Not yet was waiting to see WHO WHAT was coming ,

want a BBQ as allway`s ,& just nice spot to chat & enjoy day out,i will have a drive & find a good route so we can enjoy stagea at best LOL,& somewhere with BBQ arear ,

I'm keen for a meet and BBQ sometime over the next two weekends but would most probably skip a long distance run. Just got to put a bumper back on to be presentable.

Its impossible to plan things so lets be spontaneous and say long weekend monday?

Hi, Well you may be only one show up,

I put this up to GIVE are FELLOW STAGEA OWNER`S TIME TO COME OUT & PLAN,as there all VERY SHY & DON`T GET OUT VERY OFTEN ;) ,this will be in 3/4/5 week`s time as most need to be given LOT`S OF TIME TO GET THERE SHIT TOGETHER :D;) ,

So & I need to LOOK AT WHERE we will go ,

As Bubba said i like long drive`s & would like to go SOUTHWEST & make a DAY of it,but many will say it`s to FAR :woot:;) ,

So i will look at a METRO outing only for lightweight`s ,

I will Then LOOK at SOUTHWEST & may be 600 to 700kms ,Have chat with boy`s down that way that may want to meet up & enjoy a run about there way.

So GOOD LUCK ,

Cheer`s Chuckie.

Don't get me wrong I love driving the thing but 600-700 in a day gees that is pretty long (that said it would be way better than a metro cruise they work the pole) see what happens migh be keen, but I know I'd be by myself, none of my mates would be keen to ride along.

ill have to dust the cobwebs off mine and give it a run as it hasnt moved in months, might suss out a decent tune if i get off my arse, and have it running at full potential. No long cruises i prefer to chat than drive myself, and long weekend = double demerits and any bbq areas are gonna be packed too.

600km in a day is nothing.. I did Albany and back in the wagon, same day :thumbsup:

I'd be more than happy to do a day trip to Albany again, the roads are quite nice and if we left at say 8am, that would leave enough time for a nice lunch and then on the road to get back to Perth before dark.

I like long drives, but Brad, remember our last hills run together? I'd like to do it again but minus the stone chip >_<

I am down like James Brown for this. Its been too long since y'all have feared Teh Fury :thumbsup:

Only thing is, this weekend is out for me (getting new CV's and stuff sorted out) and I am off OS at the start of July for 2 weeks, so if any long trips could be postponed until after then, I would be on that like a fat kid on a cupcake.

I would also suggest maybe a trip to somewhere more interesting than Albany? Nice place to visit, but the drive isnt very interesting unless you take the long way down through the Stirling Ranges.

I can heartily recommend Bridgetown/Nannup area, with maybe a side trip to Donnelly River (because the road is freaking awesome) and that way we could swing through Bunbury to pick up the SW guys.

    • @Haggerty this is your red flag. In MAP based ECU's the Manifold pressure X RPM calculation is how the engine knows it is actually...running/going through ANY load. You are confusing the term 'base map' with your base VE/Fuel table. When most people say 'base map' they mean the stock entire tune shipped with the ECU, hopefully aimed at a specific car/setup to use as a base for beginning to tune your specific car. Haltech has a lot of documentation (or at least they used to, I expect it to be better now). Read it voraciously.
    • I saw you mention this earlier and it raised a red flag, but I couldn't believe it was real. Yes, the vacuum signal should vary. It is the one and only load signal from the engine to the ECU, and it MUST vary. It is either not connected or is badly f**ked up in some way.
    • @Haggerty you still haven't answered my question.  Many things you are saying do not make sense for someone who can tune, yet I would not expect someone who cannot tune to be playing with the things in the ECU that you are.  This process would be a lot quicker to figure out if we can remove user error from the equation. 
    • If as it's stalling, the fuel pressure rises, it's saying there's less vacuum in the intake manifold. This is pretty typical of an engine that is slowing down.   While typically is agree it sounds fuel related, it really sounds fuel/air mixture related. Since the whole system has been refurbished, including injectors, pump, etc, it's likely we've altered how well the system is delivering fuel. If someone before you has messed with the IACV because it needed fiddling with as the fuel system was dieing out, we need to readjust it back. Getting things back to factory spec everywhere, is what's going to help the entire system. So if it idles at 400rpm with no IACV, that needs raising. Getting factory air flow back to normal will help us get everything back in spec, and likely help chase down any other issues. Back on IACV, if the base idle (no IACV plugged in) is too far out, it's a lot harder for the ECU to control idle. The IACV duty cycle causes non linear variations in reality. When I've tuned the idle valves in the past, you need to keep it in a relatively narrow window on aftermarket ecus to stop them doing wild dances. It also means if your base idle is too low, the valve needs to open too much, and then the smallest % change ends up being a huge variation.
    • 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.
