serious!!??

everyone raves about him, thought they are suppose to be good?

He must have a warranty on his work?

I will tell you who doesnt rave about him....THIS GUY *points at self* and i wouldnt hold out hope of the warranty sticking either.

warrentee is sticking at this stage, even though i bought it 2.5yrs ago. it sat on the shelf as i had some personal issues that stoped me from moving forward with my 25-30build.

im not blaming anyone at this stage, i have been completly happy with the workshop that did my engine install ect. and i was on the phone to jim (for a long time) and i was explaining to him that i just want to know "why" this has happened and what caused it, his clutchs are the best, no doubts, ifs or buts. However mine failed, for all we know the front seal on the gearbox (which i hope was replaced) leaked and put oil on the clutch, in turn no matter what clutch i had in there would of been slipping.

I'll post photo's when i get it out of the car...

anyway, comment in my build thread, not in here lol :P

yeh got it, interesting read, without much of a conclusion....

mine will be out monday to see what happend, in my frustration of the clutch dieing i bought another car... lol. *facepalm*

hope to have it back in a week. ill be posting pics of the clutch ect on my build thread for you to see.

anyways, back on topic :whistling:

Don't think anyone went last week. I had to bail on it with uni assignments piling up. There is a southside meet this week which should have a fair few cars attending. I was thinking if anyone else is interested maybe we can go for a cruise to that meet? We can go out the back way avoid the majority of highways and enjoy some mountain roads then hit up the southside meet grab a feed and head home. Anyone else keen?

I don't think this has run for awhile. I've been busy with work and going up to the Southside meet every fortnight. Not sure if anyone has carried this on most likely it has just died. I'm moving to Brisbane next week so I won't be attending any more.

Yeah it died haha,

Have you finished your degree?

I just finished my last exams, hopefully if it all went well then I'll finally be graduating!

If I get the Goldy meet going again and you're still going to the southside meet then we should organise a meet halfway next year or something similar?

Hopefully CJ will have his 32 up and running again by then!

    • 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.
