Ok im not going to go into how or y i found this out, but i did happen to have a chat to one of the nicest cops i have ever come across. He told me that new legislation, lists "Designated Hoon Area's" and that we can have out cars confiscated just for being there during certain times (2-3 in the morning type thing) has neone else heard of this or was it just scare tatics?? either way the cop was really nice to me so thank you its nice to see they all arent out on power trips all the time.

Cheers

John

they would have to confiscate all cars or no cars for just simply being there...........

if they pick and choose when no offence is committed then it is blanent discrimiation. which is illegal and anyone convicted would have a damn good chance in court.

sounds like the cop either didnt know what he was talking about or got it confused with something else..........who knows........

The holding yard for "hoon tows" would not hold 50 cars!!!! and i find it very hard to beleive that 50 vehicle were ALL doin skids or the like at the same time. Seems your informant is pulling your leg dude.

By the way, hows the new 32 goin? heard you have already gone through your rear tyres :)

I got hassled after leaving the adelide police station, I was doing nothing wrong, I was even doing 50 in a 60 zone, I had to look back and see if I was in the wrong lane., but nah this cop was on a powertrip, and lucky for my friend walking past, who can be a witness(cops grabbed himd and checked his pockets) taht the cop was trying to consicate my car. All I had to do was ring Helen in J.A.B and tell her whats just ahppened and that cop would have backed off a fair bit.

Too right, so many police these days are taking the law and how its enforced into their own hands

I honestly dont understand how skylines can get pulled up everytime, but like old ass holdens and fords dont get nothing when in reality they probably havent had a break/tire/engine check for the last 10 years and could break and kill people.. yet we get defected for low front bars

what a joke

he wasnt going to pick or choose just said that if they wanted to which he didnt as he'd had enough of "us" over the last few weeks, he could confiscate all cars that were there under this new legislation.

Thats gotta be BS

I mean thats taking away our freedom,

Its a public place, we have a right to be there if we want to.

What if one of those occasional 40+ year olds that own nice skylines cruised there with his family just to go for a drive?

This is surely BS,

Especially certain places, like BWCP, ide love to see them try and confiscate at the peak of the nite .. like 500+ cars

What the hell is wrong with the police these days, dont they understand we are young and want to be creative and have fun, be unique and that we arent all crazy stupid hoons.

In the last few months ive hardly seen any stupid or 'HOON' driving from any skyline/supra etc

So what is there motivation for making these new laws?

I know its not figures, V8s are involved in WAY more accidents than skylines because of the simple fact that there is way less skylines.

We are a minority group, therefor enforcing a law solely on us will make little if no impact of road safety.

Police these days are absolute morons

Let's go here he says,

It's really good he says,

How come you got the nice one? Glenn and I got Mr Cranky Pants 2004...

Righto.

Actually I can tell you here, we did nothing wrong just drove through Magnesium Drive in Browns Plains at the wrong time. There were boggodore racing as we got there and they nabbed us instead. No real drama. I wouldn't mind so much if I was actually playing up...

yeh i saw a commowhore at Magnesium Drive neally hit a crowd of people, stuiped old vk 6cylender and not even lsd when to do a donut wat happens just does circles that got bigger and bigger until his front wheel hit the cerb and neally hit all his mates. after that we packed up and left.

    • @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.
    • 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.
