9:45am - arrive and meet at Avalon BP service station car park (at rear)

10:15am - deprture Geelong bound using bypass to Anglesea

11:00am - arrive and meet at Anglesea, car park opposite surfboard shop

11:45am - depart Lorne bound through Great Ocean Road

12:30 - arrive at Lorne, find suitable parking area

12:45 - lunch and bit of socialising amongst Stag members

14:00 - drive down to to a few spots for a few club photos of the cars (example: parking lot near Pier Restaurant as you are driving out of Lorne towards Apollo bay)

Vic is overdue for one so would be great to have as many attend as possible. Fingers crossed Melb weather plays ball.

Will attempt to knock up a map/schedule PDF doco and post it up this week.

Any recommendations regarding UHF channels to use on the day?

Damn...I have a wedding on that day....but it doesn't start until 3:30 (reception starts at 6:30) and it's in Barwon Heads....

I currently pondering if I should come for the cruise and then go to the wedding

Come to the cruise and then go wedding! The more attend the merrier!

Any recommendations regarding UHF channels to use on the day?

I suppose any channel would be fine as long as we don't use the emergency channel which I can't exactly remember which channel it was...

Damn i forgot about those. Looks like i might need to buy a set. Where is the best place to purchase a pair of walkie talkies? lol

I bought mine from Autobarn during a sale, some low end Motorola for like $40 i think. Or try Supercheapauto, they should have some.

Wear your suit on the cruise then straight to the wedding. ;)

Fellow members I have a PDF doc to post here which outlines the 2nd March Vic cruise in more detail however I can't seem to attach it, am I missing something?

Otherwise I hope I can PM it to interested members looking at attending.

I don't think you can attach pdf or documents in a post, perhaps try uploading onto somewhere like 4shared or something then link it here?
If still in trouble, I've got a 4shared account which i can upload and link here if you send it to me.

Fellow members! See the Vic Stagea Cruise plan/schedule as per link below

http://www.4shared.com/office/pm5ahPFF/VIC_NISSAN_STAGEA_CRUISE_-_2nd.html

Let me know your thoughts and if changes are required.

This cruise wil be a carpark. Airshow is on at avalon. Theres alredy signs up everywhere about expecting delays..........

I wouldn't think so, worst which could happen is the left lane on the freeway towards Avalon exit would be slow bumper to bumper and we'll just cruise pass on the middle and right lane.

On a side note, weather for Sat 2nd is 26degrees and mostly sunny!

    • @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.
