Mugabetown - Whoretownin' At It's Worst.


Recommended Posts

Well the zed is nearly completely back together. Exhaust back on and everything connected. Runs on 6 and can move under it's own power.

Had to relocate the windscreen washer to the boot for airflow through drivers side side mount intercooler. Didn't have enough vac hose at home to run the plumbing but I did run all the electrics for it.

All that is left now is obviously the plumbing for the washer bottle, all the undertrays, and the intercooler ducting which is a royal PITA. Going to leave that until the tech day on sat.

Oh and I need a new wideband sensor. the one I installed is stuffed, reading 3points leaner than the other. Not 3/10th, 3 wholes.

So I was forced to replace my muffler today due to a severe rattle, my car now actually has an exhaust sound.

Picked this up second hand for $100 fully installed inc welding. It's a name brand muffler, but let's just call it a 'legnaflow'...

Morning everyone!

Just a quick pop in to say hi and to let everyone know that the club emails should be working later today.

Unfortunately cmshosting and puntoitalia just flipped the switch and deleted our hosting from their servers without notification or warning.

The hosting has now been moved to a new web host and a blog/news portal with information on what events are coming up etc as well as links into these forums will be setup.

At present, any communication should be directed to [email protected]

All of the @sauqld.com email addresses should be functional later today.

Chat soon. Bout time I turn up to an event and catch up with everyone.

Cheers,

Ben.

I dislike pickles... But ham and cheese are tasty...

I followed lunch up with some popping candy and the accounts girl laughed at me :)

Now I REALLLLLY want milk but I don't have any of my milk at work :(

    • This. The R34 handbrake icon DOES come up when the brake fluid level is low. You might be sitting right on that threshhold. I have been down this diagnosis path and this was the solution (and it was pretty much as full as your picture is to begin with).
    • Unfortunately the cavaet to that is that while any scan tool should be able to read the code, the workshop will need a consult plug to OBD socket adapter. You don't have a location on your profile, where are you based?
    • @Haggerty this is your red flag. In MAP based ECU's the Manifold pressure X RPM calculation is how the engine knows it is actually...running/going through ANY load. You are confusing the term 'base map' with your base VE/Fuel table. When most people say 'base map' they mean the stock entire tune shipped with the ECU, hopefully aimed at a specific car/setup to use as a base for beginning to tune your specific car. Haltech has a lot of documentation (or at least they used to, I expect it to be better now). Read it voraciously.
    • I saw you mention this earlier and it raised a red flag, but I couldn't believe it was real. Yes, the vacuum signal should vary. It is the one and only load signal from the engine to the ECU, and it MUST vary. It is either not connected or is badly f**ked up in some way.
    • @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.
