Re: MKIV Supra VVTI now working
Steve, Are you finding that the pop near idle is happening when you remove your foot from the accelerator again ? Yes that's when it happens; if I blip the throttle at a standstill when the engine is idling (I should have included that important point) it's on the run-down when the pops occur. I on...

Re: Rockingham on 1st March
I picked up a roll cage camera mount from fast films but not had chance to try it yet. I'm going to keep my setup as hidden as possible, both for that 'stock' look and because some places (e.g. the 'Ring) don't like cameras. I'm going to have a setup similar to bignum eventually, but I'm going to m...

Re: MKIV Supra VVTI now working
...Now i found on your car that to keep it smooth around the slow moving speeds it was best to keep it out of idle mode as much as possible to stop the car from sudden jerking when entering idle mode and the ecu suddenly tries to pull the rpm down to 1000rpm. Aha that makes sense. Through trial &am...

Re: MKIV Supra VVTI now working
Mine doesnt do that, how do I get it like that :D Something to do with launch control maybe, at what revs do you get it? Just tiny blips that raise the revs to maybe 1500rpm. I think it's the still needs final honing drive-by-wire throttle bits that are causing it and the way the Solaris is current...

Re: Rockingham on 1st March
Yeah I'm hoping to get at least 1 camera and a PVR in the car between now & then. Bignum has a camera for me and I've got at least 2 weekends mostly free, so it shouldn't be too tricky.Wez wrote:Are you going to film it?

Re: MKIV Supra VVTI now working
Actually there is one weird thing happening; once I set off, if I drop into neutral or dip the clutch (e.g. coming up to a junction/set of lights on red) the car idles at 1600rpm until I drop below approx 3mph. What's that all about? As soon as I stop it drops to 1000rpm and stays there. I assume th...

Re: MKIV Supra VVTI now working
Steve See if you can delay the train abit :D or go for some nice breakfast in chesterfield, as Pat has kinda offered to go out in the car with you when first collecting the car and make sure everything is 100% since the firmware update. If you are there around 10am though you will catch him nice an...
