No worries Jess.

Picton Sounds good.....................There are a few pubs to choose from and the people I mean girls sorry I mean lady folk are friendly :P

It does not compare to WILTON though even thiugh it's on the other side of the freeway :( go away pictonites

Oh yeah im probably in for what ever cruise/meet you got on long as some one pm's me event because i rarely use the computer. Good to see there is locals aye see you all soon..

if you mean tyhe blue 34 in smack fields that is not joey, as he has a silver 34.

it is a nice car that widebody blue thing. i wonder if there is a motor in there to match the huge gtc's

16th it is. picton it is. now go organise lol

i would prefer a bbq afternoony thing over standing there at night time

were doing a park/resevre type meet guys.

Sorry but there is no way picton can be feasable with the ammount of people we had last time.

Polaak is the place you suggested easy to access??

Shane what about yours?

Perhaps a drive is in order over the weekend paul?? (I still got one legit non defected GTR to use)

austinmer beach is a pretty good place for us i rekn.

only issue which Paul raised would be parking space.

its about 10-15 minutes from wollongong CBD.

i havnt been there for a couple of years but my brother says its still in good shape.

we could also Maybe go to Shell Harbour as polak said --> lots of parking!

i think the park/reserve type cruise is a great idea. good way to spend the day and celebrate Jeffs B'day!

heres some more options..

Killalea Beach

Shell Harbour Beach North

Stanwell Park Beach

all three have bbq facilities, picnic areas, kiosk, car park + the rest we need.

Joeyz do you live on Atchison road at all in mac fields???
Just wanna know because there is a guy with a similar car is all.. thought it might be you.
Thats the one! thought it was his car in the display pic lol so thought it may be his. That mock gtr looks sweet though aye.

Sorry Rick

I live in Wilton and i only use the pic cause i would love to own one one day and it's a good size for it. If you look close enough i got the pic off Cars Guide or one of thoes sites.

If i recall, i meet you at Krispy's that night :)

    • 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.  
    • 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.
