Ok, to keep forum a bit more alive or more entertain, i'm starting to ask/collect places that you guys go for camping, how far? Whats so good about it? Can you fish there? Lit fire? More to the wild or too comercialise....?

Personally me and my mates always go camping when its' the end of the year time. After a year of hard working, parties ;), clubbing......ect we seek for nature's quiteness, its beauty, relaxation ( well not really when we go hiking like soldier just to see who gets to the top first :) )

Places that i've been to are ofcourse WILSON PROMT ( i found it to be too comercialise ), THE GRAMPIAN ( spelling ), another one which i forgot, its just cross Adel border and it has blue lake...famous for Lobsters......

Anyway, we havn't decide where to go this year yet so i start this thread up to get some ideas of everyone, start typing guys.

OH and pictures too, you know some crazy photos that you took at the camp sites, with your mates.....the girls next door...funny ones, wierd ones.......

i havent been camping in a while no one to go with any more

but i would have to say places like

lil water loo and lake taliecarn (dont no how to spell ) there my two fav

but any where in the prom is nice sept for ovaron i think it was called f**king to many sand flys

as for the lake place you can have fires there and it its always empty mybe a nother tent or two but never packed but mind you it is a 6 hour walk of the top of my head to get there but you can have fires go fishing what ever very nice place

personally i love to go camping on the murray.

the goulburn river is also good. Have been up to yea a few times, but didnt catch much fish (probably wrong bait / gear).

I love apollo bay (although i was camping at a caravan park at the time)

Yeah - the Murray kicks ass.

3hrs - warm weather - sandy beaches - no-one around.

I remember going up there with the girlie a few years ago.

We were there for 5-days and didn't see another soul, nor wear a stitch of clothing all week :D

we spent a weekend up in cahuna on the murray earlier this year.

took up a mates ski boat and camped in a caravan park there, did a bit of fishing and skiing, in between the occasional beverage.

not quite real camping, but the river and weather was awesome.

I'll even keep my pants on.

"I'd like to believe that this time, I really would"

haha :lol:

We go shooting/camping at a friends property in a place called Hay (NSW). About 5 hours from everywhere. Awesome to have a bit of a break from the big smoke.

They have a bit of a saying on the drive there, it doesn't matter if you fall asleep behind the wheel, you'll run out of petrol before you hit anything...

ahahha thats mad

I'll even keep my pants on.

whats the point of going then? lol

id have 2 say hay is definately a good place to go camping around easter time, not too hot then. the murrimbidgee river usually has good fish at that time of yr

as for the murray its flowing at almost full capacity. lake hume here in albury is actually full for once.

plenty of good places to go along the murray n even upstream of here is good for fishing/camping

If you dont mind a bit of a hike go to lake Tali Karng, it's in the alpine ranges with some really good day hikes around the lake itself... I reckon it's a top destination.clicky>>>Tali Karng google it...many pics n pages... or if you dont mind a few peeps about the wilsons prom>Mt oberon>sealers cove hikes ect r good.. but being only allowed to stay one night per camp site sucks ass.

my fav place is the Alpine National Forest just past Licola, which is a bit up from Sale...

the river has fish, you can light fires with plenty of wood available and also go hiking up the mountains..

it gets VERY cold in winter, you gotto go with snow gear, snow is literally several kms up the road...

best thing is it isnt that commercialised, especially in winter which happens to be my fav time for camping..

hey Khoa

A good place to go camping, I went earlier this year- was to Cape Liptrap which is reallly really far south in a desolate National park near the beach. Its so quiet and peaceful, nice beach, nice campsite which are sectioned off by heavy scrub, so you cant really see anyone else.

Its about a 2 1/2 hour drive, roads are totally empty and theres a 8 km gravel track to get the campsite. Plenty of wildlife when we went, Foxes, rabbits, Wombats, Koalas (hey you wont be alone :)), even maybe black panthers!!!

    • @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.
