Thanks Simon i think it was (R34GTT) that came out with me and showed me the track as well as explaining all that important newbie stuff.. i am defently adicted to the track like herion!..LOL

And for anyone that wanted to know about the New Potenza Adrenalin tyres i must say they are awsome!!... The guys i took for laps in my car could not belive the levels of grip available from these tyres, allthou i was down on power and my clutch slipping it seemed i was allwase catching people thru the corners in group 4 so i cant say good enough things about these tyres considering there a road tyre.. much impressed!!

I cant wait to get out there again!!.. weres all the pics?? :D

If it was a white one with a drift wing and later the front bar came off then the monster was pumping out 260+rwkw even gives the GTR's are run for their money on the straights hehe. :)

Yep thats the one i couldnt get along side you to pass and was worried about the extra 5psi poping the intercooler piping off if i ran the scramble boost.Good fun tho.

31/8/07 anther track day

dude, you are causing problems in my marriage :laughing-smiley-014:

Did anyone manage to time my V35?

The guy that was with me said he got me using his phone, in the very high 1min 23secs. Sounds a bit too good I think.

Cheers

hey that was me with the GTS-T. she go's ok i suppose hahaha. i was just glad to get her out of the shed and give it all she had with out seeing the red and blues. i had major traction issues all day and had to turn the boost down to 0.8 bar. but i am now looking for some 17's to fit some semis to so i can have another go. i am addicted.

Many thanks to Adam for organising and to all the 'helpers' on the day. It was great to be able to take passengers again!

Credit to all drivers, the track was not user friendly, yet there were no serious offs. I have to mention Dave, my adopted track newbie for the day, well done Dave, you progressed really well - I look forward to seeing you at the next track day!

      RB25DE NEO with Haltech ECU

      By Haggerty · Posted

      I seem to the be only person that is using a Haltech 2500 on an NA motor, I've installed a Bosch DBW throttle body to the OEM intake manifold and am having problems maintaining AFR even with the wideband o2.  It will run extremely rich at idle and up to redline, but under load it will go extremely lean in the 20s and i'm essentially having to rev it over 4k and feather the clutch to get it up to speed.  I've read a few other threads of about the butterfly, it seems removing the vacuum to it is supposed to have it remain open, i've noticed no difference under 4k with the vacuum line to it plugged.  I'm hoping someone here has had luck using the NA manifold with Haltech, and if they happen to have a tune for it.

      Could it really happen......

      I don't know any details, but I really wouldn't be surprised if they do it as a LHD only version, at least initially.

      What should I do next to hold the head on

      By Gareth87 · Posted

      Thanks for the replies everyone. Definitely a coolant push. Oil catch can is empty and always has been. As the engine is out now I'll be having a good look over things. I do have some detonation on the piston tops from a trigger issue back about 5 years ago. I felt it and shut off then bought a new ecu and changed the trigger. Never been an issue since. It never hurt the power, its made almost 80hp more since that incident but I will pull the bearing caps to take a look. If the bearings are damaged I will do a bottom end refresh. Head is being re conditioned at the moment and the block will be cleaned and checked to ensure it's flat. I'll go with a kameari gasket and see how it ends up. The other thing I'm not super keen on is the cylinder colours. I suspect this is from the inlet manifold. The plan will be to put it back together, retune and then stick a plazmaman billet inlet on it and retune. I'm happy with the power, if it makes a little more, then great, but I would rather just make everything more efficient at this stage.

      Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...

      Does it also misfire equally when revving?   Josh is very correct in what you should do. The coilpack harness wiring loom itself is a known problem due to its age and the number of heat cycles it has gone through. Throwing parts at a vehicle to diagnose the issue isn't a smart or good way to do it. Secondly, you may have a bad coil pack, you pop replacements in, they fix that issue, but messing with the harness breaks it, so the issue persists. So now you think "well it wasn't the coil packs" and have to continue chasing your tail, potentially swapping back in your shit coil packs and returning the good ones (yes, I've seen people do this because 'it wasn't the problem' and they want to save money). And suddenly, you've got two issues with the same symptoms...   Diagnose, don't use the spare parts shotgun.
