The only thing better than having your own supercar manufacturer is having a private racetrack to drive them on. :D

WERD !!!

I've always had this dream of owning an international airport as a race track !! The real challange would be dodging the mobile aircraft on the runways and taxiways during the race :dry:

Personally, I wouldn't use an airfield, though. Runways are inherently flat, and that's boring. I've got this dream of building a Nurburgring Nordschleife-like "proving ground" track.

Every type of corner imaginable (increasing radius, decreasing radius, varying camber, double and triple apex, etc), with surface changes and massive gradient changes.

My plan would be to build it in a strip mine, so after a 3 km long main straight (which would let any car V-Max given the open, decreasing radius turn that feeds onto it and the fact that it runs downhill for the last few hundred metres) you'd have a speed-bowl like banked Turn 1 so you could keep the foot planted and do 400km/hr around this curve in your Veyron.

That straight would also double up as a quarter mile and standing kilometre drag strip.

If you owned it, you could set your own rules.

The GT-R has the right of way. The Airbus can give way.

Actually, there would be NO right-of-way !! Therein lies the challenge :dry:

It's like what I'd like to do with F1, throw 2 stock Hyundai Excells on the back of the grid to make the racing more interesting !!

    • 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
    • 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 
    • 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
    • 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.
