yeah its on this weekend, and watchers are welcome. just make sure you bring a gtr so i can steal bits when required lol. sunday is better as sat includes qualifying and scruitineering. and you will probably need to pay for entry

BTW.......I need an intake headlight for the new sports sedan....where did you get it, and do you mind if we make a mould from it?

i dont think my gtr is good for pilfering parts at the moment. but my garage.. well thats another story..

and i think brad wants to mould it too. or do something along them lines.

its made by http://www.silkroad-jp.com/section/hli.html

;)

have you shared how you worked out the oil temp gauge problem mad scientist?

ROFLMAO,,,Yea come on buddy share. Nothing like taking the piss out of poor Duncan. Such good fun..

He will come good,,,we just have to wait. Happy days.

As a great man said "It's not my car".

Neil.

could be a chilly weekend thanks to the arsehole racing drivers club. $200 for a garage and they are all booked already by porsche drivers.

According to BOM

Saturday Mostly fine.

West: Min: 6 Max: 17

Sunday Chance shower.

West: Min: 7 Max: 17

looks like lovely 4wd turbo weather.

we need to get the pop off valve sorted this weekend too :)

BTW Brad I asked about our disagreement re the regs and the tech committee will get back to me. I will be happy if they agree with you :D I'd love a few more killer wasps or even better some less lag with those slow old turbos

Andrew id really like to borrow that headlight if you dont mind!!

Ill be out there on sunday so can pick it up from you then, Duncan you just want one of them??

I am getting a mould done of it and also a brake duct/intake mould too.

Duncan you know we're going to get an ammended rule book now with the loop holes fixed.

Also what form of boost controller are you actaully using Duncan??

You know that the form of controlling boost is free provided the pressure remains within the manufactures specs.

Jas - yes we will run a pop off valve on the weekend that will enforce 11psi (stock boost for r32 gtr). If anyone has nissan docs confirming that n1s had the rumoured 14psi it would be really damn helpful to me....

Jess - sorry, can't hear you :)

Brad - they only know I have a question, not that there are different "interpretations" out there. I want it clarified before I spend another 1k on poncams. And yes I got agreeement to run a boost controller (i have greddy prospec blah blah thingy) because the standard boost control is *very* unreliable. so at least if the valve keeps going off I can turn it down a bit. And I would love a copy of the headlight for the sports sedan :P

Looks like the suspension might be in afterall, Gary has been flat out putting it together and we are going to try and fit it all up tomorrow night, and wheel align at the track on Sat morning.

That only leaves the side pipes and suspension pickup adjustments as the only things I still need to do for the new rules. Then onto building the spare engine, and if nothing goes wrong (lol) it will all be pretty organised.

BTW I hear a rumour there will be a 400+rwkw gtr sport sedan running. If I didn't annoy them enough last weekend, I think a real one will this weekend :( will be interesting to see how it goes over a few laps - hope the have got some really nasty sticky slicks for it, about 325 wide would be nice

You'd like the original one? or would you like the section/silkroad number?? hopefully i can make it out on sunday,

as for boost control, get a large needle, and start poking thousands of holes in your accuator lines, and then pray it all holds together :D

lol I think that is what they are trying to get on top of Andrew.

We are on 3rd so about 10ish and 2ish each day probably. new shocks are in after 1am this morning (and thanks for providing the cold cold garage and help Neil :)), just needs a wheel alignment in the morning and off we go.

    • I guess one thing that might be wrong is the manifold pressure.  It is a constant -5.9 and never moves even under 100% throttle and load.  I would expect it to atleast go to 0 correct?  It's doing this with the OEM MAP as well as the ECU vacuum sensor. When trying to tune the base map under load the crosshairs only climb vertically with RPM, but always in the -5.9 column.
    • AHHHH gotchaa, I'll do that once I am home again. I tried doing the harness with the multimeter but it seems the car needed a jump, there was no power when it was in the "ON" position. Not sure if I should use car battery jump starter or if its because the stuff that has been disconnect the car just does send power.
    • As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.  
    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack. 
    • Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
