I reckon I'll be there, look on the bright side, cars glisten in the wet. Even a shitty paint job looks a million $$$. Might miss the BBQ if its raining though, done my time around a hotplate with a brollie up catching all the smoke, eating half raw snags in saturated Nike/Addidas/?????. But I'll pack for it anyway.

But the sun is gunna shine, the sky is gunna line [makes no sense, but sounds good] no evil thoughts here.

if we all polish/wax our cars nicely, we'll get that awesome beeding effect. i've had it for a while now, but it needs a clean.

they said it would rain today, and nothing happened until 5ish, and that wasn't even rain... stupid BOM.

Everyone pay attention to what Terminal has to say!!There's a positive in every negative!I've just finished going over my ride in time to hide it from the rain,but if worse comes to worse tomorrow,we can all get those cool water beading shots mentioned!Then you can at least tick that scenario off the list of photo oppertunities...

      RB25DE NEO with Haltech ECU

      By feartherb26 · Posted

      If you take the top half of the intake off you can unbolt the flap off the shaft and leave the shaft in there blocking the hole. Then you can remove the little vacuum canister off from under the manifold and get a spare vacuum line to run to the ECU. I can take some photos of it later. Probably best to get the vacuum source to the ECU sorted first though. Mine all worked mint with the base map from the GTT an I've pretty much let the closed loop sort the fueling and took 1 degree out of the whole timing map.

      This IS something you also have to configure in Haltech (or at least I did in the past when going from onboard-to-ECU map sensor and an external MAP sensor in haltech land).

      I'm hoping it's something as simple as the ECU is looking for an external MAP sensor, but he is trying to use the onboard MAP sensor.

      You won't need to do that if your happy to learn to tune it yourself. You 100% do not need to do that. It is not part of the learning process. It's not like driving on track and 'finding the limit by stepping over the limit'. You should not ever accidently blow up an engine and you should have setup the ECU's engine protection to save you from yourself while you are learning anyway. Plenty of us have tuned their own cars, myself included. We still come here for advice/guidance/new ideas etc.  What have you been doing so far to learn how to tune?

      Put the ECU's MAP line in your mouth. Blow as hard as you can. You should be able to see about 10 kPa, maybe 15 kPa positive pressure. Suck on it. You should be able to generate a decent vacuum to about the same level also. Note that this is only ~2 psi either way. If the MAP is reading -5 psi all the time, ignition on, engine running or not, driving around or not, then it is severely f**ked. Also, you SHOULD NOT BE DRIVING IT WITHOUT A LOAD REFERENCE. You will break the engine. Badly.
