Yea you can count on Dave anytime. Let me know if you dont have his number. He's like those mobile RACQ only better. HAHAHA!

count on and dave should never be used in the same sentence and my number is 1800 lick me :P RACQ on the other hand can be counted on.

Car broke down yesterday.

Not happy :(

:P

I think my thermostat isn't working :) Temp on the dash board said it was ok but when it was cool it took two litres of water in the radiator. Fouled up one of the plugs and was only running on 5 cylinders. A hose on the intake was split and sucked a bunch of sh_t into the throttle body. Fun fun fun... considering I only just got it serviced not that long ago :)

Seems to be ok now. Keep my fingers crossed and everything else too

all fixed? hopefully whoever serviced it can fix it up :)

jase thats f**kin ghey !!

on the other hand this might cheer you up...

ello fellas,

seems like u guys had fun on the cruise, sorry couldnt cum i was tired from all the twistie driving at springbrook i did all night long on saturday,

anyway hopefully if Dan replies by 2marrow morning, car is going to ERD tomorrow to begin work on tranmission, currently due to lack of funds im only doing the gearbox rebuild, cam gears, front pipes, high flow cat, and apexi power fc, and then the service, keeping the rims and tyres and not sure if any monies will be left for the suspension kit.

aiming for 250awkw at 1 bar after everything is done,

and oh yeh getting sum guages and apexi boost controller kit as well :ninja:

cyaz all after everythin is done,

Ok so i am unfortunently back in range of mobile and internet coverage, enjoyed my 10 days away from it all though. 454km each way in my 31 with hard suspension isn't the best for your back though.

35km of dirt road however.......

Cleaned the plug it was all fouled up. Started it up and idled ok. You go to the hamilton pub ? Im sure I've seen your car parked there a couple of times.

Hahahaha it's funny you should mention that, I know the car you mean and it looks a lot like mine! I've seen it there a handful of times too.

I parked in the dan murphys car park one night, went in and got some yumyums, and when I came out he'd parked next to me, and I suddenly had a business card on my window that was advertising a facebook group about drifting? I think I still have it somewhere, I'll try and find it. Not sure if it was him who did it, but I cna only put 2 and 2 together here hahahaha...... I mean c'mon!

What are you like at placing, say a nut onto a bolt?

cross threaded. every time.

congrats!!

spanks :ninja:

Now, you, me* and Mt Cotton next year :)

*Chance's of my car moving in the next 12 months are slim to nothing

Hell keen to hit up that mt cotton track attack day next yeah hey :ninja:

cross threaded. every time.

spanks :)

Serious? Work on my car, i need some cross threaded action.

Do the Tighe Cams Series, but keep an eye on the MGCC site for the entry form, they get mailed to people who have enter'd in the past and 9 times out of 10 the series fill's up via the mail-outs pretty quick.

    • 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. 
    • Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
