I suppose when you have an R35 you have better things to do than be on a forum :P haha. Thanks for the reply. I kinda want to check one out in person. Might just ask the guy if I can have a look inside though I imagine he will say no because he thinks im some random sticky handed kid haha.

from my perspective ( work on a few of them.) they are quite a car and QUITE FAST. brakes are equally awesome. that said the car is too smart for itself.

all of the guys I have dealt with are older people (45+ ) that have better things to do than sit on the net. both of the guys in melbourne I have done are medical people and didnt know what NAGTROC or SAU was.

I kinda have to agree with the car being too smart for itself, give it another 15 years and cars will probably have too much electronics to even really work on yourself without a degree in electrical engineering haha.

Chris is your 34 blue? I remember seeing a blue 34 gtr heading north along gympie road from the city quite a while ago.

EDIT: Chris I just checked out your companies website, are you any good with soldering? The instrument cluster in my soarer needs 2-3 capacitiers replaced and I'm definately nothing flash at soldering not to mention I've never desoldered before. If you don't do this sort of work do you know of anyone In Brisbane north side that has reasonable prices? I can supply parts if needed as it will probably be a bit easier that way.

Hi Orphan

Yes I am a member . This site has been the most informative for getting info on my new car. I had a GTR33 for 13 yrs before I upgraded to this beauty. And it is going to get quicker just as soon as I decide to ditch my wty. Good coffee and good cars go together.

Regards

Mark.

Hey,

I was just wondering if the owner of a red R35 who has been at Campos Cafe the last two weekends is a member on here? Car looks great in red, glad you gave it some when you left, made my day haha.

I didn't see it, too busy smashing into my Campos fryup last weekend :) Funny though as I do see you (Mark) driving near my place a fair bit, in the 'vale

      @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.
