There's a Lambo entered? o.O damn.. wish my car was ready lol

That's MPC's new Lambo that they will be testing for the GT series.

Sunday is going to cold and wet, there are a fair few entrants. Hopefully the track isn't crowded and hopefully there are no major incidents that delays everything

Forget the delays, I dont mind delays from accos as some other poor bastard is struggling more then me. Oil and breakages are frustrating though....just hope ppl dont bend them as they have a habit of costing the earth to fix :thumbsup:

Shame to read you are expecting crappy weather, was hoping that the GTSt guys would get into the 21-22s

Ahhh, hope it doesn't rain! Not looking too good though.... should of kept my Continentals! Kumho KU36s now, hope they are good in the wet.

If it's really wet I'll be chucking on my KU36's as well.

Sorry to see that you aren't goint to make it Chris but I think there is another Sandown day later in the year.

As for the weather last I heard it was scattered morning showers then fine in the arvo. Personally I'm keeping my fingers crossed as my 55's are well worn and we know what happened the last time that happened :)

im in. its been too long without hitting the track plus i have a ton of terrible lifeless and treadless 55's to get rid of. where else would you do it but Sandown in the wet!?

LOL considering the proximity of walls at Sandown my choice would be PI or Winton for a bit of fun in the wet :verymad:

yes coming along to laugh at the rest of us is encouraged.

just turn up to sandown through the dandy rd entrance. security on gate will ask you who

is running the day, maybe.

park out the back of the pits, with all the other cars.

you can stand up the top of the pits or wonder through.

sweet, gonna come down for a watch tomorrow!

Anyone know the times cars will be running? Also, whats the official name of the event if security gets nosey?

Cheers

Brilliant day guys! Was my first time out with you all and had an absolute blast! Car went well, had the expected level of brake fade and new my clutch pressure plate was dying so when she started going it wasn't a total surprise but managed to run a 1:37.3 in a totally stock r32 gtst, very happy!

Sorry I didn't get to meet more of you I couldn't work out who was who.

Question, I don't remember filling in my sau comp category anywhere? How does that whole comp points thing work?

Cheers!

sorry i could make it out there today. sounds like you all had a good day.

did anyone have any dramas?

heres the timing for those interested :blush:http://www.natsoft.com.au/cgi-bin/results.cgi?27/06/2010.SAN

looking forward to pics!

*edit* just noticed there was a lambo gallardo on the list pushing some pretty quick times. was it race spec or something?

    • I thought that might be the case, thats what I'll start saving for. Thanks for the info 
    • Ps i found the below forum and it seems to be the same scenario Im dealing with. Going to check my ECU coolant temp wire tomorrow    From NICOclub forum: s1 RB25det flooding at start up Thu Apr 11, 2013 7:23 am I am completely lost on this. Car ran perfectly fine when I parked it at the end of the year. I took the engine out and painted the engine bay, and put a fuel cell with an inline walbro 255 instead of the in tank unit I had last year. After reinstalling everything, the engine floods when the fuel pump primes. if i pull the fuel pump fuse it'll start, and as soon as I put the fuse back in it starts running ridiculously rich. I checked the tps voltage, and its fine. Cleaned the maf as it had some dust from sitting on a shelf all winter, fuel pressure is correct while running, but wont fire until there is less than 5psi in the lines. The fuel lines are run correctly. I have found a few threads with the same problem but no actual explanation of what fixed it, the threads just ended. Any help would be appreciated.

I found the problem though. There was a break in one of the ecu coolant temp sensor wires. Once it was repaired it fired right up with no problems. I would have never thought a non working coolant temp sensor would have caused such an issue.
    • Hi sorry late reply I didnt get a chance to take any pics (my mechanics on the other side of the city) but the plugs were fouled from being too rich. I noticed the MAF wasn't genuine, so I replaced it with a genuine green label unit. I also swapped in a different ignitor, but the issue remains. I've narrowed it down a bit now: - If I unplug and reconnect the fuel lines and install fresh spark plugs, the car starts right up and runs perfectly. Took it around the block with no issues - As soon as I shut it off and try to restart, it won't start again - Fuel pressure while cranking is steady around 40 psi, injectors have good spray, return line is clear, and the FPR vacuum is working. It just seems like it's getting flooded after the first start I unplugged coolant sensors to see if its related to ECU flooding but that didnt make a difference. Im thinking its related to this because this issue only started happening after fixing coolant leaks and replacing the bottom part of the stock manifolds coolant pipe. My mechanic took off the inlet to get to get to do these repairs. My mechanics actually just an old mate who's retired now so ill be taking it to a different mechanic who i know has exp with RBs to see if they find anything. If you have any ideas please send em lll give it a try. Ive tried other things like swapping the injectors, fuel rail, different fuel pressure regs, different ignitor, spark plugs, comp test and MAF but the same issue persists.
    • My return flow is custom and puts the return behind the reo, instead of at the bottom. All my core is in the air flow, rather than losing some of it up behind the reo. I realise that the core really acts more as a spiky heatsink than as a constant rate heat exchanger, and that therefore size is important.... but mine fits everything I needed and wanted without having to cut anything, and that's worth something too. And there won't be a hot patch of core up behind the reo after every hit, releasing heat back into the intake air.
    • There is a really fun solution to this problem, buy a Haltech (or ECU of your choice) and put the MAF in the bin.  I'm assuming your going to want more power in future, so you'll need to get the ECU at some stage. I'd put the new MAF money towards the new ECU.
