Hello All,

Haltech Engineering

556GraviT.net Pictures

I was out at Wakefield on a freezing cold day - Abo Bob and Ports were there (NSW Events) also.

Now for the best part, the Haltech team - testing - Brand Spanking R35 GTR!!!

Awesome group of blokes from Haltech allowed me to take some pictures.

Click the links and Enjoy!!!!

Regards,

Haltech R35 GTR pics all over the place on...

NSW Subforums>Events>Surprise Official SAU Dyno Day 16th August especially Pages 9 & 10.

Photography thanks to 'Sl!m' and 'God_speed' which were sent on to NAGTROC o'seas.

Thanks also to Envy Imports as they launched their new machine to music and the Haltech R35 GTR.

Enjoy!

Last month at the Powerplay Imports day they were doing 1:09:5s - from memory that was a totally stock car, stock tyres etc...

My inital response was just going to be... "Quick!"... lol

Was it dry. That is a decent time...only i would have expected it to be 3 to 4 seconds quicker

hmm I don't know that they were the world's best driver, but I don't think it has another 3-4 seconds on those tyres, probably only 1 or 3. remember its only got about as much power as your average vic track gtr, and 300kg more.

Yeh i suppose the tyres could have been shagged. But looking at how quick they are in all the magazine comparisons...the 997 GT2 does 1:04s at Wakefield. Russ kicked butt at Superlap in his doing i think 1:15s or 1:16s which compared to what the other cars were doing and their respective times at Wakefield...well i would have expected at least 1:06s.

But yes, perhaps tyres were shagged

I don't think thats a decent time at all.

sub 10's is mediocre these days. You need 8's or better to be considered quick

The NA silvia i just bought has a best of 1:09.3 at wakefield (natsoft) on the old surface. It has 120 rwkw....

You're right to expect 6's roy

This car was at the Eastern Creek private practise day on Friday 24th.

Certainly was not very quick - or was not as quick as I expected. I actually overtook him underbrakes into turn 2. I think they were just testing as opposed to trying to go flat out as I imagine it would be alot quicker that that.

In the 4th session the cars motor blew! It was sitting on the grass and had dropped oil on the track. They cancelled the session as a result.

Not a cheap track day eh ?

    • @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.
