I bet you dollars to doughnuts if he really did spend the day at the track it was as a spectator not actually getting out there having a go. anyone I know after a full day of circuit racing, or drifting is absolutely knackered after a days racing and you would most definitely be driving sedately home again.

You would also have to question how a piece of sh!t help together by cable ties would ever pass scrutineering.

drifting is not so worried about the securing of body kits, though the battery would definitely have seen him sitting that one out. all in all I say he was some clown who went to see some people with actual balls have a go at drifting or racing. being too much of a pussy to participate himself he thought he would make himself feel more manly buy thrashing the nuts out of his shitbox on the way home.

He's a tool, granted.

Hope he gets what he deserves.

But what really shits me is how the journo makes it out too the average joe that the doors or bonnet were held on by cable ties and the notion of taking out a back seat is so foreign to them that it must be pure evil when majority of us do that for track day too.

The battery thing... I got nothing and I've had a battery ground itself when cornering and explode.

there is a rumor at work that this was me :rofl:

All because I have like 2 cable ties on my front bar until I can fix it.

oh and because ppl that are apparently "car enthusiasts" don't know the difference between a 200sx and an R32

lol, you're the first person I thought of when I heard this on the news this morning!

Except I KNOW that you're not stupid enough to attempt this on a public road. :P

      Ethanol Content Sensor - Always at 11%?

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      Yea mine does, I assume we all use the same sensor. I'm not sure whether it is exact down to the .1%, but it definitely does have decimal points involved.

      Haha fair question. For two reasons. 1. Once I'm done migrating my water/methanol system over from pre-TB to direct port, I'll be hitting the dyno again. I also plan on trying Ignite E98 race fuel at the same time. I could not be bothered with emptying the tank every time, so anything between E70-E98 I'll be happy with. "Race" fuels are very expensive vs pump E85, so if I grow annoyed of paying, I may also just cross the border to fill a barrel and keep it in the garage.  2. Quebec is slowly increasing all pump fuels from E10 -> E15 by 2030. My daily fuel is 100RON + Water/Methanol and this will have an impact over the years.

      Maybe for when he's feeling rich and buys E85 drums

      I have to ask, if all your fuel is the same, why did you buy and install a flex sensor?  I'm so confused, what do you use the flex sensor calibration tables for?

      Thanks everyone for the responses. Our fuel in Quebec is all E10 by law. We do not have any other options. I know in the US, E85 has a wide tolerance (~51-85%) and I had presumed E10 would also have a slight tolerance but to some peoples point... if it's regulated by law then more effort must be put in to keep it at 10%. I'm thinking I'm just going to remove my sensor, cap an end and fill it with different fuels I have in the shed for my lawn tractor, power toys, etc. They are all lower octane and from different vendors. I'm presuming if I still see no variance from 11% after that, then I can conclude the sensor is no bueno.    Your sensor reads down to .1%'s? I recall mine only reading 0-100%. I'll check in my ecu tonight in case I didn't scale it properly.
