lunch time nigs. Time for nandos. Then after that I should probably do some work...probably.

Me too im getting so behind at work cause of all the thread commotion :banana:

-.-;

Just came back from a meeting and I've gotta read 4 pages worth. Well not really worth read after finishing it. WHORES!

Dan: you'll get there eventually and maybe faster if you didnt get the 34! You could probably buy a cheap 34gtr with the money you've spent so far.

I wouldnt have to settle for a cheap one with the money I have spent. :banana: Turn back time!!!! lets do it.

lol. Return it no less than 30 days before you purchased it. Shouldn't be too hard with a flux capacitor on board eh.

Haha... I dont care what you call me because to each his own. To me, my top priority is to get the homeloan down to reasonable level and get a 2nd one.

i am just not getting overly involved in the whole wedding cost thing. i figure i let her go, then i can go nuts on the car next year. every time she says "but...." my reply is, we spent 30k on the wedding.

we already own two properties and a block of land so no need to save for anything else.

what time are you guys planning on being down there tonight, and till when? I have a work function at Ribbets at 7pm. Think it should be done by 8:30ish

Will swing past see if you are still there

Correct

BUT . . . . It wouldnt be as fast or as sexy as the gtt is going to be when its finished :banana:

LMAO. Thats the way. Now you've got the excuse for that. But in any case, the price you're paying sound pretty decent for a wedding. And in most cases, the catering's the killer. Lucky I got the "red packet" deal which helped a fair bit.

Correct

Maybe true to the 1st part but IMO, never to the 2nd (unless you've got a full kit which probably wouldnt look like a gtt anyway). My love for 34gtr has never changed.

Second point is debatable :)

How much power are you expecting after its all tuned up?

    • 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.
