If you only find deer, you're doing good! Lol. Of a night it can be a terribly dangerous road!

My missus lives right near it was like "there's no deer in there" until we went past 20 of them... Lol, I've come across lots of animals in there, which is expected being a national park...

Once went through there at night and came across a couple of *deer* standing in the middle of the road. :banana: Was foggy too, crazy stuff.

RNP definitely requires keeping eyes peeled and wits about, even more than usual.

... thanks gents for the headsup ... fingers crossed im not working ... cheers malcolm :D

i might be up for this, looking for an excuse to get out of something else :bunny:

^^^ You pinched my excuse :P

Have to see what God_speed is doing tho' because he had an accident last night at about 6 o'clock.

Got rear-ended - by a deer :)

...a Cayenne deer :laugh:

*Correction:- Cayman deer!

I hope it was in the daily not the R!!

Will txt him in the morning to see if he is ok..

Thanks David, you're a gentleman.

From what I can gather, it was like...

Three green bottles hanging on the wall: three green bottles hanging on the wall: and if one green bottle should accidentally fall; there'll be two green bottles hanging on the wall!

Well the Porsche driver ran up the third green bottle, and Matt's GT-R was the last green bottle at the front of a queue. One of the green bottles was a Beemer too I think. Damage to the GT-R is repairable. #2 green bottle hit him mainly in the left rear part of the bar + collecting the Fujitsubo tip > pushed the bar out to the right a little. The bar is repairable too; but if a new one can be sourced and keep the current one, that'd be better still. Dunno about the reo/beaver panel.

Yeah it was a Porsche Gayman actually.

Fortunately it was more like a love-tap to the GTR by the time the impact reached my car. I have no idea what he was doing as he hit the VT commodore with a fair bit of force. 6 o clock Thursday arvo, peak hour, stop start traffic. At least I'd left decent space to the car in front of me so the buck stopped with me so to speak.

Second time I had taken the car out in about 3 weeks.

I will join for a drive and lunch.

I endorse the rules as spelled out earlier in this post. If you can't control or behave yourself please stay at home. You will only give all of us a bad rep.

Please help to make this an enjoyable day and not one we would rather forget..

    • 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.
