Helmet rollcage and long pants and top. also a fire ext is needed but they are $30 bucks from repco or autobarn

is a roll cage a requirement for one of these days?

any chance of using sandown, was planning on going to one at calder in the near future but winton is too far, especially if i break something and cant drive it home.

I reckon they should (and probably will) Bulldoze that shit hole poor excuse for a run down motor sport track. It's old, unmanaged and past it's used by date.

Victoria REALLY needs a new decent venue...

if someone was going to build a new venue it would have been done by now, its not so i cant see it happening, there fore if they bulldoze calder the only thing we have is sandown or winton, and winton is way too far.

Yeah winton is 2 hrs up the hume. I also wouldnt worry about braking your car because alot of the guys are happy to help out when that happens and alot of guys carry spares or tow their car up so you may even be able to find a lift back. Also you dont need a cage to drive.. you only need a cage if you are wanting to take passengers in ur car

      rb20de neo +t conversion - boost pressure sensor needed?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      You're confusing two different responders and more than one issue. The stock Neo ECU boost sensor is used by the ECU for protection purposes. It is essentially only an overboost sensor. It is not used for determining engine load for fuelling or ignition purposes. That task falls solely to the AFM. Any aftermarket ECU that either has an onboard MAP sensor or a plug in one, will use the MAP sensor as the primary load sensor. Or I should perhaps say "can", rather than "will", because some of them have the option of using other primary load sensors. That MAP sensor is not for the same function as the stock Neo boost sensor. The reason I recommended against a plug and play ECU is that they are intended to run a particular engine and usually in the car that the particular engine came in. So, if you have a transplanted engine in a different car, with some parts of the original missing (such as the boost sensor, for example) and therefore likely non-standardness of the loom and its insertion into the car's loom, then it is very likely that you will run into the same problems with needing to fix up wiring to make it work that you would with the stock ECU. And, if doing so for the stock ECU is enough of an obstacle that you start considering a standalone plugin as a solution, it should become clear that the plugin is quite possibly not the solution you'd hope it to be. It would just lead to more of the same type of problem solving work to get it going. In the above paragraph and in my earlier post, the lack of the boost sensor is not critical. It was just used as an example of something that we knew you did not have right, such that the stock ECU would not work. I took that as an indicator of a reasonable probability that there were other related problems hiding there.

      R32 GTR fuel gauge not working despite fixing fuel level sender

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      I can think of two places in my city of <1.5million population that specialise in automotive instrument repairs.Unless you're out in the wilds of Quebec, you have 3 major Canadian and 3 major US cities within the same distance as the single nearest city to mine. Surely there is somewhere you could send it.

      Can anyone shed some insight on this Turbo?

      By TurboTapin · Posted

      I never cared for twins but whenever these conversations came up, I always presumed the higher number represented a larger turbo. Learn something new everyday.

      how do i install this 3 port mac valve for boost control?

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      Interesting, I've never seen a failure like that before but with the age of these cars and the general questionable-ness of all kinds of parts these days you can't rule anything out I suppose. Boost leak testing the boost control system would've revealed this though.

      Thanks for updating the outcome; while anywhere in the system could leak, I hadn't heard of a wastegate actuator doing so before, can add that to the list of potentials for next time
