I've yet to attand a shenanigans night, but I'm guessing that we don't stand 2 metres from vehicle when its doing continuous 360's... Or do you guys? :)

No but that does raise a good point...

The story was basically laying blame solely at the feet of the drivers for creating a dangerous situation.... I wouldnt have minded some more blame shifted to the crowd who stood so close. I mean in the few times I've been to computer rd / magnesium drive to watch the show, we've always stood on the footpath behind parked cars.... I'd rather the car got a ding then I got squished.

I mean even when the guy was so close to hitting people in the scrotar they had to jump out of the way, as soon as his arse end flicked away from them they all moved in closer again. wtf?

Anyway.

Hrmm... you make a valid point krawler, however I have seen some drivers (much to my dismay line drivers) being a real dick thinking "Oh there is a group of people on the side of the road I'll just do a hand breaky into them, I'll look real cool.. my car wil lstop in time, no worries.." :)

Send in the Army and barricade them in and charge them under new anti-terrorist laws.

Seriously though, wouldn't it be nice of them to establish skidpan parks with low barricades in industrial areas so users could work on their driving skills at their own risk. They spend millions on football fields where many injuries occur, some life threatening (I'm a level 1 Rugby Union referee so see it first hand) and the upkeep would be minimal. Maybe regular attendance by police to provide a presence and opportunity to be engaged by the community, as well as provide comment and feedback to drivers.

In a nation that worships Bathurst, it is un-Australian to expect people to not enjoy their cars and the odd Doughy. Just make it socially acceptable to do it in the right place.

I will pay that Geoff thats a dam good idea!!!!

Give people a time & a place & it will work as the old saying gose

"Build It & They Will Come",

but the only prob there too is people r going to see that it is a way to make money & make ppl pay 4 the act of watching or doing the skids so it starts all over again, most people don't want to pay just to watch others chuck skids or pay too do the skids so yeah catch 22 :Oops:

Amen to that.

I was actually having a looksie at some of the highways heading west... They've put in new highways off to the side, in some cases bypassing a corner or similiar which means there are several lanes worth of bitumen not being used for anything more hardc0re than stopping grass from growing (temporarily)....

I wonder how feasible(sp?) it would be to put the same concrete barriers they use for Indy around and let the hoons do stupid things there? Obviously thanks to public liability etc they couldnt actively condone it, but maybe just stack some barriers and simply not watch it. Or something. I dunno. You can understand them not wanting to build a facility (lots of $$$'s for a minority group who wont win any seats), but why not let us destroy what isnt needed or even being used?

Feh, I guess the last two paragraphs are a very simplistic and naive approach to the matter, but hey :)

Its all owned by the GovCo, and rented / leased to the airport corporation (private company) on a certain number of years contract.

It makes it hard for any upgrades cause its like trying to convince a land son of rajab to let you do it :D Although I seem to recall the contract is like 25 years or something stupid.

i just wanna say yes everyone goes out and does stupid shit the only reason we don't get caught is because we don't go to the same spot i think it was 4 or 6 weeks in a row thats just a sure way to **** yourself..... you can do a skid in the middle of the city and not get caught but do it in the middle of the city on the same corner or road everynight you will get caught...

    • Thanks. We getting some parts along too so he will be solving the speed issue like next week so i will let you know what he came up with.   
    • 21 is explicitly the coils detected as the issue. Is it guaranteed the actual issue? No. Just the ECU thinks it is. When you say rattling, describe it better, get an audio clip as best you can if possible.
    • Yea got me coppers. Bad news is I just put them in and the car still has the light and shakes. I also noticed I hear like rattling coming from the exhaust piping right under me. Does 21 also have a possibility of being O2 sensors?   So, coil packs are good, the harness is good, the MAF is working, and obviously the spark plugs just replaced and working.
    • Make sure you drop the GTT base tune back in, and set your injectors again, this will remove anything playing up with it you may have removed. Possibly lean there as it's normally a fast transient going THROUGH atmospheric pressure, and a turbo motor would then quickly go richer as boost builds. The only worry you MIGHT have is ignition timing, as the DE is higher compression than the DET from memory. But again, you're not in boost, so the DE motor will be a lot more forgiving at atmospheric.   Get Murray, Kinkstahs, and Johnny's input on tuning haltechs, those guys have played with tuning enough in the past to be able to help now you're past the trouble shooting stage of the MAP issue
    • @Rusty NutshI mate. Do you have a pinout diagram for the na neo auto ecu?
