More misinformation man...

I can change my RacePace tune myself and have done so...while driving out on the road. You can mess with the fuel cells if you really want to. You say a laptop is better...great...I have that with the PFC, I can data log and tune with it why are you saying you can't? Besides that, no, I haven't actually had a strange miss...my tune is awesome cause I paid a professional to set it up for me.

My car feels like a factory tune, perfectly so. It's what I paid Chris to do for me.

You're going OCD on ECUs and blaming the PFC for having shortcomings it doesn't actually have.

I'm saying I use the features things better than the PFC have. Your tune "feels" right but there's no way you can perfectly setup a car in a few hours, ever. You can get 90% which is good enough for 99.9% of situations, but not 100%. I change fuel cells all the time (well not all the time, but certainly have in the past after changes are made, on a different mixture of 98/e85 which wasn't done on the dyno, etc.)

How are you gonna know if an injector is slightly failing? Fuel pump is starting to let go? Fuel filter is clogged? You may not care but I sure do and I have that ability. You won't know till you melt a piston. Maybe your components will never fail. Run 2 pumps and ONE dies? Oil temp too high, water temp too high when you're out on track and not *really* looking at Gauges because looking elsewhere? Oil pressure starting to get a bit thin at high RPM? etc.

Logging is great, but automatic logging to the device AFTER the thing you wanted to log has already happened (i.e, don't have to turn on logging first and then go test something) is a godsend.

The powerFC enables you to change fuel maps and timing to allow for mods. For a setup like yours Birds, it's enough, and it does what it does, well. But once you use more than that or think "that'd be useful..." you would never go back to one.

All three men are perceived to be of African appearance.Their car appeared to be lowered and sounded as though it had a turbo engine.

Birds, Moh and Borci all got GTR's.... odie, greg, johnno, pat all got skylines. only one evo around, and its pretty much for sale. 

Balance has been brought to VWL. now just need balance to return to oil prices.

we should do a vwl bbq, seriously.
my mate rogercordia will come too

 

I'm not certain that kinkstah is the same guy who's car is never on the road, and when it is, something dies or is about to die... What I am certain of is that there is a thread somewhere on this forum, dedicated specifically for people to discuss their cars more than they drive them.

Go there

Birds brah, https://csgosquad.com/ranks 

We need 3 more for VWL cs:go team, who is 'the l337 pwn3rs' here? 

Yeah I've seen that rank distribution. It's garbage tho, proved that last night top fragging deathmatch even if you weren't trying. Will create a smurf account either for you to level up or for you to play in my rank and help boost lol

Respawn LAN end of October. Form a 5 man team. I can shoot things but I'm useless compared to the veterans.
Need to reclaim my title on Wreckfest and asetta corsa.


My friend has started a website for oz teams looking for members: www.rekruitable.com

    • 2001 BE5D Subaru Legacy B4 RSK (3rd gen) EJ208 (pink injector) Twin Turbo 280PS 5-speed manual Full time 4WD "RSK" grade which means all of the above LQC option which means stock rear spoiler  I got it primarily to export to someone outside Japan who was interested. These BE5 Legacy B4 RSKs are going through a bit of a resurgence right know in Japan as they are one of the few cars from the "turbo, manual, RWD/4WD, 280hp gentleman's agreement era" cars that don't require stupid money to purchase. Which for some people might be a good opportunity to get as a base for restoration. If I can't find anyone to purchase it I will certainly be doing that myself over the long term. Why? Because it's properly fast in stock form, handles well enough for a GT sedan, there's still enough aftermarket and (if you can wait a while) genuine part support to make it a restoration candidate (<-- that will only get worse over time so it's a case of do it now or choose get a BL5 4th Gen). Mechanically it's fine, has only 89,200kms on the odometer. The problem with this car is that the body and exterior trims are weathered from at least the last 10 years being parked outdoors. I'm the 3rd owner, the first owner was the one that had it for 14 years and barely drove it, had a low-speed front impact (which didn't damage anything behind the radiator support) and got it fixed and sold it. The 2nd owner put most of the kms on it and parked it outside for the last 10 years, hence the door rubbers have seen better days but if you overlook those cosmetic details, it presents pretty nicely. There is some minor rust on the LH rear wheel arch which I'll have looked at too at some stage.  Also as you'd expect from a car this age, the clear top coat is gone, leaving a satin finish on the roof.  Mechanically it's fine (as you would expect from a car with less than 100K kms) but the steering does feel slightly vague around the centre position at higher speeds. So first on the list is to get the steering rack bushes looked at. There's also the Lock button on the remote which doesn't work, but the Open button does.... it means that the anti-theft system thinks it's always open? It seems like if you open the car and don't start the engine within 3 mins or so the anti-theft kicks in again without any beeps or signals. So if you got to start it after that, it won't. You have to push the open button again. That's how I understand it anyway. Just a small irritation but not a big problem to sort out. There's only one mod, the Wangan SPL muffler. Just a tad louder than stock. It's a really good mod for those who don't want to wake the neighbours but still want to hear a more prominent unequal length header EJ20 sound. Anyway I hope to get all those things done eventually, that is unless someone wanted to import it to their country from Japan (where I live). I'm open for negotiations as I really would like a Skyline... but this will definitely suffice in the meantime 🙂 *Disclaimer: This is how I picked it up from the dealer, minus the stuff on the back seat. I haven't cleaned the engine bay or done a thorough exterior clean, aside from spray painting the wipers. 
    • Wow, even with the Audi logo centre caps. I love OEM wheel mismatches. 
    • Welcome!  Can't go wrong with a Stag.
    • Looks good. Nice height.
    • Hey all, a little help from the Stagea hive mind plz.. I'm days away from buying either a 2002 Stagea 250tRS AR-X Four, premium leather, power seats and all the old switches etc that go with it, or a 2002 Stagea 250tRS VR-X Four AERO, pov pack, cloth seats etc, with coil overs, sports zorst, comes with original zorst and suspension and parts. (I think I've got the models right?) Both are VQ25DET, have 160000kms, both straight no rust both with $2000+ in recent servicing receipts, both ride on aftermarket 18" rims. The Aero has a replaced turbo as well. I like the cool factor of the Aero car but the AR-X has never been modified. Neither have been driven hardly at all in the last 5 years. Any thoughts on which one or does it come down to personal preference? davemoto
