im guessing u'rs was the 33 with the only SAU stickers on it i was hopeing to chat to you day but missed u due to the dyno.

altho show was below standed. semi we got to put in abig club display. the only 1/2 decent club display was allure and obseive.

trader standes were down. so was the dyno with only one dyno, and the amount of cars.

went today to offer LTHL some "support"....

as always pretty crappy.. nothing really outstanding.. except for all the fully sick fluro shirts and crazy hairstyles... some people should be shot.

I did like the bikes though.

Went today.. while down melbourne for the weekend.

Must say, was missing cars, no GT-R's. A few GTS-T.

The 180 made a new record. 251kw/ltr.

and overall hp too.

Saw the Supra on the dyno. 726.1KW? I think. Below last years. He made 749KW last year?

STEVEM's S15 was very nice.

The gold plated turbos in the QSR BMW was big. The car took away more then 8 Trophies.

Overall, lacked in girls and cars.

Bike display was low too. There were more parked outside of the centre then inside.

Ah well... see what happens...

Whens the finals?

Saw LTHL's car and looked around for the owner but couldnt find him. Was gonna introduce myself after seeing the SAU stickers.

My fav car was probably a blueish 180. Looked insane. The guy went all out as well. The words 180 and Nissan were all over the car. He even managed to get the word "nissan" in the middle of his subwoofer. Very nice.

Was hoping to see more skylines. Saw both the holder and the supra dyno runs. Pretty damn crazy.

Well the bikes were more than last year, of which there were none :(

So the bikes that were there actually caught my eye quite well.

Was a good addition

Finals are Nov

yeah was my first AS in a couple years and i found the standard was really awesome.

Couple cars that stood out was the

Series 5 RX7 with the supra abflug kit, looked awesome. As well as the ABFlug supra sitting next to it with the airbrushing (tasteful airbrushing)

The baby blue wrx with suicide doors and hydraulics...

And the new Euroline car club made a good impression at the entrance.

Seemed to me a lot less rice and more performance than 2 years ago when I went last.

Euroline Automotive was a trade stand, they do bodykits / custom paint jobs etc..

But yes they had a good set up.

My friends Blue Kitted RX8 was with their stand.

      Looking for someone with a R34 front bar

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

      They are daft and there's a reason it never caught on. Steering feel? We don't need no stinking steering feel!

      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.
