Hay Westsiders are you

meeting anywhere for the cruise up?

Maybe Ring Road Maccaz or something....

Like a guy posted earlier - im a bit worried

about cops turning up checking our cars

Dunno...

Think people from the west are supposed to meet up at "Western Ring Road Mobil/McDonalds (inbound)." Up to you guys/girls if you want to organise a little cruise to the pre-meet spot.

I must admit, I'm a little worried the police are going to turn up and end the night early. :P

Edit: How did 2 posts get in before me. I must be a slow ass typer. ;)

I'm really looking forward to this meet. But maybe holding a statewide meeting of hotted up skylines on a Friday night in Albert Park with 3 square km of visibility and absence of noise barriers (including Police HQ on Flinders), is not such a good idea??

Anyone else think an alternate mid-weekday night and less prominent venue PM'd to members who show an interest might be more prudent? :(

The MegaMart is a place I used to see Nissan Silvia meet at, they were *usually* ok for a while, if your going to sit there for a long time I would certainly not recommend hanging around...

There's no cruise planned for after Albert Park...This is more of a meet and greet style event. Anyone thats been to an east meet will know what its like...

Having said that, there's nothing stopping anyone organizing something on the night with whoever else is up for it.

I think I have a promo job on Friday the 20th :banana:

Dezz can i still become a $50 member if i cant come lol

if im not working that night ill deff be there tho!!

looks like now i'll be working that night too...

but if anyone is out and about and organising a cruise after i'll come from work so keep us updated

Just meet us at the last meeting point after work...

    • @Haggerty this is your red flag. In MAP based ECU's the Manifold pressure X RPM calculation is how the engine knows it is actually...running/going through ANY load. You are confusing the term 'base map' with your base VE/Fuel table. When most people say 'base map' they mean the stock entire tune shipped with the ECU, hopefully aimed at a specific car/setup to use as a base for beginning to tune your specific car. Haltech has a lot of documentation (or at least they used to, I expect it to be better now). Read it voraciously.
    • I saw you mention this earlier and it raised a red flag, but I couldn't believe it was real. Yes, the vacuum signal should vary. It is the one and only load signal from the engine to the ECU, and it MUST vary. It is either not connected or is badly f**ked up in some way.
    • @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.
