He's still actually looking for a co-driver :(

Most of us need 4wd and tricky electronics to hide our inadequacies as drivers so Bris is having trouble finding someone with enough natural talent to pilot the R32 Supercar with him.

Which is surprising given the only real pre-requisite he has is - Must Love Gate

Yes...must love the gate and be more interested in stirring sh1t and enjoying a drink then winning the thing. With the diff fixed the car will esily win its class (based on last yeasr speed and competitiveness) .

Last years co-driver served me well, but i have decided its up to me to publically can him and say i sacked him rather then he left me for something better :(

I wish to watch the rally (NSW) and would like a program of the events, anyone got any info?

I know they are going to Wakefield, Sutton forest, Fairburn but then back up to Sydney for eastern creek, Sydney international drags. Anyone got more specific information would be greatly appreciated

Troy is right - his 2006 co-driver was a slow, cone killing hack (albeit a famous one - see about 6'30" in this video -

) who feels much more at home with electronic and hydraulic jiggerypokery doing the driving for him. A 2007 contender needs to be worthy of the Bullet, and not scared and confused when told the front wheels aren't actually driven.

Anyhoo - are any of the NSW SAU Team entering the NSW round in 2-weeks?

I'll be there in the slowest, yet coolest car in the field.

Come and cheer for me :laugh:

I am acutally seriously considering the perth event this year. Went to the launch party and was a very good night over here. I am a bit worried about the s15 6 speed box, 300+hp and twin plate clutch.....

Your so full of sh1t. You are a good driver plenty capable of beating me and most others....its just that a combination of lack of seat time and no belief in a car spannered by me and the swag of merry SAUers who helped piece Humpty Dumpty back together. Well you psyched yourself out and didnt want to break something i had worked so hard to get ready. I love you for it and appreciate that you didnt want to hurt it...that said. FARK YOU!!! You abandoned me and Team 32...so, thinking Rowdy woudl make an awesone co-driver who would no doubt beat me :) Plus Marlin has put his hand up which icould be so much fun! :glare:

I'm doing the W.A. round this year. The schedule sounds really good. I'm coming over at the start of July for a practise run down at Collie and Barbagallo just to get familiar with the place. I did a half day at AHG earlier this year and that's a great set-up for sure.

The thing about these type of events is they aren't as bad on drivelines as everyone thinks mostly because the surfaces you do most of your starts from don't have the grip to put huge strains through them. The only place you're really likely to hurt it is at Kwinana. So if you take that easy you should be right.

But if you want to speak to a few more of us beforehand I know a few guys will be at the Collie track day on July 1st.

Ahh excellent. I will try and get down there for a look on July. I am just going there for fun anyway. My experience is limited to a few MC track days. Its more for the increased experience too in motorsports.

the organisers are crack ups too.

It doesnt look like a Targa west or Targa tasmania style racing though. It looks very interesting and quite enjoyable for the newbies of racing.

come around for a beer when you guys hit town. Should be able to help you with contacts and stuff for people over here if you need it.

I'm actually competing with a Perth local (Blaise Paris in an EVO 8MR). Not sure if you know him but if you go to any of the AHG sprint series events he'll be there. I'll be using his car for all my W.A. stuff with him.

Evo"s! grr that cheating :):D:teehee:

hahaha

He sounds familiar. but yes. should be a good weekend.

Our Cars are finally ready...adn yes we are cheats EVO 8MR and a STI...APC finished the tune on both last night and just a few suspension tweaks to do today and tomorrow and we will be putting them on our transporter tomorrow night for the drive down!!

Should be a good event now that all places are full!!

Cheers

    • Harness is for a s1 Rb25det, and it is engine and lower harness.  the old harness had broken off plugs and was in very rough condition/exposed wires and splices etc. it is not able to be put back on the car, I could visually inspect to see if they had rewired any pins on the ecu plug. The fuel pump definitly isn’t turning off it’s an external pump and very loud you can hear it. Will look at the other harness tonight, am also going to pull the fuel rail and watch the injectors spray, will update here with what I find. Pretty sure at this point it has to be something to do with injectors because car will fire up on starting fluid and cas is clicking the Injectors. Fuel pressure is steady 43psi 
    • Check the injectors flow evenly, and are actually flowing what you and the ECU think they should be flowing. If it's starting up on starter fluid, you have a fuel issue. Is it possible under cranking your fuel pump is turning off?   The harness you replaced, is that the whole engine harness? Do yourself a test, and drop the old harness on and plug it into the Z32 ECU. It's possible they've wired things different. From memory S1 to S2 is different in RB25 and you may have a wrong loom
    • I haven’t pulled the injectors to watch them spray yet but they are clicking from the cas and all of the spark plugs are wet with fuel. I’ve thought the cylinders were being flooded from the beginning and was hoping fuel pressure would fix it. Tonight I am going to pull the rail and watch the injectors spray. Don’t know how to test/diagnose if the plugs are firing in correct sequence but that should be a timing thing and as far as timing goes my car still has the half moon for the cas can only install it 1 way. And my mechanical timing is 100% correct I posted photos above. Confirmed with the balancer on and off. 
    • I checked spark on all cylinders and they all visually have spark with the plug pulled and grounded, but plug 1 is the only one that fouled. This was a running swap that blew up and was rebuilt by a machine shop, put a new wiring specialties harness and did all gaskets, studs, and bolts while it was out.  compression is 135-150 across all cylinders. Aside from that from my understanding with the z32 ecu and maf the car should start regardless. The wiring for TPS and the dual 02 sensor/ dual knock sensor stuff shouldn’t actually stop the car from starting or even running well, (just slightly rich)  they just give fault codes. Car supposedly is supposed to start as long as you have z32 afm and ecu with the nistune base map and that’s info coming from a well known and trusted tuner who does a lot with SR/RB (Rsenthalpy). After more trouble shooting today where I’m at right now is that the cas is sending signal to the injectors they click while spinning the rotor, Fuel pressure is now set at 43psi, all cylinders have good compression and all of the plugs looked great (just wet with fuel) except for cylinder 1 which was very black (cylinder 1 has 150psi compression). all of the coils generate spark if pulled out and grounded out on the head. On the fuel pump car just pops into the exhaust. On starting fluid car will fire off. Hard to tell if all cylinders are firing off but definitley a couple. sounds like all of them but it’s only for 3-5 seconds hard to tell.
