omg so buggered!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Firstly well done to Chubbs n Clapa achieving their goals. Chubbs proving that even hairdressers are fast and can steer with 54.9, Clapa steering the tug boat around in an impressive 53.6 and George (Demon) getting his EVO out for the first time punching out a 58.5!!!!

Now the failvia... well it seems that this mysterious issue is not so evident anymore... still some vibration under heavy brakes but i think that is just the pad/rotor... anyways it ended up getting around in a 51.7 which was happy about. Goal for sunday with all the stars and moons aligned i will get into the 50's....

A good alignment done and get the tyre pressures right she will be good to roll...

A big shout out to JB again for the day, Ben harper and george medeike (spelling lol) showing me how the car should be driven :whistling:

So what else is left to do.?!?!?!?!!?

Of course.. BBBEEEEEEEEERRRR!!!!

Its Ben Porter :D:whistling:

Yeah, what an epic day, plenty good cars, loads of track time, I love the south circuit!

the mx5 was keeping most of the cars honest! loved it!

Thanks to JB for today, totally worth every cent, I learnt so much, if it werent for these guys, Id be alot slower as I wouldnt have a clue how to drive this new thing properly!

Big ups to Eugene, George, Ando and Clappa also for doing great times and enjoying the day!

Now, my goal is 53's for sundays supersprint!

Sorry to hear all the bad luck Stu :D

What pressures do u need to run Ando and what have you been running?

At that Wakefield day (first time on semi slicks) I was running 30psi cold which rose to about 32-33psi hot but found out from the Yokohama dealer just near me that I should have started them at 25psi cold which will rise to 26-27psi.

Doubt I would have noticed any difference on my first day out in the car but ill give it a go at the OP GP day.

Ben - Champ i only adjusted the temp once all day lol.... i put 26 psi cold all round first session and came in with 33psi on drivers front & rear and 30 psi passanger front and rear so obvisouly there is a heap more load on the right hand side of car.... but yeah that was it for all day... just left them as that hahahahahaha just couldnt be arse fiddling as we had no air compressor, except clapas little cigarette lighter jobby which had less huff thana 70yr old hooker!!! :D

My moto if it goes, drive it.... meh to finer technical details... thats for this Sunday @ supersprint :( Today was R&D...

    • AHHHH gotchaa, I'll do that once I am home again. I tried doing the harness with the multimeter but it seems the car needed a jump, there was no power when it was in the "ON" position. Not sure if I should use car battery jump starter or if its because the stuff that has been disconnect the car just does send power.
    • As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.  
    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack. 
    • Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
    • In my head it does make sense to be a fuel problem since that is what I touched when cleaning the system. When I was testing with the fuel pressure gauge, the pressure was constantly 2.5 bar with the FPR vacuum removed. When stalling, the pressure was going up to 3.0 bar (which is how it should be on ignition).
