Hey guys and gals,

Very bad news... I was informed last night by a friend that lives at windsor that the putty rd is closed due to fires. NOT HAPPY JAN.

Fortunately for us, Richmond windsor just happens to be the meeting place of 3 great roads. So I have devised an alternative cruise if the putty is still closed come sunday.

Meet as planned at windsor macca's.

Head up the Bells line of road to Lithgow.

Across past lake lyle to Taranar pub for lunch.

Head back down through oberon area to jenolan caves road and out to the GWH,

Travel along this until we get to Katoomba and cruise along cliff drive.

Back on the GWH and to the Grand view hotel for a refereshment and then off home... should see us arrive back at roughly the same time or perhaps a little earlier.

Shit I hope that the putty is open though... heaps less traffic, lot nicer road. HEAPS easier to keep everyone from getting lost.

Am working on some alternate maps as I type this.

We will make a descision on Sunday morning.

My mobile if anyone needs to contact me is 0414 940 938.

Cheers,

Dan.

Just checking up on the net for bushfire updates and found the following at http://www.bushfire.nsw.gov.au/media/Mores.asp?Id=395

"CHAPMAN’S (BOGGY SWAMP) – SINGLETON

This fire has also taken significant runs today. It is now across the Putty Road near the Half Way house, into area burnt in November 2001. Crews are currently deployed protecting properties in the Weeney creek area. The western area of the fire will burn into an old fire of November 2001. Aerial resources have been deployed to assist in management of the fire."

It doesn't say anything about the road being open or closed, but hopefully the fire will have burnt out or at least be controlled by Sunday.

Come on you bushies, I have every confidence in your ability to control this fire!

Fingers crossed.

Great News,

The Putty is back open... was reopened yesterday at about lunchtime and is still open now.

Lets all hope that it stays open now untill we go.

See you all at macca's for bacon and egg mcmuffs tomorrow.

Cheers,

Dan.

Silver,

There is NOT going to be a meet at M4 macca's.

Only macca's at windsor and Homebush 6c... and the Terry Hills Burger king @ 7am, no M4 meet.

Hope this isn't too late.

Oh shit I just remembered. There is a big push bike ride between sydney and wollongong, may cause traffic problems.

Call me on 0414 940 938 if you have any problems.

Cheers,

Dan.

Dan, I just had a last minute roster change so there's now a chance (about 1%) that I'll be there. I'll call if I'm coming.:uhh:

Silver and Bonkers, if I bring the X-Trail we'll have the mall-wheel-drive segment sewn up! :)

    • 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.
    • 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.
