Bernie and his kunt daughters can eat the carrot from my cable! I was pissed off when I heard about the camera gig. That wasnt explained at time of entry ... it helped me hide the pain of missing out.

Portimao was a great track. Better than Estoril and maybe just better than Zandvoort. It has plenty going on to keep you confused. It was harder for me to learn than any other track I have driven...though I suspect Bathurst will be a head warp for me as well. The lil R300 was so hard to drive straight....after some laps of throwing it around and losing it every secon lap the lasting fun was trying to drive it straight and get drive out of corners

If Iberia goes ahead again next year I am going to have to get the R32 over for it. Two days at Portimao in teh R32 would be epic. Would be a great track for a decent powered rwd Skyline

Hey Guys,

im always on here checking out peoples in car videos for motivation but have never pulled my finger out to put one of my own up.

This a 88 hr31 skyline that my brother and i race at supersprints and practice days. We managed a 1:07.03 with poor rear traction at the new south circuit at eastern creek.

(Note: dampers were wound all the way to hard rather than soft last track day so you can see its abit taily! has since been rectifyed!)

Has a Rb25 engine and gearbox, K sport big brakes and coilover, motec and fuel system plus HEAPS more.

Hope you enjoy the video! Cant get the youtube link to show the video here... just have to click the link

Cheers! It should be abit neater next time!

I figured I'd smell the fuel leak before she ignites and if I don't it would e too late anyhow. But I like to keep it neat and tidy looking, even though I only drive it to the track.

The Marshall's definatly noticed a skyline sliding heaps.

Alex, I saw you there on the ARDC practice day. Your car looks and sounds amazing :yes:

I was in the white Evo 6 and the good wife in the green Focus RS.

Thanks mate! Had a good day! We were watching you lift your inside rear wheel well off the ground every lap!

Quick question. I noticed your wife was in another group. We were In L2S group, what licence does she have?

Me and my brother both drive our car and paid 105 each. We asked the guys at registration if we could go in seperate groups so we wouldnt hve to share the L2S session but they were just rude an gave me no reason but "no you can't" and that you can't go in that group with a L2S licence.

So we had to share the session for the same money. Was not impressed cause it never been like that at previous practice days.

Any info would be good cause I want to make sure it doesn't happen again.

Cheers

on the weekend the WA CAMS Speed Event Series did a super sprint in support of the ARC rally guys on there Busselton Super Special Stage.

My day started ok but on my 2nd run i found out for real that concrete always wins.

Vid:

fixed it up and went out and finished the day.

    • I thought that might be the case, thats what I'll start saving for. Thanks for the info 
    • Ps i found the below forum and it seems to be the same scenario Im dealing with. Going to check my ECU coolant temp wire tomorrow    From NICOclub forum: s1 RB25det flooding at start up Thu Apr 11, 2013 7:23 am I am completely lost on this. Car ran perfectly fine when I parked it at the end of the year. I took the engine out and painted the engine bay, and put a fuel cell with an inline walbro 255 instead of the in tank unit I had last year. After reinstalling everything, the engine floods when the fuel pump primes. if i pull the fuel pump fuse it'll start, and as soon as I put the fuse back in it starts running ridiculously rich. I checked the tps voltage, and its fine. Cleaned the maf as it had some dust from sitting on a shelf all winter, fuel pressure is correct while running, but wont fire until there is less than 5psi in the lines. The fuel lines are run correctly. I have found a few threads with the same problem but no actual explanation of what fixed it, the threads just ended. Any help would be appreciated.

I found the problem though. There was a break in one of the ecu coolant temp sensor wires. Once it was repaired it fired right up with no problems. I would have never thought a non working coolant temp sensor would have caused such an issue.
    • Hi sorry late reply I didnt get a chance to take any pics (my mechanics on the other side of the city) but the plugs were fouled from being too rich. I noticed the MAF wasn't genuine, so I replaced it with a genuine green label unit. I also swapped in a different ignitor, but the issue remains. I've narrowed it down a bit now: - If I unplug and reconnect the fuel lines and install fresh spark plugs, the car starts right up and runs perfectly. Took it around the block with no issues - As soon as I shut it off and try to restart, it won't start again - Fuel pressure while cranking is steady around 40 psi, injectors have good spray, return line is clear, and the FPR vacuum is working. It just seems like it's getting flooded after the first start I unplugged coolant sensors to see if its related to ECU flooding but that didnt make a difference. Im thinking its related to this because this issue only started happening after fixing coolant leaks and replacing the bottom part of the stock manifolds coolant pipe. My mechanic took off the inlet to get to get to do these repairs. My mechanics actually just an old mate who's retired now so ill be taking it to a different mechanic who i know has exp with RBs to see if they find anything. If you have any ideas please send em lll give it a try. Ive tried other things like swapping the injectors, fuel rail, different fuel pressure regs, different ignitor, spark plugs, comp test and MAF but the same issue persists.
    • My return flow is custom and puts the return behind the reo, instead of at the bottom. All my core is in the air flow, rather than losing some of it up behind the reo. I realise that the core really acts more as a spiky heatsink than as a constant rate heat exchanger, and that therefore size is important.... but mine fits everything I needed and wanted without having to cut anything, and that's worth something too. And there won't be a hot patch of core up behind the reo after every hit, releasing heat back into the intake air.
    • There is a really fun solution to this problem, buy a Haltech (or ECU of your choice) and put the MAF in the bin.  I'm assuming your going to want more power in future, so you'll need to get the ECU at some stage. I'd put the new MAF money towards the new ECU.
