I'm abit confused about the "Cars must be considered 'Roadworthy'" section.

My car has no leaks/drips, has all panels, seatbelts and fully working lights and the essentials but it's not legal in the performance parts aspect (Too low, too loud, wheels etc...)

May seem like a dumb question but roadworthy condition is a lot different to trackworthy condition..

ok so

no belts showing on tyres

no lose panels

nothing loose in engine bay, inside cabin in boot

seat belts/harnesses correctly mounted

fire ext mounted correctly and under 5 years validity

helmet has asa or equiv rating

all good

loud pipes not care

wheels not buckled all good

looking to have some fun......perfect

Guys as mentioned we are not staying at the motel this time round.

Bec has reserved 15 or so cabins at the caravan park but you need to book yourself ASAP :yes:

If people dont start booking there accomodation the park wont hold the cabins.

Use the above link to get details on the accomodation.

cheers..

Make sure all your wheel nuts are there unlike some other chaser drivers! :ninja:

My AASA expires day before the event...any renew forms need to be filled out or just bring down 50 bucks on the day to renew?

You've got plenty of time to update this with AASA prior to the event and you'll make my life 10 times easier if you do!!!!

I'll even give you the link to the form you have to fill out and send back to AASA with payment :)

Hi. im thingking of entering. it will be my first time to do a motorkhana.

Can you explain what it is exactly. How many courses are there? what are the courses ?

thanks frank

hey frank,

http://sau.ferni.net...eb2012Sched.pdf

thats the event we did in feb

basically there is skidpan/motorkharna event and also some sprints out the back, point A to point B.

skidpan consists of 2 layouts where you have to go around cones a certain way, you get 2 goes at each layout

sprints also consist of 2 layouts, basically you just have to start from point A and get to point B as quick as you can

end of the day we do battles on the skidpan, the skidpan is split in 2 and 2 cars race around a pre determined layout

its a really fun day, everyone is super friendly

Just sent off my forms and paid.

AASA renewal in progress, since mine expires 2 days before the event! Jason, you and I must have gotten ours at the same time just before the August 2011 DECA.

Yeah the Wet DECA was balls... All over the place and it was more luck than anything else when I was out there :P

There's a section in here of the wet skid pan, I had good tyres and wasn't pushing hard at all, still spun out heaps... No fun.

Dry on the other hand... is a lot more fun :D

The main thing is, when it's dry there is consistent grip. When it's wet, the grip changes with every meter of the track.

See you guys up there :)

Do you mean sign up to the event or sign up as member? If you wish to enter you need to send in an entry form. You do not need to be a member to enter deca.

The more the merrier people, bring friends along. For those who know Deca, we will be ruining the mega mini Wang again. Not sure how many times we are going to be able to run it as the surface is getting tired...

      Strange issue RB25DET wont start

      By jtha7 · Posted

      Ps i found the below forum and it seems to be the same scenario Im dealing with. Going to check my ECU coolant temp wire tomorrow    From NICOclub forum: s1 RB25det flooding at start up Thu Apr 11, 2013 7:23 am I am completely lost on this. Car ran perfectly fine when I parked it at the end of the year. I took the engine out and painted the engine bay, and put a fuel cell with an inline walbro 255 instead of the in tank unit I had last year. After reinstalling everything, the engine floods when the fuel pump primes. if i pull the fuel pump fuse it'll start, and as soon as I put the fuse back in it starts running ridiculously rich. I checked the tps voltage, and its fine. Cleaned the maf as it had some dust from sitting on a shelf all winter, fuel pressure is correct while running, but wont fire until there is less than 5psi in the lines. The fuel lines are run correctly. I have found a few threads with the same problem but no actual explanation of what fixed it, the threads just ended. Any help would be appreciated.

I found the problem though. There was a break in one of the ecu coolant temp sensor wires. Once it was repaired it fired right up with no problems. I would have never thought a non working coolant temp sensor would have caused such an issue.

      Strange issue RB25DET wont start

      Hi sorry late reply I didnt get a chance to take any pics (my mechanics on the other side of the city) but the plugs were fouled from being too rich. I noticed the MAF wasn't genuine, so I replaced it with a genuine green label unit. I also swapped in a different ignitor, but the issue remains. I've narrowed it down a bit now: - If I unplug and reconnect the fuel lines and install fresh spark plugs, the car starts right up and runs perfectly. Took it around the block with no issues - As soon as I shut it off and try to restart, it won't start again - Fuel pressure while cranking is steady around 40 psi, injectors have good spray, return line is clear, and the FPR vacuum is working. It just seems like it's getting flooded after the first start I unplugged coolant sensors to see if its related to ECU flooding but that didnt make a difference. Im thinking its related to this because this issue only started happening after fixing coolant leaks and replacing the bottom part of the stock manifolds coolant pipe. My mechanic took off the inlet to get to get to do these repairs. My mechanics actually just an old mate who's retired now so ill be taking it to a different mechanic who i know has exp with RBs to see if they find anything. If you have any ideas please send em lll give it a try. Ive tried other things like swapping the injectors, fuel rail, different fuel pressure regs, different ignitor, spark plugs, comp test and MAF but the same issue persists.

      Freddy Plenum vs Genuine options RB25

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      My return flow is custom and puts the return behind the reo, instead of at the bottom. All my core is in the air flow, rather than losing some of it up behind the reo. I realise that the core really acts more as a spiky heatsink than as a constant rate heat exchanger, and that therefore size is important.... but mine fits everything I needed and wanted without having to cut anything, and that's worth something too. And there won't be a hot patch of core up behind the reo after every hit, releasing heat back into the intake air.

      There is a really fun solution to this problem, buy a Haltech (or ECU of your choice) and put the MAF in the bin.  I'm assuming your going to want more power in future, so you'll need to get the ECU at some stage. I'd put the new MAF money towards the new ECU.
