Mr.Msquito

Chuck a dyno sheet up Andrew

sad sight jimmy, was a nice car back in its day

^^ was just a bretho ozzy. told him he needs to change over to nt rego also

No worries, it's at Cg's performance works so just give me a call an I can meet you down there one arvo if u want, my number is 0439504488

I wonder if that spare tail shaft I have will fit. I was told it was from a r32

welcome to alice. what have you got done to your r32?

yeah, bit of bad luck but he did get caught with a photo. alice really need a track so we can get off the streets. drag racing is ok but we really need a race track.

with a spray of satin black the front bar will look 100 times better than the other thing i had on there. not sure if i should do the doors aswel tho

^^^^ sucks, but i suppose you gotta expect things like that when its someone else's project first. my car is looking more mismatched than ever....... but i think it has a nice drift pig look to it i might have to get out the spray can to match some panels up lol

Sounds like an interesting weekend for everyone. Heard of some good times which means the track must be improving alot from when it was first opened

pissed off no, annoyed that other people think that they know everything and are always right yes. i havent payed for stuff all to be done to my car. Just about everything done to my car has been done by me. sure i might have had help from carmelo at times but i replaced my engine by myself, swapped my turbo multiple times, done my clutch along with lots of other stuff. like you said practice is better than theory and im learning along the way./ i have been to a few tuners in adelaide along with dallas here so its not like its something totaly new to me. i think you need to read what you have been saying yourself and realise all i originally said is that i want dr.drift to come here and tune my car and i dont want a powerfc. $900 for a tune is to much for what i need for my car. all i need is a fine tune to adjust the AFR and that should be about it. thats the good thing with keeping all factory sensors anyway i dont care anymore because your not going to listen to what im saying or my opinion

i never said i knew everything at all...... i said that i prefer the nistune over a powerfc for my setup and that i didnt want my car tuned by dallas from past experiences i have had with him in my integra. if you have nothing against dr.drift then why all the fuss? Dr.Drift is busy and will be here as soon as he gets the time to. yes he was supposed to come up around this time but had family things to attend to. the other times before that it was talked about but because i was organising it with him to tune my car and it wasnt ready so we put it off. i dont claim to know how to tune a car at all but i know enough to make my own mind up about what ecu will suit my application and what wont. i have done hours of reading on what engine managments are out there and i chose nistune because it keeps all the factory sensors and has all the aircon idle loops and what not already on it. Just because i dont have 2 gtr's in my shed doesnt mean i dont know how things work. we're not all made of money like some so cant spend $1000+ on a powerfc when for half the price we get something equally as good. you dont need to pay $900 for a touch up tune on a lightly modded car.

i do not want to get dallas to tune anything of mine. im not sure if he has gotten better but i know of a few cars that have had issues after being tuned by dallas. I had my integra tuned by him and it was always going back for something at some stage. it would not cold start easily and used way too much fuel let alone the problems i had with vtec engaging ect ect. that has left a sour taste in my mouth in regards to his tuning. Dr.Drift will be here once he gets back from his darwin trip and sorts out a couple cars in his workshop. i was on the phone to him today and he has looked at flights and spoken to dallas. $800 for a tune is far to much as most cars in this town already have tunes but just need adjusting. If you arnt going to get anything done by dr.drift or make an attempt to get a decent tuner into alice springs then why bother going on about it?? if you can tune your own car then congratulations to you but there are other cars here that would like to get dr.drift into town. dr.drift has an excellent reputation on nissansilvia.com and his customers stand by him so thats good enough for me. **edited cause i cant spell**

well get him here to do some tunes im in, andrew will be in, martin(silver r33) will be in. there is 3 straight up. aslong as he can do nistune i'll be happy.

and anyway im not here to argue about what ecu is best. i think both have their place in the car world. if i had the money i would have an apexi pfc but it doesnt matter. the nistune will do what i need it to do. on another note i have some new rims on the way

the hype is that he can tune a wide variety of cars and has agreed to come here. if you can get someone else into town to tune my car before dr.drift gets here then im keen for that. and as for engine inf you can get the nistune software on a laptop and run it in your car if you want to see knock levels and what not if thats what you wanna do. im not looking for a hardcore car that is modded of its head. just a few simple mods and thats it

dr.drift is a workshop and the owner tuner who started it is called sam, ie dr.drift. the newer nistune or whatever dr.drift uses have a daughter board and allow live tuning from a laptop with out burning multiple chips. there are cars running around with 300kw out of a chiped ecu without the need to go for a powerfc. in my opinion a power fc is only needed if you are going to go a de-jetro setup with no afm. my aim for the car is a responsive 230kw at max

yeah i need dr.drift to tune it as its a nistune chip. he will be here september if all goes to plan

the weekend was good with lots of good races, carmelo was running strong all day after the snapped axle. i had my car on the dyno the other day to see how the afr are so here is the dyno sheet....... its running at 10:2 AFR so it really rich but should be getting that sorted when dr.drift comes up. i am pulling this turbo off soon to send back and be updated to a more responsive turbo

looks like it was a good day, that enhanced ute looked pretty quick

wat times did every one run?

lol, ghan pans are slippery today

nathans car was pretty good.... pity i couldnt get out there to race but hopefully soon i can. i got a few pics of ppl coming back down the return lane, i'll post the best ones up tomorrow or something

yep i got one. i'll bring it out in the morning

sure has been along time coming. nice results too
