We are on holidays :D

Next committee meeting isnt for a couple of weeks yet. I like to give committee members a few weeks break - they do work pretty hard :P

There will be one - always is one... just takes a few weeks for everyone to wind up into swing again.

Plus elections are in Feb (more info to follow in coming weeks) :)

lol i'll give you some pics that i might take this yr. as much work as you'll ever get out of me :) in all seriousness though, how come no calendar. i woulda thought that since last yr's template was available, and looked the goods, its just a matter of substituting new pics.

edit: i do realise that since its already 2010, it may be too late to collect pics and get it made in time.

Yep :)

It was tabled, there was a volunteer to get it done, sadly they ran outta time before we had time to replan - that's how it goes sometimes unfortunately.

Its not a set template either, gotta change it up each year or it'd be rather, bland if you know what i mean.

Printing is the easy part, everything else doesn't change a lot.

Damn the SAU 09 calender had pride of place in our kitchen....no SAU 2010 calender means it'll prob be replaced with some BS anne geddes one or some sh1t :)

Oh well it happens, but if you can see that times running short post a thread asking for help as the committee have done for other things...and yes I am aware of how many responses you get for the requests for help but you never know.

We didn't see time was going to run short - late notice and all :)

So ye, if we had've known, might have been possible. Unfortunately i can't micro-manage every little task :rofl:

And ye, responses for volunteers/committee helped etc is always met with... zero. Sometimes one. Usually zero.

Hardly enough people putting thier hands up out of nearly 400 people. Means those who are dedicated, really have to put in serious hours... heavens help the club if those people stop...

I really would like to see people step up in 2010 and get onto the voting/nominations etc in a couple weeks when posted.

All well and good to say you are keen, doing it is another i've found!

Perhaps if there is enough interest in making the club calendar an annual thing - then it should be included as a responsibility of one of the sub-committee members to coordinate. This will ensure at least one person will be on to it, instead of everyone thinking it's someone else doing it. I call it management delegation :rofl:

There was someone who said they would do it - regardless of it being "listed" or not - if you are doing it, you are doing, that is how i run my ship :rofl:

It's my fault for not chasing it up, but when S'n'S, Gala Ball (then throw in other members with DECA) etc etc required more time than i thought, somethings get forgotten.

Sometimes in a group of volunteers, such outcomes are unavoidable.

But everyone reading this going "bummer" - i challenge you to come onboard in 2010 and see how much work is involved.

We ALWAYS need dedicated & committed people to give us a hand. Never a time when we don't these days.

Well Ash, if you guys needs someone to design a calendar, I'm more than happy to donate my time for it :D

As a matter of fact, I'm more than happy to help SAU with ANY design work, that needs done. Just lemme know :P

      RB25DE NEO with Haltech ECU

      By Murray_Calavera · Posted

      You won't need to do that if your happy to learn to tune it yourself. You 100% do not need to do that. It is not part of the learning process. It's not like driving on track and 'finding the limit by stepping over the limit'. You should not ever accidently blow up an engine and you should have setup the ECU's engine protection to save you from yourself while you are learning anyway. Plenty of us have tuned their own cars, myself included. We still come here for advice/guidance/new ideas etc.  What have you been doing so far to learn how to tune?

      Put the ECU's MAP line in your mouth. Blow as hard as you can. You should be able to see about 10 kPa, maybe 15 kPa positive pressure. Suck on it. You should be able to generate a decent vacuum to about the same level also. Note that this is only ~2 psi either way. If the MAP is reading -5 psi all the time, ignition on, engine running or not, driving around or not, then it is severely f**ked. Also, you SHOULD NOT BE DRIVING IT WITHOUT A LOAD REFERENCE. You will break the engine. Badly.

      Could be correct. Meter might be that far out. Compare against a known 5 ohm 1% resistor.

      @Murray_Calavera  If I were an expert I wouldn't be in here looking for assistance.  I am extremely computer literate, have above average understanding on how things should be working and how they should tie together.  If I need to go to a professional tuner so be it, but I'd much rather learn and do things myself even if it means looking for some guidance along the way and blowing up a few engines. @GTSBoy  I was hoping it would be as simple as a large vacuum leak somewhere but I'm unable to find anything, all lines seem to be well capped or going where they need to be, and when removed there is vacuum felt on the tube.  It would be odd for the Haltech built in MAP to be faulty, the GTT tune I imported had it enabled from the start, I incorrectly assumed it was reading a signal from the stock MAP, but that doesn't exist.  After running a vacuum hose to the ECU the signal doesn't change more than 0.2 in either direction.   I'll probably upload a video of my settings tomorrow, as it stands I'm able to daily drive, but getting stuttering when giving it gas from idle, so pulling away from lights is a slow process of revving it up and feathering the clutch until its moving, then it will accelerate fine.  It sounds like I need to get to the bottom of the manifold pressure issue, but the ignition timing section is most intimidating to me and will probably let a pro do that part.  Tomorrow I'll try a different vacuum line to T off of, with any luck I selected one that was already bypassed during the DBW swap.  (edit: I went out and did it right now, the line I had chosen did appear to have no vacuum on it, it used to go to the front of the intake, I've now completely blocked that one off at the bracket that holds several vacuum lines by the firewall.  I T'd into the vacuum line that goes from that bracket to the vacuum pump at the front of the car, but no change in the MAP readings).  Using the new vacuum line that has obvious vacuum on the hose, im still only getting readings between -6.0 and -5.2.  I'm wondering why the ECU was detecting -5.3 when nothing was connected to the MAP nipple and ECU MAP selected as the source. @feartherb26  I do have +T in the works but wanted to wait until Spring to start with that swap since this is my good winter AWD vehicle.  When removing the butterfly, did it leave a bunch of holes in the manifold that you needed to plug?  I thought about removing it but assumed it would be a mess.   I notice no difference when capping the vacuum line to it or letting it do its thing.  This whole thing has convinced me to just get a forward facing manifold when the time comes though.

      Update: tested my spark plugs that are supposed to be 5ohms with a 10% deviation and one gave me a 0 ohms reading and the rest were 3.9ohm<, so one bad and the others on their way out.
