i was watching targa :D

you were better off. I Had a squiz on saturday. Considering it wasn't wet there was a few offs!

powercruise was shithouse I reckon, the last 2 were reasonable. I wont bother going back ever again.

bugger that. too much exspense for too little race time. I'm thinking along the lines of super series. targa b sorta thing. mm maybe in a year or 2.

then again there's a few stacked up targa cars at work that would go cheap lol

would be fun as i reckon, out of interest how much have to set aside to make your car compliant to targa regulations funz? Saw around 8 skylines all up in targa and on the woodbridge hill there was an SL/R5000 on the back of a tow truck with a sore nose.

biggest cost that ive encountered atm is rollcage and seats.. and thats not including the cost of entry fee, new semi's to run with and general maintenance to run the car and also the fact i need to buy/get built a hi flow turbo :) all this stuff here is looking at 8k+ BUT i plan on running the car in hillclimbs and track days all the time so im not just spending the dosh for targa :D

www.targawrestpoint.com.au has all the regs on what you can do :-)

Good luck getting the 350 passed for Targa with the engine mods!!!
he doesnt have any engine mods :S lol
Just spotted some BS^^^^^^^^^ :P

Also saw the red R35 this morning in Salamanca

what BS you talking about lol... me rather confused lol

BS is IN BOLD ya computer tweaking geek!!!

YUP! pretty sure i remember seeing this car about at powercruise!

Should of come and said hi :D

Some dude named chris got some footage of me so i asked for the rest and here it is!

Fking RED Holden Drives taking off like grandma :)

and that footage shows exactly why I couldn't be bothered with Power Cruise.

Get out there on a proper track day with only 4 or so cars and full use of the track...

Much more fun if you ask me :blink:

And yes I am friends with the guy whos car the footage is taken from and also the guy in the "Fking RED Holden" as well.

    • Hello, sorry for being late to join the discussion, but my clock just died on me.   Ive tried to look at Michaels digital clock repair.docx and it doesnt work maybe the file has expired.   Please let me know if you can re upload it or take some youtube videos to show us how to get the clock installed? thanks
    • I thought that might be the case, thats what I'll start saving for. Thanks for the info 
    • Ps i found the below forum and it seems to be the same scenario Im dealing with. Going to check my ECU coolant temp wire tomorrow    From NICOclub forum: s1 RB25det flooding at start up Thu Apr 11, 2013 7:23 am I am completely lost on this. Car ran perfectly fine when I parked it at the end of the year. I took the engine out and painted the engine bay, and put a fuel cell with an inline walbro 255 instead of the in tank unit I had last year. After reinstalling everything, the engine floods when the fuel pump primes. if i pull the fuel pump fuse it'll start, and as soon as I put the fuse back in it starts running ridiculously rich. I checked the tps voltage, and its fine. Cleaned the maf as it had some dust from sitting on a shelf all winter, fuel pressure is correct while running, but wont fire until there is less than 5psi in the lines. The fuel lines are run correctly. I have found a few threads with the same problem but no actual explanation of what fixed it, the threads just ended. Any help would be appreciated.

I found the problem though. There was a break in one of the ecu coolant temp sensor wires. Once it was repaired it fired right up with no problems. I would have never thought a non working coolant temp sensor would have caused such an issue.
    • Hi sorry late reply I didnt get a chance to take any pics (my mechanics on the other side of the city) but the plugs were fouled from being too rich. I noticed the MAF wasn't genuine, so I replaced it with a genuine green label unit. I also swapped in a different ignitor, but the issue remains. I've narrowed it down a bit now: - If I unplug and reconnect the fuel lines and install fresh spark plugs, the car starts right up and runs perfectly. Took it around the block with no issues - As soon as I shut it off and try to restart, it won't start again - Fuel pressure while cranking is steady around 40 psi, injectors have good spray, return line is clear, and the FPR vacuum is working. It just seems like it's getting flooded after the first start I unplugged coolant sensors to see if its related to ECU flooding but that didnt make a difference. Im thinking its related to this because this issue only started happening after fixing coolant leaks and replacing the bottom part of the stock manifolds coolant pipe. My mechanic took off the inlet to get to get to do these repairs. My mechanics actually just an old mate who's retired now so ill be taking it to a different mechanic who i know has exp with RBs to see if they find anything. If you have any ideas please send em lll give it a try. Ive tried other things like swapping the injectors, fuel rail, different fuel pressure regs, different ignitor, spark plugs, comp test and MAF but the same issue persists.
    • My return flow is custom and puts the return behind the reo, instead of at the bottom. All my core is in the air flow, rather than losing some of it up behind the reo. I realise that the core really acts more as a spiky heatsink than as a constant rate heat exchanger, and that therefore size is important.... but mine fits everything I needed and wanted without having to cut anything, and that's worth something too. And there won't be a hot patch of core up behind the reo after every hit, releasing heat back into the intake air.
