is andrew lawson the RX7 driver? Wouldn't realy bother me, I just want to go racing.

Black sparkly S14 200sx-r (you would know it, its load shooting material).

Running within the top 20 at Rally Tas is a great effort and good on you for getting out there, a point of difference like running a ute or a wild color is always the best way to draw a sponsor.

I heard you guys had some pretty wild looking angles out of corners on stages! How did the tyres hold up?

I can see John's point of view, however minor the contact might have been he now has a damaged car and as Tasmanian circuit racing is hardly about sheep stations any damage is a pain in the arse and its not hard to run very close and not contact, but has to be something allowed for obviously.

Wore a set out coming into savage (i think most ppl did), its not too tyre friendly with all the body roll.

Its understandable stu, no one wants to be repairing their cars all the time, but i guess its the risk you take when you take your car out there. Close racing is the best though, its almost boring watching a spread field.

a "sorry mate" after the race would of made me feel a whole lot better. these things happen and we take the risk but there is no reason to it on purpose (not saying he did).

good to know he ran top 20 in the rally. since our lap times where nearly the same, so might I have. and I bet its had tons more work done on it than mine!! For the record, mine is still 70% standard.

There were black marks on the rear bumper of his car too, but i didn't hear him complaining, thats racing. (sorry im not trying to get up you, your the one out there racing and im standing on the sideline), but it just annoys me what ppl keep saying about it, sure its not ideal, but it does a bloody good job for what it is!

As for mods, i wouldn't call pedders lowered springs a mod!

What has yours got (done to it)

well if its got black marks on it i dont think it was from me. i was fired up and did try to return the favour, but i didnt feel any contact. thats why i had to drop back, i overheated. nothing wrong with close racing, but if you cant do it and not touch...... there's prob nothing wrong with the car( i called it stupid because i had my nose out of joint) but a car dont drive itself.

kings lowered springs, pod filter, 3'' exhaust, strut bar, front and rear camber arms, race tryes. a bigger interccoler is going on it now. the rest is standard.

Raw (Natsoft) race results: http://www.natsoft.com.au/cgi-bin/results....25/02/2007.BASK Last race was Targa A, B & C, some details are a bit dodgy (e.g. there was only one S2000 racing, not two)

Very interesting race that one as well :happy:

Its going to take some doing to tame the wild beast that Andy has unleashed on everyone with his black beast.

Who has what it takes to do so???

eleventy billion horspower!!! :)

I thought it would be a little faster than that......maybe yet to get it sorted though.

Would be incredibly close between the 200SX-R and Tim's Rex!!! What a battle that would be!

I had a good day out there, got rather burnt though.

the move to the new box would allow more pony's to be released as he went thru a number of RB25 boxes previously. i think most reliability issues are have been worked through now. awesome car.

i remeber when he ran the thing at targa as basically a standard road car with a bolt in cage when new... how times change!

been like that since the beginning. that's one reason ive never been interested in driving one of those.

mistakes happen but your proof you can do it.

      That looks good, but I think you're going to need much beefier side skirts now.

      new 1.5 LSD issues/concerns

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      I gotta pull you up on this. It's driving me crazy. A shutter is something that closes, like over a window or in a cmera. The word you want is shudder. That LSD is clearly f**ked. Take it to a diff shop and get it disassembled and examined by an expert. YOu might have plates welded together or something equally crazy.

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Check the Nistune doco. There are a few assumptions being made here that might not be valid. I will list the things that occur to me: Base map. Base map for what? Base map for Z32? Then the cranking pulse width is probably wrong for an RB25. The extra 500cc of capacity might well be enough to prevent it from catching. Base map for RB25? I don't think you can load one of those into a Z32. You have to just make the settings correct for an RB25 in the Z32 base map. That is either K or the TIM to get the pulsewidth right. Loom. You bought a loom for an RB. And you plugged it into a Z32 ECU. Did you make sure that any iwre differences were swapped. From memory, there's at least a couple. And as per the others, I would suggest making sure that the fuel pressure is correct while cranking and that the injectors are actually flowing as expected. They really must come out and go on the bench, unless you do find that you have messed up as per above points. I would also suggest watching in Nistune to make sure that everything is reading correctly. That the correct binary flags are raised at the right time (like the crank signal), that there's no stupid values in K or TIM. That you have not got mismatched firmware for the ECU and/or a wrong image loaded.
