Well what can i say what a fantastic Wang weekend away. I haven’t had so much fun in a long time... Was great to see some new faces that i hadn't meet before not only from SAU but also from the WRX club... Massive thanx to the organisers of this weekend you guys did a fantastic job... Would also like to send out a HUGE thanx to Jarrod for letting me take his 32 for a quick burn was great.. And also to all the other guys who took me for a burn on the skid pan :mellow:..... Thanx Saff for driving me up there really appreciate it mate, and also thanx to Chris for dropping me home…

Im cooked red but to watch all competitors launching off from the Long wang was well worth it... Great to also see a few new timers getting out on the track and giving it all they could and doing a great job of it so well done to all those that for the first time and gave it a go...

I don’t have to say anything about last night other than Team Wang went hard and did us all proud... Thanx to Blaze for finding some Guinness couldn’t have a Wang weekend away with out some Wang Bangers :blink:.....

Hope everyone enjoyed themselves and look forward to seeing you all at the next event…..

Any comments about dinner?

Well another well organised SAU/WRX DECA day! Kudos to the people that organise these days and all the volunters that stood around ALL day making the day run smoothly. Everyones efforts are much appreciated.

Found it amusing that the first DECA day, no one seemed super keen and we only filled half the field (didn't bother us that turned up tho hehe) and this time, there weren't enough spots!!! Guess highlight videos of the days antics will always raise more interest :P

Looking forward to seeing the video and photos once the camera crews have sorted thru it all!

After 2 DECA days, I still haven't mastered how to stop the Titanic from spinning around, maybe I'll work it out on the next one....can't wait!

why do people take off there number plates  ?
insurance, warranty, police, *cough* company cars... etc
LOL :)
Cripes.  Anyone would think that Adz and I were just out to make smoke!!!

You weren't?

haha, when I was behind you, you really confused me when you signalled left but went right

What a weekend!!

thanks for the awesome weekend guys, had an absolute blast.

Thanks to all who were so welcoming to Justine and myself, couldn't have had a better day!

oh, and can't wait till you get those pics up Joel, I'm dying to see them

Dane

(widebody 180)

was told to look at pics buy sammus....all i can say is damn i wish we had events like this in canberra. you should all cruise up for summernats like al (i think it was al) did last year...mmm massive cruise

damn nice cars!

Yep, that was me.

Will most probably not be going to Summernats '06, as there is another event in Phillip Island, at the same time :P.

But the committee has lightly discussed the idea of holding a National cruise/event in Canberra. Hopefully it will come together and various states will participate.

    • I saw you mention this earlier and it raised a red flag, but I couldn't believe it was real. Yes, the vacuum signal should vary. It is the one and only load signal from the engine to the ECU, and it MUST vary. It is either not connected or is badly f**ked up in some way.
    • @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.
