IM PISSED! f**kIN PISSED!

we should of got best club! not some 4 car go-go mobile group, not surprisingly they where actally from kadina area :D

but yes, well done to luke, steve and martin! :merli:

i learnt 2 valuable lessons today

1) my car is shit on fuel, i used a whole tank! there/dyno/home = empty tank :huh:

2)i STILL havent learnt my previous lesson about the values of sunscreen.

im blistered all over :(

thats gonna hurt in the mornin!

thank you to all entrants, and also those that tagged along :D

also thanks to pk for lending us the banner!

was a good show, nice turnout. I had to fuel up going there, then had to fuel up coming back haha.....

i too am burnt, gotta bring a damn hat/put on more sunscreen next time lol

weather turned out better than i thought, well anyways now i need some sleep!

congrats team on the trophies, and the turn out . im home now after a really long day,, got up at 4am...lol oh well it was car fun/

i wasnt sure if i could get home on the petrol but i ended up with more then 1/4 left even after showing a few wanna be racers in commys and a toyota mr2 who was boss....lol

PS taking off with traction control on is a bad idea,,, stumble then gone...lol

it was good to meet some of you to put a face with a name... a few of us got a bit burned ....ME !!!! didnt notice till i got in the car..oh well im going to pay for it now...lol

ive got about 150 photos or more to edit then post not tonight,,, shower then sleep im so tired

hope nobody got done by the two cops in the bushes near port wakefield ? they gave me the look but didnt move...lol guess the coffe and doughnuts were more important....lol

eddy did u try the little switch up on the clutch if its manual or on brake if its auto.. it tell the computer its ok to start, otherwise you get nothing ?

Nah, haven't touched the 32 since I got home. I'll give it a go tomorrow as well as what Kye suggested if that doesn't work.

Yeah saw the cop on Pt Wakefield Rd, didn't seem to take much interest in traffic when I went past.

[

kadina will remember me for a very long time as they leave the oval lol

that will teach them to not give us best club :merli:

so ya took off like a tool just reinforcing the hoon image we are trying to lose well done tool

well i had fun. bit roasted, but meh, have a cry.

was nice to meet everyone, Luke, Guy, Martin(for some reason i feel like ive met you before?), Craig, and anyone else who i had a chat to.

ive got a heap of pics, but will upload tomorrow when i can be arsed.

i was behind you on the way back Troy, saw the 2 cop wagons, dont think they even bothered to turn their heads to look at our cars!

no troubles at all with police, so it made for a good drive, apart from the section between wakefield and kadina, that was rough as guts.

heres one pic i took, now im going to have a shower and sleep, the drive all the way back to mannum has destroyed me!

Cheers for the votes guys. Good to finally get something after spending all this money on the car.

Well done to Martin and Steve also. Shame we didnt get best club always next yr.

Big thanks to Craig and Steve for setting up and help organising everything :)

+1 for being burnt also :P

    • The car/ECU will have all the sensor that it needs and expect to have. I think i do not have to explain to you how the Link is way better specialy if you have swapped engine   I just do not want to deal with any "problems" cuz i have only Nistune which i learned is not that great and in my case cant even deal with that speed problem (Link can) And of course it will be way more easier to tune and diagnose and safe. And for the ECU/speed problem...i dont know.
    • Per Mark Roberts of Sonictune: Mark Robert Author At this time, no. No ETA either 2016-17 models. You will be able to purchase and install a 2018.5+ TCU though   TCU purchasing and pricing info! As we near the release of TCU tuning, I am going to answer some questions I get asked often.   What do I need for TCU tuning? At this time, you will need a 2018.5+ TCU to be able to tune. If you have a 2016-to early 2018, you will need to replace your TCU with the newer version. One good way to know if your TCU is good is if you have auto upshift in manual mode in 1st gear around 6500 rpms. If your manual 1st gear goes to 7k rpm and will hit the rev limiter unless you shift, you have the older TCU.   Why do I need to buy another ecu license/phone flash if I already have it on my ECU tune? The TCU is its own computer module. It is completely separate from the ECU. Because of this, you will be required to purchase a TCU license and, if your tuner has it, the phone flash license required to tune it via phone/bluetooth.   Do I need TCU tuning? TCU tuning is NOT required. However, the faster your setup, the more it will assist in track and dragy time consistency.   If I’m ECU tuned by (tuner A) can I get my TCU tuned by (Tuner ? Yes, since it’s a different module and a completely separate flash, you can have two different tuners. However, it is highly recommend that you have both tuned by the same tuner. For me, my TCU tuning will directly complement my ECU tuning style and features and running my ECU and another TCU or vice versa MIGHT cause some issues. At this time and for the foreseeable future, I will only be tuning my current ECU tuned customers TCUs.     I have a SYVECS AWD controller. Do I still need it? Yes! The AWD controllers main job is to control your AWD system. However, with TCU tuning, you will no longer need the auto-shift function as that will be done through the TCU. The AWD controller will still be very beneficial for racers looking to maximize traction on the launch.     Shift schedule changes: holding gears longer at lower pedal input as well as max shift rpm changes. Please note, the new ECU race rom coming out will address 90% of the shitty drivability issues these cars have through custom maps from myself and Racebox—as well as others I am sure.   Increase shift speeds: as seen in the videos I’ve been posting, the TCU shifts much faster once tuned.   Increased shift pressures: as also seen in the videos, much firmer full throttle shifts.

    • The fancy pants red shock tower brace is finally incoming from MX5 Mania, getting it shipped from 'Merica has been a long and problematic process, and GWR, the 'Merican supplier will not ship directly to consumers outside of the US, Mania basically had to order a heap of them, the colour choice was silver, or red, and we all know anything red adds 5 killerwasps of dynotorques..... Whilst it does fit over a 2.5, and I've seen a few photos and videos of it being installed and fitting, google also says it might get real close to the FAB9 intake front runner, people in the US says it does fit with the FAB9 intake, except for one person who said it slightly touched.......so there is that.....LOL..... As it seems that I am the first in AU to have this combination of parts there's no local knowledge about fitment, so I'm just a willing guinea pig in this endeavour, I'll cross my fingers and toes and hope for the best In other news, I ordered stuff from China  on the same day I ordered the 23° silicone bend from Victoria, the stuff from China arrived a day ago, the 23° silicone bend is still travelling around Australia thanks to Australia Post, and "may" be here next week
    • Very good news...I contacted Racebox about it last night. My car is a 2016 so remains to be seen if it is compatible, requires a TCU swap, or is impossible.
