Getting the timing belt done with adjustable cam gears as well as a n1 water pump, harmonic balancer, crank and cam seals. The clutch is been replaced with probably a twin plate at this stage to handle the up and coming upgrades, probably with a lightened flywheel. Also doing split fire coil packs, maybe hks twin power system and installing a vipec ecu all before it gets dyno tuned. So should be good for approx 300 at all four wheels.

From there I will have to look at upgrading the fuel pumps and turbos all before the intercooler is changed out as everything is stock

Sounds good man :D

it was a 14 year old, 55kg aboriginal kid at work, and he only did because he knows that i am not allowed to crush him to death, or i will lose my blue card.

no serious damage, but fark i was pissed off.

Farken lol.

i know a bloke you can tag in, he's about the same weight a little older, he's also aboriginal.

Do it. I can sell tickets :D

Sounds good mang. Be careful running too much boost through the stock turbos they will most likely die with anything more than 1 bar.

I spy something in the back of that photo that looks familiar.......

Detective Dan strikes again?

    • 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.
    • 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.
