Apparantly someone used bad language at a petrol station and its been noted as a possible terrorist attack and travel advices now say to restrict all non essential travel to Australia :ninja: So the Yanks are staying home :(

Sounds about right lol

I'd like to see the Hi Octane 34 win the day but being a betting man Id be putting my money on the Tomei/Cusco WRX.

I've seen this thing in japan and it did win at Tsukuba last year and Tarzan has had plenty of driving outside of Jappa, so shouldnt get flustered by a goat track.

Will be an interesting couple of days.

Good luck to those competing and heres hoping this is the start of World Time attack tour !

I seriously doubt the other USA teams even got loaded on a boat. I would think they wouldv'e withdrawn from the competition before shipping the cars some weeks ago.

The superlap website doesn't mention anything about withdrawal of the teams, but if you check the entry list in Pro Class, there is only one USA car - i.e. Sierra Sierra Evo.

Perhaps Superlap organisers felt it would hurt their ticket sales or event turnout if they announced any withdrawals??

Having said that, I know in motorsport things don't always work out but would think overseas teams pulled out weeks ago.

I hope not, they can be sued for false advertising :P but who is going to do that when a two day ticket only cost $60? :ninja: Bah that scion sounded like it was made up anyway and the nsx couldn't stand a chance.

But John's 300zx looked like it could play catch...its still going to be an awesome event.

If anyone wants to sling me a few bucks I'll gladly drive your car if it's wet.

I walked the infield when I was there a few weeks back and have worked out where heaps of time can be shaved.

I'm assuming having a navigator in the car is ok? I'll need someone to open the gate.

      Question about BoV on RB25DET NEO

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      It's not as simple as it is being made out to be. It s not hard, but there are things that have to be done. Am busy right now, but will try to essay later.

      Question about BoV on RB25DET NEO

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      Pinout is different to my knowledge, but you should confirm to be sure. Also you will need to adjust the VQ table in Nistune to suit. I would still recommend sticking with recirculating BOVs, I'm not sure if the R35 card MAF will fully resolve stalling caused by reversion/throttle lift.

      Question about BoV on RB25DET NEO

      By Kapr · Posted

      What issues are those? Previous owner said it wants to stall sometimes. We did test drive and it was nice and smooth so it will be sporadic or idk. And if i just change MAF(the sensor to R35 version) it should be better? And as i asked...is it like "plug n play" with oem MAF from R34?  This is a MAF from R35 right?

      Even with no BOV you will have issues unless the MAF is a hot film type like the R35 which has some design features to deal with reversion. Hot wire MAFs are very sensitive.

      Question about BoV on RB25DET NEO

      By Kapr · Posted

      So i just change the (whatever is inside ma original MAF and slide the R34 MAF (it is gonna fit right in? ) and somewhere on the hot side a BoV...i presume that would be vented to the atmo? I just "trying" to understand...maybe my mechanic would know this   I would not mind(even prefer) to run stock BoV cuz it is way more than fine but i do not have that and only pipeing what is left is oem J pipe ... I will be running Blitz fmic(to fit oem one side style) and i gonna need custom pipes cuz i do not have rest of those pipes and hoses... But i am want standalone ECU. Only choice i have atm is Nistune...but that is not gonna cut it right?I dont know what Nistune can and cant do... I know you guys know Link and Haltech...but whatabout ECUmaster? I know guys in here run those but i literally do not know about that and do not know differences... Just know to take whatever "my" tuner can work on.
