What is going on with the forums on SDU?

Prank, meggala, any news on forming an Aus chapter of SDU?

Damn there's alot of tension on those forums at the moment. It's almost comical. That's one of the bad things about communicating through written messages. Some people tend to take it the wrong way and before you know it you have a mess on your hands. People need to chill more. :mrgreen:

My philosophy is;

"if it's written on an anonymous bulletin board then it's all to be taken with a grain of salt",

in other words, it's probably crap so why get worked up...

Some people take it WAAAYY too seriously.

I think ph said the kiwis locked it to let everyone cool down.

Pretty damned good idea if they did lock it up. It was getting a bit out of hand ay. I was on it yesterday morning just before it went off-line and things were getting worse.

I joined just over a week before all this happened and I was having a ball. Couldn't wait to get on it every night, stayed up most nights and even got into trouble at work 'cause I was on it. My gf was teasing me, calling me an addict but I was genuinely having fun. Everyone seemed friendly and I learned heaps which is always a bonus. It changed very quickly though which is a shame.

Sorry to say but I think alot of Aussies were whinging too much though. Just get on with it, it's not the end of the world.

Bah, SDU has gone downhill. The moderators picked on me about shit ( i used to use the name OPL33Z ) about posting crap, i used to post heaps but not lately. They banned me without warning and i'm sure you all know the story anyway. Oh well over it. At least now we have a new board, let's hope it gets more popular and doesn't get abused. Let's also hope we don't get idiot moderators like some on SDU.

Thanks Christian for settin up this board, hopefully it will help us all kill some boredom :P

Cheers,

Ryan

Thanks Guys!!

Hopefully these forums will take off with the AUS car owners... Its not intended as a substitute for SDU, just more as an Australian based forums. Unfortunately, they can't be as big as SDU as I prolly can't afford it, but lets just see how it goes.

ENJOY!! :P

Guys, Ihad no idea there was and tention at SDU, pity really...

ONARUN, SVD's in limbo at the moment, there's still two upcoming cruises though, wakefield park on the 28th and then Bathurst on the 18th of next month.

Prank, Do you know of anyone that has any digital photos of my re-union with the rock? My car's sitting at the crash repairer so I have plenty of time to hone my cornering technique on GT2. :P

    • Hi all, considering clutch upgrade to support 1130 engine hp from 1650cc injectors on e50 at 85% duty cycle (1650 x (11.85/14.7) x 85%). Narrows down to these three as they can be converted to use gm 26 spline input shaft if I ever want to use transmission with that input shaft (orc1000f and r3c easy/cheap just change center hub; tr2cd pricier must change clutch discs). Pricing orc1000f similar to tr2cd, r3c about usd 200 pricier. Orc1000f triple plate 200mm. Tr2cd twin plate 215mm. R3c triple plate 215mm. Claimed max torque : orc 1000f 723 lbs ft; tr2cd 800 lbs ft; r3c 1100 lbs ft. Why orc1000f triple plate but claims lower max torque vs tr2cd twins? Is orc1000f underrated? Any info maxing out these clutches? Info on street/traffic driveability/pedal feel? Thank you for any info on them.
    • Some troubleshooting, connect up a timing light/gun with a proper ignition lead on coil 1. Hold the revs at 4~4500rpm and see if your timing is all over the shop, scattering off its tits. If so, there's a high chance your CAS is fked. But I read you have a Link ECU ready to go in, why not just skip all this and put that in - will make troubleshooting so much easier.  
    • Misfires when the car is fully warm are generally attributed to the coils (and/or the igniter, on cars with a separate igniter). They can stop working properly when they get hot for a number of reasons. Either electric/electronic, or from thermal expansion opening up gaps and allowing HV leakage. Seeing as you have replaced the coils, that could/should rule them out. But I wouldn't always assume so. Were the coils genuine? Or is there a chance you have bought some counterfeit Chinesium shit? Then we're back onto loom connections. They can fail when warm/hot for the same reasons. Inspections, cleaning of contact surfaces, ensuring that terminals are fully inserted, etc etc, are all justified. The same (heat effects) holds true for the other electrics and their connectors. AFM & CAS, primarily. If you try that Chinesium AFM, drive it around on low load until it is properly hot, but do'nt give it more load than you have to, except when you need to see if it will still miss. I'm dead serious about the untrustworthiness of the calibration of those copy AFMs. Injectors are unlikely to get hot unless the fuel is coming back around hot. You could try squirting them with compressed air or freeze spray to cool them back down to see if they are maybe the cause.
    • Alright, all the plugs looks good. Noticed that it starts to get bad when the car is up to temp, that's when things starts to misfire hard. next to do is Injector cleaning and such. Got in touch with a shop to do work on the injectors next Monday also help on diagnosis.
