do track day b4 fitting

+1

blah_blah got full GTR kit + full spray.. too clean to track now. if you wanted mechanical + exterior mods, should have bought someone else's package IMO. especially if you're on a budget.

Not turning it into a full track car, just keen to do a few days :)

Have to agree with the below comment haha. I would prefer to do up my current car even if it costs me a bit more. I have a budget for the mods I'm doing, but that doesn't mean I don't have the money if that needs to extend ;) Saving up for other things instead, car gets a certain percentage.

Weak as f**k excuse serious. Vu charges like $200 to spray a front bar.

*googles mechanic wages* never knew what they actually earnt

actually on that subject mrs works at super a mart casually, overheard & told me the full time sales dudes get $18 p/h, not sure what / if there's commission

surprised me a little bit.

edit: why wouldn't they just sell houses instead and get dat dere 6figs?

The more people present the less accountability per team member. Which can result in a bigger pisstake for something which needs to be taken seriously lol

Sounds like we need to FIFO Pat in to oversee the change management processes

Sorry brah we ain't all on oil changer wages

Get on my level brah

The worst part About Borcis job is when I bring my r32 in.

I try to tee up 2 weeks of holidays whenever you're booked in because thats how much time needs to be spent on yours to make it okay.

Because he has to interact with you?

Nailed it.

I prefer when they actually give them to you rather than show in the magazine....

what I have to put up with for breakfast sat.

I'm gonna state in advance, and no offence intended Greg, but you are banned from attendance

Was gonna say there's a NEO engine for sale for $2500.

I can't even f**king pay people to do this kind of thing for my car, 100% confident a stock engine will last a lot longer than getting whatever the f**k has gone wrong with mine this time fixed.

I am very used to something like a direct engine swap, when I can get the engine there, just taking 12 weeks because reasons. If y'all can actually get it done in a couple hours I'll just go punch myself in the face some more.

    • 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.  
    • 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.
