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.

you know russman? he got storage in ringwood. dont cost much. 

 

 

 

lowered and turbo engine? racist.

oh, falcon G6E turbo........ unpatriotic

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.

 

Birds, use 88E profits to make your GTR look better (offsets arent the strongest, but dat dish. also a bargain for classic 5 spoke wheels. mental money for OZ or Koenings):

were like the A team, But really gay and soft.


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

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
