Nick is confirming location yeah?

Time wise, 3 or 4 suit people? gives us a bit of light. Are we shooting one or 2 cars?

Sidd, give us an update with as much details as you've got. maybe we'll be able to fill in the blanks as a team :blink:

Ok so 14th nov (sunday) is the shoot. There will be two models. Thats all I know lol. I need to tell the model the location and time. So someone please tell me :blink:

I dont want to be driving around for an hour on the day trying to find spots.

Car wise you guys decide. I think 2 cars will be more than enough.

Just had a look on Maps at homebush to try and pick a spot to meet and shoot. It just highlighted how little I know the area :blink:

Nick, have you had a look yet? Botanical gardens might be a good place to start, pending vehicle access.

Hey guys I'll most probly come down with my r33 GTS-T.

I'm new to the forum so might be a good chance to meet other skyline owners.

You can see a pic of my car as my display picture, so let me know if it's aiite for the shoot

OK, Matt and I just went for a quick look around Homebush and out the back of Rose Hill/Camelia. We found a few spots that might work for both the cars and the models, but it will depend on access available for the cars (I'll make some calls tomorrow). Moving the models around shouldn't be too much of an issue, and it will depend more on how their chosen outfits suit the locations.

I'll post some quick photos shortly.

You don't really need pics. We just found a few locations that might be fun for the the model(s), and a car or two.

Meeting point = Novatel Homebusy bay, which is across the road from the Olypmic Park Train station.

Meeting time = 3.30 Sharp. We'll head to the first location at 4. (or earlier if every one is ready)

there's plenty of parking near by.

Sidd, what are the girls going to be wearing? like what style of clothing did you mention?

Car wise, Sean has his white 34 gtr v-spec coming. Sidd, you're always banging on about getting some good shots of your ride. Clean it, that's our new 2nd car for the day :P

Matt - DONE AND DONE!!! Will pass one those details to the models. They will be wearing knee height dress. I just told them to wear something elegant and sexy!! hahha.. Eitherway it will be a great learning experience for everyone. If we have a successful shoot then we can start doing lots of other creative shoots etc.

No problems will clean my car inside and out ;) Looking forward to sunday!!!

So whos coming??

KORY - dont be soft!! I will give you 10 bucks in petrol money. lol

    • @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.
