Quite a well organised event and had a heap of fun. Even with the early morning rain and late afternoon wind it didnt seem to effect the fun. Knew my little car wouldn't be suited to this type of event but just wanted to see how it would react and the result was predictable.

Lots of other cars were great fun to watch, some people were big on handbraking every single cone, others liked to throw the back end around and some just drove it as quickly as they could.

If anything I think the only downside of the day was not enough time to actually watch other people compete. Maybe next time instead of having 2 groups on 2 different courses have 1 group at a time and get a set amount of laps then swap to the other group or something I dunno.

If anyone has pics of the little blue car as seen in my avatar please post them up or pm me for my email address.

Good job guys see you at the next event.

OK, thanks to EVERYONE for coming to this event either to participate, volunteer or even just spectate!

To the participants, I'm glad everyone had a good time, and as far as I saw, there were minimum casualties as far as dead or dying cars go. Luckily for everyone who was out there, tyres were the only things to suffer in a major way! This is PROOF that these kinds of days are reasonably easy on your cars.

To the volunteers - "Xmetal" Ian for photos and cone picker-uppering, "~Jay~" Jason, "Oz GTR32V" Paul (and his wife) for help with the BBQ and entertaining us in the Ford "Terrible-tory", Doof's girfriend Anna (and Tegan) for helping with timing, Charles and Clinton, and anyone else who I may have missed - our many thanks for helping out with the running of this event.

To the SAU-NSW Executive crew and support team - Neil, "Abo BOb" Adam, "Sl!m" Sam, "N1GTR" Steve-O, "DRD-00F" Steven, "Ando," Duncan and Kel, and "FloydWestwood" Dave, you all did amazing work to run this day!

Oh, and thanks also to Duncan for taking me out for a run in the Zed in the morning on Course 1 and the Go-to-Woah, and Zane for an afternoon run through the slaloms!

A big big thankyou to all the organisers and everyone who helped out on the day. It was soooo much fun and I can't wait to do it again. Only thing that broke on my car were two brake light globes which is pretty good (Thanks to everyone that let me know) Can't wait for the next one :) I'll try and get some pics up as soon as I can.

Looked like a great day! I was very disappointed when I couldn't get my car back together in time. I had two sets of tyres ready and a keen interest to destroy them.

Glad to see someone picked up my entry on the day, #34. Whoever it was, drop me a pm so we can chat.

      RB26DETT Sketchy boost mod?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      There's restrictor pills in the stock boost control hoses. That's how they set the amount that was bled off and hence the "high" boost setting. The usual mod in the day was to remove it and send the "high" boost setting up to about 14 psi.

      RB26DETT Sketchy boost mod?

      By ARB26 · Posted

      Thanks Duncan, that's the best info I've read. Furthermore after learning about the PCM programming side controlling the factory boost solenoid, the purpose of the solenoid is to "bleed" boost when pin 25 is earthed, thus allowing spring pressure in the wastegate actuator to overcome diaphragm boost pressure, thus closing or reducing the position of the wastegate flap creating more boost as the turbo is able to spin faster. It's pretty cool to see a designated Pill to do exactly this, would have liked to have seen it with a tiny filter over the end for those moments in vacuum.  The constant bleed pill has now been removed completely from the system and solenoid boost control has been restored once again.   Case closed 😂

      Cas issue

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.

      By Duncan · Posted

      Manual boost controllers (where a little of the boost was bled off) were quite common back in the day, because they were cheap and easy. Generally they had a manual adjustment screw rather than being fixed like yours. Down side is they always bleed boost, not just when you want them to so an electronic boost controller that uses a solenoid will have less lag.
