Steve,

On the street my RE540S's (once warm) are bloody awesome. Put it this way, after fitting them the new grip levels helped my clutch die very quickly. Previously my 255 Falkens had taken the brunt through w/spin. New grip levels & minimal w/spin meant it was the clutches turn to cop it!

On the strip I've yet to make the most of them. Clutch slip & failure to heat them (no burnout) are the reasons.

Well had 3 runs 2nite. Not very happy, but oh well. First run 14.8 105mph. 2nd run 14.1 108mph and the 3rd 14.8 103mph. I think the main problem was the tyres on the back. I had re540s but it kept bogging down of the line. I was taking off with 5-6000 revs but still bogging down. By the time I got going it was down to about2500. My r/t were all aroud .4 to .5 Those tyres have sooo much grip

i ran a 14.8 when my car was stock, went back to the track last night with fmic, pod, 3" all the way and boost at 14psi. Had big boost problems, it kept bleeding back to 10psi, i'm thinking the waste gate actuator or the BOV are leaking. Still ran a 14.491 though which makes me confident i can break into the 13's with this setup.

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
