but in the end, i'm only 19 with very little spirited driving experience, now b4 ny1 goes flaming me, i'm already booked for the next 2 track days

age is no deciding factor. i've only just turned 20 and i'm a far superior driver than my father (who is quite good) it all comes down to natural talent as well.

come for a drive with me one day and i'll demonstrate what i mean :laugh:

Im not sure. I was told it disabled other things as well.

who ever told u that, dont know what they're talking about

my point is.. if someone else is a better driver.. accept it, don't make excuses just accept it and listen to them!

you'll be far better off for it.

i like to listen, u get far more help than if you act like you know everything!

thats very true. thats what i wanted to say. i would like to meet some of these people some day, i feel my friends just arent real drivers. dont get me wrong, they can drive pretty well, but they're just.......hoons.

there's an idea karen. maybe we could have a SAU driver training day. maybe go to a skidpan with a few of the expert drivers in SAU and teach some of the less experienced drivers advanced techniques to help better drive their car?

how does that sound?

too bad theres no where we can go legally mike. i mean SAU use to have training days at the mt cotton training centre, until it was closed to us :laugh:

The skidpan at Willowbank is not a dedicated skidpan or so I've been told.

The closest facility like Mt Cotton is Gympie :laugh:

Mt Cotton/SDT has a lot of legalities to deal with eg residents, councils, legislation etc, so its easier for us NOT to lose over $1000 if we get ejected from the course due to someones perception, by simply not holding skidpan days :P

yeah i know, but who would pay 1mil for a race car. for that price you could order some very fast road cars that would more than likely keep up with or beat that. doesnt make sense?

True...

Honestly though if you had a million to spend, you could probably afford to stretch to 1.4 million....and buy a Zonda :D

At least then you would get new car smells :(

    • There's restrictor pills in the stock boost control hoses. That's how they set the amount that was bled off and hence the "high" boost setting. The usual mod in the day was to remove it and send the "high" boost setting up to about 14 psi.
    • Thanks Duncan, that's the best info I've read. Furthermore after learning about the PCM programming side controlling the factory boost solenoid, the purpose of the solenoid is to "bleed" boost when pin 25 is earthed, thus allowing spring pressure in the wastegate actuator to overcome diaphragm boost pressure, thus closing or reducing the position of the wastegate flap creating more boost as the turbo is able to spin faster. It's pretty cool to see a designated Pill to do exactly this, would have liked to have seen it with a tiny filter over the end for those moments in vacuum.  The constant bleed pill has now been removed completely from the system and solenoid boost control has been restored once again.   Case closed 😂
    • The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.
    • Manual boost controllers (where a little of the boost was bled off) were quite common back in the day, because they were cheap and easy. Generally they had a manual adjustment screw rather than being fixed like yours. Down side is they always bleed boost, not just when you want them to so an electronic boost controller that uses a solenoid will have less lag.
    • Hello , im new here and i have A31 home build  RB25det neo stock eng / turbo  aem ems 2 blue connector  aem 3.5 map aem cas disk aem wideband connected to ecu  355 lph pump 550 nismo yellow injectors side feed aftermarket regulator  and won’t start with base aem tuner basic tune eventually flipped cas 180 degree so it triggers on correct stroke not in exhaust cycle  Now it won’t start Wideband reads 10 and 11 at lowest fuel setting  and will share calibrations soon for aem tuner i think something is wrong in aem tuner    please if you have any information, am very grateful
