I'm fine up to the end of step 2a, but then I'm off by a different amount every time. Am I just doing it wrong?

You'll have to be a little more specific than that. What is off? By what amount?
Delay, frame and year. That's what I did. Sometimes you won't really find the exact set of IVs that you want.
I'm trying to find the calibration, but the delay I'm getting seems to be varying by up to 80 or so between attempts.
It really depends on you. Try to adjust your frame to 100 or something.
Unless you are very accurately pressing the buttons the delay will always vary. Delays are pretty much trial and error. 80 is quite alot though.
Also a tip to those that have access to AR codes. Using the IVMTRNG code you can verify if you hit your C-Gear seed. The value given by the code will always correspond to a certain C-Gear seed. Please note that you can't get your actual seed using the actual values from the code.
I use this as a form of calibration where I check if I hit the required seed on a random encounter and write down the corresponding money value as edited by the IVMTRNG code.
You have to write down the Money value before an encounter!
Once you know what money value the IVMTRNG code is supossed to return, you can use it to check if you've hit your seed.
p.s. you have that spread on seed 94ffaf25 (delay 9437), frame 30.
edit: and on aaffaa99 (delay 8273), frame 9! Search harder next time!
Cuz you're doing it wrong? >.<
You don't put the seed like that. What you're looking at through your Trainer Card is your MTIVRNG which is basically the Non C Gear seed. Which won't show up in the seeds to time window.
What are you trying to accomplish? Are you calibrating? Are you trying to hit a C-Gear seed?
The IVMTRNG check code will not give you your initial seed when using the C-Gear. To check your seed when C-Gear abusing you need to catch a Pokémon, and plug it's IV's into the Time Finder. You can't do this to verify before going for your actual capture however since the frame advances rapdily during battle. You can however do the following:
Calibrating so that I can hit a C gear seed. I don't have a sweet scenter so I wanted to use a code to see what seed I hit.
EDIT: Thanks TSK :).
Gotta catch a Pokemon than instead.
Ok thanks for the confimation. Someone told me that code would work for C-Gear seeds >_< .
A two stage timer (like Pikatimer) is very useful.
It does for when you're actually abusing for one. It's your conformation without catching anything.
Are shinies only possible again if you know your SID? So you again ned an AR?
What are the easiest Pokemon to RNG abuse for? Stationary Legends, wild Pokemon, Pokemon you have to breed...
Is there any step counter which checks how many steps you walked?

Emloop is a two stage timer...
Oh, than you may disregard my comment. It's been a while since I've even looked at emloop =s
I will next time. So, when I hit my seed; do I walk 128 steps with 5 pokemon in my party and then battle Victini?
Target - initial - starting = # of advancements?
9 - 3 - 1 = 5?
Corrected
Shininess in every generation has been determined through SID. It's not going to go away. So, yes. You'll need your SID. This doesn't require an AR, but it's probably the easiest for now.
