How much power do you datto's have? I only went in yours and leighs and man they are quick. Am I going to be eating humble pie at a place like sandown?

Troy is the one with big power mine is just a baby, and besides - seems the power makes no difference as none of us can drive :P

Come to sandown russ, you'll have a ball!

Yeah pretty sure I'll be there. My rear tyres are stuffed now though so I need some new ones. Anyone have any second hand 17in RE55's?

I do remember the sprint to the other side of the skid pan in troys. It really pulls hard!

Well after a disappointing end to my morning Saturday with fueling issues with the car Ray has come through with the goods and returned the Monster....

Before the weekend i went in with a nice 280kw delivered hard but smooth and with some idle issues and obviously the unforeseen issues on the weekend at DECA.

After picking my car up from him today it was found that the Fuel map was all over the place. Reasoning for this is unknown and in the past. Ray has re-tuned the car to a kick asss 308kw. its idle issues are fixed and power delivery is sweet.

Massive thanks to Ray at RE Customs for his help on Saturday while trying to diagnose the issues and the work hes done to resole the probs with the car.

Thanks again to Al Dave and everyone else who gave me a hand on the weekend with the car.....

Hey Russman,

Not quite RE55s, but I've got a set of Bridgestone RE070s for sale in the For Sale section...

They're the ones I used last weekend...

Cheers.

Daz.

Yeah good driving tim. 3rd first time out is very impresive. You linked up all the corners like a true drifter.

I enjoyed driving against you in the battles but that waste gate is a bit rude don't you think! haha.

      Blue/grey smoke after idle

      By Duncan · Posted

      I don't know, I've never done it that way, but 1. While it is an interference engine, there is still clearance between the valves and the piston at all points in the regular timing cycle 2. There is not a lot of distance before you can't catch the top of the valve stem any more I don't know if 2 is greater or less than 1. But 3. If it doesn't work out you are f**ked, engine is coming out to disassemble so it is a big bet.

      Semi slicks are horrible for road use, just use a high performance road tyre unless you really need the maximum grip. Noisy, unpredictable (amazing, until they are not), expensive due to very high wear and not good in cold and particular wet. And yes, it is a thing to store cars on stands instead of tyres if you know they are going to be parked up long term.....but who ever realises that a short park is going to stretch into years before it is out again!

      I know in Australia you'll definitely get above 30c. Parked in the shade in Summer you'll be above that. 😛 But in cooler climates, you might get that warm driving on the highway for a bit, but you'd never get to full heat temp. I'll try and find some of my historical tyre temps between Aus summer and winter (be aware immin the warmer area of Aus too.)

      I get that taking off the head is best but that's a bit much for "just" valve seals. I was just under the impression that one would be able to rotate to TDC and be able to temporarily drop the valve without losing it and effectively having to remove the head to then recover it. I never knew people actually pushed rope into the cylinder to do valve seals hahaha So just to confirm, just going to TDC will not work? In that case I know when I do valve seals I'll maybe just remove the head and do some other things while I'm there, or just wait until I do an engine build.
