Would this be of any interest, Scotsman?

Maybe SAUVIC could enter a 3 car team?

Perhaps...

So is this event similar to dutton in that it's a total event with lots of sub events?

It sounds like there is two events running simultaneously with an observation rally running with a touring rally.

Do these guys close off any cool road sections or anything like that or is it just drive from one motorkhana to another?

Me too man. Have you got much left in the AO50s? I wanna see you get a 35 if the tyres are still good.

there is a fair amount left on them. i will be shitty if i cant break a 35.... but im just pulling numbers out of my ass.

hopefully it is dry... none of this intermittant crap. i wont complain if it pours all day... winton is SO much fun in the wet.

watching some of their vids it looks like you could blow them away in the gemini :happy:

Great effort guys, congrats on the win. Ryan, top stuff mate, awesome times at PI and HH. Go the S13!!

Thanks mate, just bridging the gap till you get back... any news on yours??

AND CAR 39!!!! :(

Haha I don't think so, I may be chasing you for a while!

My never-ending-story of a car will hopefully be back over the next few weeks. The engine is out of it again with oil pump dramas, so I've bought a new one and it's being machined and installed at the moment along with a new set of big end bearings. The rest is pretty much done, so it's up to my engine builders to get it back, then bolt it in, tune it and off we go... hopefully... :P

Hey guys,

Just a heads up that all the images are now online - www.atcphotos.com

there was a delay with getting the Lang Lang images on-line due to Holden needing to approve them all first.., but they are alll approved now.

all images are at 800x533pixels in the main galleries, but the Hires section has 1960x1360pixels ( just click on the "FULL SIZE" icon above the image.

Cheers

So when is Winton Ryan? I dont have many lap around the place, i have done more from the passenger seat doign driver training :D But a 36 is 100% possible without all that many laps, so i have my fingers crossed that with some decent weather and 14-16 laps to get dialled in you can get well into the 35s :D COME ON! :)

We need a winton thread. its going to be HUGE! with the way the car handles at the moment god knows how it will actually go... its very different to the way it use to be, im thinkin its because the rear end is now all sweet.

4 weeks, your car could be done and your probably due for some time off... how bout it?

I have no idea, but yeah as of seeing the vids, it doesn't look that hard ( :blink: ). I was thinking of entering the Superfunhappyracingswift, but it's FWD and the GF is not up to navigating speed....yet :laugh: (plus i'll be OS when it's on)

It looks like a Rally event on tarmac....just navigate your way to each special stage, and then complete on motorkhana kinda stages then off to the next location for the next motorkhana stage.

Motorkhana and navigating skills look like the order of the day. :P

But next year i'll be entering....providing the Swift is gone :laugh:

Havent given my car a thought since Dutton, so no clue where it is at and care factor is pretty low since i am going to be OS for some time to come...lol project has copped further commissioning delays so how does November now sound :D. So no way i can make it back to Aus...perhaps when i am up for a new visa but even then now that you are setting some good rwd times i am happy to sit back and let you settle my arguments :)

Ah Troy, just throw me the keys, I'll let you know how deep into the 35's I get.

You know you want to... :D

Jak if you could fit into it then no issues with trusting you with the keys. As for Ryan, no way. The guy has an appetite for breaking rear ends, gearboxes and other wierd stuff. I suppose thats the price for going quick

LOL how quickly we forget a particular round at PI a while ago :D

      R33 persistent issues. P/steering and lag/misfire

      By MissMintyR33 · Posted

      Thanks, I'll shim that plug and hopefully it fixes it.  Yes still factory turbo for now, still have the misfire it's not as bad but still noticeable

      By MissMintyR33 · Posted

      I had someone check the CU, they said it was fine but it could be buggered  I was only running around 7-10 PSI on the dual stage controller, but my boost gauge is shit house and needs replacing so I'm not getting a true reading.  Then I ran from wastegate pressure as per Turbosmart but still have the same sort of issue

      Yeah this is a thing. I've had mine setup like this for a few years now, works fine. If I dredge my memory bank, I think I had to do this after I removed my factory dash.  So you've tried it on gate pressure, I'm assuming this is the factory turbo? Did you still have misfire issues with that setup?

      Power steering is probably because someone has nuked the HICAS CU and you no longer have the variable power asist doing what it is supposed to. How much boost are you running? You are aware that any more than 10 psi on the stock ECU is just asking for it to go to full R&R (that's Rich & Retard, which is effectively Retarded and Retarded!) which kills all the power. Depending on the exact conditions, it can just be runnign on the fat and stupid end of the maps, then the conditions change, you make a little more boost and the ECU goes into panic.

      @BuiltNotBought Just as GTSboy said.   If you want driveabilty and more low down torque..keep the stock runners. They are VERY good from a factory. I have them too on my RB25DET NEO and as a GTSboy i have fmic but with stock piping route(i have Blitz intercooler) Iam making around 320 BHP and the car pulls "hard" from like 2,5k all the way to 7k. I have it dyno tuned to mimic N/A power curve and making little less max torque due to the smallbox tranny. But driveability is very great. I had 350Nm below 3k so car feels very quick.   EDIT:  Not my channel but i saw this and i know that is what i want (and i have exactly this)
