Yesterday the nissans on the new fuel smashed qualifying. Today they are back to their usual mid pack results and the Kelly boys were comparable on times. Maybe there was something in the claims of performance from the new fuel. Have to wait and see how they go in the race. But I certainly find it a bit suss....

yeah agreed....although they went to the trouble yesterday to point out they were still 1-2% down on top speed compared to the falcodores yesterday (a lot on a small track). But that doesn't mean there wasn't a gain in the midrange somewhere.



ultimately supercars is a parity formula, so there will be adjustments to different cars at times. And the cars that get the adjustments will be happy, and the ones that don't will have a sook

lame dancer is lame.

BTW they were 5th and 8th again this afternoon until about 3 laps to go (they didn't pit for tyres and lost a few spots to the cars that did). So the speed poorer today, but not by an order of magnitude

Since when does E70 make more power than E85? It is an economy argument, not a power argument. The data traces showed no gain anyway. Aside from that the rest of the teams signed off on it so what are they whinging about?

Anyway was nice seeing Moffat junior taking the piss out of his choked up old man on the tv on Sunday.

Good on them for

A: Winning

B: Hosing the Kelly's.

Yeah the traces didn't show much, but they were both from quali laps, which doesn't show as much of the story as the race data. But if the economy was better then they could've gotten gains from running less fuel at the start of the lap.

      R32 GTST - 600KW+ RB28/CD009 Build

      By TurboTapin · Posted

      Well, my new WMI system took much longer to finalize. I actually missed my dyno appointment last Friday and lost my 150$ deposit. I'll be going back in the next week or two.  To sum it up. I only kept the AEM tank from my old setup. I replaced the AEM pump with a higher flow/pressure ProMeth 30GPH pump. I also swapped over to a 6AN low pressure feed line to the pump from the tank. There's also a pressure switch you cannot see on the pump high pressure line.    This is feeding 6x 200CC direct port nozzles and 1x 500CC Pre Throttle body nozzle. All fittings are Swagelok, because well why not. I also have a 300PSI pressure sensor up front.    I now have my Haltech ECU controlling everything. I start my pump with a basic relay at 5PSI and deadhead it. I then PWM a 3000CC methanol Injector to control flow starting around 10psi. The pressure switch in the trunk, along with my tank level are safeties before I ever get to 10PSI, and then I use my pressure sensor upfront as a secondary safety to cut the WMI and corrections in case the injector blocks or a line ruptures.  Wish me luck on the dyno!

      Jacks that fit under GTR lips that can reach the subframe?

      By TurboTapin · Posted

      So, I'm back with bad news. There's no jack long enough on this planet that will reach the front subframe. If by some chance there is, it would weigh 200lb's.  I purchased a long reach jack... The damn thing weighted 120lb's and was massive. Didn't even come close, was still short at least a foot. It was a pain, but I brought it back. Next I decided HA! No problem, I'll get an Extra long reach jack. Well, I couldn't lift the box... It must have weighed 160LB's and luckily there was an open box in store. I took measurement and was still nowhere close.  Sadly I've lost hope and have accepted defeat.

      J50 clock date suddenly reset to January 1

      By suko · Posted

      Thanks for that tip, niZmO_Man. I think the battery is OK. It's quite a new one, but I'll check. Last time I needed a new battery, everything electronic was fine, except that there wasn't enough current to turn over the starter. I decided to order one of the partial AV system translation CDs from Car Audio Workshop in NZ. That might have some effect, or help me diagnose the date problem. 🤞

      I suppose it was relatively stock too, the JZ motor handle most mods thrown at them without even breaking a sweat

      Starter motor replacment teeth count.

      By MBS206 · Posted

      I saw your intro update, are you sure you've actually had a starter motor failure? You mention it could be the alarm causing it. I'm assuming you've got a no start issue, but what are the exact symptoms, as there could be a few reasons it has stopped wanting to start.
