I'll be there a bit early to get the fire going :-) - as anyone who went last time knows, I like fires.... (any comment muck?:))

So if you see a bayside blue series 2 you'll know you're in the right place. Mind you, if it is pissing down with rain, or 40C I won't be coming.. :-(

hahahaha... its a no go zone.. when ians setting up his fire....

hah... i was planning to see you tomorrow ian... hah.. but it could be a bit hot for you!! i want to laugh at your dodgy programming again!

Not to hot for me, I like the heat! And the house will be at 22.5C regardless of the outdoor temperature anyway...

Yep, I may have already found out what the problem was, but do need a sereis 1 stagea to test it on (works fine on my series 2). For those who weren't at the last melbourne get together - I brought my laptop along and tried it on all the cars. We had problems downloading the entire ROM with the series 1 stagea - my program was getting errors (as were other peoples program ie datascan was just hanging (as it does on about half the cars I try it on)).

I think I've figured out what it was, and we are now getting rom downloads out of cars that nobody has ever been able to download from before... :-)

I'll bring it along in two weeks as well - people can take it for a drive around the block and when they come back we can watch what they did without having to be in the car with them in the first place.... :-)

The problem was that we were scattered all around the different car parks (the park was packed with some big event). So not sure if anyone took pics..

And there was all that spare parking space at the SAU BBQ on the same day!?!

You guys are on here - why the fragmentation on the streets??

OK I know its spelt STAGEA not Skyline, - BUT??

I only ask cause it looks like Turbine (son) is gonna get one and I dont want to have to be trying to cover multiple meets on the same day.

sauvic bbq was for existing and renewing members only (sorta like a "thanks for the support" thing). I don't think any of the melb stagea owners are SAU VIC members, so they couldn't have checked the members section where the BBQ was announced a month ago. I think Alex was the only one who had access, but I think he found out about it a little too late.

seeing as craig whipped skyline arse in his N/A Hyundai Lantra Wagon last time, and there's a few liberty wagons attending this time... you guys should come to the DECA motorkhana day.

    • 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.  
    • 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.
