I was at Texi, I'll just be happy if I can pick it up on the Ignition DVD, or possibly something more specific (ie an SAU production) if it will have more footage than Ignition. I wanna see my car driven in anger "on TV" haha :)

I have a friend who would do some design stuff for you for credits. PM me.

FAQ :

What will it be about?

SAU nsw TV is basically Waynes World meets Top Gear.

Who will be presenting SAU nsw TV

At present, it's has been written to be hosted by Sl!im, Abo Bob and myself... why? Because a set has been constructed in our garage! and Sl!m is awesome and he and I have experience with similar work..

How can I watch SAU nsw TV?

SAU nsw TV will be uploaded monthly as webisodes on YouTube for all to see, then annually all episodes will be available on DVD with special features, outakes, "too hot for TV" moments and other generally unacceptable behavior.

What will an episode consist of?

Each 20 minute episodes will feature one special topical segment, one members car feature, one event wrap up and general news and hosting.

What I need/How you can help?

Firstly, I need a graphic designer or anyone savvy with photoshop to come on board to give me a hand with a few bits and pieces.

Further more, if you fancy yourself a good talking head, have ideas for segments that you wish to help produce or just want to be involved, pm me.

If you want your car featured, Ignition style, doesn't matter how modded or near standard it might be, let me know, the goal is interaction and hopefully over time we can get everyone a feature.

What's the point?

The point of this is to ultimately create something we can all be proud of! Something that can all be involved in and have fun with. Something that will serve as a testament to how truly awesome the club is and mark the memories along the way.

Another goal is of course to get new members on board and paid up, to make the club 3-dimensional in that respect.

On a side note, this is not going to be a slap dash effort, it will be professionally produced by me, with licensed music, excellent editing and production values.

So, let's open the floor to suggestions, segments, volunteers etc etc!

Please note, participation is for Club Members only! SO get involved! http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/t44115.html

    • 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.
