Top Night, Made out like a bandit with the raffle.

The Bonnet wrap is a fantastic product, lots of instant horse power to be had with that.

Thankyou to Terry and the SAU boys for organising the night, and to the Meguiars boys as well for putting in on.

Had a great night! I had to cut it short due to personal matters I had to attend to.

My apologies for not saying hello to those who I intended to (Terry, SiNNO, darksky34 to name a few). Didn't want to make things awkward/be rude and chatter away during the demo. For everyone there, I'm probably the youngest one lol, rocking in my peachy singlet.

I agree. A great night put on by Motor Active.

A big thanks to SAU for organising this for us. Great info and can't wait to try out the liqui moly products and meguirs products I bought. (I've already used the gold class rich leather product on my seats and it looks good. Love the smell as well.)

Great bunch of guys you are & so, the Meguiar's crew enjoyed it too.

This club of ours is the only club to have received a complimentary "wrap" > and not only did they give away one > it was two!!!

The winner of the "best sport award" has to go to Duncan!!!

> there he was minding his own business

> waiting for the door prizes to be given out

> I held ticket #18

> Duncan held ticket #26

> I said, "Take this. This is the winning ticket!"

> Duncan obligingly swapped

> The first prize awarded was of course, ticket #26

> Ticket #18 didn't win anything

> I'll let you know one day Duncan what was in the box :whistling:

Burning I couldn't stay for the draw. Could have had a chance. Was it just a straight pick out or was there a re-draw due to no-claim?

Was fun guys, thanks to Terry, Luke, Eric, Ryan, and whoever else had a hand putting it together. Thanks to the motor active guys, who run like a well oiled machine, and seem to have a product for everything!

Was interesting seeing the wrapping, impressive product.

Can't wait for tech night #2!

Great night!! Big thanks to all the organizers and the guys at motor active for putting on a great night!!

Good to catch up with everyone again and great to see everyone fighting to get a spot, hope that sways a few people to become members ;)

Bring on the next tech night!!

A big thanks to all the SAU organizers and the guys at motor active for putting on a great night.

I was very impressed by the product demonstrations and could not believe how far wrap products have come in the last few years because the R31 bonnet simply looked amazing.

Great team effort Andy > Win-win for all!!!

You're invited to Tech Night #2 > I'll PM you Andy.

And as Arnold says in a film, "We'll be back!" of something like that!

Meguiar's team has been gracious to say the least > your tutors were really good!

    • 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. 
    • Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
    • In my head it does make sense to be a fuel problem since that is what I touched when cleaning the system. When I was testing with the fuel pressure gauge, the pressure was constantly 2.5 bar with the FPR vacuum removed. When stalling, the pressure was going up to 3.0 bar (which is how it should be on ignition).
    • ECUtalk pages don't mention they support the ABS computer (consult port has more than one CAN), so you might just need a different scan tool. But, I would expect ABS is a different light to the brake warning/handbrake light, do you see an ABS light come on for a few seconds when you turn the key from ACC to IGN? But since you said: I'd have a look at the ABS sensors in the rear hubs to make sure they are not damaged, disconnected etc.
