Thread revival.

After powercruise I had decided to leave the drag radials on, ordering a another pair soon so I can put my 18s back on the rear. Its the only tyre that has decent traction.

Took the car to the drags in June and only managed a feel out run before I destroyed the diff and snapped a half shaft :(

The spline from one of the shafts spun inside the axle gear which pushed it apart, then the other shaft snapped clean. Even though one gear broke I had to order two from Tomei which was a wallet killer! Could have almost bought a new diff.

So I only did a 12.3 at 137mph.

Done a few cruises and all up put about 1500kms on the motor. Took it out last night for a run up the mountains to fill up at the new United in Blaxland that sell E85.

Much better drive for me than going to Rozelle for fuel.

So now Im just doing some little tidy up stuff and would like to get the car resprayed at some stage.

Here are some vids from last night:

Awesome car! I love the first video of you feathering the throttle on flyby, awesome power and sound!

Do you also run on 95ULP at times or just E85 the whole time? Do you need to make any changes to the management system or does it self adjust to accomodate between the different fuels??

I've got a United servo near me that sells E85 (conveniently on the way to Calder Park too) so would love to run the odd tank here and there but not all the time. I've got a Power FC though.

Cheers.

    • Oh, also, forgot to add these photos I believe.
    • Thought i'd update on this. I was able to get in contact with Craig Lieberman and later on Darryl Alison (owner of Kaizo Industries). Darryl was able to help me verify that my car was in fact one of theirs and is helping me find more info on mine !
    • There's restrictor pills in the stock boost control hoses. That's how they set the amount that was bled off and hence the "high" boost setting. The usual mod in the day was to remove it and send the "high" boost setting up to about 14 psi.
    • Thanks Duncan, that's the best info I've read. Furthermore after learning about the PCM programming side controlling the factory boost solenoid, the purpose of the solenoid is to "bleed" boost when pin 25 is earthed, thus allowing spring pressure in the wastegate actuator to overcome diaphragm boost pressure, thus closing or reducing the position of the wastegate flap creating more boost as the turbo is able to spin faster. It's pretty cool to see a designated Pill to do exactly this, would have liked to have seen it with a tiny filter over the end for those moments in vacuum.  The constant bleed pill has now been removed completely from the system and solenoid boost control has been restored once again.   Case closed 😂
    • The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.
