ECR033, did u find someone to do the work for you? if ur looking at somewhere pm me and i can give my mates at MRT a call and get a quote for you, just tell me wat work needs to be done and wat parts u have.....

Not yet mate - still looking into it. Once I sort out exactly what I need done, I'll drop you a PM :P
id say ur clutch will hold, i had a 5 puk clutch before this one and man it used to take a thrashing, just was a little bit of a bitch when it heated up... i dunno though

it depends on the clamping pressure too, your one might be fine just wait and see...

with most puks and buttons they are not meant to be slipped much at all, so if you slip it they overheat quickly and will slip easily. but once cooled down they will be fine again..

so yeah if u dont slip them they should be fine.

I run a 9puk Ceramic 1tonne, these handle up to around 300rwkw without any issues.

I had a play with launching in second at 3000rpm, the clutch had to be ridden otherwise it would break out in to a wheel spin.

With quite a bit of slipping it showed zero signs of wanting to slip, felt exactly the same after the big slip, unlike organics that go all crappy until they cool down.

I've previously had organic clutches that with a hard launch had second gear slipping. :P

Ceramics tollerate heat better than organics in the respect of grip however they are known to burnout quick if they are slipped too much.

GunMetalR33: just curious, is ur engine internally standard? or u got some work done?

Nup, all stock inside. I would like to get a new zaust cam but i dont have the $700 for it. I am hoping to get around 260rwkw at ~20psi. I would be happy with 250 though :D

hey guys just dropped my car off at the exhaust place to get the dump fixed up, should be done by this arvo, then the tuner will take it tonight and hopefully it will be mine tomorrow, worst case wednesday.....yay cant wait!!!

  • 2 weeks later...

hey guys, tuner got back from jamboree today, he was really impressed with the power my car is putting out on a mild tune. from wat he says, cruising at 90kmh in 3rd gear, once he puts his foot down the car starts wheel spinning. car goes on dyno this saturday for a proper tune and reading. Look out guys this is looking promising!!!!

Yep new tires.

240rwkw here and with new 225's I'm lucky to start losing traction in second on a smooth flat road.

I can chirp into third with a nice clutch slam but noooooooo hope of the car breaking traction due to pure power in this gear.

What tyres are those? I have some cheap 265's with new tread and can spin up in second... with only 200rwkw

Edited by GunMetalR33

yeh guys i know that, but my tyres are fine, they are new and i have 255's, it spins them easy, i have dunlop sports which have a fair bit more traction then my old tyres, i used to be able to spin 3rd with a clutch dab before, now its even easier....

    • 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.
