Joel wants to do a photo shoot at Deca for this magazine feature he's putting together, thats the only reason.

I was thinking last night that there are plenty of pics of the car so maybe we could just photoshop me into the picture for the purpose of the article.

I am going to ask uniquecarsales.com.au for some more cash to keep the unique carsales on the car but everything else can now come off. The Yokohama will stay on too.

I can't wait to have it back to normal, I'm really sick of not being able to drive it anywhere.

Congrats to everyone who participated and those who volunteered their time to help out where they could.

I had a ball as usual. Buggered but fun none the less.

In the end, the dyno awards went to:

CDUKTV - Toyota Supra - 742rwkw

RH9 - R34 Skyline GTR - 662awkw

Benny's 180sx - 481 rwkw

CDUKTV and RH9 will most likely be at Final Battle along with the current record holder which is a Supra built by Millenium Motorsport in Brisbane which made 748rwkw on the gas to compete for the grand trophy.

It was only 18 months ago that 604awkw was the record. How times change...

Also congrats to SAU-VIC who scored a runner up trophy in one of the club categories.

Phew, i was gonna change my mind at the last minute and paint my 33 same colour, ive already "copied" your kit luckily i didnt do the same with the paint!! :)

Your car used to be silver yeah?

MissyK, is your car the RX8 with the EZZY plates? Any relation to the Astina?

Man i loved that car back in the day!

My rx8 is the red 1 with MISSSK.

EZZY plates on the orangy RX8 belongs to Ezzy Astina's owner :O

Yep yep, hes my best mate. He couldnt make it this weekend, hes back in Syd, so I had fun with his car. His astina still exists... in bits and pieces in his garage :)

MissyK owned the red RX8 next to the EZZY RX8. The EZZY car is owned by a good friend of hers.

And yea, the same EZZY as with the astina back in the day.

Ezzy nowadays is my 'advisor' hahahhaha

In remembrance of EZZY ASTINA, we put the EZZY plates on the 8 :)

      RB26DETT Sketchy boost mod?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      There's restrictor pills in the stock boost control hoses. That's how they set the amount that was bled off and hence the "high" boost setting. The usual mod in the day was to remove it and send the "high" boost setting up to about 14 psi.

      Thanks Duncan, that's the best info I've read. Furthermore after learning about the PCM programming side controlling the factory boost solenoid, the purpose of the solenoid is to "bleed" boost when pin 25 is earthed, thus allowing spring pressure in the wastegate actuator to overcome diaphragm boost pressure, thus closing or reducing the position of the wastegate flap creating more boost as the turbo is able to spin faster. It's pretty cool to see a designated Pill to do exactly this, would have liked to have seen it with a tiny filter over the end for those moments in vacuum.  The constant bleed pill has now been removed completely from the system and solenoid boost control has been restored once again.   Case closed 😂

      Cas issue

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.

      By Duncan · Posted

      Manual boost controllers (where a little of the boost was bled off) were quite common back in the day, because they were cheap and easy. Generally they had a manual adjustment screw rather than being fixed like yours. Down side is they always bleed boost, not just when you want them to so an electronic boost controller that uses a solenoid will have less lag.
