yeah mate, it was and by a long way, about 1 sec :D I guess the new track is quicker and those tyres are great.

sid....put your bloody name in your profile or I will call you speedwhore for ever!

Almost certainly just a bad batch of fuel, even so I would get yavuz to take a little timing out of the midrange for safety. Octane booster does very little....each bottle is 0.1 of an octane rating, so 1 bottle in a tank of 98 only gives you 98.1.....

But i dont know HOW TO :(.... WILL SOMEONE THINK OF THE CHILDREN!!!!!! :P, Although duncan you love my name you know it, you think im cool loll

Sid dont get too worried about the pfc knock, it doesnt mean the motor is dead at all, get yavuz to have a play with it or come for a drive to the central coast and ill go for a run with you on the freeway and fix it up for you, 5th gear is very high load on the engine thats why it knocks in that gear only, you wouldbe better off tuning it with NO octane booster at all, so run the tank 2 or 3 times with no booster and change the plugs before you get your touch up tune.

a pfc knock of 50 and above is normally close to real knock, but this depends on the condition of the knock sensors.

Buy it, it's always worth it.

IMHO they did not win, apart from the obvious, a rotary was not placed first, and I have no idea about the final official point standing. However during interclub competitions (at the club level, ie SAU or RENEWE only) a scoring method similar to below is often used.

Based on the best times of everybody, last place gets 1 point, 2nd last gets 2 points, 3rd last gets 3 points etc.

RENEW = 390 points

SAUNSW = 645 points

I'm a management accountant, just tell me what you want the numbers to say and I'll make them say it :P

yeah i realise this i was just sh1t stirring the fact there fastest club member was a piston powered car considering its a rotory forum? :nyaanyaa:

1, evo 2, gtr 3, gtr 4, rx7 5, rx7, yeah i'm gonna say the gtrs have it over the rx7s this round.

as for the car classes, i would be interested to see how the classes are set and why my full street R34 GTR is in the same class as duncans race R32 GTR? if F means not involved then someone needs to change my class as i have said right from the start i wanted to put of the comp,

Hi folks. Thanks for respecting Nick's instructions on discussing "THE INCIDENT".

For those that know or don't I've posted my whole story to date in this thread.

I know I've had a lot of people PM'ing me about it so I wanted to make sure I could provide as much of the facts as possible to folks. If you want to discuss it please keep your posts in that other thread and keep it positive folks. Even though I'm still a bit emotional over the event, I know the only way out to NORTH is to stay true, optimistic and open to opportunities.

For those that also wonder 'bout my shoulder - hurt like a mo-f this morn, but has gotten better as the day wore on today.

or maybe hunting the silvia spurred you on ;)

That Silvia was FAST, never seen one that could travel fast in a stright line before. Kudos to the pilot. It must of had some serious mods, handeled very well and pulled on the straights better then my GTR.

Relax dude it'll be sweet. We will manually assign the classes and match them up with round times and announce the points. If I need to I'll contact individual owners to see where exactly their car fits if there is any doubt. I'm not sure what happened with the timing people assigning class but we'll try to get it sorted for next time.

Having timing at SAU days now is a big bonus, friendly competition with another club, all good.

dnissi is fast as it has Unique Auto Sports stickers, he he. He is a good driver and well set up car.

XKLABA time to get sorted and go faster?

    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2  
    • Thank you so much for the help
    • Yes it is ATF. I quote @Duncan "it takes a good synthentic auto trans fluid like Castrol Transmax Z" It's not a diff. It's a transfer case. Totally different thing. Yes, fluid will come out the sender hole. No you do not really need to drain it. Just pull the old, quickly poke the new, clean up and top up. But realistically, you should probably take the opportunity to change it anyway.
