tough break duncan :D sorry to hear motor# 11ty cried enough. i know you are a glutton for punishment but maybe think about getting the next one done at a different machine shop.... it can't all just be bad luck.. can it?

shame to see you out early too lofty. still you are going to have a ball in that thing when it's sorted. it will make driving your ip spec GTR feel like you have the handbrake stuck on!

:unsure: i've been held captive all weekend

i'll have to drop it off at autosport sometime this week :P

i have to chat to greg about my new motor, and putting it in... ahh i am lazy!

No rush, i have plenty of other crap to keep me occupied atm.

I may want them injectors your selling too.

Duncan seems like the only things to survive the weekend were falcodores. A few rotors let go as well.

Ol Rambows getting a new engine before wakefield now as well, nothing wrong with his old dinosaur plonker but his become greedy and wants more grunt.

You have been using Mike Hanley for sealing??

Edited by Risking
yeah I'm using Mike as well. But we dont bother sealing it half the time. Just don't have the time to wait.

Speaking of sealing,,,how funny was it when old Mike waited for like 1/2 an hour while we tried drilling through the head gasket.

Poor Mark killed about 6 drill bits trying to get through a bloody head gasket. We all gave up and went to the front.

    • 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.
