LOL who threw up?

Haha what you mean i thought breatho .2something was not bad.. next time aim for .3 eh?

Did you have fun "counting the tattoos" hahaha

Mark was dreaming about throwing up monday morning then had a midsleep dash for the toilet. he made it to the sink atleast. later on when vince took him to the station he was throwing up again and vince followed probly monkey see monkey doo. lol

also you guys are pricks i would have given that thing a good reading, although i was legless, i'm pretty sure i drank more the night before.

If i have counted correctly this Deca was the 20th SauVic Deca so far. Hard to believe..

Anyway, big thank you to all our volunteers and helpers:

Bec, David, Marcus, Anna, Beth, David, Robert, Crossy, Rob, Dave, Russell, Davidson, Al, Martin, Kieran, Tony, Luke and Timmeh. I hope i have named everyone.. These guys are the ones who took down your times, picked up your cones and helped set up and pack up each event as quickly as we could to maximise track time. If we did not have these people volunteer their time deca would not go ahead.

Also thanks to Mick from Micolour for sponsoring the event, letting me drive the gtr and for flat spotting tyres in the 180 :)

i think i have a video of that, i definetly saw the 180 slide into the gates in the morning on the skidpan. Also i'm glad i helped out, i'd do it again if i wasn't driving. can't wait to walk again.

All your runs are so smooth!

It doesn't even seem like your pushing the car all that hard, but you still manage awesome times.

Wish I got some in car vids of my runs, its just me launching hard, trying not to spin out on the basketball court and bouncing off the limiter. Maybe I should take deep breath and take things more easily.

thanks dude ! now there is a video on youtube with a crippled, im getting laughed at from people i know who want to laugh at the cripple!

LOL I could tell, you seemed to be making good use of your good leg to drag yourself around instead of using the hand wheels!

You gotta remember...for Deca...clean and straight = fast...sideways = fun but slow...

haha yeah, I think i'll take the next deca seriously and bring my proper tyres to deca for the first time. All the deca's ive been to have been with cheap stockies haha

cant wait for the next one.... already pinned the times off work for the next 3 lol!

such a lighthearted and enjoyable form of motorsport... and the skidpan was soooo freindly on my new nitto's :)

also, i woke up on sun morning on the floor with the mattress on top of me.... WTF!

Haha another event goes by where I don't meet you Pat...make it happen next time! Screw good tyres, buy a set of 595's just for DECA events :)

haha sounds like a date <3

Will need to sort out my rear guards as I reckon ill scrub when throwing the car around with the 255's ~_~

    • Old Son, did you re-use the Holden ABS in the new shell or try a different module?
    • Yeah, nah. I had the actuator rod off it today. The arm will not move at all. Neither out, nor in. Yeah, you'd think so, but I've been thinking about that. Even when the actuator rod fell all the way off at the beginning of this saga, it would build more boost and faster in lower gears than it would in higher gears, and you'd think that that was the opposite of what should happen. But I strongly suspect that there is a thing with the gearing getting the revs to rise faster, that there must be some transient effect with the gas flow rate rising quickly, that you don't get with the more steady state case of the higher gears. Keep in mind - the gate is not shut in either of my weirdnesses. So things are not "normal". We normally think about a turbo spooling up (below the wastegate target) with the gate shut. I have all sorts of mental models running now where the gate is a little bit open, and having it stuck open allowing gas out while it should be going through the turbine has all sorts of weird effects (in these mental models). I'm thinking in the higher gears, the ex mani pressure builds to the point where enough gases spill out the wastegate to just prevent the pressure rising much more at all, or just creeping up, all the whole the revs are increasing and getting closer to the point where a gear shift becomes necessary.
    • Is it possibly wastegate actuator itself is sticking, or even the rod to flapper? Otherwise I reckon things are getting a bit rusty/worn   Also odd it won't boost in 3rd to 5th, but will in 1st, I'd expect the other way around with it slightly open as there's more time on your way to redline for it to spin up
    • Does anyone know ow what these two plugs are for and if they should be unplugged? Just put the dash back together and can't remember if these were plugged in before or unplugged! (Blue and white plugs) 🤦🏽‍♂️
    • Did some FASTing ...got the impression that the actual part# was a moot point ; seems all of these hardlines for coolant are discontinued/NLA... like, I take it you're after the hardline that bolts onto to the manifold...that's NLA according to amayama & nengun .... ...just to clear up some confusion, they typically mounted the AAC valve to the intake manifold somewhere near a coolant passage, so the body of the valve heats up & holds it open when engine's up to temp - no coolant flows through the valve, it's a mechanical, thermal connection.
