Who here has a laptop with wi-fi? :P

All we need now is a generator and a evap cooler on wheels (or fans) :P

There was a bloke in the FS thread selling an evap cooler for $50. might see if we can grab that

i got laptop with wifi but more importantly Next G :)

-D

Edit - its nick who has the aircon, just messaged him about it. aircon consumes 210watts, which is bugger all, so I reckon that might even run off an AC inverter from a deep cycle battery

If I was more organised I would have brought it to Loxton along with my laptop. But Im sure you saw all the clothes on my back seat still drying so thats how organised I was lol

Thats the idea... we'd need power tho, thats the only problem (unless someone has a deep cycle battery with 12 hours of 400 watts load.

Aircon draws something like 250 watts (say 350 for initial load when powering on) and the router takes 18 watts, so 400watt inverter would be good. Otherwise it'd be an AC plug from somewhere or a small generator

my truck has 3 batteries and my father in law has a new 2.0hp Honda generator.......would have to break his arm to borrow it though.

ok, ill get SA investigations onto it, might use my 10% discount!

the 2hp genny would be infinately more preferable to the battery and inverter route, however it also comes down to how much juice it drinks and how loud it is (and how stinky the exhaust is)

Put me down for this one. Damo you have a PM mate

Cool, looks like we'll have a nice range :sick:

Next question - Mal has said that if we get there early we can get a good spot - how many of ya'll can make it at 7:30 ?

Yeap count me in on the early start

I'll be in for the early start Ben. Sent Damo a PM regarding details of car entered, but im sure most of you have some rough idea :banana:

spill the beans already :)

    • 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).
    • ECUtalk pages don't mention they support the ABS computer (consult port has more than one CAN), so you might just need a different scan tool. But, I would expect ABS is a different light to the brake warning/handbrake light, do you see an ABS light come on for a few seconds when you turn the key from ACC to IGN? But since you said: I'd have a look at the ABS sensors in the rear hubs to make sure they are not damaged, disconnected etc.
