I took like 150 shots Stewy, I think I may have one of you half way thru a slide on that S bend, most turned out sh!t. Still learning how to use the camera lol

Is your 32 street driven/regiestered?

Seriously thinking about building a pig s13...?

yeh it's street driven, although might not drive it heaps with the new dents, will attract too much attention til i repair it.

public drift prac costs $100, + day cams license (if u dont have one), temp costs $25 i think. private practice days where it's u and around 10-15 other cars (tonnes of track time) costs around $300, G1 costs $165.

the rests of the costs depend, for me i go through f**k all fuel, for praccies i use 2nd handies which cost me f**k all, for comps i run newies which cost me $100 a pop and last me all day.

props to dale who took out the second division in his sil80. saw all the vids and footage before had a mate who went and took my camera.. i had to work :angry:

(edit)** sorry to hear u got in mischiefe stewy. car wasnt too beaten up was it?

nah it's fine, as long as im not bending rails im happy. some people are content with finding a safe level, and slowly working from that, honestly i find it a lot more fun to just go as hard as possible and see what happens. thats why i have tonnes of fun, but it also means u have to expect a stack every now and then.

Not bad, hearing that tyres really dont get wasted straight away,

I guess your running a std RB20? Mods? I guess the usual oil cooler, FMIC, straight pipes :angry:, Rev limiter so you dont pop the motor?

I am really, really keen on building a pig 13 man. Might be able to pickup a Rb25 reasonably cheap

More the stress of going out on a prac day and people getting really close to my rear end and slowing people down etc

If you can maybe PM me the information rather then thrashin all over the forum? Also what suspension setup etc your running :)

Cheers man.

    • If you take the top half of the intake off you can unbolt the flap off the shaft and leave the shaft in there blocking the hole. Then you can remove the little vacuum canister off from under the manifold and get a spare vacuum line to run to the ECU. I can take some photos of it later. Probably best to get the vacuum source to the ECU sorted first though. Mine all worked mint with the base map from the GTT an I've pretty much let the closed loop sort the fueling and took 1 degree out of the whole timing map.
    • This IS something you also have to configure in Haltech (or at least I did in the past when going from onboard-to-ECU map sensor and an external MAP sensor in haltech land).
    • I'm hoping it's something as simple as the ECU is looking for an external MAP sensor, but he is trying to use the onboard MAP sensor.
    • You won't need to do that if your happy to learn to tune it yourself. You 100% do not need to do that. It is not part of the learning process. It's not like driving on track and 'finding the limit by stepping over the limit'. You should not ever accidently blow up an engine and you should have setup the ECU's engine protection to save you from yourself while you are learning anyway. Plenty of us have tuned their own cars, myself included. We still come here for advice/guidance/new ideas etc.  What have you been doing so far to learn how to tune?
    • Put the ECU's MAP line in your mouth. Blow as hard as you can. You should be able to see about 10 kPa, maybe 15 kPa positive pressure. Suck on it. You should be able to generate a decent vacuum to about the same level also. Note that this is only ~2 psi either way. If the MAP is reading -5 psi all the time, ignition on, engine running or not, driving around or not, then it is severely f**ked. Also, you SHOULD NOT BE DRIVING IT WITHOUT A LOAD REFERENCE. You will break the engine. Badly.
