Hey everyone, some mates and I went to the Lake Grace farm on easter weekend and did some skids on a salt lake, also on a track we'd made in the bush paddock.

Since this is the first time I've posted these videos on SAU, here are the first two:

This one takes place last Anzac day. Some good footage of jumping the Excel (RIP), some rotor [dirt] drift. Also introduced to the civic-ute which is one of the only cars still running now.

Second movie, quite recent. Labour day weekend. There are a couple new additions here, a couple of 4L falcons. Also took out a Datsun, unfortunately this sheared its halfshafts shortly after arriving so there isn't any footage of it. Also a barina makes its way out there. I take a lot of dusty videos and my camera lens is now screwed. Oh this movie also has an old RWD Celica and the Excel burial.

And here is the new video:

Latest video, from the Easter weekend just gone. Some more drifting, and the salt lake was very muddy this time (as opposed to dusty and dry). Features Civ-ute, Celica, Falcon, Failcon and Christians Patrol.

ok enough rambling. Had some positive reviews from these videos, so enjoy!

both our falcons are autos

:D

just picked up a RB30 r31, that is our newest addition :)

currently in process of stripping, welding up a sidepipe, reinforcing the front, welding on braces and that sorta stuff.

Haha looks like great fun, i wish i lived close to those salt lakes :)

Just be careful driving in the bush if you are cutting off the exhausts, starting bush fires isn't cool

Yep we try to keep the cars that blow flames to have exhausts pointing upwards :) (rotor...)

We also have an actual firetruck we take out to the track during summer months. We've been well versed in fire safety :D

So far, yet to start a fire or roll a car.

Lol nice, sounds like you have it well under control.

haha, I'm leaving his comments there, I personally think they are hilarious.

Also if anyone has some good ideas for what to do to a r31 (rb30) to get it ready for bush bashing, let me know :ermm:

we are already looking at dodging up some turbo in the future for it, but for the time being we want to give it a little bit more power (exhaust, intake, anything else?), and reinforce the front end a bit, and possibly raise it up an inch or so

    • Brooooo Please send ABS control unit schematic Please! R33 gts25t ABS (Its two plug ecu, black and white) wire colors possible? [email protected]
    • Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.
    • Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler
    • Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?
