OMG MAX EXCITEMENT CRUISE!!!!! THIS SATURDAY 12th MARCH

Ok ladies and gentleman, i lose my license in (well yea ok so i havent paid the fine yet but times running slim so its gonna be in the coming week or so) So I feel its time for one last decent cruise. There have been a few pretty good ones organised to date..(the NSW one comes to mind) so I have decided to run this one in conjunciton with Firefrog's 34 cruise this saturday. I know that many of you have problems with meeting at BWCP and I feel your pain....so either stop whinging and go there or meet at the mobil next to pacific fair shopping centre :rofl:

The details of the cruise are available in mild detail via pm if your desperate to know, however all things will be made clear upon the night. UHF's will be an almost must and if you have a street directory it may help...although its not essential.

Meet Place #1: BWCP 8.30 - 9.00....(PARK END OPPOSITE TO THE POOL END....WHICH IS THE END CLOSER TO SURFERS NOT SOUTHPORT...look for my car 33NIZ)

yes, i know the time is early and no i dont want you to try and come later, its because there are a heaps of cars in the carpark later on and i dont know how you'll find us if your late! We will hang around the car park for a while then once it gets old (which probly wont take to long) We shall depart for.....

Meet Place #2: The mobil Servo next to Pacific Fair shopping centre 10:00 - 10:30! This is for the ppl that are totally non-bwcp. We shall meet there and obtain the rest of the group and continue down the road to a destination for fuel, small drinks and candy for the road...

This should be an exciting cruise not to be missed and hopefully we can have a large group who will get to know each other and their cars...much fun will be had!!

*** This is not an official SAU (skylines australia meet) and 33NIZ or his alias's are in no way accountable for the actions that occur during this cruise blah, blah blah it goes on and on for about 30 pages i can email it to you if you want :).......im only joking, list interest below ***

Cool, you guys should be at BWCP about the same time we are, so we can at least hang out for a little bit until you bugger off :rofl:

as i said in your thread, you guys should come along with us, the cruises are usually a great deal of fun, and alot are half way to brisbane anyway!!

will be there as long as it isnt an excessively spirited drive such as parts of the all nighter

crap suspension, unknown roads and bad night vision can make it an uncomfortable drive.

PM sent regarding this, anyone with queries can pm me, however you should come to the meet point and I will discuss the entire cruise layout there. If your unhappy at least you'll get to see and meet other skyline owners, then you can leave afterwards...everyone wins :P Cyas there, and everyone should continue to register interest with a definate yes or no to help know numbers...

    • 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.  
    • 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.
