if you want to?

Also it'll be up to rubba to organize with you to take them down for him. But it means he'll have to pay me before Tuesday as well.

Pics of us test fitting them to Chris's beast: (Yes that is Chris in the pics, and the boy with the white t-shirt on is my son)

Both my daughter and son kept asking Chris if this was our car, and if he had brought it back :blink:

That mustve been heart-breaking man... really wouldve been. A friend of mine had to let go of his car due to financial circumstances. Loved it to pieces, always washing it such. Sold it, for no-where near its value and had to watch the guy who bought it drive past him on the way to work everyday.

If that wasnt bad enough, the guy then wrote it off on the way to work, and my mate drove past and saw the car with the cops and ambos around. It was 3 weeks after he'd sold it.

Will you get another stagea cy? I cant wait to get one hey...

hey cy looks like my stageas twin brother ha ha .would always sell her back to you mate anytime .from one good home to another and back ha ha but with more grunt then 12 cops this time .

nice

if I win the lotto cy would have a stagea in his driveway again

dale will have to beg :D

Most probably not eh, But I am really gald bernard bought it, as he has treated it with all the goodies I probably would never been able to afford to do.

Yeah maybe if I find that elusive money tree, and then I would probably go a 260RS, but would be VEEERY tempted to get the old girl back, I bet she goes a lot better now with the new turbo! :)

<starts praying for a lotto win for Brendo> :D

    • @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.
