I'm doing a turbo swap, so the Stag won't be tagging along ... as much as I like to see some track action.

I might shot out on the bike if I've got time. :(

As stated the cruise will DEPART the caltex at 0830 sharp - I wanna get there and ready for the first session (tyre swap, data logging ready etc)

I rang Clem today - the first session will start at 10am and you will get 6x15 min sessions!!!!!! Hour and a half track time for $100 (plus $25 if day licence required) - hate to think how many 'road' kms that equates to........

You guys that are going on the track what tyres u using?

I'll be using RE55s semis - but it is still just as fun with street tyres (albeit the lap time doesn't neccessarily agree or show 'fun'!)

re55's who makes them?

I got some 17's that i wanna put track tyres on and still trying to find out which tyre would be best.

Bridgestone make these - if you want a good compromise for semis, go for the R888 by Toyo, cheaper than the RE55s and still quite a good tyre.

I'd love to go but I'll be in olympic dam for the weekend ;| sux but on the plus side, at least I get more $ to spend on my gearbox refit.

    • Ahhh, I need the whole head unit. I definitely needed to roll back through and review your setup, ha ha! Neat setup they have going on. I just need a full double din head unit. But I want good and responsive. I might have to review what the likes of pioneer have out these days.
    • Ok so after much research and talking with knowledgeable people I've got my turbo conversion done and it's all running great other than 1 small issue.  Car has remained auto with the na auto and tcm, I've used a stagea ecu with. NIstune board and everything is great other than my gear selection on the dash. It illuminates park, reverse, neutral, 3rd and 2nd. But nothing drive or what gear your in when you pop it into tiptronic.  I'm sure there is may e 1 wire in the ecu plug I need to move to rectify this. Dose anyone here have any ideas?   Cheers guys
    • Sorry I haven't been following all the detail, so you may have tried this. Does it idle with the tiniest bit of throttle you can add? You've mentioned the IACV, does it have an AAC valve and have you adjusted it at all (ie, screw the idle adjust screw all the way in, then back it out a couple of turns until idle is stable)?
    • My bad, I unplugged the one underlined in red instead of yellow before. With the car started, after unplugging the IACV (the one underlined in yellow), it idled at around 400/500 for 3 seconds before stalling. Attempting to start the car without the IACV will not start the car.   It does stutter and sputter for around 5 seconds before dying. However, immediately after starting it, you can already hear some slight sputters from the exhaust.   It won't start with the AFM unplugged. If it is when the car has already started, it stalls in a few seconds.   Yesterday, I did take some logs using Nistune of 3 scenarios. Car idling till it stalls Car idling and unplugging the IACV Car idling and removing the AFM I also have some previous logs of when the Car is idling till it stalls and when driving and it cuts. I am not really knowledgeable enough to understand what to look for. After every test, car idles rougher and rougher, until I have to stop. It will be fine the day after.
    • There is no difference between a 17x8 and an 18x8. The total diameter of the tyre needs to remain +/- the same (so you don't mess up the gearing, speedo reading, and clearance when turning front wheels..... so you just need to use a lower profile tyre on th 18 than you do on the 17. /rocket surgery.
