For those who don't know about M3 Challenge it's a PC game created to publicise the release of the latest BMW M3.

To download it (its free) go to www.m3-challenge.com

The SAU Challenge:

Had enough practice? Then post up your times and include:

- The track

- The level of electronic assists you used ie traction control, stability control, ABS

I'm still mega sh*t so I need more practice before I crack a decent lap.

GREAT :thumbsup:

the team did better than expected 12th outright - was as good as a win for them. They got a podium for the Carrera Cup race as well. Got to spend the 2 days in the teams corporate area with the sponsors and Porsche drivers.

didn't get to talk to Brighty though, just g'day as he walked past

i think i can knock off a second or 2 off that lap as it included a small visit to the grassy bits

I was really impressed with Bowe running in the top 10, it's a pity he didn't finish there. But still a great job! I was looking for you throughout the coverage but JB's garage wasn't covered too well.

I managed to knock off .400 off that time as well but that's pretty much my limit. Now I'm trying with all assists off.

i just had a look into the lap times of some of the Europeans and they are down to 2.11 - 2.13 around the GP with no aids !!!!!

how depressing

I was looking for you throughout the coverage but JB's garage wasn't covered too well.

i spent most of the time when the car was out on track in the PCR corporate areas with their Carrera Cup drivers, some top blokes in there

      GTR R34 Limp Mode

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Has equal chance of cleaning an AFM and f**king an AFM. I think you can work out what happened. When the Hitachi ECU sees the AFM die and goes into the associated limp mode, then it will start and run just fine, because it ignores the AFM and just runs on idle maps that will do what it needs to get it going. But there is no proper load signal, so that's about all it can do. My suggestion? If you don't want to go full aftermaket ECU, then get some R35 GTR AFM cards and some housings to put them in, in the stock location, and Nistune the ECU. Better to do a good upgrade than just replace shitty 40 year old tech with the same 40 year old tech.

      GTR R34 Limp Mode

      By steven7270 · Posted

      So my car was recently having trouble starting on initial crank, I would need to feather the gas for it to start up but besides that it would start and run fine. So I clicked the idle air control valve (with throttle body cleaner) and cleaned the MAF sensors (with MAF cleaner). The start up issue was fixed and now the car turns over without the assist of the throttle, but the car is in limp mode and wont rev past 2.5k RPM. From what I understand the IACV would not put the car in limp mode, so I am to believe it is the MAF sensors, but it was running fine before and now I cant get it out of limp mode. I cleaned the MAF made sure the o rings were seated properly. Made sure the cables were plugged in properly, the cables also both read the same voltage. Does anybody know why this is or what could be causing this or how to get it out of limp mode?

      Rusty roof repair

      Thanks. Yeah I realised that there's no way I'd be able to cover the holes with the filler, it would just fall through. Thanks again @GTSBoy!

      That was the reason I asked. If you were going to be fully bodge spec, then that type of filler is the extreme bodge way to fill a large gap. But seeing as you're going to use glass sheet, I would only use that fibre reinforced filler if there are places that need a "bit more" after you've finished laying in the sheet. Which, ideally, you wouldn't. You might use a blob of it underneath the sheet, if you need to provide some support from under to keep the level of your sheet repair up as high as it needs to be, to minimise the amount of filler you need on top. Even though you're going bodge spec here, using glass instead of metal, the same rules apply wrt not having half inch deep filler on the top of the repair. Thick filler always ends up shitting the bed earlier than thin filler.
