Spotted a Gunmetal R32 heading onto the parkway last night. Gave it a good bootfull of revs to say hi to me and the missus as we were turning onto drakeford.

Also, spotted a White R33 this arvo coming out of Greenway heading towards Tuggers shopping centre via Athlon Drive.

Yeah, I have been a bit quiet, huh? Sorry 'bout that crew; it's been a very lean year for me. Will be rectifying the friendship side of Skyline ownership thing shortly. Due to the bank owning a LARGE chunk of both my soul and my ar*e, the GT-R will be a lot further away from getting spotte... : (

I know that feeling Jayce!!!!! also spotted a white 32 gtr in bruce sorry I didnt wave was a we bit to late, they had a skylinesaustralia sticker too.

Also yesterday a black slash gray 33gtr with a hot chick driving in bruce as well.

All while I have been finally driving the r33 again, and by the way it needs to sell lol...

WidebodyR32 on the way to work this morning... DAMN that thing is wide (and extremely tough) you should be proud! :laugh:

By the way, you didnt happen to notice when I took off into traffic, if the big puff of black smoke was from my exhaust or the loose road surface (or both)... I know mine is running rich but I didnt think it was that rich. :)

Is that the same Kate who had an R33 Gtst then a Soarer Turbo?

Why would she now be driving a Holden ute!? :D

yes, the same Kate....why the Holden ute?.....always had a thing for utes, fell for this one hook line and sinker, 350 chev motor sounds so hot and she goes pretty well too, ok, nowhere near as fast as a skyline but deceptively quick :)

Cheers Mate, (although mine has nothin on yours :D)

LOL - My missus was driving my car one night and I was riding shotgun when she went straight down a gutter without turning on an angle - when your car is exactly 100mm off the ground thats not good... The front bar CRUNCHED hard and I swore black and blue at her... She cried and I felt like an a**hole, but she's never done it since ;)

    • @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.
