JB's thoughtful team manager sold his car 2 weeks before the race so he's out of a ride for the race and next year :(

Damn man thats gotta suck for him and you!! Not even sure if we are going in 2 weeks yet!! We are drumming up some sponsorship with a guy that worked for Mclaren F1 and has since retired back here! He's looking at starting up a F3 team, Hopefully for us this come thru, we will see!! Whats JB gonna be doing now?? Has he any plans?? He must own a car himself to race surely!!

Yeh nice sounds like you beast is coming along quite well then!!

Yeh the prac day didn't turn out the best, but hey, I think it might take a while for people to get into the whole club thing, and especially people not wanting to drive out to Mallala, but meh! I drive there prob at least 20 times a year if not more!!

Well mines still going so thats a good thing, NO defects, NO speeding fines, NO cop hastles at all, NO crashes and NO attempted breakins anymore!! i am touching wood whilst i say this tho!

There was a few that rocked up, personally i didn't even go over there because we were working on the race car elsewhere in the pits, did speak with Steve out there. I'm sure the club will be fine, as you would know not everyone in the club will be interested in track days, driving or watching!!

Yeh Mallala isn't that far at all, people just think it's in the middle of nowhere, which it is but just about 45min from CBD!!

Hour and a half until i taste the sweet sweet flavours of BEER!!

Anyone going to the Classic Adelaide Street Party tonight??

    • Given you're running a 2.8 and my 2.5 is not really like for like, I suspect there could be a bit more timing you could give it. What is the kW yield per degree you're putting through it? Here's my E85 map to give you an idea, where it was I could still get another 3~4kW per degree thrown at it.  
    • It turns out that Setrab make a fan specifically for the oil cooler which is great and I've installed it with minimal swearing. I removed my 2x 12in push fans from the front of my aircon condenser and wired them into this. My main thermo fans kick on when I use the aircon anyway and would effectively already be working as puller fans through the condensor which is infront of the rad. The push fans (understandably) didn't really do much in the config they were previously in so now they're out. Now we're on to the "Oil fan doesn't really do much either!". Yes I'll duct it next if it does nothing in heavy use which it shouldn't. But hey, the object exists and fits great and is cool. Let me have this. The car is still in the "do my fittings leak oil now? do my wheels actually rub?" phase. I did a spirited drive on them and didn't hear or feel anything. Then I got back home and noticed there were grind marks on the inside of the rims, though I couldn't see where they were touching I got out the grinder and attacked the suspects. Note: I do not know how to use a grinder. Then I realised I had dragged my new rims across my concrete driveway before I did this drive. I didn't think I had damage at that time when I briefly looked...... but remembered this occurred after I did all the angle grinding. The grinding on the wheels in some very specific spots. It's not around the whole rim for example, which lines up with dragging it across concrete more than hitting a suspension component for even 1 full rotation. So everything is currently painted and taped up and I need to test it some more to see if it really IS rubbing, but from inside the car it doesn't feel like it is. In other news I attempted to do a before and after comparison of the heads/cam upgrade thing. Dynos lie, everything is in different measurements. Here is the data from the sandown back straight. Car go faster than before. Vroom vroom.
    • Here's my base ignition. +3 correction to redline when shooting water/meth which is always on. Looking at my old ignition table, I should be able to add 1-2 degree's next time I'm on the dyno.  Let me know your thoughts. 
    • Given what I know now - same haha, but this was 12 years ago with second hand 740cc Nismo injectors in my S15 daily, I was too busy hunting elsewhere for the issue to even look at the injectors, running through some cleaner was a happy coincidence haha
    • Not a terrible idea. But if I ever had concerns that my injectors were sufficiently dirty to be causing me a problem, they would be out of the engine and onto the actual injector cleaner/testing bench.
