So is my browser playing tricks on me or have the results not been posted?

I was looking forward to seeing how much I flogged all you Datsuns by. :touch:

speaking of Datsuns, i've been a little disappointed the last two DECA's with the amount of modern cars entered...

SAUVIC needs a serious injection of pre-1980 machinery :D

What are you bringing to the table Rob?

Interesting that none of my times were the fastest. Again it seems consistency and driving at 9/10's is the key to bagging points.

I'll have to make it in november to hold on to the championship!

Thanks Ryan for doing a top job with the results and to Mat for driving my car so well!

Well done guys! Faulless (from what I saw) run from Adam was very impressive, and Russ and Ryan was super smooth as always. Special mention to Matt though, killer effort in a car that's not your own!

I'll be back at the next one to try and redeem myself for the terrible performance put in this time around...

Have to agree with that...it's the little mistakes from going 100% that make for big losses in times. I had a mini-wang cone hit (5 second penalty) in the stopping gate, which is a massive time loss on the mini wang. Cost me 17 positions/points...

Thats very shit that the points I acquired this time round dont count toward the championship.

After all, its the driver that gets the points, not the car. Bit of a kick in the pants to go with the blown engine.

Thanks Russ and Dane, it was good fun driving something different! Russell your car is a weapon...I guess, go RB20 Powah...

Thats exactly why i like stop gates...it forces people to time their braking correctly or risk hitting the cone...anyone can floor it through a flying finish...but it takes practice to stop quickly and accurately in a gate...

    • Sounds like you've got an interesting adventure ahead here with local support if you have trouble! My guess is that, unboosted, you will be OK with a small upgrade like -9. What will happen is that once the stock ECU sees more airflow than it expects it will add a heap of fuel and pull a heap of timing to be safe because it can't understand how it could get that much air without there being an issue. You will see clouds of black smoke and it won't pull hard through the midrange and top end. So, overall it will be a bit frustrating but should be OK. If you are still nervous set the base timing back 2o through the CAS, but it will be even more sluggish everywhere. As said above through...this is not my guarantee your engine won't be blown into a million pieces, leaving you looking for very hard to find parts A better idea is get a computer with logging ASAP, wire in a wide band O2 sensor and a use remote tuner. I've done multiple cars this way and while it is not as good as a specific tune on a dyno they can get it 90% right. I'd suggest if you can afford an R33 GTR these days you can afford an ECU and tune. And if you can't afford that you sure won't be able to afford the rebuild if it goes bad in the meantime,.  
    • Yeah it would be nice if someone took the time to put that sort of information together, but there are a lot of variations in looms. I think you are making this way hard for yourself if you just want to get it running....sourcing an SR20 with the right wiring will be a billion times easier than matching the RB loom to an S15 chassis. If you do end up going this way, you just need to trace every wire in the loom with a multimeter, 95% of them will go to a location you can confirm at the ECU.....and then post it up for the next person who needs it  
    • Just top it up with water, and keep a general idea of how much you added. It is normal for water to be pushed into and pulled out of the reservoir through the cap, and it should not be more than half full or it will be likely to overflow when hot. Any decent mechanic can do a pressure test of the cooling system to confirm if you have a leak. Keep in mind if it is only leaking a little and when hot it may well evaporate before you see it hit the ground
    • I'd ask the shop what they used and use that. Mixing coolants is sometimes OK, sometimes not, and you have know the details of each coolant to know whether it's a good idea or not.
    • Is it alright to top up with just another green coolant?
