All logic goes out the window in the wet....fark knows how to drive a car quick in the wet :P Especially on slicks, a light car and damp...with a car pulling away in front so you just want to push on and cath him :(

Me? I would have been ff at turn 3 lap 1

The only thing constructive i can say is you either drive the thing mega straight off boost and light throttle openings so as not to slide the thing...OR you just punt the thing sideways on every corner...you are sliding it and anticipating the slide so it doesnt catch you out and also helps throw heat into the tyres ....lol listen to me, it works when i drive go karts in the wet :)

If you're referring to me then don't get me wrong, I'm not having a go at all and I'm sure he is much more experienced and better driver than I am! Apologies if it was taken the wrong way but I did try and clarify with "to each their own", just saying it was a different style to what I'm accustomed. :P

Was there much damage?

Brilliant car. Does it really need a 900hp RB26/30? lol

Unfortunate accident though. It seems he was still on it as he was turning left and the rear end of the car just came around on him under boost. Not much he could have done in that instance.

Do you have any external pics of it?

Fixed :down:

Fark me ... look at those tyres. No wonder it has good traction! :/

How does the little Caterham thingy in the background go? After driving one recently i want to buy one and throw my money away on another car project that I'll never get around to finishing.

    • You’ll be very upset when you bust that too not to mention the gearing totally sucks. Don’t do it.
    • Is the panel filter one that is oiled? Have you ever cleaned or touched the AFM?
    • So.... the K&N air box thingo was too big, ended up gifting it to a mate, well, by gifting it he actually supplied food and beer at the pub,  which was nice, as it will not sit on a shelf in the garage for the next 10 years I did trim up some of the existing stuff to neaten it all up and gave it some wrinkle paint, unfortunately it currently has a used and abused mish mash of different types of hose clamps, 4 big fat T bolt type (shit), and a few normal clamps of vairing sizes and brands, but..... only until the 6 constant tension black worm clamps that I ordered from EFI solutions turn up next week Currently the current hose clamps are triggering me hard, LOL Is this the final version, probably not, I really want just 2 silicone pieces, a straight bit of silicone from the filter to the MAF is easy and will happen as soon as I head into Just Jap tomorrow, the problematic part is a 30° silicone bend from the MAF to the TB that I can connect the engine breather from the head, I found that there are bulk head fittings for boat bilge pumps that should work, but until I can get a 30° silicone bend the alloy pipe, and the 11ty thousand hose clamps, are there for the foreseeable future 4 hose clamps are golden, 6 are grudgingly acceptable, the 8 currently holding it all together is just taking the piss    I've also ordered 60 more retaining wall blocks for the front yard, I mis-gonculated the height that was required to get above the base of the Photinia's (red robin's) that are the hedge behind the front fence, currently it is 2 blocks high, and about 1/2 a block short, so going 3 blocks high will be above the base of the red robin's, and allow some room for mulch
    • It is the stock air box with the panel filter. Everything else is stock except the exhaust at this point, as I also went back to the cleaned 270cc injectors. I will check the RPM when the IACV is unplugged and report back.
    • As MBS suggested if this is happening when the engine is cold you're going to want to remove the intake air regulator and verify resistance + that the shutter is physically opening and closing. At -20C should be fully open, 20C half open, over 60C fully closed. At 20C should be 70-80 ohms. For AAC valve testing using a Consult cable see if you can raise and lower the idle by commanding more or less AAC duty cycle. Hopefully it's pretty linear as well, shouldn't be like 30% AAC valve is barely idling and 40% is 1500 rpm.
