waker's short course started on an access road off the main straight into a series of S bends then onto the back straight through some witches hats then right into the main straight again chicaning through some witches hats then into a tightening right hander (which claimed a number of cars including one very unlucky BMW!!!), back across the start line, through the S bends, along the back straight again and then stopping in the "garage" just before the right onto the main straight...a pretty sweet run!

Thanks franks.

great weekend

at least this time there is no pete fell of the balcony story just the kel fell on the floor naked story

please tell kell!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Oi boys - i thought we agreed that what goes on tour stays on tour!!!!

(Petie, you're just jealous because I didn't invite you to fall naked on the floor with me) :wassup:

Well, first up thanks for all the support from the club and forums, there was a great turn up on Sunday, not to mention the hard core drinkers who made it along all weekend (not that they made any events on saturday morning after a big friday night tho!)

Full results are not up yet, but we certainly didn't make the top 10 this year.  Simmo on the other hand did, coming first outright in the EVO 8, top effort against some top notch competition :)

Highlights of the weekend score-wise went to Dan who landed a 4th place in his first shot at the Button Rally, after a top run in the wet figure 8 at EC.  Also a huge effort by Pete to pedal a very recalcitrant R31 around Eastern Creek track in 1.53 on very poor street tyres.  Kel was kicking my arse all weekend in the motorkhana stages, although she did require a quick underwear change after a big off on the Sutton Road hillclimb!

Pete also landed 3rd co-driver in  a hard fought class of 3, and got a trophy.  Since there were 4 drivers in class A I missed out :)

Yep- Like he said- thanks to everyone who made it possible for us to run this weekend!

thank you very much dan!!!  

idliketo thank the rest of the pit crew members and those who helped get us all vershnickered during the weekend!

    • 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.
