Seriously it's the best fun ive even had and gives you a great feel for how far your car will go before over or under steering. Oh yer and if the pictures dont provide the explanation heaps of hanging sideways... :)

in the half day how long are you likely to be on the skid pan for?

Last time i went there was 11 cars and we had 4 runs each x 15 odd minutes and some people got a fifth run for an extra 10 odd minutes... This was a morning session only...

Varies i guess and depends on the crowd... :D I'd be expecting that those that go in the half and half session still have the same quota as others just spread over 2 sessions but if the chance comes up for extra runs you have a better chance of more track time.

i've seen the dvd's... better off doing your own (camera work is not good). but the rest of the day is great....

Others have similar thoughts... I didn't mind it, but i wished there was a little more thats all... I am hoping to have the guy there for about the same amount of time but covering both sessions so there will be plenty of cars.

Lemi know and i can get you a copy of our last one... Well i'll get it to the dude that hasn't seen one before... :D

So is there any more takers???

Put me down as interested/temp/fill in - The only reason I haven't jumped in is because I'm still waiting for some race calendars to come out and don't want to miss a good race.

Is this with Dereck or someone else? Does the price drop for group bookings if you have a full house?

Yer this is one with Dereck, you got it... :(

No probs, Ill put you down as "interested but not confirmed". Just keep in mind payment is due by 2nd September. On the topic of payment the price is staying at $125 untill i have a confirmed answer about the DVD package and BBQ. So far it looks like we are getting one and the BBQ will get funded from that so there is no worries for anyone (Well besides me that is :rofl: .

If there is any probs like it doesn't happen ill certainly give you your extra money back either on the day or electronicaly when i find out.

Okay, please count me in. Derecks terrific!

I can't see in the thread how much the DVD package is going to be, have I missed something somewhere?

If theres 10 cars in each session, probably will get around 3 x 15 minute sessions.

People that have expressed interest or in for sure.

Is this still the case? I guess it's just a reminder the payment is due in 7 days.

      Strange issue RB25DET wont start

      By jtha7 · Posted

      Ps i found the below forum and it seems to be the same scenario Im dealing with. Going to check my ECU coolant temp wire tomorrow    From NICOclub forum: s1 RB25det flooding at start up Thu Apr 11, 2013 7:23 am I am completely lost on this. Car ran perfectly fine when I parked it at the end of the year. I took the engine out and painted the engine bay, and put a fuel cell with an inline walbro 255 instead of the in tank unit I had last year. After reinstalling everything, the engine floods when the fuel pump primes. if i pull the fuel pump fuse it'll start, and as soon as I put the fuse back in it starts running ridiculously rich. I checked the tps voltage, and its fine. Cleaned the maf as it had some dust from sitting on a shelf all winter, fuel pressure is correct while running, but wont fire until there is less than 5psi in the lines. The fuel lines are run correctly. I have found a few threads with the same problem but no actual explanation of what fixed it, the threads just ended. Any help would be appreciated. Rb25det s1 walbro255 fuel pump nismo fpr holset hx35 turbo fmic 3" exhaust freddy intake manifold q45tb q45 maf   Re: s1 RB25det flooding at start up Fri Apr 12, 2013 5:07 am No, I didn't. I found the problem though. There was a break in one of the ecu coolant temp sensor wires. Once it was repaired it fired right up with no problems. I would have never thought a non working coolant temp sensor would have caused such an issue.

      Strange issue RB25DET wont start

      Hi sorry late reply I didnt get a chance to take any pics (my mechanics on the other side of the city) but the plugs were fouled from being too rich. I noticed the MAF wasn't genuine, so I replaced it with a genuine green label unit. I also swapped in a different ignitor, but the issue remains. I've narrowed it down a bit now: - If I unplug and reconnect the fuel lines and install fresh spark plugs, the car starts right up and runs perfectly. Took it around the block with no issues - As soon as I shut it off and try to restart, it won't start again - Fuel pressure while cranking is steady around 40 psi, injectors have good spray, return line is clear, and the FPR vacuum is working. It just seems like it's getting flooded after the first start I unplugged coolant sensors to see if its related to ECU flooding but that didnt make a difference. Im thinking its related to this because this issue only started happening after fixing coolant leaks and replacing the bottom part of the stock manifolds coolant pipe. My mechanic took off the inlet to get to get to do these repairs. My mechanics actually just an old mate who's retired now so ill be taking it to a different mechanic who i know has exp with RBs to see if they find anything. If you have any ideas please send em lll give it a try. Ive tried other things like swapping the injectors, fuel rail, different fuel pressure regs, different ignitor, spark plugs, comp test and MAF but the same issue persists.

      Freddy Plenum vs Genuine options RB25

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      My return flow is custom and puts the return behind the reo, instead of at the bottom. All my core is in the air flow, rather than losing some of it up behind the reo. I realise that the core really acts more as a spiky heatsink than as a constant rate heat exchanger, and that therefore size is important.... but mine fits everything I needed and wanted without having to cut anything, and that's worth something too. And there won't be a hot patch of core up behind the reo after every hit, releasing heat back into the intake air.

      R33 persistent issues. P/steering and lag/misfire

      By Murray_Calavera · Posted

      There is a really fun solution to this problem, buy a Haltech (or ECU of your choice) and put the MAF in the bin.  I'm assuming your going to want more power in future, so you'll need to get the ECU at some stage. I'd put the new MAF money towards the new ECU.
