Nice work Russell & Ryan!

Hoped I would do better than 20th but that's a big improvement over 26th last time. I need to work on my wangs :(

List of excuses:

-Tyres scrubbing guards on every turn :(

-Fat passenger :banana:

-I'm a pussy with my daily driver :P

Damn, I thought I'd do a lot better than that. Those WD (and spinning out) really kill you!

Goes to show thought that you can do quite well without a huge amount of power. I managed better than decent times here and there, just lack the conistency! Guess that comes with driving skill and experience.

You're right about being more aggressive though, on my last mini wang run I went all out and managed a good time, and I know I wasn't at the car limits - just mine. :banana:

Yep, unless you got issues with your car it's almost all driver for these events. Agree totally, it's cool that with these results you can see where you did really well and know that if you were consistent in doing that everytime then you'd do much better overall.

595s are shit.

Go Hankook S1 EVOs or Conti SportContactIIs or the Kumhos Russell runs. 245s are plenty too.

RE001's are in the same area and price range as well for another option.

When i picked mine up they were the same price as the EVO's actually.

I think that's changed now though

Thanks but if "NA challenge" means normally aspirated the Lancer doesnt fit that bill.

it's basically an rb18det but is in the 2WD class for sure specifically FWD :thumbsup: understeer come on down.

go Russman! and also well done to the Clive in the Lancer for taking out the highly contested "NA challenge"..

How the hell did you fit a 6 cylinder in there?

ROFL, maybe I should have said rb1.8det, 6 cyl I wish

Hmmm thinks 6 cyl hmmm

I wonder (thinks some more)

hey Juliette I got this idea about how to promote the FWD chances at the next DECA

I thinking 6cyl twin turbo, whatcha think?

    • Thanks Dose.....    I appreciate it!!
    • I'll probably be putting the shit box back on the dyno again soon, I want to dial in the closed loop boost control properly. I'll have a camera facing the car/motor for fun too. Just note, there are essentially 3x 10AN inlets going into the catch can and 1x going back to the intake pipe. Most of the time the catch can "return" to the sump actually is the crank case breather, pushing air out.
    • I have the R3C with a Nismo slave and by no means does it behave like a stocker, it ain’t THAT bad. On take off just give a bit more throttle than you would say a coppermix and it’s fine. It will not slip though.   
    • Okay. Final round of testing done. Got a friend to hook up a fancy scanner to the car and we also ran some compression and leakdown tests, she is healthy.  The MAF was definitely the culprit. So for future reference anyone with similar issues that find this thread. I suggest the following steps, in order of affordability:   Check your spark plugs for any fouling, replace plugs if they are bad or re adjust the gaps making it narrower (0.8mm would be good). Check every coil's resistance with a multimeter. It can be done by probing the IB and G pins on the coil pack. Resistance should be around 1.4 (+/- 0.1) Ohms Check the MAF. If you have Nissan connect or a good scanner with the 14 adapter it should allow you to see the voltage on the MAF reading should be around 1.1 - 1.2V when car is idling. But if you don't, buy a new MAF from Amazon and test, then return it. (For instance, I got a Chinese one for $40 that was reporting 1.3v on idle). If you still have scanner, you can run tests on the injectors to see if they are working, just remember to unplug the fuel pump fuse/relay and have no pressure on the line. Then listen for the noises that the injectors make. Clean/replace injectors as needed. Once you find the issue and fix, order thousands of dollars worth of OEM parts to refresh unrelated things (Optional)   PS: Thanks to the absolute legends of this forum for the responses and help to someone that went a bit over their head.
