Ok, think its about time i had the tune on my setup refreshed. currently running a Microtech LT12S with an established tune on it. to run a standard S1 RB25DET, T04E int gate turbo @ 16PSI, front facing plenum, FMIC, walbro pump etc etc...fairly modest setup. had it in the dyno recently, pulled 217kw which is pretty respectable. now im not necessarily after more power as such because im quite happy with the go it has. but more after a cleaner A/F mix and a few other little bits and pieces to make it a little less fuel hungry and a bit smoother at WOT.

main issue im having atm is at WOT it seems to be fueling up so much that its missing, which gets quite annoying after a while. yes im running aftermarket coils (splitfires) with the correctly gapped plugs (0.7?)that are only a few thousand k's old. only use BP Ultimate (98RON). is apparent when i service it that it is fueling up a lot. apart from that thats it, fuel consumption is not great but its not bad either (easily managing 500ks of highway driving with a bit of overtaking :O ). cold starts are fine, idle is a bit high (1450RPM) which id like to get put down to 950/1050RPM (which im sure is just a matter of fishing through the hand controller/software but havnt been game to try it without someone who knows what theyre doing)

im located in warrnambool which is about 3 hours drive west of melbourne, but willing to make a weekend trip up for it, wherever it may be. just after advice on any places that are reputable for tuning these particular ECUs.

advice much appreciated :)

book it in to a reputable shop, the microtech is a simple tool but it can work just fine in a setup like yours. many guys dont take advantage of some of the tuning capabilities as they are a little unorthodox.

Hi,

I would recommend Dalton Automotive, he is located in Geelong and is a Microtech specialist, I have a Microtech in my r33 and the tune on it is great. Ask for Chris, he is the owner and will be more then happy to talk to you. If you want more info you can check out his web site too. http://www.daltonautomotive.com/

      Block bump. $400. As above cyl 6 needs bore or sleeve.

      I would think making the argument that the travel is limited by a spring flexing against a spring perch as "the same method". Later on in the document they do state that the spring can't bind on full bump travel and cannot come loose in full rebound travel as well. (which is all very sensible). The laws are actually pretty sensible and reasonable. It's just that the people who enforce and check them don't actually read them or know them accurately. "Oh, coilovers? Instant fail mate. Don't even need to look at it." - Guy who will be instantly reported by me. There is probably merit to people who do get defected for height also get defected for the suspension in that state that allows it. I did never consider the people who are complaining about coilovers being picked on are also running around at 50mm off the floor.

      Ethanol Content Sensor - Always at 11%?

      I think given SAU's knowledge of E85 we can strongly conclude that 10% ethanol in almost any situation is entirely fine. Almost all of the myths against E85 were overblown, let alone E10.

      From your link See bold text, is this referring to damper settings, if so that may a issue for "some" inspectors, I cannot see aftermarket coilovers having the evidence that "must be available that its functional performance is equivalent to the original" Maybe just remove the adjustment knows and hope for the best???? Meh 5.2 Suspension travel In all instances, modifications to a vehicle’s suspension must ensure the integrity of the system and not compromise the ride quality. At least two thirds of the original suspension travel should be maintained in both directions (rebound (i.e. extension) and bump (i.e. compression)), and rebound must be limited by the same method used by the vehicle manufacturer or if this is not practicable due to the nature of the modification, an equivalent method. If an alternative method is used, evidence must be available that its functional performance is equivalent to the original.

      They actually don't - They adhere to VSB14 rules just like Victoria. The rules are against CABIN adjustable height, and it quite clearly states that the height has to be within parameters. I asked the VASS engineer to confirm this when I got my car engineered and they refused to engineer the coilovers because they didn't meet the requirements for requiring engineering. (mine are height adjustable.) People "Not wanting to bother" with "Actually reading/knowing/adhering to the rules" should result in fines and immediately losing the ability to issue blue slips and/or RWC's in Vic.
