Bris - check out the track event dates thread at the top of this section.

http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/in...showtopic=98397

I dont think they are back there until October. :D

PS. We got these dates at the start of the year, so they may have changed. Best bet is to check the Maserarti website.

Hmm, i dont have a significant other to help finance my addiction :

If work clears up a little i can hopefully get a weeks leave to get the car sorted, its goign to be difficult.

...unless Al wants to co-enter his car...LOL...with my semis on it will beat Scotsman ;)

I would bet money on it :P

If it was 2 weeks later i would have been a much better chance.

Does anyone know when Maserati are next back at Sandown?

...as for Blue vs White R34...your bith lucky they wont be getting the Silver Bullet up their ass, completely out of control under brakes...something to do with running out of talent trying to keep up :D

White paint is lighter than blue paint so Snowman needs more POWER !!!!!!!

Good to see Snowball having a crack after so long, gonna be an interesting group of cars, I'll chase Snowy, Snowy can chase Aaron, Aaron can chase Frank, Frank can chase Sam...

Oh, and Scotsman should be in the same boat as me..... providing all the above people are racing on the day..

CAN'T WAIT!!!!

hopefully im in your group so I can chase you :dry:

And I'll be chasing you Ray!

:mellow:

...but I think chasing you could be bad for my/my cars health...

:mellow:

Bris, if you need a pair of unskilled hands to assist you in getting the car ready for sandown, let me know.

Scotsman I think is out. But someone should tell Benno since this event is on a Sunday and he recently missed out on the Maserati Day because of his arm.

And Aaron - Blue paint might be heavier but I make up for it with all the clear coat I'm missing. :mellow:

...its a bit of time, and a bit of money...doesnt look like the brakes will be sorted in time either, so after it takign a bit of time and being done right, dotn want to undo the panel beaters good work by blowing, bending something because i have rushed.

I want to do at least a few long drives and a few hard stops on the new brake setup before gopignt o the track with them...otherwise i may need to grab them back off you for a week.

    • 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.
