That settles it...

After Texikhana Im joining SAU NSW and applying for my CAMSLS2's so that I can compete whenever it suits me...

I like the idea of doing hillclimb too.

Only one problem.... Cash (or lack of it).

I'm in as well, this is going to be so much fun!!! Those videos on the NSW Texi link are great!

So what are we doing Saturday night? I have this image in my mind of 40 skylines going over commonwealth ave bridge and consuming all 3 lanes.

I'm excited! :D

Im not sure that I want to park my car in Queanbeyan on a Saturday night thanks...

haha dont blame you... i'm cabbing it, or getting a lift, cos i want to drink beeeeer in the beer garden :blink:

if anyone wants to come along we will be at Walsh's from around 4pm onwards... everyone's welcome & we will be having dinner there too.

and BTW, if anyone is keen to do the Texikhana as a last minute thing, there's about 3 or 4 spots up for grabs, so if you want to have a go let us know ASAP!!

In other news; We were notified a few hours ago that the skid pan at Sutton Road has been double booked and we are to be bumped. It is booked by the Stay Upright people and is a long term booking.

Sutton Road are most apologetic and have offered us a deal to make up for it so that we can still have fun. We considered cancelling the event but after much talk we realised that we are in it to the hilt and would incur significant costs to do so.

The deal offered is that we get refunded the money paid for the dry skid pan and we get the wet skid pan they have for free. We also get a discount on the back track which is still available to us. This equates to a $30-40 per entrant refund. Further more, we will get an unspecified discount on the next hiring of the facility which will be good.

It is proposed that the refund be kept by the club to be put towards entry for the next Texikhana (on the proper skid pan), meaning that everyone who enters this time gets $30-40 off the next event and priority entry. Those who did not enter this time will pay the full price.

Further in relation to price, future Texikhanas will be cheaper than this first one because we have incurred a number of one off costs. Also for those buying AASA licences, it covers you for 12 months and as mentioned above we will get a discounted rate at least for the very next one if not others into the future. We would like to get entry fees down under $50.

The Executive have discussed the situation and believe that we can still have a lot of fun on Sunday. We actually wanted the wet skid pan originially in addition to the dry one and the back track but it was too expensive to have all 3. It is a next to no tyre wear track which can be drifted or driven and is quite difficult to go around fast.

We have some ideas for making it competetive and difficult so we are sure you will enjoy yourselves. Don't forget that us organisers are also fully paid up entrants so we looked at this from both angles and are still keen.

We are sorry to have to change the format of the day like this but hope that incentives offered will make up for it. We do not doubt that everyone will have fun. If anyone is feeling particularly hard done by then I will entertain requests for refunds in full or in part by pm only.

This is not our fault at all and this is the best we can do with the unfortunate situation.

Thanks guys. See you all Sunday or before.

Adam.

As per NSW Texikhana thread... I'm still trying to get my head around all this. Might be worth phoning people if you have their numbers and know they were going to give them time to re-evaluate, it will certainly make a difference to what car/tyres I will be running.

      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)?
