Good start to what I hope is a long running series! I hate to be the first person to say something negative, but one thing that annoys me is when a video has music playing instead of the sound of the cars, as with the footage of us leaving BP. Lots of videos do it, including the Deca footage Rekin posted, personally I would much prefer to listen to the cars.

Of course with this being a first episode with footage you took before you suggested the idea of SAU Vic TV, I do not know if this is indicative of what you have planned for future episodes.

Back to positive comments; SAU Vic TV was an awesome idea and I hope this really takes off!

I know exactly what your saying. There was a technical issue during the drive out. I forgot to turn on the power to the mic. If you want to check out an older video I did at the same location go to my "htial1" channel.

Fair enough, that is understandable. I have seen that old video; I'm in it :P (back when the car had the ugly BN body kit). Keep up the good work!

I saw your post about that. What a dog act. Let's hope karma is strong for you.

We'll have to get together with your next car for a "Members and their Rides" episode.

I'm not going to bother starting a new thread for this question, because I hope most of you "watch" topics you reply in...

What do people think the "Tags" and "Catogory" of SAU Vic TV should be???...

I'm mainly thinking about what should go in every video. I'd only put something like GOR in videos that were down the Great Ocean Road. But I was thinking things like SAU Skyline Skylines Vic Victoria Australia should go in the Tags for every video.

Good stuff , keep it going.

Nows here's some of my videos from the day.

Part 1.

It was my 1st time with this camera so, video is a little jerky , angles are off etc, etc.....

Hopefully I'll have the last two parts up soon.

    • 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.
