OK folks, with the final results accounted for and after much deliberation, I’d like to present the first SAU-SA Club, Board of Committee Members.

Without going into too much detail, I polled outright for 2 positions but unfortunately can’t (for obvious reasons) fulfil both positions. I’ve therefore taken into consideration all votes and who I agree would better represent the two positions then taken a step back. In consideration of the remaining votes and by unanimous decision by the new President and Secretary, I’ve accepted the offer of another position in the committee.

Here is the 1st SAU-SA Club Board:

Shane (RBWARE) - President

Shane has previous club experience, public recognition, knowledge of the motorsport industry and the persona that the club needs if it is to get off the ground successfully.

Pete (SLED) - Vice President

Ruby (RubyRS4) - Secretary

This is a hard position to fill and a very important one. It’s a “no brainer” that without all the very hard work that Ruby has put into getting this thing off the ground (not to mention all the rubbish that he’s had to put up with), that he would be perfect for this role and to be honest, if he didn’t accept this position, we’d be scratching our heads right now.

Nene (Nene260RS) - Treasurer

Nene is a popular choice for this position. Working in a bank makes this a “no brainer” as well. Although Nene will have her hands full with a new arrival in a few months, Ruby and others have offered their full support behind her.

Cara (Miss34) - Events Coordinator

Cara was an outright vote getter for this position obviously by the fact that she has the runs on the board with her organizational skills and enthusiasm to make things happen.

Damo (Damo-R34) - Web Design/Editor

Damo has shown enthusiasm and has the resources that he can pull from to fulfil this position well. The fact that he has shown eagerness, a determination to be involved and maturity beyond his years, tells me that he’ll be an asset.

Congrats to all on the Committee ... and congrats to all who joined and who cast their votes. You're all still an important part of it, and without your support there would be no club. :D

Now that we have names of Committee members, we can now start getting forms in for CAMS affiliation, bank account, etc. I'll give Directors a call tomorrow and book a table/room for (say) 7.30pm next Friday (5/6/2009)? There will be much to discuss, and much for the club to offer its members.

Congrats to the chiefs voted in, and good luck with it all!!

Ruby, As we have our monthly meeting at the Directors, i would suggest to them that you will be looking to hold a meeting on, for example every 3rd tuesday of the month or something like that, book it in early and everyone in the club will know when the meetings are and have no excuses for missing it, Just a suggestion!

EDIT: oh and thats the room upstairs, ours is every 4th monday in the month, you might want to make yours every 4th Tuesday and they can leave the tables out!!

Thanks for the tip Deluxe. I'm planning our first pow-wow (not really an official monthly meet, but a meeting in any case to intro the team and talk about the to-dos), hopefully next Friday. But I'll contact the others first and find a suitable time for all. Then I'll run past them what you've mentioned and see how it fits in with all. One problem is my studies, which can fall on a Tuesday night. But I should be able to control that at enrolment time.

:)

    • 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.
    • 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.
