scotsman any chance i could get you to do driver training with me please?

Screw chris, he's a hack probably put you into a wall or something. Could be worse though you could get ryan and in that case you'll end up having to get jack to tow you home because he will have blown up your engine! :laughing-smiley-014:

My driver trainer is V8 Supercars 2 on Xbox, did a 59 second lap around Sandown hahaha, wooooooooooooooooo

Been looking through youtube for some incar videos, but most of the cars on there are slow, 1.35-1.40's.....

Wheres some Jack Footage around Sandown when you need it.

Edit: Found this Porsche Cayman S one on google videos, not to bad... still not super fast

Haha - my very first track day way back when I'd been playing V8 Supercars 2 on my PS2 to learn the track and as I hit turn 1 for the 1st time at full speed I was unsure where to brake. But I knew in the game I was braking at the 100m mark and I figured the cars in the game were going faster than me so I guessed 100m was going to be a safe spot for me to start out at.

:cheers:

Luckily for me I didn't also try and test out whether the kink was flat out like it is in the game afterwards.

hahahahah just clocked a 58 second lap.... its crap tho, i'm doing nearly 300k/h before turn 1 from a standing start on the grid!! hahah my arse.

Yeah trying to get my head around the kink at the back about how fast to be taking that, more important to set yourself up for the left hander after it i think....

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By Kapr · Posted

      Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler

      Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?
