Found out some interesting info today.

Everyone remembers the crash on pt road ages ago. Some teenagers died, everyone says they were drag racing also and doing 160+k's

Had the girls dad come into work today and said the case is still going, there was no drag racing, and were doing around 80-90k's.

Basically the media added drag racing/hoons and speed to get readers/ viewers.

Fu*k media.

If that's accident where a Ford Falcon slammed into a tree.... then I wouldn't believe everything you hear :P

drag racing is not street racing.

"You never had me ... you never had your car!"

Some toss-bag on Ebay has just relisted an item I won on Friday! Won a replacement crank and rods for my RS250 race engine (which I've blown up). Claimed there was no communication, despite the fact I sent him mail saying I was bidding on his barrels and rods also, and his reply was "Great, I've got them boxed up ready to go. Let me know how you go." 2 days later, and before the bidding ends on the other items, he's reslisted them. Makes it more suss when he sent me mail today asking if I was paying soon, as there are other buyers willing to pay more for the crank.

Wanker. :)

    • neither stumble or cut really seem to be an appropriate term....hard to explain its like a rev limiter but at 4k, but it violently shakes engine and entire vehicle as the rpms will not rise over 4k, even with slow acceleration. as soon as it hits 4k, it sounds like entire spark is lost entirely. plugs were 1.1 which I used as such, but later put in new plugs gapped down to .8 changed back after issue arose when I replaced the coils, still does it with either plug gap...damn and it was all running so good.
    • Oh how times have changed! I actually lean it out relative to my water/methanol injector duty cycle. The methanol adds a lot of fueling and you can then lean it out even more due to reduced knock. 
    • Yeah my thoughts are the same, a well thought out WMI setup, would be slightly ahead of just straight E85 and you're also chemically intercooling the charged air, dropping it even further. This is why you need to add so much more fuel as soon as you spray. I remember someone taking me through their set up before (Dennis, has a R33, lives around Cabramatta - no idea if he's still around on this forum). He would target AFR 10:1 on 98, then as WMI ramped on, AFR would lean back up to 11:1. Amazingly, he did this all through his PowerFC, a relay to cut power to his EBC solenoid if there was not enough line pressure on his WMI kit. And of course, if there wasn't any boost made above gate pressure, you wouldn't be accessing the load cells with heaps of timing for WMI. One downside to that rudimentary setup, once the WMI came on, the EBC would unleash the dragon, and of course all the timing. Tyres would fry lol.
