good day boys. i was impressed to be able to hustle the stock GTST around quite respectably. It was bone stock bar a cat back exhaust and a pod, still running stock boost and of course handicapped with falken ziex FK326 i scrapped my way around the track with no brakes and no power! haha good fun.

my thanks go to:

Nathan, for not being able to turn up. but still sorry you couldnt make it.

John for the tools

Adam for organising, and helping with my suspension change

Neil for never missing an opportunity to give me some shit (you old fart), and for brining us all numbers, and for kindly letting me borrow your tools.

Dan for being chief mechanic, he is a top spanner spinner and the price is right.

Pete for doing f**k all.

and to all the SAU guys for volunteering:

sorry if there were more, i just didnt see you/know you but thanks too :D

i was actually proud that we had so many flag marshalls coming from out club. and that none of them meatballed me either for passing, being sideways or scarping, iinstead just choosing to bitch about it on the radio! lol.

top day, but i was a bit dissapointed that it didnt rain in the arvo. i was looking forward to that.

I guess everyone was right about me going faster in the arvo.

1:24.379 WOOT!!!!!!

Hey Guys,

Just wanted to jump on here to send a special thanks to all the guys that flaggied and helped make today the great day it was. they dont happen without you.

cheers

Andrew

And thank you. I was planning on making a post on forum thread but I can't get in anymore.

oh yeah, your car sounded just bloody awesome primordial too bad about the fuel filler, would've love to hear that car going around a couple more laps. Next time I hope my car will be ready for the track

thanks mate.. a few people said that it was sounding good actually. sweet!

hope to see you out there on the next one.. trust me, as some have been saying, its highly addictive! maybe try cocaine instead, you would have a better chance getting off that :D

Doodz! No photos? You promised. Who else has some?

Well anyway I had a great time and I don't think I was alone there.

Good to see so many newbies out there. Are you hooked yet?

Nah :( The vid camera I was able to get didnt work when I got it yesterday nite :(.

Yea hooked :D Im gonna bring car next time and put on track :D Boost controller going in tomorow!

Oh and those of you who where on the CB great entertainment, when nothing exciting was happening on the track. Great CB wh0ring :D:D

time to get myself a cb radio and start WHORING!!!!

best quote of the day would have to be

"car number XX temporarily lost traction for 7 consecutive corners"

Edited by lingeringsoul
It's 12:42am and I've just gotten home. Working on getting the pics up.

What happened Toulio - did you have to walk home plaster and all?

Thanks to all the flaggies.

Thanks to Adam for his patience in organising.

Bring on the next one!

Here's one of Sindows paying close attention to the instructions of the experienced drivers at the race day...

    • I guess one thing that might be wrong is the manifold pressure.  It is a constant -5.9 and never moves even under 100% throttle and load.  I would expect it to atleast go to 0 correct?  It's doing this with the OEM MAP as well as the ECU vacuum sensor. When trying to tune the base map under load the crosshairs only climb vertically with RPM, but always in the -5.9 column.
    • AHHHH gotchaa, I'll do that once I am home again. I tried doing the harness with the multimeter but it seems the car needed a jump, there was no power when it was in the "ON" position. Not sure if I should use car battery jump starter or if its because the stuff that has been disconnect the car just does send power.
    • As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.  
    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack. 
    • Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
