i think im driving round 2 much lol...even getting pics taken of me lol

danieltangtc: ah yes i rem, u turned near the bp? i live just few more streets up...

nozila: lol

DC GTST: sorry dude id have wound down the window but wasnt sure if it was u, cos had some other wierdo in a 32 stare me out when i nodded at him b4 lol...u drive that way much? im always heading home from work at that time...catch up :laugh:

last nite on my little outing on hindley, followed a 33 and a s14 down anzac, and this s14 looked stock as, no exhaust or fmic and it killed me!!! ;) time 4 a power fc! (i couldnt change gears good enough cos of my plaster lol)

from memory was the S14 a red colour hes running a T28 roler bearing steel wheel turbo @ 16psi i had a drag with him but i took him for 1st and 2nd and then he took me :laugh: story of my life too much weight in the GTS-4

No.. Not too much weight not enough power. ;)

Nice little gcg highflow or hks3037 similiar should sort the weight issue out. :D

wot 1680kg isnt too much

other optons sound expensive .. i tend to spend money on my pc rather than car :D least having a fast PC wont make me loose my license :laugh:

lol..

No doubt u overclock the sucker? Bit like winding up the boost really. :P

lol naw dont really need to yet :D

x1900xtx runs pretty fast in a P4 3.4 i have OC a little but i prefer to just run it stock as with over boosting u can run into trouble with hardware too

Ahh... you see thats your problem.

You have bought a little P4 (4cylinder) that is required to rev to 3400mhz in order to have similiar performance of an AMD (V8) @ 2200mhz. :P

lol

Not really related to overclocking... lol

On that note I'm soon in need of an upgrade. I'll be heading the P4 route this time. This little AMD 2100+ @ 3200+ has lasted 4years.

lol thats a good analagy anyways my next computer is going to be AMD not sure wot core though

im looking @ this mobo though

DFI lanparty

Be sure to researc the board plenty as amd boards ALWAYS seem to have annoying issues due to chipset. Probably the same with intel, just I haven't experienced it yet. :P

I went an ABIT, and would most definitely go one again.

One reason I am going an intel chipset board with a P4 next time around.

I'm considering a P4 dual core, I'm hoping I can hang out until they get the mem controller on chip. :D

sorry can't agree with you there Joel - this is my 4th AMD and they all have run perfect. Have had it 2 years and is an XP2500+ running at 2.2Ghz (ie. like a 3000+) no probs whatsoever. You HAVE TO HAVE decent cooling though.

ahh they do indeed have their little idiosyncries.

i.e returning out of standby issues, dead bios issues etc.. Otherwise.. Rock solid.

Not processor related, more so chipset and motherboard manufacturer related.

They aren't that bad but what I was getting at is 'some' of the amd boards are indeed quite bad. I can't say I like MSI, I forget the model, it was a little quirky with ram and didn't like to overclock. I'm sure there's similiar examples within the intel range.

    • 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.
