anna can prob put that on a shirt for you if you want, i'd buy one

it wont look right on you Mike you need to change that name Anna to Aaron (or any male name) trust me it'll go with your car :laugh:

He sure is. Mt Cotton are not fans of Skylines at all. But I spoke to him 2 days ago, and he's agreed to put his reputation with them on the line as long as we all sign forms agreeing to their rules. Which includes...

$300 for a full day - this includes theory for a little part of the morning, and the rest of the day on the track

The usual 80db shit

No linking corners (as long as you can show some effort to 'regain control' between one corne and the next, that's fine)

No handbrake action

Anyone disobeyeing direct instruction by him will be off, with no refund, no questions asked

I think all the conditions set out are fair. We have a bad enough rep as it is, I think if we behave, this will stand us in good stead for having more days out there, and it will be a good opportunity to showcase that we as a club, are responsible drivers, not baby eating monsters as everyone else believes.

80db ur joking right? :wave:

how many skylines would actually be 80 or under?

excellent work anna. i think we can all agree to those rules. by 80db do you mean exhaust or us :D

yeah, here are lee's balls, told oyu he doesnt have any anymore :wub::wave:

what claims? i didnt make any except that i would take anyone on :laugh:

and i stand by that, i will take anyone on. there is a QR track day being organised by mx5 club of queensland on the 27th of feb, if anyone wants to come prove themself :kiss:

andy, please take this n00b on and pwn him for us *sigh*

and stop fishing for compliments dam woman :kiss:

That's a standard thing, and most people already have made it. Fist your exhaust with steel wool. Deadens the sound while still everything it to 'flow' as it should :wave:

hmmm, an interesting proposition :wave:

u havnt even bought the mx5 yet u tool :laugh:

i'm buying it on sunday, its all confirmed. just have to go down, check it out in person and pay for it if i want it.

i dont know he looks pretty gay to me :wave:

all this lalk about baggin broad minded persons but no photos..

you can go have a look at her if you want, she's at the valley office now, i dont care :kiss: might look a bit suss.

*takes a photo*

girl - "what are you doing?"

mike - "taking a photo to put up on the net for everyone to see"

girl - "WHAT!!!!!"

*mike starts to run*

yeah, not a good idea really

At Mt Cotton my car came in at around 93db, I put a silencer on it and it scrapped through, but on the day some comments were made about its noise, the guy in charge made sure they werent testing noise levels when I was going around, in other words he went right out on a limb to make sure I wasnt expelled.

sounds like a metamucil commercial :kiss:

thats an interesting idea actually :wave: will look into it. let me know when they do organise something for us all anyway, i'm keen for a drive up there :laugh:

The usual 80db shit

Unless SDT/Mt Cotton have changed, the requirement was always for 90db. They also allow for a 1.5dB tolerance, so you need to be 88.5dB or under.

Last time SAu Qld were there (April 2006), 2 readings were taken one at 3200rpm and the other at 4000rpm

That's a standard thing, and most people already have made it. Fist your exhaust with steel wool. Deadens the sound while still everything it to 'flow' as it should :D

I pretty sure mike is very well practiced in getting Fisted but prolly has never fisted any thing :kiss:

and sif it still flows properly..... the look of burning steel wool flying outa your exhast is quite cool...

hmmm, an interesting proposition :wave:

    • 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.
