Oh and Mirkz you will prob have to learn how to pass the beep test to get into armed forces.... level 10 i think it is?..... not too hard to achieve but is a good workout of cardio to get to it.... i think some people sell the beep test tapes if you can't be bothered going to a gym....

First time ive ventured in here... makes us melbourne people seem like slackers.

congrats to everyone, especially TOMJ. Do you mind me asking how much it cost?? ;)

Nizmo, I was looking at your SAU Gallery and it looks like you could do well in the car show scene as a model :( !

I would have joined by now but I already have Free Gym account @ the QV1 where our firm gets the benefit... but I'll keep that in mind to visit you @ the Gym when I loose my free account :(

Does Zest have Sauna facilities like fitness first???

cheers

ps. my apology for getting out of topic

I think the gym is an evil place of torture, that beep test is so named becasue they beep out the swearing whilst you attempt it.

I live in mortal fear of the next visit to the gym. I congratulate myself for not becoming a human accordian under the leg press machine last week.

Well done to all others ... expecially Kyles getting into uni ..... i know you've worked very hard for that!!

LOL @ Dave ..... legpress .... that thing is evil .... sounds liek im giving birth everytime on it .... lots of gasping for breath, swearing and pain!

The last time I used the leg press was to press 560kg, at that level most of the sound is just random screams of terror (think shaggy from scooby do cartoon) as you lower the weight in anticipation of a leg snapping off and being crushed.

Geez rev thats quite impressive 560 kg is quite a nice weight... you taking it all the way down? or just more half press? how many reps is that on? if anything i think you should put that as an achievment for this thread :-)

Joe will call ya tomorrow. i am there everyday till 6:30 but will call ya tomorrow when see is good for ya.... could organise a week free pass as well so you can try it :-)

I go to full 90 degrees and do 6 to 8reps. That time round it was 8. my target is 600kg. I do 120kg on the decline?(opposite of incline) version of bench press which because I've only done bench press for 3 months I think is better self congradulation wise than the leg press. My target for that one is 200kg for the end of the year.

    • 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).
    • ECUtalk pages don't mention they support the ABS computer (consult port has more than one CAN), so you might just need a different scan tool. But, I would expect ABS is a different light to the brake warning/handbrake light, do you see an ABS light come on for a few seconds when you turn the key from ACC to IGN? But since you said: I'd have a look at the ABS sensors in the rear hubs to make sure they are not damaged, disconnected etc.
