http://www.cams.com.au/content.asp?PageID=Clubs and look at all the different club sites to see what is on when.

Usually if I want to go somewhere I check the following club calanders other than ours/wrx:

AROCV

Maserati

FPV XR / HSV Clubs (run events together - am doing Winton with them this Saturday)

HSCC

PIARC (what we did on the weekend. Next one is Oct 20/21)

MSCA

But Scotsman and I did keep the weekend a little on the low down as we just wanted a quiet settle in run before our public return. :thumbsup:

You realise Aaron that this will be the 1st time we have actually been on the track together with working cars? Other than your original trip to PI when the car was basically stock.

So it's the first real 05 v 06 SAU Club Champion showdown. :thumbsup:

Kennedy has stripped his car and is running slicks so we are no longer "competing" against him as such. It is no longer a street car.

They aren't slicks - just have less grooves than RE55's, Hoosier stylz :D

He thinks that they aren't as sticky as RE55's anyway.

Sandown will be good. A pity the stig won't be there.

They have a UTQG of 0. lol.

Mark Webber drives around with grooves in his tyres but you don't call them street tyres. They are slicks.

It depends on what exact model of Hoosier he is using because the A3S05/R3S05 Hoosiers have a UTQG of 40 and they look mighty similar to his and the one in your pic for that matter.

Also, if they were considered to be as sticky as a slick wouldn't CAMS require the cars fitted with these to have cages fitted?

      Yeah nice idea, you mean to suction it to the gauges? I hadn't thought of that.

      Why am I hitting a power wall with my stroked RB25?

      By Dose Pipe Sutututu · Posted

      A few suggestions: Do you have the option of retarding your exhaust cam gear to bring the power band over to the left? VCT would be turned off after you make peak torque, you see the power/torque will decay faster with it left on all the way to the limiter Once VCT is turned off, you'll find the motor will take a bit more timing being ramped in Send its mum, more boost! Of course, depends on your exhaust pressure.

      Why am I hitting a power wall with my stroked RB25?

      By TurboTapin · Posted

      I was back on the dyno again yesterday after completely revamping my methanol injection system. I was making 440kw at 19psi. Great, this is more then I was making last summer with my old meth system at that pressure, and I figured it would be smooth sailing up to 30+psi. We continued increasing from there and by 25psi, I had only hit 455kw. Dyno sadly lost utility power at this point and I left. We seemed to be on course to hit the same power wall as last summer (477kw@27psi). This is a built RB25 S1 stroked to a 2.8. Built and ported head with Kelford 272/262 cams. Precision 6466 Turbo. Tuner last year believed the power wall is a mix of RPM limitations (Hydro lifters/Limit set at 7600RPM) and fueling. With my new meth system, we're seeing zero knock now but it still won't go up.  What else can I do at this point? Here's my train of thought.  - It's clear from the dyno graph that I would easily make power to 8500+RPM but I'm limited to 7600RPM. I could risk increasing my limiter, but hydro lifters have me worried. What are my options here besides going NEO head or solid lifter conversion? I'm rocking a 1.05AR turbine on my 6466. Would dropping down to a .84 help shift that power down in anyway? - We're only seeing roughly a 30kw difference at the top end with VCT on or off. Is this normal? I want to confirm VCT is working properly. - Should I look into other cam options?  - Should I just keep increasing boost and see if she wakes up later on? I would expect to hit 600rwkw around 35psi with my 6466.
