a mate just asked me about a "stage 2" kit for my car

Goodbye cruel world

LOL

it is an issue. they have effectively built a racetrack around public land and are not paying appropriate rent for it because the land rests in a trust of which 40% of the controlling vote are members of the MRC.

we dropped in on the way past and it's a fair shithole and could be used far more effectively.

im not defending the racecourse members club, just seemed silly to suggest the space could be used for childrens sporting clubs and that 400 kids missed out on playing sport

Can't comment as it may or may not be true, but there are a LOT of ovals in that area

side note... we drove past a new outdoor waterpark just near there that is under construction and looks f**king awesome

whos got the pics of martin putting his car into the wall? i want to show the kid that works for me how he may die.

Basiclly I did everything stupid you can do.

That was 100% my stupidity.

I've done a bunch of driver training for newbies first thing I tell them you never set a record lap first thing in the day.

Take it easy warm into the track and then start pushing it.

So first thing on a 2 day track da, on a cold greasy track with cold semis I hit the throttle

Don't blame the car.

On a plus note car looks crap but still straight and still is happy doing laps and or limiter bashing on skid pans.

I knew tassie was having electricity issues since December, and had heard things were being kept a bit hush hush.

Dams there are under 15% capacity and apparently using around 1% a week, supposedly they can run to a theoretical 6.5% but has never been done before. A few big industries have been asked to shut down and apparently are being compensated. That, plus big back-up generators are being put online would cost a fortune. Hiring a big-ass generator is costing $20mil and will cost $11mil per month to run. ouch.

Over 300MW of power comes from wind, which apparently operates at 40% capacity on average.

Temporary diesel and gas generators are being organised or have already been turned on, and a 200MW temporary generator puts into perspective how small a part wind really plays. You cant rely on that shit in an emergency!

    • @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. 
    • If as it's stalling, the fuel pressure rises, it's saying there's less vacuum in the intake manifold. This is pretty typical of an engine that is slowing down.   While typically is agree it sounds fuel related, it really sounds fuel/air mixture related. Since the whole system has been refurbished, including injectors, pump, etc, it's likely we've altered how well the system is delivering fuel. If someone before you has messed with the IACV because it needed fiddling with as the fuel system was dieing out, we need to readjust it back. Getting things back to factory spec everywhere, is what's going to help the entire system. So if it idles at 400rpm with no IACV, that needs raising. Getting factory air flow back to normal will help us get everything back in spec, and likely help chase down any other issues. Back on IACV, if the base idle (no IACV plugged in) is too far out, it's a lot harder for the ECU to control idle. The IACV duty cycle causes non linear variations in reality. When I've tuned the idle valves in the past, you need to keep it in a relatively narrow window on aftermarket ecus to stop them doing wild dances. It also means if your base idle is too low, the valve needs to open too much, and then the smallest % change ends up being a huge variation.
    • 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.
