I am always making the drive from down south so i don't know what all the fuss is about!!!

I am north during the week and south on weekends and generally at all SAU dinners no matter where they are!!!

Then i work down Outer Harbour way so i rack up quite a few KM's duing the week, it is just great to socialise with everyone!!!

Before nightcrawler jumps in, he porbably does more than quite a few of us combined and he drive the 34 everyday.

sheesh! Ok mabye it was a bit harsh but meh. For the majority of people the location is fine, and majority rules.

Most as they have said, are more than willing to drive the distance if need be to catch up with everyone.

Maybe i shouldnt have said i dont give a rats &*$ but u seriously expected me to change it for just 1 or 2 people? come on.

*end of that topic*

annnyway, thanks nightcrawler for editing my post with the date. Ill leave it a few days before i ring them and book, at least if i book a certain number i have a few weeks to add or take from it. Not like last time where 20 or so said they would turn up, yet we got half that number.. so we had the huge table all to ourselves!

Your right steve... we would make the drive out there... perhaps if the dinners become a more regular thing we could take it turns as to which side of town it is?? just a thought... i won't be offended if no one agrees haha

I don't mind travelling to catch up with the peeps, from leaving my house Saturday, driving to TTG to pick up the gf, then to arndale, Kel's cruise, then back to TTG, 160km's!

PK if you read this, u better go! I Havent seen u in ages! And nene, would be good to catch up with you guys too, hope u can make it.
We'll be there for sure Flick... will be great to c u again... and i haven't seen pk since auto salon so your right... he HAS to come so we can catch up.

Yeah tis been awhile & that date should be fine so, will catch up with yas then. :thumbsup:

also, I'll be putting up the $20 in 20min challenge again provided they get the proper mega schnitzel & not that weak'soz x2 small schnitty.

If it was in town it would take us over an hour to get there....we'd still come though

Yeah us northerners get a local meet for a change! Im not QUITE as far north as you guys but far enough :thumbsup:

If it was in town it would take us over an hour to get there....we'd still come though

Well aaah would walk 500 miles, and ahh would walk 500 more, jes tee be the man who walked 10,000 miles to eat a schnitty or 4..

-D

Hi guys, we would be keen to come, it's been a while since we've been out!

+1 to join the north ghetto group :thumbsup:

Im sure Connor will take you up on that $20 challenge PK. Its a shame last time he ate it and didn't get the free drink from Mawson's. Do they actually do the free drink thing??

    • 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.
