Hi all..... so went camping fri + sat nights. Mates forester GT ran out of fuel out near kenilworth in pitch black at like 9pm fri night and none of us had reception. Took about 2 hours to get that sorted. We ended up sitting on the side of the road with him having a "few" beers while our other mates went and got some fuel hahahahahaha.

f**kin scary... we were basically in wolf creek lol

Shit day at lakeside today :)

Got stuck in a group with a bunch of sunday drivers, first session got about 2 half decent laps in, the rest were all stuck in traffic.

Second session I came through under the bridge too hot, did a 360, and then slid into the wall. I actually thought I'd managed to avoid the wall but just slid into it on the grass:

Pulled it all apart when I got home.

Guard. Could probably salvage it but not worth it, I'll get a new one:

Bumper reo got a bit bent but nothing that would stop it being used:

Filler panel also got a bit of damage but again, nothing to require replacing:

Headlight glass survived, a bit of paint to get off though:

All the mounts are cracked though. Hopefully I can get this fixed at a plastic welder or something. Don't want to have to buy another projector:

On the bright side, the body underneath it all looks straight:

So I'm probably just up for a guard, front bar skin, and some painting.

Andy, I might need to hit you up for you painter friend soon...

here's a video from session 1 of the couple of fast(ish) laps I got in:

at about the 35 second mark is my lakeside drifting :)

@Andy, does your mate do other panel work besides painting? I might need my front bar plastic welded and cleaned up before painting, and a couple of vents fitted, reckon he could do that?

marto looks awesome!

epic hand control while skidding :cool:

Boy's got skillz :P

ps next saturday we're finishing it :P

Haha, I may have to prioritize now. Its OK though, I'm sure Dan will help you out ;P

Sucks about the acco, when you want to get it in let me know! Im pretty sure he doesnt plastic weld but can get it organised at a decent price

Cool, I'll hit you up once I've sourced some panels...

Could have been worse...

    • Resizing injectors in Nistune can be done a couple of ways, and there are a couple of ways that you can make a mess of it. The tuner needs to be really aware of the effects of whichever approach he uses (either K, or TIM). They are both easy enough to "get the injector size right" to run the engine. But little details like old start enrichment and hot start are affected differently, depending on which boxes you check.
    • Pretty safe to say almost everyone that has tuned their own car has experienced this issue. The difference being that we have our laptop in the car and when it happens, it's literally 10 seconds of tuning to sort it.  Would you be happy to plug in your laptop and sort this yourself? It is a very simple process and there is no risk of harming your engine (if you are worried about that). 
    • Yeah thats the next step now, either they wil or i will take out for a drive to work and go straight their after work and see is we get the same issues 🤞  thought i try my luck here too, never know someone else might have had the same issue but thanks for the reply 
    • Basically your tuner needs to drive it for the 30 min (or whatever) to create the same conditions then check the ECU settings and sensors at that time. They may not be excited to because that takes them 30 min rather than just opening the bonnet and seeing the problem straight away.... Hot start is generally not as tricky as cold start, but there would be a table for fuel enrichment vs coolant temp as a starting point
    • Yeah, they all cant say anything for sure as everything is working fine . Said unable to find an issue untill it stops again. Could mist likely be CAS wiring or IAS valve issue but again not 100%
