I am sorry, the vain of your post, as I interpreted it was that you were making a statement, not asking a question.

The truth of it is, as Rob stated, most grey imports at the higher end of drag racing, both here and in Japan, use manual transmission. Manual is the norm, auto isnt.

Sorry if you thought my post was vain. Referring to my last post, I meant drag cars in general...not just the import drag cars.

How about I ask this question... are most of the Jap cars auto from factory?

Spotted: black R33 coupe - down at the Star Princess the other day when it was docked at Port Adelaide... number plate was WW-something..

also a white R33 coupe at Victor Harbour about a week ago!

was in Adelaide for a week and a bit, saw a few others, but they're the only ones i remember! :(

there is a yellow r33 goin around my area athelstone. Also a blue r32 with licence plate CHUNKY also in athelstone. Ill list more when i come to think of them.

yep seen chunky by the way im new here

my names mick i drive a mildely modafied r32 gtst it has full 3" momo zorst and a high flow garret t4 turbo but where i get all my power from its the momo gear knob :wassup:

is momo zorst a joke? wlcome to the forums. u gonna be at the cruz on sun?

no mate it has stamped on the muffler and the pipping (momo corse)

it has a real sweet 5" tip thats rolled in it was on the car when i baught it must have cost the guy who put it on a pretty penny i didnt know momo made exaughst either the gear knob was a joke though yeh i wouldnt minde comin to join in wid your cruze ill se what happens i think i have my daughter this weekend and a nother hard factor is that im from murray bridge but yeh ide love to come and catch uplet me know where you are all leaving from and ill see what i can do :D

    • @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.
    • 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.
