What a great day today was with an amazing turnout of cars and filling the list to over capacity!

Unfortunately 5 of the cars couldn't be ran at the end due to time constraints(dem R35 are hard to strap down)

Thanks to;

RTR

Motul

All the comitee team

The participants

The renewed/new members

And especially all the people that came along to make the day awesome!

Post some pictuuuuurrres!

Was a cool day. Some hawt cars seen.

+1 post the results, I left after that red r35 went into limp mode because of the clutch temp (sad days) - how much kw did the guess-the-kw 32R pull in the end? :P

Was awesome. Thanks for organising!

If anyone has photos of the black r32 gtst shooting flames pleas post them up! Some guy in a blue jumper got some good photos? :D

paul...he works with me so ill get them soon!

the r32 was very close to that tune + exhaust r35 at 320

amazing numbers for an r32, and i could only imagine how brutal that power delivery would be on the road

+1 for full results

didn't think i was going to beat that big turbo white r35 with my stock turbos and 21s.....kudos to Martin Donnon (Willall Racing) the r35 whisperer

haha sorry a-a-ron, was busy drooling over cars and every time i saw you you seemed busy with all your mc'ing!

313kW, damn, that's near what the red 35 pulled before it conked out isn't it? good shiet.

What an amazing day!

Awesome cars, people and atmosphere! Huge thanks to the SAU team for putting it all together and making it a successful day! Big thanks to Motul Australia, Driver Dynamics, Road Track Rally and Charge Speed for all their support :) A number of highlights from today like the 45kW Hyundai Excel, fire shooting R33 and the R35 Dyno Battle made for good competition. Congratulations to everybody that won and participated :)

Attached are the results, please let me know if you spot any errors.

My photos of the day are all here. :)

Can you remove the number plates column? /paranoid

Thanks

Too late...I've already assembled an odd ball crew of retired and next generation carjackers working unfulfilling jobs. We also have a blonde Angelina Jolie.

Your 32 will be Patricia.

    • I think the concept is highlighting the various scenarios where thicker oil helps, and thicker oil potentially doesn't help and only generates heat and costs power, in turn for safety which isn't actually any safer (unless you're going real hot). If anything this does highlight why throwing Castrol 10w-60 for your track days is always a solid, safe bet. 
    • Jason should have shown a real viscosity vs temp chart. All the grades have very little viscosity difference at full operating temperature.
    • Oops... I meant to include the connector  view... BR/W - power from fuse L/W - motor negative to fan control amp (and off to HVAC pin19) OR/B - PWM signal (from HVAC pin20) B --  ground  
    • Yep, if you are applying filler it sounds like there is something wrong with the body lol. Safe to assume there is going to be a lot of sanding going on if your still applying fillers.  Picture a perfect bare metal panel, smooth as glass. You lay down your primer, it's perfect. (why are you going to sand it?) You lay down the colour and clear, it's perfect. No sanding at all took place and you've got a perfectly finished panel.  You won't be chasing your tail, sounds like you were prepping to start laying filler. If your happy with the body after the sanding, there is some bare metal exposed and some areas with primer, no issues at all, start laying the filler. You are safe to lay filler on bare metal or primer (of course check your technical data sheet as usual for what your filler is happy to adhere to).  This isn't a 100% correct statement. There is primer that is happy to adhere to smooth bare metal. There are fillers that are happy to adhere to smooth bare metal. Just make sure you're using the right materials for the job.  Typically if you are using filler, you would go primer, colour and clear. I've never seen any instances before where someone has laid colour over body filler (maybe this happens, but I haven't seen it before). So your plan sounds pretty normal to me. 
    • I don't think there's any way someone is push starting this car.. I honestly can barely move it, and moving it and steering it is just flat out not possible. I'm sure it is, but needs a bigger man than me. I have a refurbished starter now. The starter man was quite clear and consise showing me how nothing inside a starter really should contribute to slow cranking, and turned out that for the most part... my starter was entirely fine. Still, some of the wear items were replaced and luckily it didn't show any signs of getting too hot, being unfit for use, etc. Which is 'good'. I also noticed the starter definitely sounded different, which is a bit odd considering nothing should have really changed there.... Removed and refit, and we'll pretend one of the manifold bolts didn't fully tighten up and is only "pretty" tight. GM only wants 18ft/lb anyway. I also found a way to properly get my analog wideband reading very slightly leaner than the serial wideband. There's Greg related reasons for this. The serial output is the absolute source of truth, but it is a total asshole to actually stay connected and needs a laptop. The analog input does not, and works with standalone datalogging. Previously the analog input read slightly richer, but if I am aiming at 12.7 I do not want one of the widebands to be saying 12.7 when the source of truth is 13.0. Now the source of truth will be 12.65 and the Analog Wideband will read 12.7. So when I tune to 12.7 it'll be ever so slightly safer. While messing with all of this and idling extensively I can confirm my car seems to restart better while hot now. I did add an old Skyline battery cable between the head and the body though, though now I really realise I should have chosen the frame. Maybe that's a future job. The internet would have you believe that this is caused by bad grounds. In finding out where my grounds actually were I found out the engine bay battery post actually goes to the engine, as well as a seperate one (from the post) to the body of the car. So now there's a third one making the Grounding Triangle which is now a thing. I also from extensive idling have this graph. Temperature (°C) Voltage (V) 85 1.59 80 1.74 75 1.94 70 2.1 65 2.33 60 2.56 55 2.78 50 2.98 45 3.23 40 3.51 35 3.75 30 4.00   Plotted it looks like this. Which is actually... pretty linear? I have not actually put the formula into HPTuners. I will have to re-engage brain and/or re-engage the people who wanted more data to magically do it for me. Tune should be good for the 30th!
