Hi guys,

I am pleased to inform you all the dates for the 2008 Tasmanian Drift Series have been finalised and can now be released to the public. After a successful inaugural year the Tasmanian Drift Series is back bigger and better in 2008. The biggest step forward for the series this year is it is now a true state series, compromising of rounds at both tracks at opposite ends of the state.

2007 Tasmanian Drift Series champion Simon House will have to fight hard this year to defend his crown with an ever growing list of drivers and teams improving their cars and teams to newfound heights. If you are a mainland driver interested in attending one or all rounds of the Tasmanian Drift Series feel free to contact myself via email at [email protected] or simply via PM if you would like further details. Accommodation for mainland competitors can always be supplied by a number of drifters volunteering their premises and other assistance can be provided if required.

Cheers

Ben Purtell

Committee Leader of Drifting Tasmania

The dates:

Round 1- May 3- Baskerville Raceway

Round 2- May 24- Symmons Plains Raceway

Round 3- July 19- Baskerville Raceway

Round 4- August 23- Symmons Plains Raceway

Round 5- October 4- Baskerville Raceway

      RB25DE NEO with Haltech ECU

      You very likely need to get it on a dyno and tune it. My assumption is, you've got an RB25DET tune in it, which has a different manifold, different injectors, and different cams as a minimum. What O2 sensor are you running?   When you say it runs extremely rich from idle all the way to redline, is this just free revving it you see that?

      I seem to the be only person that is using a Haltech 2500 on an NA motor, I've installed a Bosch DBW throttle body to the OEM intake manifold and am having problems maintaining AFR even with the wideband o2.  It will run extremely rich at idle and up to redline, but under load it will go extremely lean in the 20s and i'm essentially having to rev it over 4k and feather the clutch to get it up to speed.  I've read a few other threads of about the butterfly, it seems removing the vacuum to it is supposed to have it remain open, i've noticed no difference under 4k with the vacuum line to it plugged.  I'm hoping someone here has had luck using the NA manifold with Haltech, and if they happen to have a tune for it.

      I don't know any details, but I really wouldn't be surprised if they do it as a LHD only version, at least initially.

      What should I do next to hold the head on

      By Gareth87 · Posted

      Thanks for the replies everyone. Definitely a coolant push. Oil catch can is empty and always has been. As the engine is out now I'll be having a good look over things. I do have some detonation on the piston tops from a trigger issue back about 5 years ago. I felt it and shut off then bought a new ecu and changed the trigger. Never been an issue since. It never hurt the power, its made almost 80hp more since that incident but I will pull the bearing caps to take a look. If the bearings are damaged I will do a bottom end refresh. Head is being re conditioned at the moment and the block will be cleaned and checked to ensure it's flat. I'll go with a kameari gasket and see how it ends up. The other thing I'm not super keen on is the cylinder colours. I suspect this is from the inlet manifold. The plan will be to put it back together, retune and then stick a plazmaman billet inlet on it and retune. I'm happy with the power, if it makes a little more, then great, but I would rather just make everything more efficient at this stage.

      Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...
