More misinformation man...

I can change my RacePace tune myself and have done so...while driving out on the road. You can mess with the fuel cells if you really want to. You say a laptop is better...great...I have that with the PFC, I can data log and tune with it why are you saying you can't? Besides that, no, I haven't actually had a strange miss...my tune is awesome cause I paid a professional to set it up for me.

My car feels like a factory tune, perfectly so. It's what I paid Chris to do for me.

You're going OCD on ECUs and blaming the PFC for having shortcomings it doesn't actually have.

I'm saying I use the features things better than the PFC have. Your tune "feels" right but there's no way you can perfectly setup a car in a few hours, ever. You can get 90% which is good enough for 99.9% of situations, but not 100%. I change fuel cells all the time (well not all the time, but certainly have in the past after changes are made, on a different mixture of 98/e85 which wasn't done on the dyno, etc.)

How are you gonna know if an injector is slightly failing? Fuel pump is starting to let go? Fuel filter is clogged? You may not care but I sure do and I have that ability. You won't know till you melt a piston. Maybe your components will never fail. Run 2 pumps and ONE dies? Oil temp too high, water temp too high when you're out on track and not *really* looking at Gauges because looking elsewhere? Oil pressure starting to get a bit thin at high RPM? etc.

Logging is great, but automatic logging to the device AFTER the thing you wanted to log has already happened (i.e, don't have to turn on logging first and then go test something) is a godsend.

The powerFC enables you to change fuel maps and timing to allow for mods. For a setup like yours Birds, it's enough, and it does what it does, well. But once you use more than that or think "that'd be useful..." you would never go back to one.

All three men are perceived to be of African appearance.Their car appeared to be lowered and sounded as though it had a turbo engine.

Where you putting it in storage? Anywhere I can slot in a car? Will pay monies

you know russman? he got storage in ringwood. dont cost much. 

 

 

 

lowered and turbo engine? racist.

oh, falcon G6E turbo........ unpatriotic

Birds, Moh and Borci all got GTR's.... odie, greg, johnno, pat all got skylines. only one evo around, and its pretty much for sale. 

Balance has been brought to VWL. now just need balance to return to oil prices.

 

Birds, use 88E profits to make your GTR look better (offsets arent the strongest, but dat dish. also a bargain for classic 5 spoke wheels. mental money for OZ or Koenings):

were like the A team, But really gay and soft.


we should do a vwl bbq, seriously.
my mate rogercordia will come too

 

I'm not certain that kinkstah is the same guy who's car is never on the road, and when it is, something dies or is about to die... What I am certain of is that there is a thread somewhere on this forum, dedicated specifically for people to discuss their cars more than they drive them.

Go there

Birds brah, https://csgosquad.com/ranks 

We need 3 more for VWL cs:go team, who is 'the l337 pwn3rs' here? 

Yeah I've seen that rank distribution. It's garbage tho, proved that last night top fragging deathmatch even if you weren't trying. Will create a smurf account either for you to level up or for you to play in my rank and help boost lol

Respawn LAN end of October. Form a 5 man team. I can shoot things but I'm useless compared to the veterans.
Need to reclaim my title on Wreckfest and asetta corsa.


My friend has started a website for oz teams looking for members: www.rekruitable.com

Already have rarish wheels sorted, a mate is holding onto them for me...no point buying until car is done.

88E profits have gone into house savings. Bout time I grew up and bought one lol

    • It's about the same time for me from Bunnings, or the Fasteners. My big push away from takeaway food, and gluten in general keeps me away from the Bunnings Snags too! Weather up here, I've been out for two walks today in the beautiful sunshine. Had a few little drizzles, and some wind, that honestly, a tin of beans and I could compete on how harsh she blows Thankfully, being this bit inland, we're not getting anything much really. Will probably pick up a bit more when/if Cyclone Alfie decides to come ashore. A few areas in the GC though, and south into NSW are really getting smashed though! Right now, I'm just annoyed Alfie hasn't hit, as I'm not allowed to crack into the BBQ foods like the bacon and eggs until the Cyclone hits "In case we lose power"...
    • I love fastener joints, the price difference between them and joints like Bunnings or Super Cheap is amazing, and they either have exactly what you want, or they can get it to quick They have even given me some for free when I only needed a couple of specific size In saying this, I have paid premium for fasteners from Bunnings if they have the sizes I need, but only for convenience really, as my local is only 10 minutes away, the Sushi joint near them is also a consideration  How's the weather Matt? Stay safe mate
    • Wideband is worth setting up if only for tuning purposes. I would not mess with the ignition system unless there's a misfire. HKS crank trigger is popular out here for the relatively easily sourced Denso crank sensor, not a bad idea to install as well regardless of power level on a standalone. Boost leak test is worth thinking about. Oil pressure sensor tied to a fuel cut isn't a bad idea either. Getting the tune figured out is a good idea. Without putting eyes on it and getting under it there's no way for us to tell you exactly what it needs but most likely you're down to the last 10% that will make a big, big difference in how happy you are with the car.
    • Doing a refresh of my 33 and can see a few websites stating they sell the entire main carpet for our cars, but they all have generic photos which is fine, i understand they are custom made to order.  Just seeing if anyone has got it done or had any experience with this, as i would only want to do it if the fit and finish was as good as oem https://carmatsdirect.com.au/products/moulded-carpet-or-vinyl-for-nissan-skyline-r33-1993-1998-coupe https://knoxautocarpets.com.au/moulded-carpets/nissan/skyline/skyline-r-33-1993-1998/
    • Any plans for E85? If so, add flex fuel sensor.   I'd probably add in the sensors I mentioned above if the Link will support using them for engine protection. With water pressure, you need to be able to effectively set it that "If temp > X, and pressure = atmospheric, shutdown" as at running temp, you should be able to read pressure in the cooling system. If pressure suddenly disappears, it means the water went some where, and this is a quicker reaction than waiting on water temp to go up (Which, can take a little longer than you'd like, considering it now has to wait for hot air to heat it up) Oil pressure, Oil temp, both would be on my list too if you're looking to add sensors. Wideband O2. And at least one EGT sensor. If you're feeling deluxe, put in individual runner EGTs. Single EGT sensor is more so forget about a specific number, get used to "What is normal EGTs", and then keep an eye on it, if it starts going away from "normal" it's a sign something is wrong (Also, things like the tune can still start going out of spec, but EGTs may not show it, for example one injector starts running leaning, so ECU richens everything up, now 5 out of 6 cylinders are rich, and running cool, with one cylinder lean and running hotter, so it's not perfect) Then there is your other things to look at non sensor related, but you may have already done, or have underway, and that would be things like building a sump for more oil, and better oil control under high G-Forces (Cornering, brakes, acceleration). Basically, the above is worth looking/thinking about, if the ECU can do protective stuff with it, and you continue to use it how you are (Drive it to the track, thrash it, drive home, repeat once every 3 to 4 months)
