Got word to-day from Terry Ashwood that he'll be coming down from Qld for our R32 Event - as guest and dignitary.

He'll be signing the Award Certificates. :D

Black_Widow ie Nick, our fellow Organiser, has been able to secure some Car-care gifts. Many, many thanks to Meguiars for their generosity. :) Perhaps, you can tell us more about your efforts Nick?

Perhaps some of you who have already purchased tickets would like to organise groups? :D Then you can enter the cinema as a group?

Sorry that we can't discount - but then you understand why - the charity needs your money.

At least the cinema has been paid for now.

Many thanks for this, go to our sponsors Top Secret Imports and Just Jap :D

Reminder: for those who have said they're "IN" please be aware you have to pay for a ticket -- so please contact Terry about that

I presume that was meant for me... I just checked my mail and the email I sent bounced. It has been re-sent now. Can you please make sure that it comes through and if not shoot me a PM or something so I dont miss out???

Thanks - Thomas.

Yes Thomas, this last E-mail has come through this morning.

Tickets are being sent to you to-day.

Look forward to seeing 2 of you on the big day. :)

We're glad that we organisers were talked out of hiring Cinema #2 by Top Secret Imports.

It had 128 seats, and now, 100 seats have been taken already.

If you haven't purchased your cinema tickets yet, we would press the point that you buy them soon. Only $15 per ticket. :)

We now have more than 2x visitors from each of Country NSW, South Australia, Aust. Capital Territory, Queensland and now, Victoria ! ! !

Most States/Territories are now represented ! ! !

Those coming from afar can contact GTRKat for details on where to stay that's close by and have your precious cars in a locked secure compound.

We organisers will thank that establishment by name in the wrapup ! ! !

We've gone National ! ! ! ;)

You won't get your cars into the secure carpark at Lilianfels if thats where they are being suggested to stay...

No that's not the place Ben. ;)

We have a place under wraps & it's suitable for low lip cars.

Even the establishment's manager is coming with his R33 GT-R.

And we'll reveal the establishment in our 'Thank You's after the Event.

Someone on the forum asked me if this Event was exclusively for Skylines.

The answer is emphatically NO.

All SAUers (+ their partners/family/friends) are welcome to this fantastic occasion!

The beneficiaries will be SAU & The Children's Hospital Westmead!

It's quite remarkable to see from 2-6 tix going to most Postcodes. Seems like a family day is in order! ;)

...and our organisers are chuffed!

Are there many servo's with 98 if your heading down from brisbane just asking because my car really chews the juice ?

Should be fine, so long as you stay on the Pacific (rather than N. England).

We'd love some more Queenslanders! :(

And Jez...

A convoy is coming up from Canberra.

You might as well organise one too. :mad:

Cant believe i have totally missed this tread. i shall be making payment shortly.

I have also just finished my second 1:10 Scale rc shell of the Winfield GTR which i shall sit on my parcel shelf.

Terry if you guys are setting up a display or something at the cinema id be more than happy to donate it for the day.

Last one i made Terry Ashfield bought off me at the show and shine last year. maybe he will want this one too.

I recall Terry buying that off you... - and some of us commented that you undercharged him... LOL

I think that anything that'll help this event's atmosphere will be good John. We're thinking about an SAU table atm.

Just Jap & Top Secret Imports will have their displays just inside & outside the front doors.

When you buy your tix, let me know in the e-mail what you have in mind > I'll put it to the others. Many thanks for your kind gesture! :thumbsup:

I dont think you'd want to do that... last time I left a plastic scale model car on the parcel shelf it warped and partially melted due to the sun!

woOhOO!! can't wait :thumbsup: by the way, any speed/red light/safety cameras we need to aware people of?

You should be right with the five-0.. of all weekends thats the Bathurst 1000... sorry bout cant make that 1.. have fun though

    • 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.
    • 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.
