If anyone has any suggestions of locations, please post them up. Here's some ideas as to what I'm looking for:

* Quiet - can't have people walking through shots or traffic on the road.

* Scenic - either a nice backdrop to put the cars against for static shots, or something that can blur up nicely in motion (trees, buildings etc.)

* Smooth/flat surface - self explanatory really.

* Accessible - Somewhere within reasonable distance from the city.

Locations:

Tally Ho Business Park - Burwood. Has lots of places to take some good shots. Industrial Buildings - Hi-Tech Buildings - Scenic Lake Backdrop - Smooth Surface - Heaps of space and different locations.

Graff Wall - There is a great graff piece on Ferntreegully Rd. that would make a nice backdrop if your into that sort of thing.

Cop Station @ night - Bit of Fun... "DEFECTED DECEMBER"

New Quay - Docklands

Telstra Dome @ night - heaps of room and not much action around the stadium itself + looks GRAND & Bright with NEON + some of the buildings around it are "interesting"

Performance Shop - ?????????

Just some initail ideas

Preliminary Shoot

Date/Time: Sunday 26th December, 6pm

Location: Greensborough Plaza Car Park, off Church St.

Who should attend: Anyone on the list who is available on the day (and wants to drive to Greensborough)

Shoot details: This is really the "pilot" shoot, so if you miss it don't worry. We'll be discussing a few locations, testing some angles, working out any problems we might face.

YES, there will be many more shoots!

There's a place around Albert Park Lake which I like taking car shots... nice when the sun is going down.... great back drop with the palm trees and lake. I'll try take a few new shots of my car later today.... If the sun comes out

Location is on corner of Springvale Rd. and Burwood Hwy. Enter off Springvale Rd. going Nth. @ MYOB Building or enter off Burwood Hwy. @ Lakeside Drive (where VIC Roads is)

I wold say that the MYOB car park is the best meeting spot (out in the open)

Someone may want to drop in and scope the place out if passing by in the next few days.

Please don't blame me if the location is not ideal... but we will have many other shots and locations to visit B4 final compilation is made.

If you guys want a 32 gts-t in the shoot id be more than happy!

My car apprears to be quite clean:

It recently had a re-spray (white) its got 18's, gtr front, no rear spoiler, lowered with tein coil overs and blitz front mount.

Interior is spotless...

take it easy

    • 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.  
    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack. 
    • Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
    • In my head it does make sense to be a fuel problem since that is what I touched when cleaning the system. When I was testing with the fuel pressure gauge, the pressure was constantly 2.5 bar with the FPR vacuum removed. When stalling, the pressure was going up to 3.0 bar (which is how it should be on ignition).
    • ECUtalk pages don't mention they support the ABS computer (consult port has more than one CAN), so you might just need a different scan tool. But, I would expect ABS is a different light to the brake warning/handbrake light, do you see an ABS light come on for a few seconds when you turn the key from ACC to IGN? But since you said: I'd have a look at the ABS sensors in the rear hubs to make sure they are not damaged, disconnected etc.
