I'm having a pretty decent Friday apart from being über tired.

my day was facken busy as per usual lately. i wish to thank the lovely person who did our bbq today. great food.

now john is making me think i need to spend more $$ on my car.... and he is right of course.

benno if i knew you were drinking over the road i would have come over.

Anyone drive through the valley this morning around 10? and heard a bang?

that might have happend, Z28 Camaro ripping skids hit into the parked mazda 3 which pushed into the parked corolla, moving them forwards a long way. Driver of the camaro is only a tow truck driver who was ment to be delivering the car to its new owner...... :domokun:

Hey Dan, I will SMS you next time I am over there drinking. Had a great night. Sat around drinking Aperol, tonic and lime for a few hours then sat down to dinner with the owners or Tartufo and the owners of Montrachet for dinner which involved many bottles of wine and loads of scotch and cognac. Didn't stop drinking until 2am. Feeling a little seedy right now.

Regarding that Camaro, I hope the towie is drawn and quartered! I feel for the owner.

Morning Mangs

I am short a helmet and pads now, the rest i have slowly replaced! and since i get hit in the legs ALL the time I bought the epicest thigh pad set up ever lol

My helmet was about the only thing left of my old outdoor gear that was still usable!

And from my indoor gear, only the bat and box are any good for outdoor...

My tendency is more to get hit in the face, so I don't rock thigh pads :P

Just spend it you skirt.

That's what she said.

Aperol? Really? Freaking aperitifs, hate them all. For a lighter drink I'll take Hendricks Gin with Cucumber and soda in a long glass.

Hendricks is nice with cucumber but adding soda ruins it.

Seriously try an Aperol with tonic and fresh lime. I don't usually like most aperitifs but this concoction is very refreshing and because of all the tonic water it is a good way to start a long night of drinking due to the hydration properties :) I should be feeling like hell right now but instead I just feel tired.

that is ridiculous.

I am always paranoid of leaving my car at unknown workshops that some prick might be taking it out for a spin.

    • 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.
    • 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).
