What Have You Done To Your Stagea Lately?

[bigkevracer]

lol that would be more likely!

We're taking 4 total. Guys in the back were complaining they couldn't watch DVDs, and for the cost of these headrests I figured it was worthwhile.

Robbie has 5 going over I think, want to hope it's not all in the one car. I know he's taking a Caprice over instead of the Stag.

I've got 6 coming, 4 in the caprice, 2 in either an rx8 or a b2200 ute running a 13b turbs.

It's only costing me $20 a day to have the leathered out, DVD playing, spacious 6 liter caprice, so I figure why not, use someone else tyres and spend alot less in fuel too.

I have a better story... the two headrest monitors I ordered on eBay Sunday turned up today... FROM HONG KONG!

They look great, two 9" monitors with zip up covers to hide them from prying eyes. Can't wait till Brad and I get them installed Sunday.

Which ones did you get?

Made an offer of $200, which was accepted almost straight away. You can get cheaper ones, but I didn't want vinyl headrests to go with my cloth seats

IMO... I would not do the DVD head rest again but just use a hard drive or Ipod/Iphone for movies.

The DVD plays are good to start but 2 years on my son complains about the disc jumping on less than smooth roads.

didnt think of that. i guess with the AV inputs you can basically plug anything into it.

[bigkevracer]

Funny, mine seems to have started skipping recently. Need to do more testing to check what it is.

People still use DVD's these days?

[zei20l]

MKV FTW!!

[bigkevracer]

I'd get an in car Blu-ray player if I could, got heaps of those too!

[zei20l]

i think the drive would have problems reading the disc in a car unless it was specifically a 'mobile' model. assuming one was available

lol sorry

back ON topic. the exhaust is settling in. the ECU runs rich for a few seconds after backing off and now it pops when the exhaust is hot

Did anyone with an intake notice that they ran particularly rich when backing off? Before the e-manage tune of course.

I've tuned mine so the AFR's are good at light to medium loads (runs really nice actually), but when I lift off after accelerating, the AFR's start to go lean (as they should when coasting) but then go full rich (10:1 on my display) for a few seconds which causes a heap of smoke out the back.

I can post pics of log graphs if it will help, but it really just displays what I said (I hope ). I'm thinking of returning the intake to stock to confirm the problem goes away and then get some graphs to compare with the new ones, but that will require some work...

As an aside, I don't know if anyone else has seen this, but it appears to me that the standard ECU has another map that it refers to after a certain rate of acceleration (or throttle application) occurs. I found this out because my AFRs remained essentially unchanged at the top end regardless of what I did to the AFM signal at those load points. It is like it ignores the AFM signal & does it's own thing.
