Hi everybody!

http://www.actmotorclubs.org.au/go/shannons-wheels-2008

Wheels is only a month away and we aren't organised yet. Last year we had an awesome turn out and even had a 35 GTR!

Now I know it is a big ask, but it would be great if we could actually drive in together in order. It makes life so much easier (ask John who had to move his car about 11ty billion times) and you only need to get up a bit earlier.

Can anyone who is coming be at the boat ramp by 7.30 to give us some time to organise and leave by 8am sharp!

Don't forget plenty of water and sunscreen!

Hey Mr Federal, do you have a tent we could borrow?

I have emailed the organisers to let them know we are coming, so don't let the side down!

Can everyone who is coming put their name and model (car, not the one you like the most):

1- Donnan 32 GTR

im going to assume that its the boat ramp where we meet on friday nights.. and yes for all of those people who have not been there during the day there is a boat ramp off to the left when you drive towards where we meet (near the restaurant)

Stupid question, but do we need to fill out and submit the entry form? I'm going with yes, but I'm getting the impression we might not?

On second assessment, the entry form is dated 2009....question still remains, though the form itself is invalid lol

After some light skim reading on the site, I'm still not sure what this actually is.. What day is it being held on? And how much time will it take up in total? Do our cars have to be in pristine condition or is a mangled front bar and a dirty engine bay acceptable? Sounds like it might be worth taking a day off work for.

It is a colection of car "clubs" that put on a free stactic car show for Canberra. It takes from when you turn up to when you leave, normally people leave around 2pm but earlier is OK. It does not matter the condition of the car, however most owners take some pride in washing the car for the day. You can keep the bonnet down.

It's worth going if only once.

I can never be bothered to do all the cleaning stuff on my own. Someone want to meet up the day before and double team our cars? I used to detail cars so I'm pretty handy with it. Don't care if it's just a wash, vacuum and polish or a full rejuv of plastics, shampooing of carpets and detailing of engine bay. Any takers?

I would say yes I'm keen, but oh god after doing it previously, and the condition of my paint....no thanks lol....I'd rather pay through the teeth for it to be done while I wander around Westfield belco for a few hours :D

    • 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.
    • 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).
