  1. yes its a an on off operation.. i dont know how the variable vct rumour started.... if you run piggy back... then the stock ECu should be used to control the VCT.. how come it was disconnected in the first place?
  2. its a simple on off type
  3. the tial gates are threaded so you can put whatever fitting you like in there. EDIT: looks like it comes with two -4 AN fittings. it is fairly small i guess you may be able to change that to -6 in same thread. not sure what the point in water cooled gate is tho... would be benificial on a race car but not on a street car. you dont have to run them watercooled either. http://www.tialsport.com/prod_wg_mvr.htm
  4. set it at 15 and then get the tuner to set to 20. cant go wrong with that
  5. yup.. thats it
  6. pretty sure you can daisy chain it up with the turbo water system. both are going to get hot regardless so it would be pointless having two lots of feed and return lines.
  7. a lot of missinformation in that thread. the compression ratio is the same between the neo and older rb25's. turbo is different. head has solid lifters and different cams. intake manifold is a better design. rods are suppose to be GTR rods.. but ive never yet had that confirmed. pistons are the same as is the block.
  8. neo rb25, 1.4 bar boost, 330 rwkw stock internals. Car is drifted and hard. cops a regular thrashing and goes well. support systems are spot on, does not overheat oil or water at all, tune is spot on and i run BP98 + 20% methanol mix. am planning to bring the peak boost back down a bit tho. my gate was too small and with cams it cant flow enough out. have now upgraded to larger gate so will retune it and reduce the boost and put some more timing back in so shouldnt lose any power.
  9. Tailem Bend... a riverside town about an hour and a half out of Adelaide on the Dukes highway on the way to melb. bit of a hike but at least its another track for use in SA... heres a pic of the track
  10. had a track testing day with myself and a mate for stadium drift which is coming to SA.. just trying different layouts and having some fun. was great having a whole track to yourself http://vimeo.com/12820112 and the layout we decided on in the end. http://vimeo.com/12819241
  11. no, that was the all type crash trailer that i used when i had a blow out.. its what i normally use but as both hayden and i were driving on thurs i needed to hire one so i went with the mad auto ones.. decent trailers.. like i said,. brand new. in fact i was the first car on the trailer i hired. think if u hire 5 times the 6th hire is 35 bucks or something.
  12. if anyone is interested in becoming a team member and helping out on the day + other stadium drift events let me know.. you get rewarded for your efforts and get to be a part of a cool event. send me a PM or shoot an email thro to me on [email protected]
  13. If mattys booked theres a new mob in town who has cheap trailers.. i used one the other day and they are brand new, and 50 a day. cheap as! Mad Automotive Trailer Hire
  14. HUGE THANKS to Simon, Paul, Hayden, Stewy & the rest of the crew who came out thursday & assisted with a test day to sort out a "STADIUM DRIFT" track layout awesome job guys with some very positive suggestions from a group of well informed drifters, with an entry speed of around 160k & ALL THE ACTION only meters from the crowd i am very confident we will have a venue to rival our best tracks incl Stanthorpe etc. FINALLY after several mths of working with the management of this new venue we are able to now provide the SA drifters with more info on this action packed form of drifting & start moving forward with planning for the rest of 2010 & sorting out the details for our PRO TOUR "SOUTH EAST" (VIC & SA) for 2011 which will be in addition to our current "PRO TOUR CHAMPIONSHIP SERIES" run over tracks in NSW & QLD The plan is then to hold an "ALL STARS" GRAND FINAL which will combine both tours in nov 2011 which would then provide us with an AUST GRAND CHAMPION The first event will be as per details in the first post & as stated if you are uncertain which catagory to enter our officials will seed you on the day, the aim is to duplicate the tried & proven formula we have established over the past 3 years & have a PRO catagory with 24 cars + a Level 2 catagory with 24 cars & a Street catagory or 16 cars (use the term "street"loosley its for the non sponsored newbies in their street rides, its an entry class) All the STADIUM DRIFT comps are run on a round robin system, which means you dont get eliminated after 1 bad run, you get 4 battles (8 laps) which are judged with the top 4 points scorers going to a shootout final, the program then moves to a "BIG ENTRY" comp followed to an Expression session & Drift Train ALL will be explained at the august 28 event, so please save your questions until then, one of our most experienced pro drivers Josh Young will be available at that event to clarify the comp format. There will be at least 2 further STADIUM DRIFT full comps run at this venue before dec, i will advise the dates as soon as they are confirmed. ALL INFO RE ENTRIES, CONDITIONDS, LICENCES, SCRUTINEERING ETC will be posted on our websites within the next 5 days. DRIVERS WISHING TO GO ON OUR MAILING LIST FOR MEMBERSHIP & INFO PLEASE EMAIL TO [email protected] with your name, postal address & mob no www.racelineevents.com www.stadiumdrift.com (please note this site is undergoing a revamp)
  15. yeah but its E85... its prob too rich at start up
  16. A brand new thing for SA... this will be an awesome event! i was involved in doing some testing of layouts and we've come up with a cracker that has best of everything. best thing is its close to spectators and promises some close door to door action. Heres a few vids from the day Testing various layouts On car footage at the end is the one used for comp This is the layout used. heres the run down RACELINE / STADIUM DRIFT BACK IN SA "DAY of DRIFT" -- SOUTH AUST-----SAT AUG 28 MOTORSPORTS PARK----TAILEM BEND Our objective is to establish 3 STADIUM DRIFT catagories in SA along the same lines as Qld, that is a PRO catagory a Level 2 catagory + a "STREET LEGAL" catagory (note i use the term street legal loosely) its really a newbie class/ feeder catagory to give new guys a starting point, some drivers will know which catagory they fit however if need be we can seed them on the day. The first event will be run on sat Aug 28, gates will open at 9am with the first car due on track at 10am, the format will be battles, tandems, solo & tandem runs for newbies until midday, then we will run some sponsor/passenger laps followed by a (fun) comp for our 3 catagories with trophies for the winners. The day will finish with a 1 hr expression session. Entry forms & posters for this are now being prepared. The plan for this first event is to give all the drivers a chance to see how we operate as well as get heaps of laps on this new track & also try out a couple of different track layouts. If all gels at the first event we will run a further 2 full comps at this venue prior to dec. These comps would be a duplicate of our PRO TOUR events It looks like STADIUM DRIFT will finally get moving forward in SA after 2 1/2 yrs of frustration with other venues, so its now all positive, all we need for these fun events is the drivers support. FOR EVENT ENTRIES & INFO PLEASE email [email protected] (please send your postal address & mob no.) Thanks Ian www.racelineevents.com www.stadiumdrift.com Ph---07 55 378255
  17. i would have thought to achieve better cold start you'd want to lean it off a fair bit. how many tuners spend enough time on the cold start map anyway... the answer is not enough.
  18. thanks mate, im looking forward to the beast your building also
  19. Selling my near new (less then 50kms driving) tial 38mm gate. its too small for my setup now that i have cams. still controlled boost just fine to 320 rwkw but with stock cams on an RB25... would suit anything under this sort of power levels. Has a 1.1 bar spring i believe. Price $300 firm. can post anywhere. PM me or sms 0412 938 933
  20. Track Testing at Tailem Bend Stadium Drift Layout test
  21. haha yeah the delica does alright! tows well and carries 5 ppl comfortably with luggage room. tad thirsty but thats to be expected
  22. if someone wants to mail me an SAU sticker i'll happily run some. or maybe i should hit HESLO up since im doing his 33 GTR headgasket atm haha. yeah that red ke was a bit of a suprise for me... i know i woulodnt have paid 40 for a ride. not sure how the isc guy got into giving rides but i know his car was a bit f**ked after his tie rod snapped and they welded it back together,... wheel alignmentr wouldnt have been the best after that
