Do you know of a good suspension place where they will be able to setup my coilovers properly. At the moment the settings are unknown, and idiots like Pedder's can't do anything unless it's mums shopping trolley. I need someone who races cars to set it up, any ideas?

Thanks for all your advice rev210, I hope its free, or am I going to be invoiced?:burnout:

WA suspensions in osborne park I seem to recall were ok, they should be able to do the settings all the same I'd do the ring around maybe start a thread about this to get the best deal.

Wheels world in subi were the whiteline agents over here, I think they have closed up shop. Youcan probably get them direct from autospeed's shop via the mail in time for next wed. Check out xspeed/speedworks etc to see if they have any pineapple kits in stock other than the whiteline one (anyone will do pretty much).

Advice cost is your car going faster than mine.

Payment for advice, even with the suspension kit installed I'm not sure if I'll get enough traction, but come the new year with the forged pistons and GT30 turbo going in then I hope to start pulling some quick times.

I will start a new thread for suspension tuners. I know I can get the whiteline stuff through Xspeed and others, so I'll try and get it sorted soon.

See'ya

I think you should treat the track like takin off from the lights in wet weather, don't drop the clutch, dont have your revs to high on the launch(bout 3500) and don't slam it into second.

I think we should all head to roe high way and have some drags.

    • 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. 
    • 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).
