Martin/Noel what do I need to run in the sprints?

AASSASASA License?

Helmet

Long sleeved shirt, pants enclosed shoes.

Extinguisher req'd?

I want to start doing a few sprints this year so I want to start getting this stuff sorted out.

Car wise the only plans are

Service

New pads, rotors, fluid, braided brake lines

Oil cooler

No extinguiser required Col but it isnt a bad thing to have.

Other than your above list all you need is a helmet. Its a good idea to have your spanner do a pre track inspection if its your cars first serious outing.

AASA licence yep. Can buy one on the day $20 for day licence or $55 for yearly licence (from memory).

Helmet yes.

Long sleeve shirt and pants yes (technically must be flame proof or some sh*t)

Enclosed shoes yes.

No extinguisher required.

I always carry a tonne of tools, but that is probably just because my car always breaks :P

Yep always a good idea.

So... Ice Cream tonight? Who's keen?

In.

Will be there most probably.

Probably? What's this probably sh*t?

Long sleeve shirt and pants yes (technically must be flame proof or some sh*t)

Probably something non synthetic that won't melt if you do catch it on fire.

Anyway i'll rock up tonight, hell i might even wash my car first if its not going to rain.

The chair.

Cool. I must ask you about that tonight...

Probably something non synthetic that won't melt if you do catch it on fire.

Yeah that's the one. Cotton is good.

I should be there this evening, pending no last minute complications

Kids had their shots last night, so are a bit fussy at the moment

Deal them some tough love.

Car back at 4pm :) Who's a happy man? I AM!

Race? :P

One way to figure out what the next weakest link in the car is :P

Then it can go back to Dan and he can put up with my bitching all over again!

Bitching? hardly!

Gave the car a quick wash. Effort spent waxing it last month finally pays off! and will again and again for the next... few months. (its turtle wax that's supposed to last at least 6 months, however the manufacture date is 2001.)

    • I guess one thing that might be wrong is the manifold pressure.  It is a constant -5.9 and never moves even under 100% throttle and load.  I would expect it to atleast go to 0 correct?  It's doing this with the OEM MAP as well as the ECU vacuum sensor. When trying to tune the base map under load the crosshairs only climb vertically with RPM, but always in the -5.9 column.
    • 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.
