hi guys, its been ages since i posted much about the car and im sorry, i just havnt had anytime lately to do much. and i put a lil hold on the project due to some other shit going on with work commitments.

so the vs-kf have sold and ive bought a set of 18inch te37's going on, there bronze so ill be getting them sprayed black and wrapping them in a set of nice sticky tyres.

carbon bonnet is on the car it just needs some slight massaging to get the perfect fir, i have bonnet pins going in as well.

ive sold my brides and im tossing up with installing the sparco fixed backs i have at home or going a set of r34 gtr seat, im leaning more towards the gtr seats because i like them more.

i was at sabaddins 2 weeks ago just to hi to the boys and i checked out some awesome parts that were there including

nitto pistons

rods (i cant remember the brand lol but they were awesome)

ati 1000hp balancer

the block and head were sitting there just kicking it lol and we r just waiting for some parts to come in for the head then all off to the machinists.

once again i am question turbo choice as i think the 42 will be too big for the street and i dun wanna go twins so soon ill be doing my head in again over the turbo choice but that is still a lil while away.

ill try to get pics up but i dont have a camera and my bro moved out a lil while ago so ill maybe have to go buy one

there are a few other carbon parts that have arrived but i havnt had the time to even unwrap them yet, but hopefully soon ill get to it.

cheers

lol i got my rays stickers for $12 for a set of four.... stickers are stickers who gives a F(*& if there "GENUINE" haha

i dont put fake shit on my car, the few pieces that were have now been replaced with either the oe parts or hi quality aftermarket stuff, but each to there own i guess.

does rays have its own paint brand now does it buddy.

i painted them coz they were 2 different colors and quite frankly i dont think i need to justify my self.

clutch there not shiny, the color is the lambrghini satin black they r matt but the photo flash makes them look shiny

getting the tyres fitted tomorrow morning at tyre power in hawthorn then when i get home fit them on the beast and start it for the first time in 4 months hahaha

    • 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).
