I had a blast yesterday apart from the weather, car issues and it being freezing.

It was a great day a big thanks to the Peter and Adam for getting it happening for us.

I started the day off really poorly with getting the car back together at 3 in the morning then it would start on the day, got it sorted and arrived a little late. The first few runs I had issues selecting gears and made as small pedal adjustment to give more clutch bite. Ran a few more times and laid down a few high 12's. Everything was running well so dialled in the N20. Ran a 12.337 then a 12.028 off a 6k launch with a 1.654 60 footer. I was pumped I retuned the nitrous jets for a 100 shot and was ready to run that 11. Thats when the bracket racing started and unfortunately the rain too so it was all over.

It was great to meet a few more SAU people and put faces to forum names etc, gotta get some of those ARC winglets Baron look cool.

Adam you should of told me about your car, I could have dropped my car off at home ( 15 minutes away) then picked up yours and taken you both home, I didnt even realise or know you had an issue with the driveshaft thats a real shame you were running very well.

    • GTSboy, thank you again. i’ve been reading all the other SAU RB25 vacuum line threads and you have the utmost patience for people asking “where do my vacuum lines go”. it’s appreciated. i did also enlist a few other RB guys local to me.  i would like to run 5 to 4. turbo pressure side to wastegate actuator. i would like to run 3 to 1. power steering air valve line to intercooler outlet. (this is how it was previously). i was told 2 is the bleed port for the boost solenoid - which i’m not running - so should be capped.   anyone see any problems with that?    
    • So yes. All of them. Something like 98% of all fuel in the USA has 10% ethanol: https://afdc.energy.gov/fuels/ethanol-fuel-basics It's labelled as like, AKI, 87, 91, 93 with an E10 or E5 or E15 label on the pump. At a certain point, it's not just "E10" instead of 91. It is 91, 95, 98, and all of them have 10% Ethanol in them. You can also get E85 and E30 which is why you do see some people rolling around with E30 tunes in them.
    • Thanks for the response. This is an 04 EP3 Type R. JDM spec. Fairly certain they're just basic BC racing coils. I do plan to keep as the ride quality on stock I've been told is pretty meh given Sydney roads. If I were to go down that avenue, does NSW require them to be a certain spec (close to original) etc?
    • Should have asked what is the car?
    • I've had two super conflicting experiences with blue slips. My 30 year old E39 waltzed through with no issues but my brother in law was knocked back on 12 y/o 3 series due to wiper blades and some cracking in a control arm bush.  What kind of coil overs? Do you want to keep them after?  If it was me I'd get some dirt cheap shocks and springs from eBay or scumtree. Not ideal but will get you over the line and might even be less than $1k.
