Thanks for the tip Bec.

Is there a place people are meeting up at on Friday night for dinner?

Aaron,

Last time we all just had dinner at the Victoria Hotel on the Friday night (where we are staying - see post #3 of this thread).

If you like just give me a buzz when you want to catch up - I'll be up there from early on Friday as we are doing the practise day.

PMSL - yeah that was a pi55er.

Waitress to Dave -

"I reccommend the pork"

"here is your pork"

"how is your pork?"

"would you like some more pork?"

"would you like some apple sauce with your pork?"

"so was the pork good?"

Moral of story - country chicks love talking pork to city boys in flash cars!!!!

Mike, there will be definately be spare rooms at the hotel.

I think our flat is pretty full - but the rest of the joint will be empty - you'll be able to grab a room when we get there on friday night easy.

See you at Winton 2moz (Friday) if your going up for the day.

Not sure if there is going to be another dedicated thread to this weekend on the general Vic forum. Got back a couple of hours ago with Snowy. The weekend was awesome and would like to say a massive thanks to Snowy for driving and running me around up there. I have a few pics I will put up in the next day or so too.

Ferni - I will let the racers put their times up but all I will say is they were good :uh-huh:

Oh, and I forgot - BLAZE, YOU GOING DOWN MAN !!!

Prepare for some destruction by the stockie GTRs !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You gotta settle the score from Morwell.

I would say that would be one all Aaron ;)

Snowy, thanks for sucking me along in your slipstream for my fastest lap of the day. Couldn't have done it without you :werd:

Another F#*king mental team wang shenanigans session. So many stories from such a short time... Hard Corey.... Stealth beer run niva.... Belfast car bombs now aka Benalia Wang Busters....abbotsford invald stout....brisby and jail bait.....more benalia sign editing....another priceless weekend with a top crew. Thanks to all of the participants, great to be able to be a part of it. Thank christ there is a month to recover before the next one....ah...but then there is dutton next weekend.....my ovaries hurt.....

    • @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.
    • 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.
