We'll be going, might try to get a car on the SAU stand this year, probably the silver GTR if I can get nicer wheels to fit over these brakes - Will take the BSM GTR and open wheeler to the SDMA stand.

Unless its p!ssing down rain of course, then I think I will stay at home... I know Im slack.

F1 is on in the afternoon, so unless you're in Melbourne to see it live, you can still come to wheels and watch the F1 in the afternoon :woot:

I think John has the banner... not sure who owned the tent from last time (might have been John as well?)... so I guess if he's going, then the answer is yes.

Otherwise someone else might want to grab the banner, find a tent, and take charge :)

So are we any closer to having a final count?

Do we have to do anything in the way of registering beforehand - or is there just a designated area in the park to turn up to?

Also is it in the bit between finance and treasury or is it the park area between the national library and the lake?

It's directly in front of Old Parliament House... that whole area and off to the sides as well.

There's a designated area for Jap crap :P

And yes, I'm pretty sure we have told them we were coming in previous years.

Wow I totally forgot about it until my father called me and asked where I was.

Seems like no one has turned up anyway, bad day for it this year. No one asked for the banner or the tent (yes I have both and they are both club property)

Post up some picks if anyone goes. Otherwise I'll see everyone at the dyno day with hopefully working AFM's.

I took a couple of other photos as well. I was trying to get some photos of the Aston Martin's but it was crowded and people kept walking infornt of them. By the way, there is another thread with photos taken by Nathan.

serious? the ridiculous idle, cranck evac line, huge 80+mm turbo, 6 point roll cage etc wont give it away before they even bother opening the boot.

PS the guys with john there are firey's

No thats why I put the smile on it, however technically all those things can be enginered and pass EPA (with a lot of work). NOS is always instant fail.

Wasn't sure about the one in light blue :P

      RB25DE NEO with Haltech ECU

      If you take the top half of the intake off you can unbolt the flap off the shaft and leave the shaft in there blocking the hole. Then you can remove the little vacuum canister off from under the manifold and get a spare vacuum line to run to the ECU. I can take some photos of it later. Probably best to get the vacuum source to the ECU sorted first though. Mine all worked mint with the base map from the GTT an I've pretty much let the closed loop sort the fueling and took 1 degree out of the whole timing map.

      This IS something you also have to configure in Haltech (or at least I did in the past when going from onboard-to-ECU map sensor and an external MAP sensor in haltech land).

      I'm hoping it's something as simple as the ECU is looking for an external MAP sensor, but he is trying to use the onboard MAP sensor.

      You won't need to do that if your happy to learn to tune it yourself. You 100% do not need to do that. It is not part of the learning process. It's not like driving on track and 'finding the limit by stepping over the limit'. You should not ever accidently blow up an engine and you should have setup the ECU's engine protection to save you from yourself while you are learning anyway. Plenty of us have tuned their own cars, myself included. We still come here for advice/guidance/new ideas etc.  What have you been doing so far to learn how to tune?

      Put the ECU's MAP line in your mouth. Blow as hard as you can. You should be able to see about 10 kPa, maybe 15 kPa positive pressure. Suck on it. You should be able to generate a decent vacuum to about the same level also. Note that this is only ~2 psi either way. If the MAP is reading -5 psi all the time, ignition on, engine running or not, driving around or not, then it is severely f**ked. Also, you SHOULD NOT BE DRIVING IT WITHOUT A LOAD REFERENCE. You will break the engine. Badly.
