the only reason 1.5 hours was suggested previously was for entrants to drive up slowly without rushing and get there with time to spare.

If you drive normally it will take you just on 1 hour from thornleigh macca's at the speed limit

*Cough Cough* Ahem, it should take about an hour from the START of the M-2 in Seven Hills, assuming you're sticking to the limit and use the F-3. I live about 5mins from that, so I'm wondering what time the Spectators expect to be cruising through there.

If I'm not a lazy ass I'll cruise up in a crew (bringing up the tail end in my Corolla, most likely)... No promises, but if I know that people will be cruising through Old Windsor Road and onto the M-2 from there at about 9-9.30am, I'll make an effort to get up and moving.

hehe yeah we r just meeting at 8..abit early....but i know peoples will come late..some i am just give some time....and we will be at thornleigh about 9-9;30......leaving thornleight about 10 ................!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!guys remenber DAY LIGHT SAVING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

so 9am is 8am....10am is 9 am!!!!!!!!!!

hehehe...i was going to mention the daylight savings!!!! I'll see you there at 10! :) will call you if i'm running late, or won't make that time....then i'll just see you up there ;)

So am I.

Just finished the signage so everybody can find there way in. Just look for our banner on a big fence, and then follow the A4 signs to where you need to go!

See you all tomorrow!

Dan.

PS.Deserteagle, are you going to entry that beast of yours... or is she going to be left in the car park with the rest of the shit boxes! :D:P

Majanal - I can just show up on the day and enter it?

Coz if I can and the price is right I might....

But I will be cruising up with this hungry jacks lot so I'll be there late??

Another thing guys this daylight saving crap is confusing me...

If I DONT change my watch, does that mean the meet up is at 9am (in today's time)

Oh and judging by the weather tonite we could have rain tomorrow morning

noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

    • 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.
    • 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.
