Pretty sure you have Long and I wrong in the results... I was running as 41 and he was running as 42. We stuffed up the numbers but stayed consistent. I was the one that WD'd the last session

So you two are simply in each others spot? If so, credit to Josh, you beat Thai.

well im happy :cool:

almost broke the 50s barrier on the long wang :ermm: no way

Pretty happy with my result :banana:

Now to try stay in the top 10 next deca!

:woot: So happy with the results!! Wooh!

You three did awesome. Jake.. you need a co-driver. Jett, you need a turbo car ;) Maaaark. 7th is damn good in your boat.

ps. in theory - i beat you all. Again.

Consistently fast times mate. You would have had another 90 points if you could remember where to go. Reality trumps theory though ;)

Bloody happy with my mega mini and long wang times! Next time I'm rolling on rims that aren't worth quite so much and have a bit more side wall :D

Whats this mean for the s13?

Pretty happy with 22nd in the ute! Beat lots of Evo's, skylines and silvia's haha Did ok considering it's like 550kg heavier than the car I normally drive round at Deca lol. So much harder to change directions!

More importantly you won the burnout comp at the end!

Haha and a trip to Ford for some warranty work lol

Me - "Why are you scrubbing the rubber out of your guards?"

*watches Russ make a 5cm pile of rubber chunks on the ground*

Russ - "Warranty claim"

Me - "Yeah good luck with that"

P/S pump is growling at me. Something to do with 2nd gear RL lock to lock haha.

Last time I was 'getting rid' of some old tyres and the power steering pulley wheel snapped off. Got it towed to ford with the belts hanging out of the rear tyres and I picked it up the next day all fixed :) No bill :)

Have you had any issues with your diff Russ? A mate is currently having his fourth fitted (FG XR6T Manual Ute)

What's the issue with his? Is it lowered? I've got a humming noise between 105 and 110. No problem above or below. It's done it since I lowered it. I've just ignored it.

    • After my last update, I went ahead with cleaning and restoring the entire fuel system. This included removing the tank and cleaning it with the Beyond Balistics solution, power washing it multiple times, drying it thoroughly, rinsing with IPA, drying again with heat gun and compressed air. Also, cleaning out the lines, fuel rail, and replacing the fuel pump with an OEM-style one. During the cleaning process, I replaced several hoses - including the breather hose on the fuel tank, which turned out to be the cause of the earlier fuel leak. This is what the old fuel filter looked like: Fuel tank before cleaning: Dirty Fuel Tank.mp4   Fuel tank after cleaning (some staining remains): Clean Fuel Tank.mp4 Both the OEM 270cc and new DeatschWerks 550cc injectors were cleaned professionally by a shop. Before reassembling everything, I tested the fuel flow by running the pump output into a container at the fuel filter location - flow looked good. I then fitted the new fuel filter and reassembled the rest of the system. Fuel Flow Test.mp4 Test 1 - 550cc injectors Ran the new fuel pump with its supplied diagonal strainer (different from OEM’s flat strainer) and my 550cc injectors using the same resized-injector map I had successfully used before. At first, it idled roughly and stalled when I applied throttle. Checked the spark plugs and found that they were fouled with carbon (likely from the earlier overly rich running when the injectors were clogged). After cleaning the plugs, the car started fine. However, it would only idle for 30–60 seconds before stalling, and while driving it would feel like a “fuel cut” after a few seconds - though it wouldn’t fully stall. Test 2 – Strainer swap Suspecting the diagonal strainer might not be reaching the tank bottom, I swapped it for the original flat strainer and filled the tank with ~45L of fuel. The issue persisted exactly the same. Test 3 – OEM injectors To eliminate tuning variables, I reinstalled the OEM 270cc injectors and reverted to the original map. Cleaned the spark plugs again just in-case. The stalling and “fuel cut” still remained.   At this stage, I suspect an intermittent power or connection fault at the fuel pump hanger, caused during the cleaning process. This has led me to look into getting Frenchy’s fuel hanger and replacing the unit entirely. TL;DR: Cleaned and restored the fuel system (tank, lines, rail, pump). Tested 550cc injectors with the same resized-injector map as before, but the car stalls at idle and experiences what feels like “fuel cut” after a few seconds of driving. Swapped back to OEM injectors with original map to rule out tuning, but the issue persists. Now suspecting an intermittent power or connection fault at the fuel pump hanger, possibly cause by the cleaning process.  
    • For race cars, this is one part where I find having the roll cage bar having gone through a hole in the floor better than the build it up on a ledge inside... The Merc I help on, the main hoop ends are marked on the car, and the jack is marked... Jack goes under a few inches and lifts one whole side of the car up... Removes that fight for long slim jacks for race car duties!   My biggest issue for the daily drivers I work on, is my jacks don't go high enough. The jacks start out on a few blocks, jack it up, then start a second jack under it on more blocks, and then I can get an axle stand under it. My axle stands are presently in use, and are nearly fully extended. The car is sitting with barely more than a cm of clearance to get the wheel off the studs! Sarah's Kluger is the same, as it has an ungodly amount of droop available in the suspension and a distinct lack of good jacking points!
    • Happy? Yep, my to do list is getting shorter and shorter. Either this light approaching is the end of the tunnel, or I'm about to be hit by a train... Ha ha ha   Also, Duncan isn't that far out of town that you need to make a multi day drive out of it. 😛
    • Sorry I meant that we are building the EH for a client.
