Racing in my first real grid race on saturday....bit nervous about it but looking forward to it!!

So excited for you mate, sadly i will not be able to make it as i have to work :P . It is a piss poor excuse i know but i will be out on the track with you soon i hope.

I am interested to see your thoughts on the shift light set up i am in the market for one.

Charles!

Hows it going mate?

So far so good!

I had Clappa fit it this arvo, he made it look very easy!!!

the default setting goes off at 1k, 2k, 3k, 4k - all the green lights

then 5k is organise, 6k orange and 7k is red.

I drove home from clappas and gave it a hit here and there, works well.

it also picks up theat if your crusing at a certain rpm (say 2.5k rpm) on the freeway for a couple of mins, it actually dims the lights.

So big ups to Clappa for helping me out once again!! infact, I think him and Ando have done the most work on my car haha

sorry to hear that :P things were going well. still I'd rather be building a 4 cylinder MX5 donk than a straight 6 RB... :D

hopefully it will be back together better than before. :laugh: any word on what made it die?

    • Thanks mate, couldn't find in VIC, ended up ordering one from NSW, getting rwc to get new plates and registration done.
    • Before all the EFR fan boys come in, have a look at: https://www.garrettmotion.com/racing-and-performance/performance-catalog/turbo/g-series-ii-g30-825-58mm/ It also comes in a T4 1.06 divided housing. I would dare say if you want response & also decent power, this thing would chop.   AND apologies, just re-read your post, you've already bought the turbo... whatever you do, make sure you stick with divided housing and proper twin scroll manifold.
    • People have got to stop doing that. ShatGPT is not a search engine. It is a hallucination factory.   I also would recommend the 1.05. The .83 will "work" for you , in that it will be more responsive, but I think you'll find that it won't be anywhere near as good running it out to 8000rpm as the big housing will be.
    • Decided for the first time ever I would tow my car TO the track day on the same working theory as bringing tools and spares "if I have it I wont need it, but if I leave it behind i will 100% need it" all setup and ready to go out and try these A050 for the first time First session showed I needed to stiffen up the dampers a touch but still managed a few 1:21's without much effort. things were looking good. Came in a dropped the tyres down  to 26/28 as they had gotten to 35/33C from 22C cold The first lap of session two I managed to drop into 1:20's. Then in the second lap into the second session. Coming into T3 and I suddenly lost brake pedal followed by some huge rear end vibrations and scraping sounds. Got it back into the pits after session ended and found this. in the attached video, all of the wobble is in the hub its self, wheel is mint, and bearing feels tight. lKXLqpd - Imgur.mp4   Deciding it was a bent spindle I tried to find bearing/hub assembly locally but was unsuccessful so it was loaded back onto the trailer i luckily brought it on to drag it back home
