attn Miso: Are you replacing all your brakes mang or just the fronts? What are you doing with the old ones?

Just the fronts at the moment. Don't have any bigger calipers/rotors for the back yet.

Was thinking of selling the old set. You looking for some brakes for project alfa?

I am sure we can work something out in exchange for your assistance to fit the upgraded brakes, and maybe a upper thigh deep tissue massage

Yeah I'm thinking I might try and fit some 32 brakes to the alfa. Should stop it on a dime.

Just let me know when you got time.

When we get them off, you can just keep them.

You sir, are an extremely generous bosni-serbo-croat!

I shall have to at least buy you a carton of *insert preferred beverage here*

On a similar awesome note, I just found the old rears off my car, so that will make a nice semi-matching set, assuming I can find suitable rotors for the rear....

As to time, yeah well that's the issue...

Sat morning I think I'm out, Saturday arvo is a possibility, pending what everyone else is doing.

Sunday I'm probably out - although if that's the time that suits everyone I think I can make it work.

Next weekend is good, but Dan will be away, and his expertise will be useful when doing brakes. We could try to tackle them without him but? Le mans 24 hour is on too, always fun to have something to watch while mechanicalising

Thoughts?

Jason, what still needs doing on your car? You got those boost fittings sorted yet?

No probs, next sat arvo is free. Probably suits me best, as there is no footy in Bris for me to go and watch, and have no games on.

The weekend after is ok, but I am on call for work, so might have to spend a bit of time on the phone.

We can work out a carton of something, and you can assist me in drinking it.

That's excellent news, especially since the latest bp oil leak in the gulf of mexico. little baby seals are thanking you now for ridding them of excess oil.

I may be able to get my hands on some stocker 33 ones. Would that help?

Mechanical issues fall outside my area of expertise.

That would be my guess also, but its just a guess.

I was just after the technical terms sheesh

The flux capacitor has deteriorated causing a feedback interference loop with the syncromesh gear ionisation device, resulting in dilution of the mechanical lubrication fluid, causing it to evaporate in the combustion chamber and/or bypass the piston sealing devices.

Is that technical ? :happy:

Define technical :thumbsup:

dont fit.

That's what she said

It's like... putting too much air in a balloon... and... something bad happens!

      RB25DE NEO with Haltech ECU

      By feartherb26 · Posted

      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.
