Oh, and this track bitch still has its wheels pointing in different directions, so there are still some things to do tomorrow morning.

Hopefully they'll still let me on the track if I miss the morning scrutineering session :P

It's going to be about zero degrees at 8am anyway. Way too cold to be standing trackside. I'll arrive after the sun comes out :O

you just worry about tomm.

in good time.

Too late then.... I've got my eye on another one that I'm going to see for the second time this weekend.

I've waited for your photos for 2 weeks now... Can't be that hard to get someone to take some snapshots for you :P

no biggie...im not that desperate to sell...ive been home only a few days...spending time with my young family has been my priority as ive not seen them for nearly 3 months...and photo's of it in the dark when i get home from work would be pretty pointless....ll take some on the weekend if you are still in the market.

lol the threat of "the photo" is probably worse than the photo itself.

but paul is dead right, all you need to worry about is the car tomorrow, will be great to see 2 new sau dedicated track cars debut on the same day!

Oh Harsh,,so very Harsh,,,It won't explode,,it's basically a stocker.

i hope it dosn't explode, but i'd much rather be freezing my nuts off at a track, than freezing my nuts off at work.

Well.... Car didn't make it to the track.

Problem with the clutch apparently, will know more next week I guess.

Punted the Beemah around instead, which was fun... Great handling car, but needed MUCH stickier tyres to get some real corner speed.

Even though it sucked the GTR didnt make, it, it was still good to cath up mate and the BMW sounds hot as!

When I was flagging at the flip flop, the sound of the motor around that part of the track was awesome!

      Cas issue

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.

      RB26DETT Sketchy boost mod?

      By Duncan · Posted

      Manual boost controllers (where a little of the boost was bled off) were quite common back in the day, because they were cheap and easy. Generally they had a manual adjustment screw rather than being fixed like yours. Down side is they always bleed boost, not just when you want them to so an electronic boost controller that uses a solenoid will have less lag.

      Legend. I ended up finding the facebook account of the owner of the first car i sent but sadly he deactivated the account. I think you’re right in saying it’s some sort of well done custom job. Really appreciate your help anyways.

      boost source Size Garrett gt28 gen2

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Totally equivalent. Stock often goes from the comp cover because that's where the actuator is also installed and the factory needs 2" of hose to make the connection - and it comes as a pre-assembled unit. They totally have a boost reference from somewhere between the turbo and the throttle(s). Oh, jeez. Just do it in M12 then. We don't actually care that much. I would expect any such AN converter fitting to rely on an o-ring or some other seal onto a flat surface under the flange of the hex**, because bolt threads are no intended to provide a pressure seal. unlike..... pipe threads. **which also requires a suitably flat and smooth surface on the turbo's boss to provide the seal.
