Red32? dont remember one of those?? was there anything that made it stand out? oh, you had the one with the nice doors!

I have some footage of mats, ill put it on youtube unless you have some webspace...

although he is watching atm, so he may be doing it already :cheers:

Looks like you all had a great weekend.

I hate missing out on DECA..oh well next time..

Also great pics guys... :cheers:

x2 :blush:

i'm moving to WA for a year in Jan, but i'm going to come back over and take the cobwebs off my car and have a play with you guys again!! (if i'm allowed :ph34r::w00t:)

Well I don't know where to start, maybe with the highlights!

- The Honeymoon suite, do i need to say anymore!

- Big Red is the most awesome car on the planet (Seriously!), soooo much fun to drive! :ph34r::cheers:

- Having Rob, Mark & Sean at their first Deca! Thanks for coming up guys, i'm sure you will be back.

- Taco Bills and the hot sauce, possibly the worst experience of my entire life! And the culprit is still feeling very average about the whole 'incident'.

- Mav learning how to pole dance at the strippers on the main stage, best $40 we've ever spent and i've never laughed soo much!

- Handbags laughing so hard at Mav on the main stage at the stippers that he fell off his chair :blush:

- Vadg you are a legend! Thanks for being a good sport! :rant:

- The 8 hour mission home, Shepparton to Brighton (to drop Big Red off) to Eltham (to drop the trailer off) to Brighton (to drop the X5 off) to Malvern (Finally home). Such an exhausting day!

- Thanks to the officials for making that event happen, the conditions were terrible, sooo hot with so many flies, you guys did really well!

That's about it for now.

Looking forward to the next one! :w00t:

Thanks for inviting me Juzzy and organising everything else for us, had a ball, even though i dont think i successfully completed one driving task.

As for the hot sauce incident.... the guilty puppydog look on his face as if he was getting told off for shitting on the carpet when you were having words with him out the back of Taco Bills..... priceless.

Sorry you had to go though that agony for our entertainment. As for the naughty puggydog you are an evil evil person to pull a gag like that knowing how much trouble you were getting yourself into. I love it.

Thanks for everybody who gave their time over the weekend for us so we could just drive in and tear up. Cheers.

Rob

Hey can someone / anyone with video footage and skills please put together a battles only vid for me?

Do you want like a mixed together sorta of clip... with music and editing and stuff or just the raw footage?

Also do you want deca just gone only or clips from any deca...

I can probably have a bit of a play tonight....

Matt anything you want to put together is fine. Infact if you have something from past DECA's as well that would be super as the battles this time weren't regularly as close as some previous ones we have done.

And not necessarily of me / my car but of any good ones is what I am after.

i took my other one to Beaurepairs on Monday and it was $29 for them to fix

so will just take this one there tomorrow

they said about the first one that it was fairly close to the edge so keep an eye on it

this one, i couldnt see a nail sticking out but when i was changing it, i could hear it hissing

Also, out of interest, did anyone else end up with screws in their tyre? I woke up sunday morning to find 1 almost deflated front right tyre, and about 4 screws in my left rear tyre, which I know for a fact I got from the DECA facility. Rather disappointed that I now have one tyre which is pretty much fubar, and another that I will need to get repaired, damaged from screws floating around at DECA lol.

All the screws came from bigred's boot locking machanism - j/k

Results are still being processed. Sorry!

I havn't been home any night this week so far, and tonight is no different. I'll see what I can do.

    • Sounds like you've got an interesting adventure ahead here with local support if you have trouble! My guess is that, unboosted, you will be OK with a small upgrade like -9. What will happen is that once the stock ECU sees more airflow than it expects it will add a heap of fuel and pull a heap of timing to be safe because it can't understand how it could get that much air without there being an issue. You will see clouds of black smoke and it won't pull hard through the midrange and top end. So, overall it will be a bit frustrating but should be OK. If you are still nervous set the base timing back 2o through the CAS, but it will be even more sluggish everywhere. As said above through...this is not my guarantee your engine won't be blown into a million pieces, leaving you looking for very hard to find parts A better idea is get a computer with logging ASAP, wire in a wide band O2 sensor and a use remote tuner. I've done multiple cars this way and while it is not as good as a specific tune on a dyno they can get it 90% right. I'd suggest if you can afford an R33 GTR these days you can afford an ECU and tune. And if you can't afford that you sure won't be able to afford the rebuild if it goes bad in the meantime,.  
    • Yeah it would be nice if someone took the time to put that sort of information together, but there are a lot of variations in looms. I think you are making this way hard for yourself if you just want to get it running....sourcing an SR20 with the right wiring will be a billion times easier than matching the RB loom to an S15 chassis. If you do end up going this way, you just need to trace every wire in the loom with a multimeter, 95% of them will go to a location you can confirm at the ECU.....and then post it up for the next person who needs it  
    • Just top it up with water, and keep a general idea of how much you added. It is normal for water to be pushed into and pulled out of the reservoir through the cap, and it should not be more than half full or it will be likely to overflow when hot. Any decent mechanic can do a pressure test of the cooling system to confirm if you have a leak. Keep in mind if it is only leaking a little and when hot it may well evaporate before you see it hit the ground
    • I'd ask the shop what they used and use that. Mixing coolants is sometimes OK, sometimes not, and you have know the details of each coolant to know whether it's a good idea or not.
    • Is it alright to top up with just another green coolant?
