Great meeting you guys. John thanks for your help with tyre pressures, have my head around it all now and can see the huge difference it makes if you dont get it right.

I ended up with a 1:24.5 in that last session with a bit a traffic so pretty bloody happy with that! Can't wait to see what this thing will do with a bit more experience and some fresh tyres.

Will chuck up a vid.

No times on natsoft?

Nah was untimed today. I am just going off my VBox GPS and getting the poor missus to sit and time me on the iphone as I go past. She was pretty good - GPS had 24.48... and I am gonna take those extra two hundredths hehe.

The VBox software rocks! Even tries to work out what track you have been at and auto sets start/finish and sectors. Heres a vid. Will need to try Johns advice and carry a bit more speed through the back straight kink - man he caught me quickly through there. I think it might have been the same lap cos I looked in the rear view when he was behind me.

Great day, though a little traffic on track. Good to see everyone out there.

I too got my fastest time in the last session. 1.25.6

Fastest car on the day....240z with racespace RB26 on -7 with front and rear diffuses on AO50's. 1.18.x. I was going flat out ~200kmh down the main straight, he rocketed right by me.

Paul I think that video is the first lap you passed me, I was right up behind you the lap after as the red porka bunched us up a turn 4. My tires had gone off and I was going to go into the pit, but saw you behind and thought it better to have a little fun whistling.gif

I turned into dandy road at the end with not grip at all, four wheel sideways action.

Fastest Lap

    • bumping this post as im still having dramas, my fuel pick up is sitting on the bottom of the tank, my pump gets a constant 13 volts through a relay, my fuel pressure holds consistently without fluttering or dropping, yet as soon as im near half a tank of fuel my car starts fuel starving and leaning out, it cant be due to g force as it never pulls hard enough before it starts breaking up, any help would be much appreciated 
    • Just a thought, was that car and auto at any point of its life? If so, maybe whoever bridged the inhibitor switch/circuit did a not so good job.
    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
