Spotted a Red Stagea at the BP down on South rd Next to Maccas

Was washing his car...

Frount Mount, and Zorst, looked really nice, must of just been complied cos it had X plates

Had stockie 32 rims too

That was me, on the way to A.I.R. to try it down the 1/4 mile for a bit of a laugh. I ended up racing a Subaru Legacy GT. I managed a 15.0, the Subaru with similar mods ran a 15.5

I was with my mate in his G/F's Pink Civic hahahaha

I was gonna come up and have a chat with ya but yeah, didn't wanna bother ya.

NICE CAR BY THE WAY!

OUCH - I thought a Stagea with any kind of mods would be plenty faster than that!

Mine is only an RS Four with an RB25 and it weighs about 250kg more then a R33 Skyline. The Autech 260RS has an RB26 and run about a 13.5 second quarter.

I ran mine at 10psi, and only managed a 60 foot time of 2.29 and 91.36 mph top speed.

Thanks mate, they make a good family car. I saw you looking at the car, I thought you were Victorians as you had vic plates on the Civic. Anyway, should've come over for a chat.

Cheers

yeah I agree, but it is a unique atmosphere.

We are going to Lenzerheide next month for a mid-year dinner for my wife's work with open menu and open bar :( .... double serve of Morton Bay Bugs coming up for me :)

We went to The Blanc the other week and damn that was nice - you should check it out one night - absolutely 5-star service and food! Not 5-star, but quite possibly the best Chinese food you will find in Adelaide is Citi Zen - we are going there next week and my mouth is already watering at the thought of the Peking Duck!!!

Like you say, it is a different thing at the Red Sea, but is well worth the experience.

dude try the crispy duck with pancakes mmmmmmmmm to die for at citi zen

saw an r34 on waymouth st in the city on friday 6th May, with no wing, mmmm very nice. Think the number plate was R34!

Yeah that would be one of the members from SA, well his former car...

Has been sold now to a new female owner...

Really cool chick!

AWESOME CAR!

there was a white one with white deep dish rims that looked crazy on the track

And that would be Mark's car (moo_r32), very nice clean car, and good drifter... Well i havn't seen him on the track as yet hehe

spotted a JZX100 chaser tonight

white with TRD bodykit, 18" chrome deep dish, big exhaust

with premium plate - CCxxxx

very nice car!

have a bit of fun with him and a holden GTO

pretty even 1-3 gear and 1/2 car ahead him at 4

while the GTO is 3 car lengh behind us :)

Was in town not long ago and spotted a shiny ass literally sparkling black r33. Turned out to be sam's. Damn, is your car always that clean and shiny. I dont think you spotted me as i was in my old man's car even though i was waving uncontrollably. =D

Cant remember the name of st but you were on the road between the BP in town and the BMW dealer.

I occassionally spot Andrew as well when im heading towards magill/norwood on st bernards rd - i think its called. but im always going in the opposite direction. You car looks so stealth and low, i love it.

yep I have photos of it - I wish I could make a mould ..... mind you, I might be selling my car soon(ish) .... thinking of getting an R34 GTT - I am so sick of the little luxuries my car doesn't have, like climate control, remote boot release, traction control. Don't flame me, but I am seriously considering tiptronic auto (which I would get strenthened and add a high-stall to, of course).

    • @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.
