Goddamn, some fit looking 32's out there!

not sure about all these watermarks though, some are right across the middle of the screen and ruin the image completely. I prefer what this guy did, actually used the track signage to throw his name up, looks a lot more professional, the car is completely visible and if you didnt know your pixels would even swear it wasn't photoshopped!

was pretty happy with that. Think its my only shot from EC too.

onwards with a few other randoms..

Thanks to Kory/7Tune for this one :)

True mate. The photographic quality that follows the event is fantastic. All the official pics without watermarks are an extra $400 (from memory)

Yeah that's why pretty much all of my Targa pics have watermarks - always been too tight to fork out the $400 on pics! :)

Here's some others of my car(s) I've found laying around.

And a good one of the last girl before the suspension was sorted!

3rd pic is my all time favorite - taken on the back track at DECA Shepparton.

Last pic answers the question I was often asked earlier this year.

"How did you go from being so "average" at Wrest Point to on the money at Targa Tas?"

Answer - I fixed the suspension! (Because otherwise it was the same damn car.)

I have a good one or two from that exact same spot at DECA in the white R34... 2007 Dutton was it?

That is a bloody exciting little track to drive at max attack! :)

I've always wondered..... what does the number plate signify?

I've always wondered..... what does the number plate signify?

You are so uncultured :)

It's the name of the dragon out of Tolkien's novel "The Hobbit" - because the old girl was also a fire breathing, money hoarding monster. :)

Have to see what i can find on my work laptop and photobucket

1st, My old 32gtst at the Oran Park Skidpan

Funnily, all my photos seem to be at OP, when most of my circuit driving is at Wakefield....

    • 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.
    • In my head it does make sense to be a fuel problem since that is what I touched when cleaning the system. When I was testing with the fuel pressure gauge, the pressure was constantly 2.5 bar with the FPR vacuum removed. When stalling, the pressure was going up to 3.0 bar (which is how it should be on ignition).
    • ECUtalk pages don't mention they support the ABS computer (consult port has more than one CAN), so you might just need a different scan tool. But, I would expect ABS is a different light to the brake warning/handbrake light, do you see an ABS light come on for a few seconds when you turn the key from ACC to IGN? But since you said: I'd have a look at the ABS sensors in the rear hubs to make sure they are not damaged, disconnected etc.
