Bit cold n wet on the steps today, and really busy. Two guys doing 50 laps over two days for charity.

I hope the section of lyre bird at the top that they've done isn't the finished product, the steps are only wide enough for one person.

Not yet, but you can see a section of it when you reach the top of the steps. The main track to the base of the steps is closed and you have to take rambler's which is nice and muddy.

I havent been there lately as the weather on the weekends has been shit. And ive been sick the past week while its been nice so that sucks but ill probably be there on sunday arvo if the weather holds out. I took some time off them and my other training so now every time i run up i nearly vomit lol

Did 1000 steps yesterday. It's a lot better during the week days. Can actually get a car park!!! Also not many people :D

The works are still going on, the notice says it'll be ready by early 2013. Can't wait for them to finish up the Lyrebird Track with the new steps. The new memorial thing looks pretty cool, I can see them holding events there a lot easier with a podium :D

Weather is great again, who's up for 1000 steps soon?

    • Dunno what to tell you, when I look at it on Consult I can see this warmup timing map kicking in around 40C coolant temp and it sticks around for a while:  At part throttle on the normal base timing map it peaks around ~43 degrees of timing or something like that, this warmup timing map drops it to like 12-15 degrees. 
    • I don't think that's what you're seeing. Something else doing that. The only time I've seen it get so retarded is when it's trying to control idle (in which case we're not talking about mapped timing tagets anyway) and when there is an extreme coolant temperature sensor fault. The RB26 ECU is essentially the same as the 20 ECU and I knew that ging inside out. There is no facility for it to retard that heavily on cold start. The OEMs never used to do it back then. I mean, shit, the catalyst is abotu 3 miles down the exhaust anyway. Early light-off was just a twinkle in some EPA arsehole's eye back then, not a regular engine control strategy.
    • I must preface my comments with a general expression of ignorance. I have no specific knowledge of these NA automtaic things. I can only assume that the "steering wheel button" is for enabling the tiptronic controls. Wierd that it would even need/want a button for that... But anyway.... Was the car previously tiptronic? Did you put a new cluster in as part of all this?
    • Regardless, it doesn't seem wise especially on RBs to actually chase MBT. Timing scatter is the big one on stock CAS, even if that's fixed overshoot is worse than undershoot. 
    • It's all about reducing the overall output. Reduce the source of it, you have wayyyy less to deal with in every other step and trick you play with. It's why something like a modern vehicle, so VW, Audi etc, there's thousands of tables for the ECU to calculate what it should be doing with the engine.   Why would you NOT reduce emissions the most effective way possible, when it has very minimal tradeoff, AND manufacturers are always struggling to meet the current standards.
