lol Troy, agree with you about doing more laps in my car.. however I have my own theories as to why I was only 1 second slower than u at Sandown... something to do with not driving it on the limit and also a bent lower ball joint :laugh: at PI I had all sorts of issues, and it was my first time there (only did 4 laps). The car is actually quite nice to drive, just need more time behind the wheels to tweak the setup. I may have slightly more power than you (i don't think it's 80kw!), but also more weight.. Hopefully everything with the car is sorted (my ABS is now fixed too! woot) and we can have some more fun :laugh:

Good stuff Matt. I was just guessing that you would be up around the 300rwkws mark. My thing was only running 230rwkws odd at Sandown...though it feels damn strong at that boost. Stronger then it ever has actually...if only my suspension was up to the job of 230rwkws, i have ot drive angry otherwise the car just wont do it :laugh:

And Snowie, we cant beat you guys. But it would be nice to see some lap times beign punched out within cooee of you guys.

But point is...you cant beat going round and round...so will be good to see the EVOs out there mixing it up with Roy

Hehe - I'm only stirring. Mind you last weekend at Sandown there was a 400oddKW Supra on semi's that managed a best time of 1.23.9. It sure was a rocket down the straights. Most laps were in the 24's, 25's. It shows that the time you punched out already is quite impressive.

I was running around 280kw at Sandown.

hahaha *cough* bullshit *cough* :)

Oi Troy you Victorian bitch, you're such a Victorian Victorian that you make Victorian's born in Victorian look less Victorian than you're super Victorian Victorian self. GO VICTORIA! w00t

LOL classic post Adz :fakenopic: Gonna grab the popcorn for this one!

If i was overseas and heard something being described as Victorian, well i think mid 1800s, virginal white dresses and umbrellas and elegant old homes. So im not a very good fit for being Victorian :)

I dunno mate :)

snowbrown, I just injured myself laughing you bastard. I may even need a day off work. I wonder if it counts as a work related injury. I think I somehow broke my colar bone.

gold.

    • The oil pressure sensor for logging, does it happen to be the one that was slowly breaking out of the oil block? If it is,I would be ignoring your logs. You had a leak at the sensor which would mean it can't read accurately. It's a small hole at the sensor, and you had a small hole just before it, meaning you could have lost significant pressure reading.   As for brakes, if it's just fluid getting old, you won't necessarily end up with air sitting in the line. Bleed a shit tonne of fluid through so you effectively replace it and go again. Oh and, pay close attention to the pressure gauge while on track!
    • I don't know it is due to that. It could just be due to load on track being more than a dyno. But it would be nice to rule it out. We're talking a fraction of a second of pulling ~1 degree of timing. So it's not a lot, but I'd rather it be 0... Thicker oil isn't really a "bandaid" if it's oil that is going to run at 125C, is it? It will be thicker at 100 and thus at 125, where the 40 weight may not be as thick as one may like for that use. I already have a big pump that has been ported. They (They in this instance being the guy that built my heads) port them so they flow more at lower RPM but have a bypass spring that I believe is ~70psi. I have seen 70psi of oil pressure up top in the past, before I knew I had this leak. I have a 25 row oil cooler that takes up all the space in the driver side guard. It is interesting that GM themselves recommend 0-30 oil for their Vette applications. Unless you take it to the track where the official word is to put 20-50w oil in there, then take that back out after your track day is done and return to 0-30.
    • Nice, looks great. Nice work getting the factory parts also. Never know when you'll need them.
    • Thanks @jtha7 I will have a look around tomorrow but it is a prick of a spot. These are some photos i tried taking 
    • I take it that the knock retard is from bearings tapping a little tune? Thicker oil is a fragile bandaid. You need a much bigger oil cooler and probably the bigger pump being discussed.
