Cheers Mike :cheers:

was just great to finally launch the car for the 1st time after 10 months :P

we kept the rev limits low to 7500 to play it safe & boost was only 1.8 bar

60 foots ended up at 1.3 so still another couple of 10ths there but fantastic to see the car back up & running.

it runs straight as you like which really helps confidence in it & just seems like it could take twice the power without any probs.

Just testing testing & more testing now really to get some time in the seat & learn where to save some time & crank the power up slowly

8.5 @ 161mph and still on low boost with no NOS :)

AWESOME to hear, sounds like its going to go VERY fast...

John has asked me to post the following as he's got internet problems at the moment..

Well I have contacted http://www.andra.com.au/ asking for permission to run next year, fingers crossed & if ok will then contact the tracks for permission.

Looking at the dates we have decided to run in BOTH of the Sydney & Perth Summer Nationals so really hope we can run.

Have also sent an e-mail to HTL asking if there is any chance of a joint run - a long shot I know but if you don't ask - lol

God knows if I will get the chance to do this again so worth a go

John.

Thanks guys - well now have approval from Andra to run who have been really really helpful which is great news :rolleyes:

Perth Motorplex have also confirmed they are happy for us to run so only waiting on WSID now & it's all systems go which is amazing :(

We will run in the Super Sedan class when we are over in Aus & for me this is a dream come true - a pile of testing to do here in the UK between now & the end of October & we will bust a gut to see hopefully a 7sec run before the car gets put into a container & shipped.

I can feel a lot of beers coming on in Feb/March 2008 :sorcerer:

;) Each time this is updated, it just gets better and more exciting!!

Well done; awesome run :D

    • A 1.5 way is a 2 way. It is just a 2 way with a less aggressive ramp on overrun.
    • The ABS and/or TCS being missing/broken will not cause the engine to misbehave. It just casues CEL to come on and annoy you. The CEL is useless if it is always on, so you have to do the things you have to do to get rid of it, so it can be useful. Being a Stag ECU, then yes, it will not expect TCS to be present. But it will expect ABS to be present and working. You will need to either make the ABS CU talk to the ECU (don't ask me what that will take on an NA R34), and make sure the hardware is working....or, you just need to blank it out in Nistune. Do not persist with the stock ECU. You will just have problems. Gte it Nistuned. Start from there. DO YOU HAVE A BOOST SENSOR? The ECU's boost sensor that it. It is connected to the loom at the rear of the coil cover. Usually rides on the firewall on an R34, but is usually bolted down to a bracket along with all the other crap at the back of the coil cover when a Neo is dropped into another car. If you do not have it, the ECU will shit the bed. So, do you have one?
    • So sadly the fuel pump etc was not it. The pump and filter is new and it is still cutting around 4000 rpm. A read something about ABS/TCS (engine is from stagea and ECU too so no TCS) and i dont know for 100% that my car has ABS. It has ABS "cube" in engine bay but i dont think it works(or at least from my braking experience). Can be something like that?  I will be driving the car next week to Nistune tuner to properly see what is wrong...  
    • the Tomei LSD fluid with lsd kit. frustrated that it was shaking the car to crap and affecting everything else negatively, I pulled the diff last night, and removed the lsd carrier, could not find anything wrong, however it seem to be 100 locked up acceleration, and deacceleration, wondering if they sent me a 2 way not a 1.5??  either way I installed the stock open carrier back in place. test drove everything smooth as butter again. no shake, shutter, random, what felt like clutch slip and grab or drive shaft play, etc. something differently wrong in side the lsd. I might bother taking it apart (if possible) to figure out what's going on inside this carrier, as bought too long ago to return.  only draw back is its back to a one wheel wonder.
