Going Wakefield 14th September, you come. We'll see who shreds a gearbox 1st.

Eh, I'm all about roll racing now ....

a lot easier on the car than drag/circuit, don't have the money or willingness to break things like you do lol

 

 

My car is full of cheap non-NASA spec parts, hence can afford to push it right up to the limits and over too.

I'm sure I'm over speeding that Garrett non-NASA spec turbo, oh wells ?

Got behind the wheel of the Don Mega S15 at Roll Racing

Scooted down the track for 5 passes then had to head off to work

Still getting a feel for the car as it's spinning tyres and I'm sliding around...

I definitely got the soundtrack right on this puppy!!!!

Must have got the danger to gearbox warning light.

What I find hilarious is that, everyones prediction was I'd blow the box....and funnily enough, the box is still absolutely great.  

I think my cognisance relating to mechanical sympathy does play a part in the fact NOTHING on my cars goes wrong.

Meanwhile, everyone else is blowing 6 speeds and throwing rocker arms, I'm calling it that more "they don't know how to drive".

Good to see you got out there. 

Mechanical sympathy and not shocking the gearbox will definitely help longevity. If torque/ignition curve isn't too aggressive that will help.

Apart from killing a Nismo twin plate in bumper to bumper traffic with stock turbos?

Clutch slip will protect a gear box so history checks out!

    • If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.
    • Lock me in mate, although I'm not sure if I'll be heading up from Goulburn or down from Sydney, either way, return will be back to Goulburn 
    • Sounds good, we will aim to be there! @The Bogan I'll give you a shout if you are heading up to campbelltown for the meet too.
    • Before I get to the test day, just to finish off the android head unit. This is a demo from car start up....the standard/host system takes a few seconds to boot (same as all v37) but Android comes up quickly. In this vid I'm using the delivered launcher but have set the default to Agami since which is easier to navigate when if use primarily 5 apps. You can see the host system still takes over when required eg putting it in reverse, and you can switch between Android and not by holding the back button 3 sec. It is pretty responsive (fast) but you can see I had to press harder than expected a couple of times.  I still have the phone connected to the stock system, and that also seamlessly takes over Android music playing. v37-android-demo.mp4 The bigger reason that I put this in though is so that I can use Ecutek directly on the head unit. That gives me a dash with logging (up to 20MB only), high and low value warnings on any parameter etc etc. I've run a USB cable from the Ecutek OBD dongle to a USB input on the unit, easy. v37-ecutek-demo.mp4   The unit did freeze on the launcher the other day, I think Agami was trying to verify the license when it didn't have a data connection...will monitor and report back if there are any other problems but so far I'm very happy with the upgrade.
    • Nah that is just crappy GPS mapping, I did have a small excursion (cold tyres, damp track, surprise!), will post up that when I get a chance.
