Review of Mad Mtn 4 Cruise...


Recommended Posts

Guest Boxhead

ok since no one has done it already i will, so people upload your pics and ad what you liked disliked etc...

... Now before i start i would like to say Thankyou for dAVE and his father for letting us have the bbq and after cruise event at there house...

ok cruise was good cept we had to go a different way which was a bit different i guess and not many people knew that way...

personally my fav part was when the cows blocked us off and we were last, then as we got past the calf gave us a bit of a drag, lucky we werent in my car, or we might have had to take overdrive off to win...

its a good event, and i would incourage all who didnt come, to come for next one, and newbies to qld SAU, come along, its a good time and place to have a meet and greet when we stop , or before and after etc...

sorry i have no pics, i need a new pc..

those mad cows :lol: ... boxhead what about that old granpa shouting out from the house :lol: rofl! Those two were the fun parts.

I hope the guy with indicator hanging by its wire got it fixed/replaced..

It was definitely a fun afternoon.

the old guy was a tool, if i was in my car, i woulda got all my rubbish and chucked it at him... ohwell...

yeah they were funny..

hhmm, yeah apparently that guy whose indicater fell out, well he lost us, so he back tracked to hinze damn and called dave when we were at his place.. i beleive he is Biteme on here...

he didnt come down for bbq.. nothing really went on, cept a bit of chit chat, watched tv, no piss up, liek everyone had one or two, cept me and my brother, but thats it..

I lost you guys. I was following dave and MR>E and then I got stuck behind a vehicle and they then I could not see them. So I hot footed until I came to a cross road and wait for ages for someone to turn up but no one came, then I back tracked and took a right which ended up to be a dead end after 4 kms. Then went even further back and then I saw natural bridge and then I knew I was lost. So on the way back I tried to take the route that the Supra took only to find that it was closed due to fire. So drove the way we came back. Not a car in site so I did what all good drives did I travelled @ 90 km :) back home.

My best part was chasing down a Silver 33 and sitting behind him till my right indicator lens popped out. Thanks to guys for stopping and helping me out. Next time I will have to make sure the suspension is made softer. Also with all the road hopping over rises my speaker does not work. I will have to get GCCS to fix it up on wednesday.

It was funny watching that old bugger screaming out his patio. At first I thought he was peeved taht we wher making a scene in the front of his house.

Looks like I need to get a UHF. Darryl what brand did you say was good ??

All in all it was good day

When is the next one !!!

sorry about that.

i think you were following me and Nizman. Before the intersection, was there a really long straight?

we were waiting for about 5 mins, when we got a call on the uhf saying the rest were already at coles.

sorry bout that!

i am planning on getting a proper map for nextime. keep an eye out for one of the area if u see one.

also, UHf radio is a good idea. $99 for a uniden from dick smiths.

    • @Murray_Calavera  If I were an expert I wouldn't be in here looking for assistance.  I am extremely computer literate, have above average understanding on how things should be working and how they should tie together.  If I need to go to a professional tuner so be it, but I'd much rather learn and do things myself even if it means looking for some guidance along the way and blowing up a few engines. @GTSBoy  I was hoping it would be as simple as a large vacuum leak somewhere but I'm unable to find anything, all lines seem to be well capped or going where they need to be, and when removed there is vacuum felt on the tube.  It would be odd for the Haltech built in MAP to be faulty, the GTT tune I imported had it enabled from the start, I incorrectly assumed it was reading a signal from the stock MAP, but that doesn't exist.  After running a vacuum hose to the ECU the signal doesn't change more than 0.2 in either direction.   I'll probably upload a video of my settings tomorrow, as it stands I'm able to daily drive, but getting stuttering when giving it gas from idle, so pulling away from lights is a slow process of revving it up and feathering the clutch until its moving, then it will accelerate fine.  It sounds like I need to get to the bottom of the manifold pressure issue, but the ignition timing section is most intimidating to me and will probably let a pro do that part.  Tomorrow I'll try a different vacuum line to T off of, with any luck I selected one that was already bypassed during the DBW swap. @feartherb26  I do have +T in the works but wanted to wait until Spring to start with that swap since this is my good winter AWD vehicle.  When removing the butterfly, did it leave a bunch of holes in the manifold that you needed to plug?  I thought about removing it but assumed it would be a mess.   I notice no difference when capping the vacuum line to it or letting it do its thing.  This whole thing has convinced me to just get a forward facing manifold when the time comes though.
    • Update: tested my spark plugs that are supposed to be 5ohms with a 10% deviation and one gave me a 0 ohms reading and the rest were 3.9ohm<, so one bad and the others on their way out.
    • 9" wheels are a little too wide for a RWD 32. They can fit. People have put R33 GTR wheels on 32s for years and years. But they are a very tight squeeze. This has been known for about 30 years. As I said - there is no difference between a 17 and an 18 in terms of what will fit. The rolling diameter needs to stay about the same as stock - not very much larger. If you increase that, you will start to have problems. If you increae rolling diamater at the same time as yo increase width, you will have problems earlier. as 9" wheels are pushing the boundaries already, you would need to be careful with tyre choice. I would put 8.5s on the front of mine, but would expect problems with 9s.

    • Diagnostic flow for a code 21 says check signal at the ECU pins, on a voltmeter of some kind it should read 0.1V at idle, 0.12V cranking, 0.15-0.25V at 2000 rpm. Check each coil such that +1, -3 is infinite or very high resistance, -3, +2 should do the same. (-1, +3), (+3, -2), (+1, -2), and (-1, +2) should all be somewhere between 0 ohms and high resistance. If you trace the path from the coil pin all the way back to the ECU in the diagram the resistance you measure at the coil vs connected to the harness should be pretty much the same.
