Recommended Posts

yeah drift days would be good.

I'm considering looking into them as well but I think it should be a drift competion Like drift tengouku and use the skid pan as the prcatice days I ahve heard great things about the skid pan and I might be going out to one my self.

cheers

hey,, i missed this thread....

i'm organising the next drift training on a skidpan... nothing compared to JMS event in adelaide, but at least it allows ppl to experience sideways action while absolutely know nothing about it....

the instructor was actually keen on starting a local drift scene in VIC, having trying to run a full drift day. However, (sadly) the response has not been very positive. At this moment I don't think we have any sponsors, so anyone going will have to fork out around $200-300 bucks for it, and that is one of the reason that deters most of us... all these is mainly to pay for use of facility, as proper race tracks are quite expensive to rent, not to mention that some location requires a certain level of public liability insurance, which can get really really expensive!

Probably if we can get some sponsor support, then things like what's been going on in SA, QLD can also happens here...

    • The car remains in paint jail. I am now pretty convinced that the whole "RB25 Airboxes are kinda limiting to ~300kw" could be a thing. Also saw a good video from Engine Masters: (Sorry for FB link) (https://www.facebook.com/watch/?ref=search&v=761771519471924&external_log_id=c10bcbb6-2c39-4ff3-9240-287e9921fde6&q=Cold Air Considerations) Where they tested Pod Filter sizes and kept adding bends to a LS3 on an Engine Dyno to find if bends caused power loss. It's a good video worth watching - They did lose ~25hp from making an intake which had 3x90's and a 120 degree. They only lost maybe 1hp with a basic 90. I feel that by sealing up my airbox I have: 1) Created the same restriction a stock airbox would have. 2) Created a very convoluted set of intake 'pipes' by forcing all the air through the ducts. So I am pretty confident I'll be going full circle and have a huge hot air intake pod and actually see a benefit. The air does *not* stay hot once it gets flowing, aided by the ducts, and the pod can then pull air from anywhere. All the posts of yore talk about the stock airbox costing 10-15kw at 300kw+ but you know what? I f**king would very much like that 10-15kw and I remember my own pod filter in engine bay experiences. Turns out the GTT Reo and Headlight brackets really don't allow you to mount GTR items, no matter what the internet says. Various brackets have had to be made up to actually make it fit right for the front bar. Also some idiot mounted a 3L Accusump right where the bumper wants to go, so that has had to be 'relocated' To where, I am still not sure, but it's supposedly mounted in the pictures and I can't see it.
    • Sounds like the oil pressure light is wired into the oil temp sensor... As it warms up, resistance on temp sensor reduces, hence more current can flow and the dash light gets brighter.
    • Got the front subframe and suspension in.    
    • If it's cold in summer, then no issue. If it's cutting out every few seconds and you're not reaching your target temp, then there's an issue. One could be the pressure switch and the other issue could be the temp probe inside the evaporator.
