mmmm I woulda thought they woulda been 58 second cars, atleast the 33 anyway.

fraid not mate...takes a little more than removing the total interior to run 58's

Alas they were a long way off being "fast " at basky.

61-62's still aint to shabby for a street car.

The old man mentioned you were going to the training day. How was it? Worth while doing?

Yeah sorry guys...that sort of came out wrong!!

It's just that looks are deceiving - if you looked at Matt Rodgers Supra would you think that was capable of 59 second laps?

Just wish my car was that fast...or even partly close to that would be nice!

Shane- the day was well worth it mate, instructors were really good and seemed to know their stuff, my car is still set up for tarmac rally so is way too soft for the circuit, was scraping the tyres through the sweeper and the esses to the point where it felt like they were going to come through the floor.

By the end of the day with some guidance I managed to settle down my corner entry and knock a second off my best time around there, even with the current set up.

Well worth signing up for no matter what level you are at.

I didn't know Matt has a Supra

Sounds like the day was well worth it if you found a second a lap. A second a lap can cost a lot of money if you try to get it other ways!!!

For sure, every second is damn hard to come by!

E85 is on the horizon very soon..... need something to keep up to you blokes with all the power !!!!!!

Don't be concerned about the E85. The people I know that have switched to it have got better results than big $$$'s race fuel.

Next time I do any engine mods to the Z I think that's what I'll get it tuned on.

    • neither stumble or cut really seem to be an appropriate term....hard to explain its like a rev limiter but at 4k, but it violently shakes engine and entire vehicle as the rpms will not rise over 4k, even with slow acceleration. as soon as it hits 4k, it sounds like entire spark is lost entirely. plugs were 1.1 which I used as such, but later put in new plugs gapped down to .8 changed back after issue arose when I replaced the coils, still does it with either plug gap...damn and it was all running so good.
    • Oh how times have changed! I actually lean it out relative to my water/methanol injector duty cycle. The methanol adds a lot of fueling and you can then lean it out even more due to reduced knock. 
    • Yeah my thoughts are the same, a well thought out WMI setup, would be slightly ahead of just straight E85 and you're also chemically intercooling the charged air, dropping it even further. This is why you need to add so much more fuel as soon as you spray. I remember someone taking me through their set up before (Dennis, has a R33, lives around Cabramatta - no idea if he's still around on this forum). He would target AFR 10:1 on 98, then as WMI ramped on, AFR would lean back up to 11:1. Amazingly, he did this all through his PowerFC, a relay to cut power to his EBC solenoid if there was not enough line pressure on his WMI kit. And of course, if there wasn't any boost made above gate pressure, you wouldn't be accessing the load cells with heaps of timing for WMI. One downside to that rudimentary setup, once the WMI came on, the EBC would unleash the dragon, and of course all the timing. Tyres would fry lol.
