at this stage it will be Mark, Rebecca and I... Not sure about SteadyEddy/Chris.

Jeno and Jo can't be there :)

Bullet32 is too soft and has a frangipani show on

James doesn't know what he's missing out on

Donnons mum won't let him

Reeces car is never in one piece long enough and he still hasn't given me back my clutch line :(

hmm that enuff sm@rt @rsin' from me to make up for being so quiet lately :)

You were doing some great times out there at the last one. Well done!! I thought it was impressive given you haven't had a lot of runs around that track. I think you'll be putting up a great battle at future events.

In regards to the actual hillclimb times. Do the GTS-T's suffer much from RWD syndrome? I know there are lots of other RWD cars that run but in comparison to the GTR's around the circuit, how do they fair??

P.S - I bought a helmet today and my diff is fixed so I'll be out joining in with you guys once I have a membership with someone + CAMS licence. I don't think i'll be out for competition, i just want to go out and come back with a big smile on my face.

I've actually got a motorkhana on that weekend up in Newcastle, and your clutch line will be back to you in the next week :D

:P YES, I think its worth at least 2 seconds in the launch, but its not as bad around the track, I think lag would be a bigger problem than grip up the hill.

I'm another one that can't go now, booked to go to Melbourne. Shame I'll have to wait 12 months for a 2 lapper. Money's been put towards the next two events.

My times were ok, hoping to slip into the 47's Still not too bad considering all the people that beat me on the day came in fully preped race WRX sti/EVO's. I have all the grip I need right now, the body roll is the main problem.

I wanted to see the upgraded GTR beast go around the track.

So you would agree Reece that the GTS-T's would be disadvantaged enough to not warrant fighting for positions against other suitable hill climb cars and they should really just aim for the fun and social aspect of it (and against other GTS-Ts)..

If so, that so doesn't worry me, because I'm all for the fun of the thing more than anything.

^^ what he said.

The GTST's are in a different class. I won quite a few classes with my GTST and if its smile factor you're after... then you're going to get value for money.

Ahh didn't think about classes, thanks guys.

Yeh, I'm more than keen to start running in these events, I keep watching all the SDMA vids on youtube making me more and more keen.

Yeah the GTR's are in type SV and we are in Type1-2-3 (depending on mods) over 3000cc. We are extremely competitive in type 1/2 but not as much in type 3.

Did I miss something here? "over 3000cc"?

Does anyone have a list of what mods put you in what class?

      Strange issue RB25DET wont start

      By jtha7 · Posted

      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.

      Strange issue RB25DET wont start

      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.

      Freddy Plenum vs Genuine options RB25

      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.
