Question: Do you have to be a SAU VIC financial member? (asking for a friend) as on the forms asks about car club, and also will say a ford club be ok? or does it have to be SAU?

Emailed forms, will pay the $85 now also.

another question, when do we find out if we in or didnt make it in the event?

What ya mean? :D if you paid and signed forms by the time the list gets to 50 your in ;), and you get a full day of driving regardless if your going for times or not its not like a knockout or anything like that

WTF is with this 'cheater car' bullshit, im reading it everywhere lately.

Aint jealousy a bitch.

I hear GTRs handle like a boat on the front end on the tight skidpan :s I shall find out soon!.. if so.. nothing a few clutch kicks cant fix aye!

i meant if i did make in the first 50 to make the list..when is any sort of confirmation expected...that what i meant...

Just check the front page. Ryan periodically updates it with new entries as confirmed. Last update was "As of 11/10 1545"

Femno: Sedan vs Wagon, Turbo vs NA, AWD vs RWD... well you get the idea :D

No biggie, but I dont remember buying a GTST?........ :D

Take off front driveshaft, and tell people it's 33 GTST 40th Anniversary.

Look at post #2, if your name is in the entry list means you're in.

Get boat licence while you're at it. Clutch kicks did nothing for me when I did last DECA... Will have to try harder.

When the poor bloke dealing with 100 pages coming out of his fax machine, I'm sure it'll be updated.

Entries officially opened today, reasonable to expect it might take 1-2 days for things to be processed.

Hehe Shane I thought you wrote GTST on your entry form since you were ashamed of driving a cheater car ;)

I wouldn't call it cheating, I'm just using any advantage I can get to make up for my (lack of) ability :D

    • I guess one thing that might be wrong is the manifold pressure.  It is a constant -5.9 and never moves even under 100% throttle and load.  I would expect it to atleast go to 0 correct?  It's doing this with the OEM MAP as well as the ECU vacuum sensor. When trying to tune the base map under load the crosshairs only climb vertically with RPM, but always in the -5.9 column.
    • AHHHH gotchaa, I'll do that once I am home again. I tried doing the harness with the multimeter but it seems the car needed a jump, there was no power when it was in the "ON" position. Not sure if I should use car battery jump starter or if its because the stuff that has been disconnect the car just does send power.
    • As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.  
    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack. 
    • Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
