Well here is an update,

It looks like we will be meeting at probably 6c and either Grey Gum or macca's at windsor.

I'm thinking of getting away about 9am from windsor so as to get a full day for a nice relaxing cruise.

Hopefully we should be back sometime around 5:30 - 6pm. (have to finalise these details though)

Numbers are good so far (see above) and more are welcome.

Cheers,

Dan.

If I remember correctly - which I do, this road will, after much interesting scenery, (Straights, sweepers, U-bends, very little traffic) will lead us to the Hunter Valley - which, if I remember correctly - which I do, is a real challenge for those who may enjoy fermented grape juice. I ponder - is it a more efficient use of PULP to kill two birds, so to speak, and make an arrangement for those with a liking for the grape juice to sample some of the same whilst in the region.

Think of the good we can do for the environment!!!!

Wadda ya reckon - fatz - dan - paul - dean???

I'm sure Kel would like to be the designated driver on the way home, right????

good call, i wonder what bec is doing that day... :D :confused:

:headbang:

Putty rd -> Hunter valley = fun, twisty, windey road. :crazy:

Hunter Valley = drinking wine. :alcoholic

Freeway -> Sydney = boring, full of cops drive. :innocent:

God, I hope the girls don't read this thread and find out our evil plans:devil1:

FREEWAY!!! What!! Have they put in a freeway from the north???

I only remember the OP Highway Dunk, but I guess if you are passenger it dosen't really matter. :D:D

Gotta work Dan, sorry. Sounds like it'll be a good turnout :)

YOU SUCK!! :talk2hand :hellpisd:

you could still bring me back something from o/sea's tho. :) :headbang: :fro:

:eek:

now who hijacked my thread... let me see... if I catch the bas... (sees who it is and gets up from computer, walks into other room where dad is)... well now that that is sorted out... it appears that dad is good at reasoning!!!

Well wine tasting as well...this will be a long day... and I have to be at work at 5:15 the next morning!

Well, lets have a show of hands on who would like to possibly do a wine tasting lunch as well. Maybe we might have to split into non tasters and tasters for the return journey.

If we are going to go it will take a bit more research as to where we can park all these cars. Dad and I will look into it and see... but it could be possible... even still getting back pretty early (6:00-6:30pm) to windsor.

Has anyone heard from oz recently??? his knowledge of this area would be invaluable... if anyone sees/talks to him send him here for his advice!

And loz we may be able to push the start time back a bit... maybe half an hour... but it will take us all day to do the cruise! and it IS worth while coming... anyone who has been before will tell you that... and everyone that is coming along for the first time will tell you that on the night of Sunday the 3rd of November after they get back!!!

did I miss anything???

Duncan and Kel, Fatz, does this mean that you'll be along? Good to have you as always Xrsist.

Red, Prank is right...

YOU SUCK...

maybe next time mate.

Cheers,

Dan.

    • @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. @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.
    • 9" wheels are a little too wide for a RWD 32. They can fit. People have put R33 GTR wheels on 32s for years and years. But they are a very tight squeeze. This has been known for about 30 years. As I said - there is no difference between a 17 and an 18 in terms of what will fit. The rolling diameter needs to stay about the same as stock - not very much larger. If you increase that, you will start to have problems. If you increae rolling diamater at the same time as yo increase width, you will have problems earlier. as 9" wheels are pushing the boundaries already, you would need to be careful with tyre choice. I would put 8.5s on the front of mine, but would expect problems with 9s.
    • post up screen shots of your injector tables
    • Diagnostic flow for a code 21 says check signal at the ECU pins, on a voltmeter of some kind it should read 0.1V at idle, 0.12V cranking, 0.15-0.25V at 2000 rpm. Check each coil such that +1, -3 is infinite or very high resistance, -3, +2 should do the same. (-1, +3), (+3, -2), (+1, -2), and (-1, +2) should all be somewhere between 0 ohms and high resistance. If you trace the path from the coil pin all the way back to the ECU in the diagram the resistance you measure at the coil vs connected to the harness should be pretty much the same.
