From my understanding and personal experience - The events thread doesn't get used but only for official events. Not sure how others work it but if I see an event in the Event section I already know it's an official one and such whereas if the social events are posted in the general ACT section it gets maxium view but also telling us it's not official without actually going into the thread. Either way ! if social events are being hosted in the Events section, I need to remember to look in there every so often :P

events thread is yo try and keep the general thread tidy, and its one place you can check, rather than trawling through all the crap to find whats happening.

its this way in most of the states areas.

Yep, but we're in Canberra and nothing happens in Canberra :P

No idea - when we do these type of events it's kinda a "Me and my mate are doing this, whoever shows up is welcome". So I'm guessing Shell and a few others have already agreed on eating dinner then watching a movie and then gave an open invitation to the rest of us. So it's not like a "Put your name down here - Fees here and you must come if paid" etc.

Free event (Pay for dinner / Movie ticket). Shell might ring a dinner place to book a table for at least x amount of people or might just be a wing-it thing when we rock up (Let's eat here, it looks like it'll cater for us).

Hope this helps.

good ol Rosie will be there?

Still deciding on going or not - I'm at the most Northen part of Canberra and driving to the Southside is some distance. If I had someone to tag with I'd go but not sure if any Northers are going.

I love how Canberrans think it's far to drive from one side of town to an other as if half an hour is such a huge chunk out of their lives ;)

I would come but I have other friends going in the city so we're heading to Dendy.

filling up 4 times in the past 5 days (Victorian trip nonetheless) You'd be thinking twice about driving 60 minutes anywhere. ;)

Ironic that someone would buy a Skyline then complain about fuel hahaha

Bitch please. my car is running almost double the power yours has. I know how bad they are on fuel. I didn't buy one and complain when i had to drive it!!

    • 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.
