Not good man. I hope it turns up. I had my WRX stolen over 2 years ago so I know how you feel. I got up in the morning to find an empty space at my house where my car was parked the night before. Unfortunately is was never seen again... Maybe it was used as a prototype Osman convertible?

man havnt you people realised that gtrs gtst's wrx's and so on are easy targets for theives, and going to the movies with your gtst modified is juts asking for trouble, your car is propably a patty basher or going cheap for parts. but good luck in finding it, its a lesson for next time.

damn hearing people getting there cars stolen really pisses me off. Makes me wanna install them alarms where u have to enter the codes and tracking. Sorry to hear that man. Hope u get ur car back. Next time PLLLLEEEAASEEEEEEEEEEEEEE get insurance. Remember its almost impossible for sum1 to keep a stolen car unless they srap it.

Bloody bastards. I would shoot the guy that did it.

Sorry to hear about your loss, I hope you get it back ..

Nick (NRB) I also had my WRX stolen but mine was stolen right in front of me.. terrible feeling.

Report it stolen to Vicroads .. so whoever stole it cannot re-register it.

    • 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.
    • 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.
