Well the final round of the 2006 State Autotest Championship was held last sunday at the AHG centre near the airport. From all reports there were some fierce battles for the final class placing's and outright championship points on offer.

I would just like to congratulate three SAUWA members, Gavin Page, Andre Vaisey and Liz Sheehan who came 2nd, 3rd and 4th respectively in their class. WELL DONE :ninja:

It just goes to show that you don't need mega horsepower monsters to do well against a field that consisted of Jaguars, supras, bmws and even one ferrari!

Thanks Ant. :pirate: Also Andre (leadfoot) came 3rd - he is also from these forums. Throughout the season he placed 2nd and he did this running without R-Comps... beating some of those who did have them and the suspension to match. That is an awesome effort.

I will be contesting every round next year i hope. Only got 3 this year as my car was not ready :P . Look forward to some friendly competition from ya's.

oh by the way, Congrats to you guys for your results. Very well done.

Well done guys. Fingers crossed I'll be there competing next year ;)

then we shall see who can't drive :) If i place before you - you have to buy me a supercharger for next xmas okay?? If you place before me - i'll just take you out to dinner :)

I think the ferrari only competed a couple of times. But the guy who drives the Jag... when he tries he places well. As soon as he gets a wrong way or hits a cone he just starts putting on a show for the crowd doing 360's etc... its good to watch at least!

totally stoked with my placing and my way cool trophy am gunna have to majorly shape up next season with the quality of everyone entering the class thru this season

and well done to the other sauwa guys

    • Ok I get you. But isn’t the butterfly intake a headache with the +T?  see this is my plan so far but please advise me into the right direction.  Nistune Ecu, 1000cc Bosch injectors, TD05 or TD06 Kinugawa turbo using stock rb25det exhuast manifold, walbro fuel pump unsure of model I think it’s 450/460, spitfire coils and sparks to suit and a R35 MAF sensor and boost sensor.    I was thinking maybe do a cheap eBay plenum $400-500 or try find a stock det neo intake. I think I’d port match it so it’s getting the full capacity but open to advice please.  Thanks 
    • The issue now is the 'fuel cut' while driving, and when it happend, it does not stall. This, I did not test the fuel pressure while driving as I cannot with a fuel pressure gauge. I do have Nistune logs, yes. I have also replaced the MAF Sensor.   Also related to the FPG Fuel Hanger – I just realized that I need a Deutsch Crimp Tool to crimp some cables for the FPG Fuel Hanger. Need to purchase additional cables as the kit only included 2, which are for the float. FPG has not responded to my emails so far since purchasing. I thought about taking it to someone and having it done professionally, but I am reluctant since everyone I took it to messed up in some way.  
    • There's a good German place in Brisbane if youre up for the drive 😛
    • The German place in Cabramatta was rock solid, fresh pretzel cooked to order back then. Then it went all quiet, after all the poker machines were removed, then I believe it closed for good. I did drive past the other week and noticed outdoor lighting a big screen, but no idea what is there now.  
    • Yeah I suspect even if you hold airmass per cycle/cylinder constant if you get too far away from stock you're still going to have problems running the factory tune within the bounds of the factory load scale. Cams, different displacement/rod ratio, etc. I'm just lucky that the GTIII-SS with wastegate boost + CA compliance cats is pretty much equivalent to stock turbos. When I have actual space I can finally get it tuned and modify the fuel system for flex fuel to 100% handle any detonation concerns when cranking the boost to whatever those dinky turbos can put out.
