Hehehe - thats my cruise :D

Hey just checking if cruise is still on wanna make sure im coming from geelong and its my first one. Also can you confrim exact meeting point address. Is it just for skylines or are all cars welcome cause ive got few mates with s15s. Thanks :)

meeting at rooftop of doncaster shopping town. route i dunno but im sure we can figure it out

* Freeway to Ferntree Gully Rd (Bout the same but avoids knox tmu)

Your kidding yourself, Knox tmu are not just at KNOX itself...

Ferntree gully rd is regularly patrolled by a good friend of all of ours from the knox tmu.

especially at the base of the mountain around the pool room and ferntree gully hotel.

You have posted meet points and the route you will be taking...

so don't be surprised if they intercept you somewhere along the way.

From my experience in planning cruises, shopping center car parks are a bad idea.

Especially on a saturday night.

Tours.

ive just discovered this thread, (im a bit slow)

sounds like there is fun to be had. put me down as a maybe for now, gotta check that there is nothing else planed for me...

it would be nice to get the gtr out, as i only picked it up last week!

Basti - only in your dreams :)

And all I meant tours is that i avoids that piece of road in between Knox Police Station and Knox City which is probably the main part we would all want to avoid.

In the end its the organisers decision. I was just posting some options up as he was asking for suggestions.

Looking at Maps a bit more there is another route which isnt too complicated.

* Station St to Canterbury Rd (Left)

* Canterbury can be follow all the way there where we can turn right to get directly onto Mt Dandenong Rd.

OR

* From Canterbury Rd you can turn Right onto Dorset Rd.

* From Dorset Rd you can turn Left onto Burwood Hwy then take the Mt Dandenong Tourist Rd to the top.

Depending on which Rd you want to take up.

** Mt Dandenong Rd **

- Narrow Rd

- Very little lighting

- No guardrails

- Twisties

** Mt Dandenong Tourist Rd **

- Wider Rd

- Good Lighting

- More Traffic

- Some guardrails

- Not so twistie

So plan your route. We could go up one and down the other. Either way. Personally I dont like Mt Dandenong Rd due to a bad experience in the past, but either way. Organisers choice.

    • @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.
