bullshit, everything is defectable. so should people stop supporting south australian motorsport?

did i tell you to stop supporting motorsport? did i make any mention to stop going out there? Dont think so, dont play dumb man, you know aswell as anyone else what cops look for these days, yes it sucks and yes its bullshit but what can you do about it? Exact reason i turned the r31 into a track only car, knew if i drove it on the road much longer i would end up getting pinged.

Anyway, back on topic, best battle for me was as someone else said, fine taking down his old team that f**ked him over, must have been one of the best feelings he has had on track!

Hahahaha!

Wow. Even on the train hey? I wouldnt know cos im always asleep!

Well I didnt see anyone from here... I was there on the Sunday. To be honest I prefer G1 over Supercup.

I got a free hat and stubbie holder from Federal Tires, no cold hands or head!

Luckily we took the SV6 wagon, we didnt even get stopped at the bretho/defect station.

In conclusion I had a good day... besides the wet ass

nice runs stewy, shame about the spin but dam you nailing those scando's into turn 1 now!

haha should have just stuck with the scandos, knew my handbrake was a POS as well, but thats the way it goes.

was a shame that open track was so short, was aiming at starting the scando from before the start line, my one and only attempt got me a few meters after it :cheers:

lol the fact that id just been knocked out of the top 32 for making a stupid decision to go for a "conservative" run did not make me a happy boy.

as a bit of background to that, the reason i went conservative with that entry was because id never drifted on a wet track before, and i only got one run in the practice session in the morning as i got there late, i had nfi if my usual scandos would work in the wet, or whether id end up in the wall lol

turns out they were piss easy lol

Looking at the vid makes me regret not getting out there in the end. Was it windy out there also? How many SAU boys did we have out there, or was Stewy the only one?

Sounds like you had fun. Vid looks good. I'm sure your turn 1 spin would be me all over the track if I tried :D Again, pity I couldn't get out there for a look-see.

Of all the years I've tracked and raced (and the occasional drift) around Mallala on bikes, I've never done it in the wet. Just like you, not sure if I could do a wet track. Wet tracks scare the hell outta me. :D

windows movie maker?

depends what format it is. movie maker doesnt accept a lot of formats, u really need something like premiere or final cut.

btw for anyone that has access to a decent program, use H.264 compressor for internet shit, works a treat.

yeh dunno if i was lucky or unlucky that i never got a wet day, i hate drifting in the wet as its so slow and lazy, but it would have been good to have at least one praccy to get some experience with it before competition. but the time attack boys sure showed some balls going hard in their sessions, saw a few people get loose on the exit of 4.

    • I seem to the be only person that is using a Haltech 2500 on an NA motor, I've installed a Bosch DBW throttle body to the OEM intake manifold and am having problems maintaining AFR even with the wideband o2.  It will run extremely rich at idle and up to redline, but under load it will go extremely lean in the 20s and i'm essentially having to rev it over 4k and feather the clutch to get it up to speed.  I've read a few other threads of about the butterfly, it seems removing the vacuum to it is supposed to have it remain open, i've noticed no difference under 4k with the vacuum line to it plugged.  I'm hoping someone here has had luck using the NA manifold with Haltech, and if they happen to have a tune for it.  
    • I don't know any details, but I really wouldn't be surprised if they do it as a LHD only version, at least initially.
    • Thanks for the replies everyone. Definitely a coolant push. Oil catch can is empty and always has been. As the engine is out now I'll be having a good look over things. I do have some detonation on the piston tops from a trigger issue back about 5 years ago. I felt it and shut off then bought a new ecu and changed the trigger. Never been an issue since. It never hurt the power, its made almost 80hp more since that incident but I will pull the bearing caps to take a look. If the bearings are damaged I will do a bottom end refresh. Head is being re conditioned at the moment and the block will be cleaned and checked to ensure it's flat. I'll go with a kameari gasket and see how it ends up. The other thing I'm not super keen on is the cylinder colours. I suspect this is from the inlet manifold. The plan will be to put it back together, retune and then stick a plazmaman billet inlet on it and retune. I'm happy with the power, if it makes a little more, then great, but I would rather just make everything more efficient at this stage.
    • Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...
    • Does it also misfire equally when revving?   Josh is very correct in what you should do. The coilpack harness wiring loom itself is a known problem due to its age and the number of heat cycles it has gone through. Throwing parts at a vehicle to diagnose the issue isn't a smart or good way to do it. Secondly, you may have a bad coil pack, you pop replacements in, they fix that issue, but messing with the harness breaks it, so the issue persists. So now you think "well it wasn't the coil packs" and have to continue chasing your tail, potentially swapping back in your shit coil packs and returning the good ones (yes, I've seen people do this because 'it wasn't the problem' and they want to save money). And suddenly, you've got two issues with the same symptoms...   Diagnose, don't use the spare parts shotgun.
