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...

    • Hi, i’m making a rb25det coil loom for Vag short coil. Can anybody tell me which Ecu signal wire belong to coil number 1 and 2,3,4,5,6? The connecting switch in above pic is 8 wire i think white is for +12v and black for earth.
    • Was there ever a model of the Stagea m35 that didnt have a badge on the grill? I thought I saw that somewhere, some aero edition or something? I cant find it again? davemoto
    • Its a 2002 vr-x four VQ25DET, silver. Coil overs, lowered, polished alloys and sport exhaust. Bit of a project, was sitting in a shed for a while but runs and drives great.
    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
