I would have come if i had checked the forum earlier. I hope alot of money was raised, they sure need it. Makes me feel bad i have a roof over my head and nice things, while they have apsolutly nothing. Wish there was more i could do. Makes us feel lucky about our families that are around us and what we have, and that we never know what will happen tomorrow.

well from the first and 2nd meet point it was HUGE guys...

well done to everyone who showed up and donated some money.

apparently there was cop trouble at the start, dunno bout the rest of the cruise though

good work to everyone who took part, sorry i didnt hang around (although half u wouldnt have noticed anyways ahaha) but i was buggered from the weekend and hungry.

What a fantastic turnout! Jeeeeeeeesus, good on you WA for getting behind such a worthy cause. Will be good to hear the final count on the money raised. I took off after the Bunnings checkpoint as waiting 45mins to get into or out of a carpark wasn't my idea of a fun cruise. I did my part and donated, chatted to a few familiar faces then promply took off.

Well done to the organisers and cheers for all involved. :)

For a slow, charity cruise i saw some very stupid driving... A speed camera, a couple of accidents and some police to make sure things were going to plan made it a reasonable cruise. Hopefully the camera on the freeway didnt claim too many..

A few stupid people around which is to be expected with a cruise this size, i guess. Hopefully everyone raised a decent amount of money for those less fortunate.

did the cruise happen to go on the freeway... near leech highway exit?

i was going to the girlfriends place, and this nice R33 with a SAU sticker goes past me (SWEET 33T i think...)...huge rear wing you got!

yes it did and yes that was us, [veilside wing]. huge cruise and a great turnout with donations that will help people a lot worse off than we can imagine.

Great cruise for a great cause! Sooooo many cars. I left after Bunnings - a few people being idiots with that many cars worried me a bit! Pity about the accident, at least it wasnt serious. BUUUT majority of people followed the rules.

Excellent job done by the organisers. Glad to hear alot of money was made! :)

    • @Haggerty this is your red flag. In MAP based ECU's the Manifold pressure X RPM calculation is how the engine knows it is actually...running/going through ANY load. You are confusing the term 'base map' with your base VE/Fuel table. When most people say 'base map' they mean the stock entire tune shipped with the ECU, hopefully aimed at a specific car/setup to use as a base for beginning to tune your specific car. Haltech has a lot of documentation (or at least they used to, I expect it to be better now). Read it voraciously.
    • I saw you mention this earlier and it raised a red flag, but I couldn't believe it was real. Yes, the vacuum signal should vary. It is the one and only load signal from the engine to the ECU, and it MUST vary. It is either not connected or is badly f**ked up in some way.
    • @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.
