All.

Its with regret i announce Bass Junky - Pete has stepped off committee due to work & family.

This is mainly his job which is evermore demanding each month and seeing him with less time each month to pursue other things as he is flying around the country (and to NZ) almost daily.

I would like to thank Pete for the work done so far this year, been a great help and the latest newsletter will be out in a week or two.

He will be missed, but not too far away :(

His replacement is PaulR33 - Paul

Paul has been in & around committee since the clubs formation so he's up to speed with what needs doing and should add great value once again.

He'll be looking after the newsletter and so on that Pete leaves us :D

Also - we are looking for another person to join committee and work with Paul on getting the newsletter out.

We have a fixed template and use InDesign (have a copy on CD for whomever). So you might be involved in creating/formatting the newsletter, or perhaps writing and attaining articles for the newsletter if thats what your drive is.

The exact tasks can be discussed - but if you are interested in giving SAU-Vic some of your free time each month, im sure members would appreciate it.

If you think you have what it takes, drop me an email

Thanks

Ash

SAU-Vic President

Hey ppls,

Thanks for your kind words Ash.

There comes a time when we all must give away some of the things that we enjoy doing to focus on "The Big Picture"

My work is taking me to many and varied locations around the region and my schedule leaves me very little time outside of my family committments to pursue my passion for all things automotive.

So much so that I'm also selling my car, as it's simply being used as a daily driver at the moment and going to waste. It should be in the hands of somebody who is going to give it the lifestyle if deserves.

The same is true for the newsletter. It needs to be put together by somebody who can attend the meetings, go on the cruises and be more active in the club than I can be at the moment.

Paul, I wish you luck with your new charge, if you need any help, don't hesitate to ask, I'm always around to give people a hand.

This is making me all sad now.

:'(

    • Duh... to answer my own silly question, it's actually described in the FSM... ...400 pages away at the end of the manual, for RB25DE/DET signal descriptions, it cites the TPSwitch signal action, is dependent on the TPSensor value ~ this tends to infer the builtin POT voltage signal is the primary, and the switches are fallback/secondary should the POT fail/TPSensor signal lost (and switch alone with no TPSensor signal allows for base idle speed setting).... makes sense... they (TPS units) used to fail/wear the POT with time, they're not exactly built to last ~ having the switch as a redundancy gets around this...(or, it's less likely both signals would be lost as they're on different power rails)... and of course wrt RB26DETT, you have to electrically disconnect the IACV solenoid from the harness, to defeat idle air control...  
    • Dose is unaware just how much fun 145-150kw would be in a 2.5L NC MX5. It would be one of the most fun things to drive to ever grace SAU.
    • Same thought crossed my mind ~ depends on how one connotes 'stalling'...ie; gets a rough/stumbling idle as it get warm until it stalls... or... idles ok and simply falls-over when it gets to temp... ...you can test the whole circuit with a couple of resistors ...unplug coolant temp sensor, bridge terminals with a 2K7 resistor (ECU will do cold start), or with engine warm bridge with a 330R resistor (ECU will consider engine to be at normal operating temp)...it's a quick way to check wiring integrity/ECU response when you don't have a multimeter handy ...
    • They also make them with the motor mounted on the side 
    • Just be warned that that turbo will not be a direct re-fit to the car. The exhaust housing is, of course, in the same place. It has to be - it's bolted to the exhaust manifold. So the dump will fit up. But the centre housing is not as long, so the comp housing will move backwards. This will affect both the turbo inlet and the outlet. There is fab work that needs to be done. Yes. it has one, it should have one. Paper gasket.
