Yeh, definitely might need tick boxes instead of radio boxes up there, Im the same as Basti, time, money..etc... but would be interested, want to start getting into it once ive put my new turbo in.

2 other things affecting it for me: my lack of socializing with sau outside of the net makes me feel a little nervous, not that I will be judged or abused or anything, just I have close to 0 mates that are interested in cars, so no one to come with me. 2. I have been to winton once before, but barely knew what I was doing, what happens if your a noob on the track and everyone has to slow down as you go around corners? do u get hailed with stones as they flog past or whats the go?

Dude, just come to a meet, then to DECA. We're a very friendly group and you'll make friends in no time.

Stay the night for DECA and I promise you you'll have about 10 new friends requests on facebook the next day, due to the half dozen embarrassing photos you were tagged in that you don't recall happening.

WYTSKY, generally there are driver training groups, and I highly recommend you do a couple of those before going out and hitting the circuit alone.

As for me, well, won't be until a few years away before I get the balls to go out on the track again >_< Plus I need a half decent car.

Don't you have an EVO or something now?

Bring on all the motorsport!

Ryan. I can offer help for DECA's as usual and maybe a bit more with motorsport stuff if my work commitments aren't too crazy this year.

lol, i might hold you to that :laugh:

all right, i'll try to make the next meet :laugh: provided I can get my new turbo on in time.

Definitely interested, I would love to get my car on the track. The less formal the better, I dont want to race just beat my own times and see how the car holds up.

See if we can get Ash to cook some snags for us again, if he can go. :laugh:

Do I really need to answer this? :laugh:

I would definitly enter an SAU run event at Winton - the only thing stopping me would be 'other' commitments. As long as there is plenty of notice, I'm there!

Sounds like a great idea.

I'm planning on going to more track days this year, funds permitting. Just added a catch can, oil cooler getting fitted atm, trying to make the car as track friendly as possible to get to more of these days.

What's the point of having cars like ours and not being able to drive them to their full potential, and that can only be done at the track!

I wish. Still driving my POS Ford lol. Got other priorities to worry about at the moment which blows.

    • @Murray_Calavera  If I were an expert I wouldn't be in here looking for assistance.  I am extremely computer literate, have above average understanding on how things should be working and how they should tie together.  If I need to go to a professional tuner so be it, but I'd much rather learn and do things myself even if it means looking for some guidance along the way and blowing up a few engines. @GTSBoy  I was hoping it would be as simple as a large vacuum leak somewhere but I'm unable to find anything, all lines seem to be well capped or going where they need to be, and when removed there is vacuum felt on the tube.  It would be odd for the Haltech built in MAP to be faulty, the GTT tune I imported had it enabled from the start, I incorrectly assumed it was reading a signal from the stock MAP, but that doesn't exist.  After running a vacuum hose to the ECU the signal doesn't change more than 0.2 in either direction.   I'll probably upload a video of my settings tomorrow, as it stands I'm able to daily drive, but getting stuttering when giving it gas from idle, so pulling away from lights is a slow process of revving it up and feathering the clutch until its moving, then it will accelerate fine.  It sounds like I need to get to the bottom of the manifold pressure issue, but the ignition timing section is most intimidating to me and will probably let a pro do that part.  Tomorrow I'll try a different vacuum line to T off of, with any luck I selected one that was already bypassed during the DBW swap. @feartherb26  I do have +T in the works but wanted to wait until Spring to start with that swap since this is my good winter AWD vehicle.  When removing the butterfly, did it leave a bunch of holes in the manifold that you needed to plug?  I thought about removing it but assumed it would be a mess.   I notice no difference when capping the vacuum line to it or letting it do its thing.  This whole thing has convinced me to just get a forward facing manifold when the time comes though.
    • Update: tested my spark plugs that are supposed to be 5ohms with a 10% deviation and one gave me a 0 ohms reading and the rest were 3.9ohm<, so one bad and the others on their way out.
    • 9" wheels are a little too wide for a RWD 32. They can fit. People have put R33 GTR wheels on 32s for years and years. But they are a very tight squeeze. This has been known for about 30 years. As I said - there is no difference between a 17 and an 18 in terms of what will fit. The rolling diameter needs to stay about the same as stock - not very much larger. If you increase that, you will start to have problems. If you increae rolling diamater at the same time as yo increase width, you will have problems earlier. as 9" wheels are pushing the boundaries already, you would need to be careful with tyre choice. I would put 8.5s on the front of mine, but would expect problems with 9s.

    • Diagnostic flow for a code 21 says check signal at the ECU pins, on a voltmeter of some kind it should read 0.1V at idle, 0.12V cranking, 0.15-0.25V at 2000 rpm. Check each coil such that +1, -3 is infinite or very high resistance, -3, +2 should do the same. (-1, +3), (+3, -2), (+1, -2), and (-1, +2) should all be somewhere between 0 ohms and high resistance. If you trace the path from the coil pin all the way back to the ECU in the diagram the resistance you measure at the coil vs connected to the harness should be pretty much the same.
