Wooo! Thanks Duncan. Still can't believe we did it. Managed 6th outright too which I'm amazed with. I'll post up some videos tomorrow. Time to party now...

I think the lack of chicaines is going to hurt the emo's and wrx's. Rossarden is going to be really fast without those chicains, will be lots of time to make up with good notes, as it will be bloody scary for most.

Totally agree, if the two girls in the Unique Evo were in the main game, well, there'd be something wrong if they weren't giving Jeff a real good run for his money in E Mod. Reading through the list I'm actually suprised how relatively uncompetetive it looks! Why did Shaw pull out?

I wouldn't be too concerned for the Evo's and STi's Benny, from some of the figures I hear the things make when nicely tuned on E85 it's actually the Lambo and Porsche guys that should be worried! lol

And I totally agree on Rossarden, I'd be running full peak coming over that crest without a chicane there as a buffer :D I hope everyone has good brakes!

I think shaw was scared off by this wepon http://www.targa.org.au/Competitors/profil...0Early%20Modern . E Mod dosn't look like it'll get any media coverage at this rate. we'll have to create some media interest for 2011 :D

still don't know if E85 is worth it, you've got more power, but your lugging extra weight around. I've heard some people say they'd need a 120l in a emo to run it.

One of my relitive is running a block of flats (volvo 242) in the rookie classic, i've told him not to crash, as the greens will kill him from putting such a big hole in the scenery :D

Well Im doing Targa now woo yeh! Except I'll be one of the first cars on the road every day and not appear in the results...

Navving for a bloke in the Zero Car, its a Mazda 6 Sport Diesel being supplied by Mazda for the event. Should be a bit of fun, no pressure and still get a buzz :cool: and importantly it will get me back on notes in preparation for Mt. Stuart Sprint with Benny in June. It has been 12 months since I looked at pace notes and I pulled some out the other day and began scratching my head. What tha fudge does that mean :ermm:

Oh and I didn't want to go off topic in the the other thread about Serge's R34, but am I right in saying that E85 will be compulsary from 2011??? Im sure I read it somewhere...

If it were the case with Arrowsmith maybe they could put a pitstop in half way and make it F1 style (IE you can win it or lose it in the pits Lol!)

Good to see you're in Timmy, even if it's in one of those Mazda things :thumbsup:

And good to see the smack down talk has started, albeit a little late.

I'm back in with the llama in the new & improved ATTKD Select SP- Go Car 803!

Should be an interesting Targa, some of my local mates are already predicting it will be wet?

Oi....just 'cos we're good looking AND fast! :P

Seriously though, have tried numerous times dangling the full Targa carrot in front of Handbags, but to no avail. "You only get to have a crack at Rookie once" says he. Well experience says I get to do it twice! :P

Fingers crossed we can set the place alight (so to speak) and show some form on the results page come Thursday night.

Kel, are you guys staying at the Penny Royal again?

what trick bits does a ATTKD Select SP have?

I'd tell you Ben, but then I'd have to kill you :P

Lucky Stu came good with the info

Yep Dan, staying at Penny Royale again - is that where you are?

We should organise an SAU catch up, everyone's schedules permitting?

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By Kapr · Posted

      Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler

      Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?

      Hi.. Just another problem. So maybe you can help. I(my mechanic) done swap from my RB20DE NEO to RB25DET NEO. Everything is OK but we have a boost cut. Coils/Plugs are ok...AFM is ok. ECU is ok. I have Walbro 255 but it "changed" sound few months ago(you can hear it ouside) you did not hear that when it was new(maybe faulty?) Sooo...what now? What can cause this boost cut? It is even when you standing still...
