Hey guilt-toy, i was wandering if youv ever been able to get rid off the clunk clunk clunk hard cut rev limmiter on the link g4's

and got them to sound like the full bangy ignition cut limiters on the older ecus.

We have been trying several diferent settings the last couple of nights with my mates rb25 but still doesnt seem to change it much, channging th control range, turning the advanced mode settings off and having it on plain 100% ignition cut and its still very much the same.

We ended up just setting it to -10* timming on limit to make it a bit bangyer but still not that happy.

This is the limiter we are trying to get rid off

Any help much appreciated!

so i been back in The Republic of Georgia (ex soviet union, thanks paul... lol)

its been great to be back to be honest... not really interested in doing much tuning since i been back, not that most of the people here could afford me anyway.. i been really really enjoying the weather!!! the cheap booze and the chicks here are sooo f**king sexy... fark... don't see girls like this in UAE unless you go to Dubai i guess....

I just finished tuning the car that i was paid for comming here to tune, its a long story but here goes....

Back when i was living here there was a really known car accident, 4 kids died in a BMW M3, they were racing a merc on one of the main roads, this main road has a big ass tree every 3 meters and the road is very unstable....

Inside the car 2 brother died inside the car, and another one or 2 guys.. not sure.. all under 20 years old.. their family are wealthy and the car was purchased by the parents...

anyway before the accident the kids came to our workshop and enquired about buying a Vi-pec ecu for their wrx... they wanted to buy one to tune their STI, with a 2.5 block...

I still remember the day when his father came to our little workshop and asked to buy the vi-pec to finish the build for his son as a memory... i swear to god i will never ever forget the look on his face... the look said a million words without anything having to be said.... just looking at him was hard... he purchased the ecu from us and by the time the car was ready i left the country and moved to the UAE.

Anyway after some time past the car was ready and they were keen to get the car going, but the tuner who was trying to start the car in Georgia could not even start the car, then they offered me to go over there.... to be honest it was hard to say to no to him, because of what happened also the weather in the UAE is really hot atm so i decided to come back for a week for a break...

weather here is awesome!!! i have had such a great time! do not regret it at all!!!

I looked at the STI the same day that i got here, after i put the vi-pec in the case i managed to start it in a few minutes and the guy was on his way to do a 3000km run in period (the engine builder insisted)

anyway i just tuned the car, as we were going down the road where the accident happend the father was driving me, and said "you know this is catatrophe here", i remember where it was and knew what he was talking about.... after comming back from tuning on low boost we were going past the same place and he just dropped it in third gear and boosted the shit outta it, gt35r custom forged ej25 in a sti on 6psi it was flying... kinda scared the shit outta me... but the more i think about it... it was his way to express to his sons that he finally finished their project and that meant alot to him....

we tuned it on .9 bar boost which was enough for the customer and everyone was happy.....

tomorrow morning i will fly back to the uae, so it will be back to the sauna and bad cheap bingali / pakistani / indian made food... its ok when i make my own food though....

so yeah... il post some pics up... since i been here a tuned a few cars but not many... one R32 GTR with a t04z with nistune and another r34 gtt with some custom gt35r with precision housing... the 32 had about 320kw at wheels on low boost and the 34 had 300kw at wheels on low boost....

just looking where they have put the Dyno Dynamics dyno, wow im suprised any dyno could work in these conditions, and this one working without no faults what so ever!!! even though its sucking sooo much dust and shit that it would be enough to kill anything????

anyways.... will try to post these pics soon...

ok... here are some pics of the new dyno setup.... its not a improvement from the old setup but its better then nothing at all!!

also here is some pics of a R33 with a adjustable bonnet scoop! it opens and closed with a setup that looks like a electric window winder... i got a video somewhere of it opening and closing... kinda spun me out.. kinda cool...

ohhhh and a stupid thing that a mate and i wrote about tuning his r34 while we were at a Irish pub, drinking mexican / american beer in ex soviet georgia.... lol...

:)

its been a while i know... but lots of shit is going on here... problem is that i cannot go into it right now.. but if all goes well.. i should be able to update very soon!

the 350z is going good, i don't care what anyone says.. the good ol rb30dett kicks the pants off the v6 =) ! loving that car, but the 32... i am really fallin in love with... i put a hydro handbrake on it and took it for a drift at a small karting track in Dubai, but the power steering rack shit itself when my mate was trying out the car... kinda sucks as its a LHD rack which i imported myself from the usa, its out of a 300zx US spec, the rack cost me $80 on ebay but shipping cost over $200, and now it f**ked :( might try and get it repaired....

here are some pics, and a youtube video of my mate driving the car.

and the r32 after a nice clean =) removed the GT-C's.. they are inside the house and will go back on in winter!

    • 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.
