Picked up the car this afternoon, flex tune done!

Power feels similar to the recent 98 tune (from my 40min peak hour test drive), but a nice chunk of extra torque has definitely been added with e85.


She's pretty quick and still very happy with the result as the work has transformed the way the car drives :)

Thanks to the crew at Galvsport! (and ASG for the tune!)

Doing some last minute prep for Racewars, ProjectMu HC+ pads dropped in, they pull up bloody well!

Gave the calipers a cleanup, happy with the result :)

Also dropped in the new steering wheel, feels nice and in combination with the recent suspension changes steering feels A1!


The steering wheel did come with a piece that went around the horn, but I think it looks more era appropriate without it.

Drove out to Racewars at 5am Saturday morning, raced all weekend and then drove home... stoked that the car was solid all weekend!

Extremely impressed with the ProjectMu HC+, always felt entirely comfortable in the car pulling with plenty to spare even on the 1000m.


More so the event was incredibly good fun, my only disappointment was not getting myself there on friday for the motokhana!


Few pics from the weekend.

Only minor incident for the weekend was an indicator popping out and shredding the indicator loom... indicator was found & had survived with the advantage of a CAI for the rest of the sunday session! haha

Was quite happy with my standing in the 1000m especially when I compared times, certainly had a ball out there launching the car which probably helped :)

    • I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps  
    • According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car. 
    • It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.
    • 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
