It was way too low! Scraping the leading edge the whole way around the track.

We modded and lifted it 15mm or so. Just scraps a little under big load.

I went out without the splitter in the first session. Cold, fresh tyres. Did a high 1.35 on the last lap (6). I'd say with that setup it would be a mid 1.34 I'd say. The splitter is amazing under brakes and on loaded turn in. There is much more time in it.

The fastest lap was terrible. With the setup as is, 1.32 no worries.

Still getting used to this no ABS thing. Plus added aero mods.

Video to come. But the fastest lap was well into the session, generally fastest lap is first or second hot lap.

Did i miss it in the thread.....why no ABS? Is it because your still running the non-ABS diff.....or you just decided to go no ABS from now on?

Man its crazy to see all the cars/changes that have happened over the past 3 or so years summed up in a few pages!

Nice work with the win at WInton!

Cheers,

Dave

nice feature!

good to see the test day went well, do did you notice much difference with the splitter off with the front bar all sealed up? or does it need work in conjunction with the splitter?

Diff is still in pieces, still using brothers non ABS housing diff.

Can't say I felt a difference.

MAD for taking away the ABS ! :)

I read in a jap magazine that the AD08R are the same compound as the AO50...differences are tread compound and the changes required to allow for smaller tread blocks. So should be pretty close to AO50 if setup right

mmm, not sure about that. It's a similar compound, it's not the same. They tyre doesn't go into a marshmallow state once warm like the 50's do.

Mate, 10/10 for effort and commitment!

Couldn't believe it when I read 'then this happened'... for the 2nd time and then you tagged the wall again! But hats off to ya and clearly paying off.

Car is looking pretty good and getting very serious. Get as much power out of that donk as you can as it makes a big difference at EC as you know!

Good luck at WTAC :)

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
