Well done John! Big thank you to the UAS staff, Wakefield Park for the weather, all the competitors and spectators.

Top effort Reedy for getting into the 12's, although the quickest 6 cylinder turbo was a Zed. :P

I managed a PB of 1:13.52 but had issues with a bottle of octane boost. :D

Thanks boys as well had a good day but where were the trophies on the last Oran park day, I'm sure I was close to the quickest 6 cylinder turbo class non GTR or race car (and will have to not include 4 cylinders as well).

Anyway Luke you said you've got a larger water pulley, which one was it I couldn't see any for r33 gtst? Would like to do more than 3 laps without the water temp reaching 100 degrees (or maybe get a N1 water pump or larger radiator).

Also might do the eastern creek day if you get some semis in time.

We check and sort your car Reedy. Also a good time and is this your best? Common Wayne can't let a Skyline Boy beet you?? Oh sorry we are on Skyline froum so......

It should not get this hot so quick although you do push it and have decent power, which is more heat.

We can move oil cooler down to one of the corners of front of car with ducting and away from radiator will help. Will check thermostat is opening properly, and radiator in good conditon, ducting and sealing off radiaotr for full flow and or larger radiator.

Also Wayne (Ports ) cant do timing at Oran Park unless CAMS event.

Link to pics.

Only joking by the way and I was waiting for a reply about " slow just looked good." Darren beat me by about half a second. Rematch at the next SAU track day 8th October.

      RB25DE NEO with Haltech ECU

      Shouldn't need a "base map" for anything other than guidance to ignition tuning. You just need the engine capacity right, the injector size right, and something, almost anything, for a VE map. On an NA engine, fuelling is almost completely a function of load signal & rpm. It should run and drive with a completely flat fuel map. It will be too lean under load, but that's easily fixed. We used to tune all ECUs without any base map. There were no such things (until someone had tuned a near stock engine on one, and then they had a "base map".

      What did you actually buy/how much did it cost? When I got mine in like.. 2017...? 2019? the aim was to run Torque for gauges via ODB2 and things like Track Addict/Laptimers/Dashcam/Reversecam/Spotify etc. Mine never broke, but I wonder if you've got the same needs (it sounds like it). Cause I liked the idea of being able to do anything with it. That said, yours also cost 3x the cost of what I spent so... food for thought.

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      By Duncan · Posted

      For me there is a massive difference in manufacturer or big brand crippled android (Sony, Kenwood etc) vs the sort of thing I've installed here, which is basically just a tablet in DIN form factor with open Android, and the other model of course is mirroring - Android Auto/Carplay. I hate the locked down manufacturer and AA options where they decide what apps I'm allowed to install, including the Launcher but also importantly things like Ecutek (for this car) or Real Dash (Stagea) are not supported. Plus those crippled versions tend to be slower due to both overheads and lower spec hardware. On the other hand, when this breaks I'll likely be in trouble for support....but how is that different to owning an Infiniti anyway

      Yeah, Duncan is helping sell me back to Android devices. I've hated the whole Android head units due to their speed issues. Even in my old Hyundai Kona (2022 model), it behind the scenes was Android, and slow and shitty to start up. Once running wasn't bad, but still a good 15 to 30 seconds.

      My roof rails are off atm on the E39 until the rust is fixed. I did find another little bit of surface rust under the rails when I took them off. As @soviet_merlin said I'd just leave them alone unless you're planning on ensuring they're properly sealed. I was on the fence about leaving them off as the delete is still a thing in BMW E39's but I feel like the car is missing something (er, it is, der) with them off and I'm looking forward to putting them back on.
