The mrs got some vids of turn 12/13 on to the main straight. If only every day was a track day.

Spoke to you at Sandown on the 13th of October definately have

a nice R32 GTR there , the GT3 Porsche could just not keep up with you .

G'day good chatting. Hopefully catch you at the track in your own 32 soon!

Cheers - yeah the second time I got out which the second vid is from it stopped raining and the track started to dry out towards the end, times started to drop. Still wasn't enough to get a feel for how it will behave in the corners and under heavy braking but I will get there.

Got my eye on a Winton test n tune on Friday...

Hit Winton today - much better than Sunday, satisfied now.

Car held together well, have a few suspension changes I would like to make to start firming it up as the suspension is still very much Tarmac Rally orientated.

R32 ABS is also really annoying on the track, time for it to be deleted.

Best for the day was a 1:35.5 which I am very happy with for its first real outing.

Everyone loves the flames... but not sure I will enjoy having to clean this off each outing though... bring on E85

very nice driving Paul.

So pleased to see it's going well on the track.

I'm taking mine to QR next weekend :)

Yeah ABS is a pain on the track.

You must be spitting some pretty nasty flames to BBQ that rest lol

Really nice car - identical to mine except for the stripped interior, awesome paint work, exceptional cage, and a million other things. Although you need to beat this flamage for true glory! :yes:

needs to be a bigger pic size man!

Ha the boys were explaining it in similar dimensions so I may be able come close.

I saw your 32 years back in ashburton. Jealousy levels were high - you still get it out to the track ?

not for a couple of years, my wife opened a can of whoop ass when our third baby was born so it was back to racing bikes with all the other MAMILs. I will never sell it though, its awesome as you would appreciate with your beast. I'll sneak a track day here and there I hope.

Vid from Sandown yesterday, best for the day was a 1:20.4.

ABS unit still causing issues with the brakes, spongy / inconsistent so on a mission to remove that shortly along with some suspension tweaks to try clean up the braking. Also a bit of ducting for the radiator needed - yesterday after about 3 harder laps it would hit 100c water and 120c oil and sat there, add some ducting to force a bit of air through and I reckon it will be a very nice solution.

A bit of a brain fart at turn 11 deciding which gear to use and so still chasing that elusive Sandown teen, one more session would have been nice but a guy smashed his porsche. Should be an '18 in it with me driving after a few tweaks. Regardless this 32 is a whole lot of fun to drive :)

    • Ok guys thank you very much. GCG highflow it is then 🙂 
    • forgot to mention that when it does this it does not kill the engine, but I have not kept the pedal down long enough to let it, as I see no reason to beat up on it as its got to be something simple, small and dumb causing this.  And as soon as I let off pedal, the engine returns to its normal super smooth operation and rpms re-stabilize quickly, once below 4k. 
    • neither stumble or cut really seem to be an appropriate term....hard to explain its like a rev limiter but at 4k, but it violently shakes engine and entire vehicle as the rpms will not rise over 4k, even with slow acceleration. as soon as it hits 4k, it sounds like entire spark is lost entirely. plugs were 1.1 which I used as such, but later put in new plugs gapped down to .8 changed back after issue arose when I replaced the coils, still does it with either plug gap...damn and it was all running so good.
    • Oh how times have changed! I actually lean it out relative to my water/methanol injector duty cycle. The methanol adds a lot of fueling and you can then lean it out even more due to reduced knock. 
    • Yeah my thoughts are the same, a well thought out WMI setup, would be slightly ahead of just straight E85 and you're also chemically intercooling the charged air, dropping it even further. This is why you need to add so much more fuel as soon as you spray. I remember someone taking me through their set up before (Dennis, has a R33, lives around Cabramatta - no idea if he's still around on this forum). He would target AFR 10:1 on 98, then as WMI ramped on, AFR would lean back up to 11:1. Amazingly, he did this all through his PowerFC, a relay to cut power to his EBC solenoid if there was not enough line pressure on his WMI kit. And of course, if there wasn't any boost made above gate pressure, you wouldn't be accessing the load cells with heaps of timing for WMI. One downside to that rudimentary setup, once the WMI came on, the EBC would unleash the dragon, and of course all the timing. Tyres would fry lol.
