I was so looking forward to the track day at Eastern Creek this Saturday. But my GTR has developed a sputter above 5k RPM and neither I or the shop have figured it out yet (shop's been looking at it since Monday).

So there is a very high chance I will have to sell my spot. I'm looking for someone who is interested in my spot and willing to be my "back-up" for the day. If my car isn't ready to go by Friday afternoon then I'll call you and Martin to confirm.

My loss may be your gain. If I have to pull out, I'll sell you my spot for $200 to recoup some of the loss.

Not many times you get a chance at the Creek for $200! Looks like the weather is going to work out too!

Here's my number 0419 468 835

<Very Bummed - this was going to be the first outing with fully working atessa>

So now open to all offers! My car won't be ready, the ECU is having issues so has to be sent out for repairs.

Guys, make me any offer - the spot is up for grabs.

First one over $150 gets it - that's almost 1/2.

Just got off the phone with a member here who took the initiative to show up at the track this morning and sorted it all out. (I was so depressed I turned off my phone and went to bed at 10:30 last night). Good on ya!

I'm still spewing that I didn't make the day. It would be glorious - look at the weather!

Hope you fair well today bud!

Sorry for you missing out on a great day man. I was there today, unfortunatly I didn't put my car on the track beacuse of my broken leg, but I still went walking on my cratches and watched the skyline guys taking on ferraris, M3's, an M5 and many supras, evos, and wrx's. It was a great day man. Hope to see you on the track next time :D

    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
    • Yeah, I would have said the same. It makes me suggest that there are other things wrong, such that the ECU is totally unhappy with the broken sensor. The only other thought here is that maybe it is shorted, which might cause a different issue to the typical "disconnected" sensor.
