BIRDS have a look at this

Tell me what this man should have done from about the 24-30 second mark. If you think it would be quicker to change to second and then back to first then you're dreaming. If you put the clutch in you start to slow down, if you back off early you lose time. Please explain.

The other thing is that in a sub 30 second run of a motorkhana, the extra bit of heat you get in your tyres from a bit of wheel spin early may well be worth more time in grip than you lose initially. I don't know that it is but I bet you don't know that it isn't.

I think you've made some good points but perhaps you are basing too much of your theory on circuit racing. But even in circuit racing you have those moments where you just nudge your rev limiter a moment before your braking point where it is not worth going to the next gear. How do you handle these situations?

Well it looks like a seat is needed for the Silvia sooner than I thought. The back has torn away from the base bracket which explains why I could only sit in hectic VL turbo mode or literally hang off the steering wheel for the second half of the day lol

Made for some interesting driving :down:

Who's got a seat to suit an S13 they wanna sell me!

I'm happy with that. Not any awesome results, but nothing terrible either.

Definately bring on next Nov. I was let down by my Mini and Long Wang times. I was a bit nervous about pushing the car on such high speed tracks, but the next time I think I'll give it a bit more stick.

Still can't believe a stock 110awkw auto Evo driven by someone who has never done anything like this before managed to pull such awesome scores. Now I see why people call Evo's cheats.

Great work guys..

Congrats to the winners... Chris & Russman..

Good to see Russell Gilder right up there, he was driving the pants of that thing...

Also I reckon the quite achiever of the day would have to be Dane Stokes...

He was putting around all day in that little STI just putting down some consistantly quick times...

Just missed out on the Outright Podium... good work...

Cheaters aside... :blush::(

the RWD boys/girls did a great job aswell.

I'm happy with my results too... as long as there is a Corona in the top 20 it is all good..

Sticking it to all you Modern Chassis / Modern suspension setup, plastic fantastics...

One day... One day Corona's will rule to world.........of Deca..

*waits for Ryan to pipe up* :laugh:

Your long wang time would have been better if you didn't try and stop at the finishe line :blush:

Well done to all... except you Russ... 2 points! :blush: Haha nah, well done mate, nice driving! I can't believe I went right instead of left at the last cone on the first skidpan event... ahhhh woulda, coulda, shoulda :laugh:

But I'm even more in love with my car now after DECA. I'm so impressed with it for a stock car *hugs*

      The final part arrived today to un-clampify and simplify the intake Who would have though a 1/2" hose stainless bulkhead fitting designed for below waterline bilge pumps would be what I needed Test fit on a 3" offcut I had laying around to see if it would work, and it worked a treat All going well the intake will be on its "final version" tomorrow

      Must have been an absolute nightmare to drive when the power steer was out, the rack ratio/wheel size/caster is all set up for power assistance

      R32 GTS (RB20DE) Injectors Replacement

      By GabsReDeal · Posted

      I checked the injectors again (1 and 2, since they’re easiest to access) to make sure they weren’t clogged. Even though the entire fuel system had been cleaned, I wanted to be certain. Everything looked clean, so I reinstalled and connected everything. When I started the car to confirm everything was okay, it immediately revved up high, so I shut it off straight away. I checked to see if I’d missed a vacuum hose or something, but everything was connected. On the second attempt, the car ran without the high idle, but I noticed a distinct “compressed air” sound coming from the engine bay. Tracing the sound, I pushed injector #6 forward slightly and the noise stopped — it turned out it wasn’t seated properly, despite the fuel rail being bolted down. While holding it in place, the car idled steadily without stalling and ran for over 5 minutes. At this point, I pulled all six injectors out just in case I hadn’t seated them correctly or dirt had gotten onto the O-rings. Unfortunately, I discovered that I had damaged 3 out of 6 injectors (the OEM 270cc ones) during installation. So yes, this was my fault. Since only the pintle caps were damaged, I’ve ordered a Fuel Injector Service Kit from NZEFI to refurbish them. In the meantime, I reinstalled my new injectors – the car now idles fine for over 15 minutes without stalling. I have not attempted to drive it so far. It’s not perfect yet, as it hesitates when the throttle is pressed, but it’s a big improvement. Unplugging the IACV with the new injectors idles at around 800rpm, even with the IACV screw tightened fully. But this is probably due to tune.
