Track Times

Check Jason Edlgey's times in a love boat, first time at Wakefield and 2nd time ever at any track and 1 min 52 semi slicks stock engine and turbo's full road bling trim. They don't all ware cardigans and smoke a pipe.

Slot car went well 1 min 45.56, KAAZ fixed traction problem although being 2 way it pushes the car into a few corners so looking at doing something here. Reedy if looking here what is your KAAZ one or 1.5 or 2 way?

Can't wait for the big one with the SAU Vic boys 10th November.

John got a 1.5 way I believe it doesn't lock up so much under braking?

Had a great day as well boys especially the last few sessions.

Thanks to Abo and boys for organising it.

I saw someone taking photos at the last turn into the straight a few times. Silver Arrows maybe?

I hope there are some of mine.

The more I think about it, the more I realise how much fun I actually had, and how much I really would prefer to be back out there than sitting here in my cubicle at work infront of this damn laptop.

some good times there guys (some not so good! lol).

I would have liked to have been out there, but a massive sat night, and sunday on the couch in front of the 2.6 metre wide screen with bathurst on meant there was no chance.

I'm actually a little suprised with some of the times, I would have expected more!

good work to John on FTD! that dude in the zed is doing a good job of a 1:52 first time out too.

well theres no excuses for you next time..

you can come show us newbie's hows its done

yes, 1.5way is the goer for track use, unless you are into that weird sideways driving.

silver, i dunno about showing the way, i'm no track master! lol. certainly no gun driver either, i think my first time at EC was 1:58s :D since then down to 1:54.6 but hoping to be a little better next time. still driving my poor little R32... hehe.

Just wanted to say thanks to Adam for setting up this great day and to whomever was involved that I didnt get to meet yesterday. There was clearly a lot of work that went into making this day happen and to all involved well done.

I was really stoked to run a 1 min 52.614 told you Adam the tune would help

There was a few interesting cars I had some tussles with. A 1977 mustang type celica had some mumbo down the straight but lacked in the corners. A white R33 with semis? was going great but seemed to struggle in the corners also.

I trailer the car as I have the slicks fitted for track days and it saves me the hassle of trying to fit all my tools etc and tyres into the zed and is also a saftey factor in case something goes bang!!

Next time out I will hopefully be chasing down a few of those top 5 cars.

Cheers

The RX7 had a split fuel line. The reason the guys couldn't put the fire out probably is because the lines were on fire from front to back of the car.

I've been over to the RENEW website and they have been effusive with their thanks for the flaggies efforts. We all really appreciate you guys.

Check my new sig :D

Here is the rest of the times.

I cant find the link to the thread?

Regardless, I had a ball. So much fun. Soooo much fun. Sorry I didn't open her up and get her sideways near the guys at turn two. I didn't want to burn the tires this time around, I have no more monies for new ones after that Oran day!

Dont worry mate - that pipe of yours sounds awesome on corner exit :D

      Hello, sorry for being late to join the discussion, but my clock just died on me.   Ive tried to look at Michaels digital clock repair.docx and it doesnt work maybe the file has expired.   Please let me know if you can re upload it or take some youtube videos to show us how to get the clock installed? thanks

      Strange issue RB25DET wont start

      By jtha7 · Posted

      Ps i found the below forum and it seems to be the same scenario Im dealing with. Going to check my ECU coolant temp wire tomorrow    From NICOclub forum: s1 RB25det flooding at start up Thu Apr 11, 2013 7:23 am I am completely lost on this. Car ran perfectly fine when I parked it at the end of the year. I took the engine out and painted the engine bay, and put a fuel cell with an inline walbro 255 instead of the in tank unit I had last year. After reinstalling everything, the engine floods when the fuel pump primes. if i pull the fuel pump fuse it'll start, and as soon as I put the fuse back in it starts running ridiculously rich. I checked the tps voltage, and its fine. Cleaned the maf as it had some dust from sitting on a shelf all winter, fuel pressure is correct while running, but wont fire until there is less than 5psi in the lines. The fuel lines are run correctly. I have found a few threads with the same problem but no actual explanation of what fixed it, the threads just ended. Any help would be appreciated.

I found the problem though. There was a break in one of the ecu coolant temp sensor wires. Once it was repaired it fired right up with no problems. I would have never thought a non working coolant temp sensor would have caused such an issue.

      Strange issue RB25DET wont start

      By jtha7 · Posted

      Hi sorry late reply I didnt get a chance to take any pics (my mechanics on the other side of the city) but the plugs were fouled from being too rich. I noticed the MAF wasn't genuine, so I replaced it with a genuine green label unit. I also swapped in a different ignitor, but the issue remains. I've narrowed it down a bit now: - If I unplug and reconnect the fuel lines and install fresh spark plugs, the car starts right up and runs perfectly. Took it around the block with no issues - As soon as I shut it off and try to restart, it won't start again - Fuel pressure while cranking is steady around 40 psi, injectors have good spray, return line is clear, and the FPR vacuum is working. It just seems like it's getting flooded after the first start I unplugged coolant sensors to see if its related to ECU flooding but that didnt make a difference. Im thinking its related to this because this issue only started happening after fixing coolant leaks and replacing the bottom part of the stock manifolds coolant pipe. My mechanic took off the inlet to get to get to do these repairs. My mechanics actually just an old mate who's retired now so ill be taking it to a different mechanic who i know has exp with RBs to see if they find anything. If you have any ideas please send em lll give it a try. Ive tried other things like swapping the injectors, fuel rail, different fuel pressure regs, different ignitor, spark plugs, comp test and MAF but the same issue persists.
