Dont thank me man. We've all been telling you to do it, i've just pushed you into it more. You didnt seem to blow as much smoke anymore so it was worth the 25min wait anyway. And if you think its better then good stuff. Also it didnt smell as bad so even better.

But you will have to go get it tuned. Btw lee man, as much as this is going to make you think no way, i rekon you should go take the car with you and say camello or someone and throw it on the dyno for a shoot out run at dallas workshop. See what your really pushing. He doesnt have to touch anything just put it on the dyno, run it and then done. But yeah.

Glad about the ecu reset tho. Over time its good to do a reset. Gets rid of some minor bugs.

Im bored as of my car. I went to blathaskite for some practice launches.. Man... Cant practice on that crap... all the roads are shit... I either bogged down or i spun all through 1st and some of 2nd... :D The strip is awsome for awd launching. How did you RWDs like it? Better to launch on strip or on normal road?

Good to hear lee!! Your gunna smash me on the strip now!

We should have a dyno day! get a number of us to go see Dalby at the same time, ask for discount..

So who else wants a run on the Dyno??

couple years ago i took my old car to him and he was good to me. only adjusted air flow and stuff but improved performance.

Dyno day sounds good, which workshop dyno are we talkiing about?

Some photos have been updated on cadra website

Once again there is a thing in the paper about Hoons, but to my surprise The baney brothers are saying its not the hoons that are the issue, how about drink drivers and busted ass cars.

I dont care how many things are posted in the paper but they said Hoons are giving the drag strip a bad name.. How are hoons giving it a bad name when the thing is open once a damn month?.

Ah well. I guess just reading about it makes me a bit pissed.

If dallas is interested sat/sun some time after the drags could be good.

If numbers are only small we could do it on a weekday say after 5pm.

Has anyone had their car done there recently? How are the cars strapped down?

Cost per car/run?

Whats the most hp/kw his dyno has seen?

Will he allow GTRs in RWD (fuse pulled)?

I remember seeing a dyno at intune many years ago and TAFE still has theirs. Both probably weren't that accurate.

Hoon articles again :rolleyes: Hopefully some good news about the drags in Fridays edition :)

i got mine dun a month ago its 88 dolers for 3 runs its a 500 hp dyno his had it read 460hp before and there cars r straped down preety good just dont let his touch it and hell let u on there ozzy in rwd sory to say wont be a t the drags got to paint kurts car over the weekend cause it got keyed and he has to go power cruz next week

    • Here is the mess that I made. That filler there was successful in filling dents in that area. But in the middle area. I can feel dents. And I've gone ocer it multiple times with filler. And the filler is no longer there because i accidently sanded it away. I've chased my tail on this job but this is something else lol. So I'm gonna attempt filler one more time and if it doesn't work I'll just high fill primer the door and see where the issues are because guidecoat is of no use atm.
    • Ok, so I think I sort of figured out where I went wrong. So I definitely overthinked it, and I over sanded, which is probably a large part of the problem. to fix it, I ended up tapping some spots that were likely to be high, made them low, filled them in, and I tackled small sections at a time, and it feels a lot better.    I think what confused me as well is you have the bare metal, and some spots darker and some are lighter, and when I run my finger across it, it' would feel like it's a low spot, but I think it's just a transition in different texture from metal to body filler.    When your finger's sliding on the body filler, and crosses over to the bare metal, going back and forth, it feels like it's a low spot. So I kept putting filler there and sanding, but I think it was just a transition in texture, nothing to do with the low or high spot. But the panel's feels a lot better, and I'm just going to end up priming it, and then I'll block it after with guide coat.   Ended up wasting just about all of my filler on this damn door lol  
    • -10 is plenty for running to an oil cooler. When you look at oil feeds, like power steering feeds, they're much smaller, and then just a larger hose size to move volume in less pressure. No need for -12. Even on the race cars, like Duncans, and endurance cars, most of them are all running -10 and everything works perfectly fine, temps are under control, and there's no restrictions.
    • Update: O2 sensor in my downpipe turned out to be faulty when I plugged in to the Haltech software. Was getting a "open circuit" warning. Tons of carbon buildup on it, probably from when I was running rich for a while before getting it corrected. Replaced with new unit and test drove again. The shuffle still happens, albeit far less now. I am not able to replicate it as reliably and it no longer happens at the same RPM levels as before. The only time I was able to hear it was in 5th going uphill and another time in 5th where there was no noticeable incline but applying more throttle first sped it up and then cleared it. Then once in 4th when I slightly lifted the throttle going over a bump but cleared right after. My understanding is that with the O2 sensor out, the ECU relies entirely on the MAP tune and isn't able to make its small adjustments based on the sensors reading. All in all, a big improvement, though not the silver bullet. Will try validating the actuators are set up correctly, and potentially setting up shop time to tune the boost controller on closed loop rather than the open loop it is set to now. Think if it's set up on closed loop to take the O2 reading, that should deal with these last bits. Will try to update again as I go. 
    • More so GReddy oil relocation kits, sandwich plates, etc. all use 10AN fittings. And same, I've only used 10AN and my car sees track work (circuit, doing laps, not 10 sec squirt business).
