hey all,

was a sweet day. i had fun and wasn't even driving! but makes me want to get back out there ASAP!

i got a few vids. Still trying to uploading the clips of Troy (green datto) but youtube keeps failing on me :nyaanyaa:

- Sorry, not sure who this is. But they were sliding nice!

so far I've got at least one of your battles on video, it should be up some time tomorrow..(killing the connection as I rip high quality)

haha yeah i had a great time too. definately beat the 40dergee temps we had last time. and NO FLIES :nyaanyaa:

was good meeting sone new faces,

russman your welcome anytime. ill have to get a ride in your rig next time though.

After a ride in scottsman's car i now understand that grip = gtr, bloody hell that was fun. its hard to comprehend a car hooking up like that when you drive a datsun.

good times!

hey rob, reckon you could send the vid to my email. [email protected]

thanks mate.

Thanks to everyone who helped run the day appeared to run really well...

Big thanks to Al and Dave for helping me with my busted ass car... POS>..

With any luck we'll have it sorted by the end of the week.,.,.,

Last night was a bucket of fun but never again i feel sooooo SICK..

Im out

Definantly a fun event! I was a bit worried going into it that my car would be too underpowered to have much fun, but i was aided by possibly the worst rear tyres in existance and i had a ripper of a time! There were some impressive cars and drivers getting around and the atmosphere was fun and relaxed which made it great. Thanks to all who put in and helped!

I reckon it was a great combo. You dont always need 11ty kw of power.

You were doing some awesome controlled sliding in the arvo battles :P

A huge huge thanks goes out to those who helped out on the day. Without you guys, we could'nt have done it. Your help was greatly appreciated and if any of you would like an SAU Calendar, just let me know.

Saturday night was hilarious :P

I still cant believe some of you clowns came home at 6am!!! I thought Adz and I were the last ones out.

Driving home hurt :)

Also, on a more serious note.

Taco Baz called me and wants to know who took his very expensive sombrero from the corner next to the bar.

Apparently someone 'borrowed' it for the group shot out the front (I cant see it in any pics though :spank: ). If someone did 'borrow' it, or saw someone else with it, please let me know by PM as soon as you can - itll just be between you and me.

I dont care who has it (if anyone), he just wants it back.

Thanks & bring on DECA Masters!!!

    • -10 is plenty for running to an oil cooler. When you look at oil feeds, like power steering feeds, they're much smaller, and then just a larger hose size to move volume in less pressure. No need for -12. Even on the race cars, like Duncans, and endurance cars, most of them are all running -10 and everything works perfectly fine, temps are under control, and there's no restrictions.
    • Update: O2 sensor in my downpipe turned out to be faulty when I plugged in to the Haltech software. Was getting a "open circuit" warning. Tons of carbon buildup on it, probably from when I was running rich for a while before getting it corrected. Replaced with new unit and test drove again. The shuffle still happens, albeit far less now. I am not able to replicate it as reliably and it no longer happens at the same RPM levels as before. The only time I was able to hear it was in 5th going uphill and another time in 5th where there was no noticeable incline but applying more throttle first sped it up and then cleared it. Then once in 4th when I slightly lifted the throttle going over a bump but cleared right after. My understanding is that with the O2 sensor out, the ECU relies entirely on the MAP tune and isn't able to make its small adjustments based on the sensors reading. All in all, a big improvement, though not the silver bullet. Will try validating the actuators are set up correctly, and potentially setting up shop time to tune the boost controller on closed loop rather than the open loop it is set to now. Think if it's set up on closed loop to take the O2 reading, that should deal with these last bits. Will try to update again as I go. 
    • More so GReddy oil relocation kits, sandwich plates, etc. all use 10AN fittings. And same, I've only used 10AN and my car sees track work (circuit, doing laps, not 10 sec squirt business).
    • street use or race track, what hose size and why? what factors change with the hose size options ?   see most comon is an10. when you see most oem external coolers are closer to an12? does high volume oil pump like nitto need an12 or 10 be just fine
