This. Power figures for every run down to the tenth of a kilowatt.

big thanks to organizers, met a handful of other guys which is cool, and I will probably go to the next one. between now and then ill have to get back there to a few test and tunes to get the gremlins sorted. I got some footy also ill be uploading to Youtube soon from the day.

Also, thanks to a few guys who pulled up and offered assistance to me when my car started smoking after the 3rd, 4th, and 5th runs. I figured out why it was smoking... I was pushing that much oil up into the catch tank, it was going out the pcv and into the intake.

my fastest run was a 12.8 very early in the day (second run) when I was still learning how to drive it. unfortunately from there it just got slower and slower until I found I had lost 20mph at the big end.. later finding that I had 2 litres of oil in the catch tank, and about 1.5 liters had gone through the engine clogging up the air filter/intercooler/intake/AFM.. messy.. and a Big thanks! to Noel, for lending me tools to help me clean it up so I can drive home, your a champ mate.

cheers,

Hi Dale. I was one of the blokes to talk to you about your car. It was a pleasure to meet you. Hope to see you around at more SAU events soon and maybe with my car too ;)

Thanks mate, time is a killer for me and I'm on call 24/7 which makes it difficult. Definitely keen on attending more driving events, and I hope to see your beast their too.

cheers, D

Well now. Since you attended an official SAU event that automatically gives you an extra 50hp so no need to make any amendments :P

Well, I've been doing that for years, so god knows what I'm making these days!

    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
    • Well they got my money but they are not getting my gearbox ! 
    • It's needed for rolling idle up, and I think it is a decider on VCT also.
    • I mean, not really. Link ECU's can absolutely still have errors from the ECU thinking it's getting a sensor it's not expecting. I would imagine the speed at the ECU level in Nistune does absolutely nothing anyway? I assume the ECU does not do any fancy TC stuff with regards to front+rear wheel speed or anything of that like anyway. Someone who uses Nistune may be more fluent in it.
