Are any of the NSW Skyline peoples coming to Eastern Creek on Friday, or is this the day Sydney men go for their solariums, get their sacks waxed and get their G-Strings tightened for the weekend at Bondi?

I hope you don't mind but seeing as how your now free on Friday I've taken the liberty and booked you in for a back,sack and crack wax. Oh I spoke to Pete and your more than welcome to borrow his little yellow g-sting. :laugh::P:D

Neil.

Aaron - we spoke to EC again last week about letting us bring some NSW people along but they so far haven't come to the party. They still are saying for NSW people they will need a PC or high license.

So you and Jack need to come to Wakefield since everyone is now coming there.

you boys better pull the finger out. my friend spencer is down there today with the little alfa. 2 litre, NA, carby. running on 14inch rims. no fancy alloy panels, no turbos, no massive brakes, all still factory glass etc and he just pulled a 1:11.5 out of his arse. on a track with about 25 cars on it!

it was good enough for P2 in quali for group NC outright btw. :(

ddamn skills.....making us look bad

nice times for a car that uses a toilet to deliver the fuel :D

Spencer's doing pretty well, hope he's having plenty of fun too :P

lol, yeah we dont have a throttle. we have a half flush or full flush switch... :( yeah he is loving it. we spent a few years building that car, and he spent loads of his own time and money and we are all just happy to have it pay off. 1:11.3 is around 2 secs under the lap record for the class. this weekend saw us wrap up the class championship (got a trip to port douglas). he is having a ball of course. :huh: I can't wait to jump back in the thing, I've been missing some old school ball tearing fun. it's such a great car to drive, and a real testament to his skill as a mechanic and a driver.

    • 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.
