Inner West Crew Whoretown (toowong/st Lucia/kenmore/indooroopilly And Sometimes Sunnybank?)


Recommended Posts

Yep I have the manwell for it. I downloaded it from the website. I went to the off setting and it didn't seem to do anything. It was still giving me infinity boost.

F*ck, that's not good :ermm:.

Bring the manwell tonight, saves me having to print it.

Lol @ NASA

Voyager 2: *Gibberish*

NASA dude 1: Hmmm, voyager 2 seems to be broken

NASA dude 2: Have you tried turning it off and on again?

NASA dude 1: Naah, we'd better figure out whats going on first

several days later...

NASA dude 1: Yeah I figured it out, theres a bit-flipped in memory

NASA dude 2: OK, how do we fix that then?

NASA dude 1: Lets try turning it off and on again...

ATTN: Phil, Misohorny, John, Dan

Work out a day that works for everyone to fix Jasons AVCR and do Miso's brakes. Dan will need his brake bleeder. I can't do it this weekend though.

I am easy. Just let me know and i shall be there. Can work it out tonight at baskins. No longer jet lagged, so won't sleep through it. :ermm:

Sounds expensive. So whats doing mangs? I'm typing meeting minutes :D

Trying to clean up scanned alfa wiring diagrams to print. HOPEFULLY they are the right ones :S

Cool, sounds like it will be a good turn out tonight. Thristian, you coming?

Very expensive. You can only import them.

Anytime is good for me ( if i can afford to drive there :D ) I'm on day shift this week and next and have this weekend and next one off. :ermm:

I think tonight we will just bypass the AVCR and pipe the wastegate actuator directly to a boost source. This should put you back to stock boost (stock LOW boost probably) which will get you by (and hopefully fix your fuel economy) untill we can sort it out. Hopefully next weekend will work for everyone.

If it still boosts it's t*ts off, or you still get bad fuel economy, then you have other problems.

I'm not 100% sure how the AVCR can be ruining your fuel economy so much, if anything I would have thought it would make it better as you'd be trying to drive off boost all the time...

o2 sensor? when was that last replaced?

I've only had shitty fuel economy since the avcr. But it is getting worse and worse. How much is a o2 sensor ?

Jason... did you let you car hang out with mine again? I started her up this morning and she was all lumpy and shaking and carrying on, and drives like a bucket of shit :down:

Just letting it cool down now so I can see if I can work out wtf is going on with it ;)

like $100ish i think man

i have a spare good one you could try - if they fit (its an sr one)? idk if they do

was the avcr new? who installed the avcr? i'd give them a bell maybe they f**ked up? (or was it you that fitted it :down:) jks jks

    • 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.
    • In my head it does make sense to be a fuel problem since that is what I touched when cleaning the system. When I was testing with the fuel pressure gauge, the pressure was constantly 2.5 bar with the FPR vacuum removed. When stalling, the pressure was going up to 3.0 bar (which is how it should be on ignition).
    • ECUtalk pages don't mention they support the ABS computer (consult port has more than one CAN), so you might just need a different scan tool. But, I would expect ABS is a different light to the brake warning/handbrake light, do you see an ABS light come on for a few seconds when you turn the key from ACC to IGN? But since you said: I'd have a look at the ABS sensors in the rear hubs to make sure they are not damaged, disconnected etc.
    • OK, if it idles at 1000+ with the AAC, its not an idle airflow problem. The cold start valve just gives extra air when the engine is cold, but you have enough air without it to idle at 1000. I think you are back to a fuel problem, sorry. Can you see the fuel pressure staying constant or does it drop as the revs drop to a stall?
