hey menios, depending on the exact mix of events, something like a clio can be a top 10 chance too - the NSW event had heaps of wet skidpans, and big hp RWD cars get caned in events like that unless they have traction control.

mmm, FULL RACE 32 GTR....not a bad idea :)

np Zane, there is no requirement for fireproof clothes so bikinis are OK.

Dan, I'm sure Kel will be in that, they'll probably have more luck with sponsors than the rest of us put together lol

I was just speaking to Anthony Moss (NSW Director) today and he said that he already had nearly half the field confirmed for this years event. There has been no advertising or promotion of this years event, (they have been concentrating on the Porsche Mt Buller Sprint (on this weekend) and the response and confirmation has been enormous so far.

NSW Event

4th to 6th June 2004

VIC Event

8th to 10th August 2004

Official NSW launch will be in the next couple of weeks and the website will be updated etc. - so make sure you get in early as they will start to flood in as advertising starts and more people become aware of the event.

Slight error - Vic is 6th to 8th August 2004!

I'm in talks currently to be possibly SAU's only Vic representative! I've been in contact with Sam Beck from VicDutton and I'll get my car onto the track (Phillip Island) for the first time Feb 15. If everything goes well then I'm very keen to give it a shot.

And if so I might have to come up to Syd and have a chat to you all during NSWDutton for some extra tips.

Cheers. :P

      I'd be worried about having to parallel park a boat like that. Magnificent car though.

      This car has run before on this z32 ecu can get the part number for you, I have tried with no AFM it didn’t change anything, I compression tested today 140-150 across all 6 cylinders, also set fuel pressure to 43psi. The only weird thing was cylinder 1 plug was black and fouled other 5 cylinders were just wet with fuel. Spun cas by hand and confirmed injectors are clicking

      Since you came here to ask for help, have you thought about answering our questions, that might help us lead you to why it was skipping, or have you given up on getting advice?

      A 1.5 way is a 2 way. It is just a 2 way with a less aggressive ramp on overrun.

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      The ABS and/or TCS being missing/broken will not cause the engine to misbehave. It just casues CEL to come on and annoy you. The CEL is useless if it is always on, so you have to do the things you have to do to get rid of it, so it can be useful. Being a Stag ECU, then yes, it will not expect TCS to be present. But it will expect ABS to be present and working. You will need to either make the ABS CU talk to the ECU (don't ask me what that will take on an NA R34), and make sure the hardware is working....or, you just need to blank it out in Nistune. Do not persist with the stock ECU. You will just have problems. Gte it Nistuned. Start from there. DO YOU HAVE A BOOST SENSOR? The ECU's boost sensor that it. It is connected to the loom at the rear of the coil cover. Usually rides on the firewall on an R34, but is usually bolted down to a bracket along with all the other crap at the back of the coil cover when a Neo is dropped into another car. If you do not have it, the ECU will shit the bed. So, do you have one?
