yeah I agree Nick, that black V35 is bloody awesome .... when I mention to people that I am thinking of getting one, they all say they hate them and I shouldn't do it! Go figure .... I think they are pure horn!

Hey Matty,

The silver 4 door was me and my new bus, have just got SA Rego for it. The white 33 was off of here to but i cannot remeber the owners name. We were coming back from the charity criuse for Luekemia looking for a place to stop and get a drink. :laugh:

nope......

at this stage i couldn't care less if they are out 70k

anyway back to the real cars

had a 33 sedan (white) in at work the other day, the owner was looking at a jeep/chrysler/dodge have to wait and see if it got traded, looked neat, m spec front bar and a rear wing like your steve.

spotted a midnight R32 on hancock road before we both did the double take :)

not sure if it was oosh

and ways pulling into my suburb i hit the clutch and heard the peddle make a funny pop noise and it felt a little funny after just the peddle any 1 got any ideas

Spotted a silver or grey HR31 on Salisbury Highway just north of the railway underpass at approx. 9:45am this morning. If you're reading this, I was in the black 4 door R31. :)

Thought i saw Sambo33 today at the servo on Richmond Rd, but now i think about it it could have been someone similar, UNLESS he has got new wheels for his car??? Was about to pull up next to him to notice that there was a female in the passenger seat and no Sammy(if it was him)!

I was in that U-Park last Saturday night Brenton - but not tonight. And you wouldn't believe how hard Xmas shopping sucked at the Plaza tonight - ferals all over the shop (more than usual lol).

Spotted Mel and Pawley's Stagea at TTP carpark tonight - wtf are you guys doing leaving that thing for ppl to steal/break into at TTP? (We took the Accord Euro as always and left the 34 at home) :(

    • @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.
