Hey guys

Just thought i post up, if people were interested in getting a decent amount SAU members to come out willowbank raceway and take there car down the strip (or just watch )

The suggestion was put forward by a fellow SAU member and i thought also it would be a good idea.

Laterly i have gone out to test and tune to watch and have been kinda bored with the lack of skylines, or interesting cars.

As i have seen the amount of Skylines increasing around the area, it would be good to see a heap of skylines head out and have fun.

I thought to give people some notice and put the date of the test and tune night for the 30th of April.

For details of whats required to take your car down the strip just click on the link http://www.willowbank-raceway.com.au/

It would be good to see a fair amount of skylines head out, and show other members of what you have/done.

Thanks

theres a good chance ill be able to go. it'll be my first run on the new engine. Is anyone from the southside meeting up to go down? Otherwise there's no difference between going down on yr date or any other test n tune

probably wont be much difference.

Only the fact that, hopefully there will be a few skylines on the 30th, and usually hardly any on any other date, which sucks paying 18 bucks to watch average cars go down.

Even the point of the events are for " testing" but ya know come on, bring out some interesting stuff.

It was more to see a few skylines at willowbank on the same night. But if anyone wanted to organise a cruise there, go for it.

But im only like 10 mins away from there. So, pointless for me really.

It could even turn out to be a cruise after it to Mt Cootha or somewhere of interest on a Wednesday, not sure if anyone would be interested in that but ya know could be suggested if theres a next time that something like this is organised

C'mon Miss niz, come for a run in the 34. I'ts heaps of fun, my car is only doing 14's so not that great. Still i loved it.

All the guys thinking of coming with huge power in their cars, COME ON DOWN. I would love to see really fast Skylines having a go. Would be great entertainment. Be nice to outnumber the Xr6 turbo's and SS commo's.

By the looks of it, probably is a good idea if we had two people to organise a northside cruise down and southside, if you guys were interested doing that. Then possibly meeting up at an area before where we can all cruise into willowbank together.

Off the top of my head, i am unaware of a suitable location to meet. I was thinking of Redbank Plaza Shopping Centre, but then we do have a couple of people that live closer to Willowbank then that, and would be travelling backwards. Then again depends on how many turn up and would attend the little cruise down.

But by the look of it theres a decent group of people coming along, and a few that are producing good numbers and new comers, so should be an interesting night.

Awesome!!

Be good to meet you too. Hope we get a few more.

Yeah no worries, im penciling it in now...

I just want to open the bike up, see how fast i can cross the 1/4 in (trap speed i mean)...

Im nervous of a gust of wind at 200 tho, I think it will be a true "test and tune" for me, test how confident I am after clicking into 3nd gear at 15,000rpm :)

      Oil pan for RB25DET NEO Stagea "version"

      By Dose Pipe Sutututu · Posted

      If you have a RB25DET NEO AWD motor, you will need this: https://www.hioctanedirect.com/ASR-RB26-RWD-Street-Comp-6.5L-Sump-Suit-R32/33/34-and-VL It is made for the AWD motor, but makes it fit a RWD setup and gives you a new pickup. Just one thing, the pickup sits quite forward, compared to a conventional RB25DET RWD motor. This may or may not have contributed to my previous AWD -> RWD shitting the bed at the track.

      My car is also flex tuned. It's worth mentioning it (the LS1 ECU) has a 1D table for E85 addition and just uses the ethanol stoich part as the second point of reference. It also as a 3D timing map for Ethanol adjustment. You would think this isn't enough but it works pretty damn well. That said, I wouldn't want it in turbo application. It's like lifting non-natty, or taking meth. It gets you unrealistic results that break down more things going forward. If people used it to make the same amount of power they do on 98 then it'd be one thing. But people use it, crank it up to eleventy million PSI, it doesn't knock - but it pushes the point of failure to another, more expensive thing to break. Every time I see someone make 280kw on 98 and 350kw on E85 on the same equipment I just cry a bit and really wish they would just stay on 98 in that exact scenario. It's bad for you.

      Factory oil temp sensor in a RS4V without gauges?

      By Chi-Town · Posted

      This is kind of what I was thinking but the temp sender wire and the two pressure switch wires run through the starter subharnes and I eliminated the two pressure switch wires completely.  @GTSBoy I have a can gauge with unusually bright warnings should the oil pressure fall so the factory light isn't needed. I need to dig out my wiring diagram and see if I can sort this out.

      It's a valid point. And it is doable with the Nistune. But I'm not inclined to flex it the way Nistune does - certainly not on a Neo ECU. They're already pernickety enough to tune just one one fuel. And of course, I'm not that interested in putting in a Link or similar, on a daily. With the stock ECU, stock looking turbo, etc etc, I still stand a chance of surviving a run-in with the plod. Last time it went over the pits (which was for the transplant, for because of a run-in with the plod), the Nistuned ECU did not even raise an eyebrow. They want to see a stock ECU running the engine, and they are happy to see it do so without the check engine light** on. Never mind that the Nistune is necessary to make the stock ECU work in a different chassis without ABS, TCS, etc. **And they actually provoke the CEL to come on by disconnecting the AFM, to prove that the globe hasn't been pulled!
