Don't break your cars anytime soon.

Nissan Motor Co said it would resume production at its Kyushu plant on Thursday and Friday for as long as inventories of parts last. Other auto-assembly plants, as well as its Yokohama engine plant, will remain closed. Nissan did not disclose the number of vehicles affected.

Nissan said transmission plants were damaged and have stopped operations because of another earthquake on Tuesday in Shizuoka, southwest of Tokyo.

what's the headcount like for this afternoon?

I should be able to manage yet another one of my brief pit stops

Will be there for a similar pitstop.

I'm in for tonight. Probably walking however :( New radiator won't be ready for another week or so and after the radiator goes in it still needs to be sent to EFI for tuning so it may be two more weeks until I have her back. At least I should have a few more killerwasps for the hive with the intercooler and new ECU and it won't go boom with the PWR radiator :)

Nice!

I fixed it!

That's my days work right there.

Good shit bru.

Good Job, Team.

Mr Motorvation right here.

Thats what she said.

THat's what she said.

I like you, Noel

That's what Marty said.

fixed

AS in Neutered?? :blink:

They don't make parts for 31s any more anyway.

Will be there for a similar pitstop.

I now have a nice stainless dump and front pipe for teh stag.

Dump and front pipe

Bit eBay Spec, but it'll do for $120 :D

Doesn't look too bad :thumbsup:

Got the old lady out of horsepetal today so probably a no show tonight.

That seems like good news :)

Give my regards to the girls and tell them thanks for the mamarys.

Will do.

You think I sit at my desk with clothes on...

I think you don't have a desk and this is all a ploy to make us think you are someone important!

I knew as soon as someone mentioned 'that's what she said', you'd show up lol

You're right :(

It's really just a stainless table from IKEA. Looks like something you'd cut an animal up on :shrugs: Maybe I'm Brisbanes very own Dexter.

My ears where burning... What can I say!

Not the thighs of someone rubbing on them?

LOL.

Picked up some brake pads on the way home, putting them in on sunday. One thing to cross off the list.

One of the many pics of the Japan aftermath.

Not sure what the car was, but I wouldn't mind the brakes of it.

Will have to spend some time perusing japan auctions in the upcoming months :P

    • @Haggerty this is your red flag. In MAP based ECU's the Manifold pressure X RPM calculation is how the engine knows it is actually...running/going through ANY load. You are confusing the term 'base map' with your base VE/Fuel table. When most people say 'base map' they mean the stock entire tune shipped with the ECU, hopefully aimed at a specific car/setup to use as a base for beginning to tune your specific car. Haltech has a lot of documentation (or at least they used to, I expect it to be better now). Read it voraciously.
    • 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.
