Any indication of when? What did he say about the FPR pressure?

Indication early next week

They pulled the fuel pump out and identified a small kink in the line

I told them about the FPR and Ben (I think I was speaking with a Ben :dry: def not Sean as he was on the Dyno) put a fuel gauge on the car and he said its reading 300kpa so thats a good sign (approx 43psi)

Still need to do a few more poawa runs and hopefully its done.

Awww thats kinda sucks

Never had such a hard time b4 with mechs and tuners - everything appears to be lob sided theses days :/

well thats good.

The EFI thing is unfortunate, he would have had a tight schedule leading up to powercruise then when yours required extra work there just would not have been time to do so with out fecking everyone elses schedules to hell.

I actually feel kinda bad about recommending you go there now, but I still maintain the tuning work will be worth the wait! Sorry! :(

Not your fault mate.

I am sure Sean does good things. Which is why he is so busy too.

Bad timing appears to be my detriment.

Nothing I can do there but try to play my cards right.

A smart man told me once 'that good things take time' he knows who he is :turned:

Hopefully x all fingers and everything else the Ant-eater will be done and I will be driving it :worship:

I remember going to EFI/ERD last year just before powercruise. Let's just say insanity was an understatement. They were BURIED under work.

yep its really full on, same thing before Jambo

I've been forever pondering lately what gets prioritised through workshops / tuners

seems like FIFO is not something you can rely on as turnaround indicator

    • Ok so after much research and talking with knowledgeable people I've got my turbo conversion done and it's all running great other than 1 small issue.  Car has remained auto with the na auto and tcm, I've used a stagea ecu with. NIstune board and everything is great other than my gear selection on the dash. It illuminates park, reverse, neutral, 3rd and 2nd. But nothing drive or what gear your in when you pop it into tiptronic.  I'm sure there is may e 1 wire in the ecu plug I need to move to rectify this. Dose anyone here have any ideas?   Cheers guys
    • Sorry I haven't been following all the detail, so you may have tried this. Does it idle with the tiniest bit of throttle you can add? You've mentioned the IACV, does it have an AAC valve and have you adjusted it at all (ie, screw the idle adjust screw all the way in, then back it out a couple of turns until idle is stable)?
    • My bad, I unplugged the one underlined in red instead of yellow before. With the car started, after unplugging the IACV (the one underlined in yellow), it idled at around 400/500 for 3 seconds before stalling. Attempting to start the car without the IACV will not start the car.   It does stutter and sputter for around 5 seconds before dying. However, immediately after starting it, you can already hear some slight sputters from the exhaust.   It won't start with the AFM unplugged. If it is when the car has already started, it stalls in a few seconds.   Yesterday, I did take some logs using Nistune of 3 scenarios. Car idling till it stalls Car idling and unplugging the IACV Car idling and removing the AFM I also have some previous logs of when the Car is idling till it stalls and when driving and it cuts. I am not really knowledgeable enough to understand what to look for. After every test, car idles rougher and rougher, until I have to stop. It will be fine the day after.
    • There is no difference between a 17x8 and an 18x8. The total diameter of the tyre needs to remain +/- the same (so you don't mess up the gearing, speedo reading, and clearance when turning front wheels..... so you just need to use a lower profile tyre on th 18 than you do on the 17. /rocket surgery.
    • I thought the same to start with. But then I thought it was one of those LCAs where the end of the ARB goes through a bushing in the LCA itself, instead of having an end link.
