i just started a thread before about a race i had. it was closed because were not alloud to talk about drag racing apparently...??? i never said in the thread that it was on the street... i did that on purpose because everyone expects that its always on suburban roads.

so just asking, is anyone alloud to talk about drags? or are we only alloud to talk about hyperthetical drags like always goes on in this forum? always asking, "will i beat this car with these mods" and people reply yes or no but no one every finds out. even if those people have certain mods its up to the driver.

so to cut it short... are we aloud to talk about any type of drag that actual took place? maybe if i replaced me driver with a "mate" that was driving the thread wouldnt of closed. or we are all forbidden to talk about drags unless its "make believe"?

OORRRRR are we only alloud to compare 1/4 mile times and 60ft times on paper with other cars that proberly werent even there on the same night....

word to ya mother :D:spank::D:3some::angry:

If we didn’t get so many p plater tools coming on here saying omg bro I full chopped this sick wrx or what do I need to beat this LS1 as I got burnt by a couple a few nights ago on the streets, my pride has been hurt and I need to get it back pfft

There is an official drag area on these forums for a reason, if you bothered to search you would have found it. Having the odd squirt at the lights is all fun and good with no one else around but I hear quite often about some tool racing a wrx weaving through traffic at high speeds... I am just waiting for those people to appear on the news either in a hooning segment or a another skyline has crashed let’s ban everyone under 25 from driving them... */end rant*

If its not on a track we don't really wanna hear about it here. Its tools like you that give us all a bad name...

The forum has an intergrity to protect as well

I don't think theres any need for personal attacks... give him the benifit of the doubt first...

i think as long as your not coming across bragging about doing stupid things then you're generally ok... i didn't read your post... maybe pm the mods of the section that deleted it to ask them what they didn't like so you don't post like that again...

I dont mind people starting threads talking about drag racing thats in a controlled enviroment, its just street drag racing is what annoys me.

My hatred is fuelled further, when the thread starter, brags about how cool he is, because he beat a <Insert car here> at a set of traffic lights.

The secound rule about street racing is there is no such thing as street racing...

Anyhow... dude, your other thread comes across as street racing plain and simple.

If i was mod of this section, i would have locked it aswell.

And car "X" vs car "Y" threads arent tolerated here, and thats what the other thread is almost aswell.

wasent at a proper "paid" to get in drag strip, in my town we have a closed down small air strip that not many people know about, which is soon going to be ripped down and houses going up.

also i thought people wouldnt mind talking about drags or races because its a type of sport and a lust for power.

^^ that they take to officially controlled events..

Carefuly where you race, especailly when you are in the middle of nowhere.. If something happened - and it can.. you'd be in some serious shit.. and you wonder why people criticise your posts..

you say "I wasn't street racing" well - sorry.. not much difference between what you were doing and on the street racing..

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      By Duncan · Posted

      Depending on how long the car sat it is very possible for injectors to be stuck open or closed, I'd get them cleaned and flow tested. Other than that, obviously when the loom changes and the car doesn't start any more....the loom is suspect so some tracing / comparing may be required

      By 25zenki · Posted

      Harness is for a s1 Rb25det, and it is engine and lower harness.  the old harness had broken off plugs and was in very rough condition/exposed wires and splices etc. it is not able to be put back on the car, I could visually inspect to see if they had rewired any pins on the ecu plug. The fuel pump definitly isn’t turning off it’s an external pump and very loud you can hear it. Will look at the other harness tonight, am also going to pull the fuel rail and watch the injectors spray, will update here with what I find. Pretty sure at this point it has to be something to do with injectors because car will fire up on starting fluid and cas is clicking the Injectors. Fuel pressure is steady 43psi

      By MBS206 · Posted

      Check the injectors flow evenly, and are actually flowing what you and the ECU think they should be flowing. If it's starting up on starter fluid, you have a fuel issue. Is it possible under cranking your fuel pump is turning off?   The harness you replaced, is that the whole engine harness? Do yourself a test, and drop the old harness on and plug it into the Z32 ECU. It's possible they've wired things different. From memory S1 to S2 is different in RB25 and you may have a wrong loom

      By 25zenki · Posted

      I haven’t pulled the injectors to watch them spray yet but they are clicking from the cas and all of the spark plugs are wet with fuel. I’ve thought the cylinders were being flooded from the beginning and was hoping fuel pressure would fix it. Tonight I am going to pull the rail and watch the injectors spray. Don’t know how to test/diagnose if the plugs are firing in correct sequence but that should be a timing thing and as far as timing goes my car still has the half moon for the cas can only install it 1 way. And my mechanical timing is 100% correct I posted photos above. Confirmed with the balancer on and off.
