Hey guys and gals!

You all know the drill, the next Texi isnt too far away, Feb 13th to be exact :)

Event: Texikhana, S.O.S.

Location: Nirimba Airfield/Tafe/Skidpan/same place as last time (yeah its got a few names)

Date: 13TH FEB 2011

What is it: Skidpan + Go-to-whoa

Lunch: BBQ and cans of soft drink available on site

Spectators: Free to watch, BBQ will be $4 snag sandwich and $2 cans (selection of flavours available)

Passengers: Free, MUST sign on, wear wrist to neck/ankle clothing with enclosed shoes and approved helmet same as drivers

Courses: Released on the day at sign on

Those of you that have been to one of these before will agree, this is the best money you can spend as far as driving time for an event. The event will be run after run until 430pm, and considering most runs are under 1 minute AND that we're kicking off at 9am, thats a lot of runs ;)

This is a safe event where you only go as hard as you want to, there's no pressure, one car on a course at a time. Perfect for beginners to have a first try at driving their pride and joy off the streets.

With that said, there's usually some friendly competition towards the pointy end of the field from the ACT guys which is great to watch :(

YES the DVD/Photo deal will be on again, same as last time, ask for Eric at sign on and he will sort you out with a DVD full of pics of your car

Scruitineering/sign on ends 830am (dont show up at 825am, come with plenty of time to spare)

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

fkn LOVE texi! :D

Dave, I'm using your car, cbf taking the sub out of mine...

that, or finish building the other one :P

K ill let you destroy the 18's if u pay to get the tyres fitted, going to use my normal tyres for times.. might borrow ur oil cooler as i wont be buying one till after texi, stupid works

Look on google maps for Eastern Road, Quakers Hill.. Its on the Left hand side of the quakers hill parkway in with warawara circuit and such.. Ill find the post in the old thread for you and link that to give you a better idea

edit: Just enter '11 Eastern Road, Quakers Hill 2763' but follow the road up to the end and you will find a car park its hard to miss..

who will lend me their car? :D

*looks at Mark*

? Whats wrong with the 5 ?, if you turn up Im sure you could take me for some skids in my boat, your just not allowed to be timed and show me up, LOL.

Hopefully Just Jap with have got my R34 GTR seats by then so we can do it in non slipping around on the seat comfort, although with the 215s street tyres I dont thing that we are going to get to much G-force action.

Oh, and paid and faxed and stuff, woo hoo.

    • You Gregged a whole racetrack!?
    • Look for broken wire or bad connector at the motor. Might not be it, but is worth starting there, as it is easy.
    • Hi everyone, I’m having an issue with my R32 GT-R. Sometimes, when the car goes over a bump or experiences some vibration, the 4WD warning light comes on the dashboard. When I check the code from the control unit in the trunk, it shows Code 19 – ETS Motor. However, everything seems to be working fine — if I turn off the engine and restart the car, the light goes away and everything functions normally. Has anyone experienced this before? Where should I start troubleshooting this issue? Thanks in advance!
    • I'm back from the dyno - again! I went looking for someone who knew LS's and had a roller dyno, to see how it shaped up compared to everything else and confirm the powerband really is peaking where Mr Mamo says it should. TLDR: The dyno result I got this time definitely had the shape of how it feels on the road and finally 'makes sense'. Also we had a bit more time to play with timing on the dyno, it turns out the common practice in LS is to lower the timing around peak torque and restore it to max after. So given a car was on the dyno and mostly dialled in already, it was time for tweaking. Luis at APS is definitely knowledgable when it came to this and had overlays ready to go and was happy to share. If you map out your cylinder airmass you start seeing graphs that look a LOT like the engine's torque curve. The good thing also is if you map out your timing curve when you're avoiding knock... this curve very much looks like the inverse of the airmass curve. The result? Well it's another 10.7kw/14hp kw from where I drove it in at. Pretty much everywhere, too. As to how much this car actually makes in Hub Dyno numbers, American Dyno numbers, or Mainline dyno numbers, I say I don't know and it's gone up ~25kw since I started tinkering lol. It IS interesting how the shorter ratio gears I have aren't scaled right on this dyno - 6840RPM is 199KMH, not 175KMH. I have also seen other printouts here with cars with less mods at much higher "kmh" for their RPM due Commodores having 3.45's or longer (!) rear diff ratios maxing out 4th gear which is the 1:1 gear on the T56. Does this matter? No, not really. The real answer is go to the strip and see what it traps, but: I guess I should have gone last Sunday...
