You're literally the most boring car guy I know..

At least tune it on E85

Highflows are epic on E85

Turbo is ace, strong as the day I put it in after 40,000km+. I blew a T3 gasket recently cause a nut or two were missing from the flange lol

We replaced that (and tightened manifold nuts which were also loose) in about 3 hours and it's better than ever :)

Now traction is an issue again, even with AD08s :(

hmm christmas bonus.

house deposit or wide body kit...

hard choice

Refresh motor. Use my gaskets.

Leave car rat-spec. GTX turbo. Decimate all.

The pulsar has Nismo key, Nismo oil cap and some random Nismo badge thing on the centre console. Says volume about the previous owner....

The Nismo weighted gearknob is very nice though.

Ran into a guy on site who was at Roy Hill most of this year... Some f**king stories. Sounds like one of the biggest circus construction jobs. Dodged a bullet not going, but could have really done with the work.

Apparently they couldn't find Australians of my profession with experience in a newer Siemens equipment that hasn't been released here... So Samsung send their team over from Korea. None of whom spoke English or had worked in Australia before. Then they needed more, so one of the Zimbabwean managers brings over all his friends. Needed interpreters and constant supervision. Singing and chanting during lunch and in the mess hall. $90/h wouldn't have been too shabby though for 80 hour week.

haha yeah ive heard interesting stories about the construction.

I believe there was a memo published by Samsung which had a photo of tradies standing around on the job; Memo said to performance manage crew & to utilise idle time. Memo leaked onto Facebook & all the tradies blew a gasket.

Korean Management managing an Australian tradie workforce. Will never go down well haha.

You say that but when the entire construction work force has the mindset of "the sooner we finish the job, the sooner I'm unemployed" not a whole lot gets done. Combined with people who have no idea what they're doing and contracting more people who don't know what they're doing and you get $600mil+ over budget and not even close to finishing.

In Queensland last year I think the whole thing was $2bil over. We were the 3rd set of contractors to do exactly the same tasks at the same locations. Was a clusterf**k. Pretty much sums up mining/oil/gas construction jobs. And now that they're wrapping up, all these Muppets from WA, SA, NT and QLD will be looking for more stable work. A large percentage of the skilled workers are foreigners too. Goddamn south African migration on some sites.

motor only ahd 10-15K on it, no need for a refesh there esp with how log boost it is running..

That's either a reeeeeeally cheap house or a reeeeeealy overpriced bodykit

no where near a total deposit, but should go in that account.

think will split it in 2 and get best of both worlds.

    • 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.
