Hey snowy, hands up whos not doing targa?

STFU!

You know my project here has gone utterly pear shaped this last fortnight, so I've asked the people if they want to take a 1 month resess to get their shite sorted. If they say yes I will be straight onto the phone to Stu! LOL

I don't have a bed anywhere in Tas, a navigator, no idea what condition the race car is in and have done no recce - but if they say they are putting everything on hold for a month I'll bust my ass to get there!!!

Yeah yeah Lap it up Lappy Lapperton.

Ooh whoops that wasn't aimed at you, you do have a legitimate excuse :ermm:

And it probably would since my car seems to fall apart as soon as it gets further south than Strahan!

went for a quick spin in the Just Jap ATTKD Select R SP today (quick being the operative word!)

now definitely can't wait for targa!

so are you blokes up for the threatened catch up? maybe a drink saturday night in launceston before it gets too busy?

worst case we can have a few lemonades at the welcome party

i'm up for a drink any day of the week, need one or 15 as my employer just went into administration and according to the cfo we might be spending a lot of time in the local bar if employees start getting culled

Now that sucks Ben- I'm sure we can help with some sorrow drowning.

Hope all works out.

Saturday probably won't be much good for us, full day of recce then final prep on the car as we are scrutineered at 8:20am Sunday morning.. Booooooo

The full day recce sunday, so maybe if we're not dead sunday we'll be at the welcome party.

Thas sh1t .... i will give you 20K for your GTSt! :) ... but seriously, thats shit. I left a company weeks before something similar and know how tough it is to have to take a punt on finding a new job...quickly :D

Well we are nearly ready to go. Car had to go back to melbourne yesterday but will have it back wednesday. Can't wait!!

Saw your car in the flesh today Matt - it sure looks sweet.

I put my car through its paces today and it passed with flying colors. I also found someone to jump in the silly seat so it looks like I'm going to be back in the game!

Team Last Minute FTW.

Haha - yeah I just sat down to look over my footage from last year and there was chicanes on every stage on Day 1 last year. I was watching it and thinking "that will be a little more exciting without a chicane there" on a number of occassions!

Now that sucks Ben- I'm sure we can help with some sorrow drowning.

    • Sounds like you've got an interesting adventure ahead here with local support if you have trouble! My guess is that, unboosted, you will be OK with a small upgrade like -9. What will happen is that once the stock ECU sees more airflow than it expects it will add a heap of fuel and pull a heap of timing to be safe because it can't understand how it could get that much air without there being an issue. You will see clouds of black smoke and it won't pull hard through the midrange and top end. So, overall it will be a bit frustrating but should be OK. If you are still nervous set the base timing back 2o through the CAS, but it will be even more sluggish everywhere. As said above through...this is not my guarantee your engine won't be blown into a million pieces, leaving you looking for very hard to find parts A better idea is get a computer with logging ASAP, wire in a wide band O2 sensor and a use remote tuner. I've done multiple cars this way and while it is not as good as a specific tune on a dyno they can get it 90% right. I'd suggest if you can afford an R33 GTR these days you can afford an ECU and tune. And if you can't afford that you sure won't be able to afford the rebuild if it goes bad in the meantime,.  
    • Yeah it would be nice if someone took the time to put that sort of information together, but there are a lot of variations in looms. I think you are making this way hard for yourself if you just want to get it running....sourcing an SR20 with the right wiring will be a billion times easier than matching the RB loom to an S15 chassis. If you do end up going this way, you just need to trace every wire in the loom with a multimeter, 95% of them will go to a location you can confirm at the ECU.....and then post it up for the next person who needs it  
    • Just top it up with water, and keep a general idea of how much you added. It is normal for water to be pushed into and pulled out of the reservoir through the cap, and it should not be more than half full or it will be likely to overflow when hot. Any decent mechanic can do a pressure test of the cooling system to confirm if you have a leak. Keep in mind if it is only leaking a little and when hot it may well evaporate before you see it hit the ground
    • I'd ask the shop what they used and use that. Mixing coolants is sometimes OK, sometimes not, and you have know the details of each coolant to know whether it's a good idea or not.
    • Is it alright to top up with just another green coolant?
