SAU VIC Presents Round 8 - Haunted Hills |10th September *Capped entries*


Recommended Posts

Do you guys have requirements on roll cage padding?  I'm going to put some SFI approved stuff just on the bar where my helmet could hit but was wondering if that would be enough for this event and similar sprints?

Umm check the CAMS Web site as they changed requirements a few years ago.

I've read it but it seems that every club varies depending on the event.  Went and spectated at a Tampered day and the padding on cars varied massively from the cheap noodle stuff to a tiny piece of SFI stuff just where the helmet might touch the bar so there was no consistency.   Will see what happens Saturday. :)

Ok supp regs are updated, I will also email them to everyone tomorrow when entries close.

Entry list updated and entries close 5pm tomorrow

There are garages at HH?  Will there be any reserved for the day that we can put items we don't want to get wet with rain... lol

I don't think there are but if so they would be $50. 

Bring a tarp to wrap it all in that's what most people do there. We might bring a small marquee for spectators.

Ah ok, makes sense, if I dont have a tarp I might just grab a cheap one to cover stuff up... :)

Ok a quick event update has been emailed to all competitors and entries are now closed.

Some of us are meeting at BP eastlink outbound 6:30am if anyone wants to meet us.

Not a bad sort of day at Haunted Hills.

A massive thanks to those in the SAU Vic committee that helped with the day either putting it together beforehand or on the day. A lot goes to put on these events and they wouldn't be possible without some dedicated people.

Thanks to the drivers and spectators for coming out and braving the cold, and also three cheers for the people who run the venue, such a great place to spend any afternoon! We hope you all had a good day and that you're already looking towards the next event! :)

If you have any photos or vids from the day feel free to post them here and use #SAUVic so we can see your shots, and maybe even share one or two on our FB page.

If anyone took pics on the day please post here:

Thanks to everyone for organising the day and to Collins for pushing the guys to get them to do back to back runs on the first course as that helped a lot for me personally.

It was my first ever hill climb in my "V8 Supercar" as it's been named so was pretty sketchy at times but thoroughly enjoyable.  I've attached a couple of pics I took and a video of one of my laps where I was just getting my head around the track but as it's been pointed out to me I forgot what to do with my hands so they were all over the place haha.

Only took a few pics, but here they are. Sorry about the Esky/Beemer bias!

Thanks Andrew and SAU Motorsport, good day out despite the average weather :)

    • @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.
