I said the car is still coming, even if I cant

Hi Guys/gals,

Would you like me to see if phatass is available to help you with numbers? Better still, when you book the day with Daniel or Glen ask them to see if Terry's car is ready. There's 1000 hp to help you all out.

This is your event, not ours and if you would like me to ask the club to assist with numbers then I'll do what I can, but I'll wait for your final decision before I go and do that.

We have an idea for a points system, if you want to include this as 1 of the 3 events to be included in the Skyline v Supra.

One of these ideas is that the vehicle must be involved in at least 2 of the 3 events to obtain full points for their team.

I'm happy to come along to assist in any way poss'. Once we've got a solid day of either the 8th or 9th, and a solid start time, can someone pm me please? I say lets get together with the Supra lads; a bit of cross pollination never hurt! The few of them I know are good fellas (good to see you on here, Nico! How's the silver beastie coming along?). I'm a sucker for ANY car that's put together well. Anyhoo, Skylines can hold their own on a dyno. Cases in point: Widebody, RH9, Phatass, and if my memory serves me well, GZ R33 and Whytry are no slouches, either. There are some awesomely strong GTS-T's out there, too. I remember a marone 33 at 350 ATW Kw from their RB25 at another dyno day that made a few sit up and take notice...

So, someone invite the Supra lads, and let's have a get together!

P.S. Please don't forget my pm on final date and time!!

I will be up for it if the supras come. Otherwise i will just wait for the track day to be my first event in the GTR.

PS, i also have to sort some things out first. (run the engine in ETC. Small things)

Hey Jayce. Supra is getting a gearbox recondition. All the shennanigans finally caught up with me. Engine-wise things are good and getting better each time. Finally have reliable fuel delivery and boost control. Next I'll be increasing the size of the rear housing on the turbo. Midrange has increased immensely with the Autronic but the turbo is running out of puff.

I bought a spare block :rolleyes: couldn't help myself. Taking the time to choose the right turbo. Hanging out with Daniel and Glen is bad :P But it will be a built engine and worked head.

How is your beast coming along?

Dyno day is booked for the 8th of March 10am. I just need to go in and have a chat to the guys. Will need to confirm how many r33 gtrs are taking part, as they take a while to setup. Also if other people are interested, rexes take some time, so too many of them are not too good.

At the moment happy for some supra boys to take part (btw looks like terrys car wont be ready). Looking at a max of 30 cars, don't think we'll reach that many though lol.

Cost will be 50$ + 5$ donation to sau.

No one pike! :D

If you would like me to formally invite the Supra Club, please let me know and I'll start a thread. I'll try and keep to at least 10 Supra's unless you would like me to try and get more.

Can I safely say that this is the 1st of the 3 events between Skylines v Supra? Just thinking that we should try and get some sort of a point system happening.

Cheers

Ross

Yeah if you guys want to come along thats fine, start a thread, least that should make a good day of it, and make sure that we are going to get enough cars.

I've just posted on supraforums (http://www.supraforums.com.au/forum/showthread.php?p=715696#post715696)

I have made a couple of assumptions;

Location: ESP; and

This is the 1st of the 3 events that we are trying to make happen.

Please let me know if you would like anything changed.

Will you be having a BBQ at ESP? This would be a good way for you to generate some funds for your club.

Cheers

Ross

Thx for that dont really see any issues. Cost is actually 50$ + 5$ to SAU, to help us get a banner. If someone from the skyline side can organise a BBQ, I mean bring one along would be a good idea like you said. I myself don't have a good portable BBQ.

I did post up $55 for us as this will probably be the same for when we organise the drag racing event.

ESP do have a BBQ, but you might want to see if it's ok for you to use, might be an idea to suggest to the guys that you just bring a gas bottle.

Just a note to all. All money will be payed to ESP on the day, won't be passing through my hands. 5$ is an appreciated donation so to speak. Just with all this PL stuff nowadays want to cover myself. I will be going through the list later, but ALL R33 GTR's will be grouped together (if we have multiples), due to what ESP has to do to get them running on the dyno

On the dyno day note. I know my car won't be the most powerful out there. While it would be good if we win vs the supras, it's the day itself that counts.

    • Bit of a pity we don't have good images of the back/front of the PCB ~ that said, I found a YT vid of a teardown to replace dicky clock switches, and got enough of a glimpse to realize this PCB is the front-end to a connected to what I'll call PCBA, and as such this is all digital on this PCB..ergo, battery voltage probably doesn't make an appearance here ; that is, I'd expect them to do something on PCBA wrt power conditioning for the adjustment/display/switch PCB.... ....given what's transpired..ie; some permutation of 12vdc on a 5vdc with or without correct polarity...would explain why the zener said "no" and exploded. The transistor Q5 (M33) is likely to be a digital switching transistor...that is, package has builtin bias resistors to ensure it saturates as soon as base threshold voltage is reached (minimal rise/fall time)....and wrt the question 'what else could've fried?' ....well, I know there's an MCU on this board (display, I/O at a guess), and you hope they isolated it from this scenario...I got my crayons out, it looks a bit like this...   ...not a lot to see, or rather, everything you'd like to see disappears down a via to the other side...base drive for the transistor comes from somewhere else, what this transistor is switching is somewhere else...but the zener circuit is exclusive to all this ~ it's providing a set voltage (current limited by the 1K3 resistor R19)...and disappears somewhere else down the via I marked V out ; if the errant voltage 'jumped' the diode in the millisecond before it exploded, whatever that V out via feeds may have seen a spike... ....I'll just imagine that Q5 was switched off at the time, thus no damage should've been done....but whatever that zener feeds has to be checked... HTH
    • I think Fitmit had some, have a look on there (theyre Australian as well)
    • Hah, fair enough! But if you learn with this one you can drive any other OEM manual. No modern luxury features like auto rev-matching or hillstart assist to give you a false sense of confidence. And a heavy car with not that much torque so it stalls easily. 
    • Actually, I'd say all three are the automatic option. Just the different trim levels. The manual would be RSFS, no?
