Erm... Actually you'll find more cars are written off at a club level drag racing than circuit racing...

got proof or stats to back that up Marie? If not.......

shut up Marie :P

Been thinking about this ECU BS! I'm gonna call Haltech tomorrow to see if they have recieved it from EFI / Sean. I'm preying it will be there...........cause if not........ well I think I will fkn explode of ape shitnness!

If they spoke with you today, it could still be in transit.

Well from Drag days (Street cars) I've been at, it's been 2 from 2 crashing.

Been to many many many more circuit days, and only seen 3 cars crash at the circuit. 2 of those involved proper race cars, not street driven ones.

That tells me enough :P

But not 100% stats, but from what I've seen even watching our own motor sport section from guys club level racing with street cars. More damage drag racing, whether it be into walls, or things assploding and destroying panels.

I'm the reverse. I've seen more people crash at circuit level than at drags. And I've been to many many many many many many drag days including even private ones with my old boss.

Having said that I've only seen a handful of circuit days but unfortunately each one I went to cars were mega banged up!

Note to self, don't go to a circuit day that Ants attends. That way my car won't crash

stay away from open flames unless you want to pretend to be from harry potter

I survived YAYYYY!!!! I wasn't even game to open the oven, then I went oh hey that finger has no nail polish on it, taste tested the mashed potato and wanted to die because I had spilled nail polish remover on that finger also BLERH!!!!

Sup all?

Got to drive Zane's car to the mall, it's like a special treat when he hands me the keys I must have been well behaved yay! :laugh:

Did you drug him? You totally drugged him, hence why you have his keys...

Yeah, was just thinking the same... Maybe this is why his tuner has kept his car? So he can't take it to track days and make others crash...

could be. I seem to have VERY positive influence on others :P

I have an ecu you can use too if needed. Hopfully a quick firmware update and you are good.

Welcome officially to the modified gtr club. You only get in after your first heartbreaking build!

so, im part of the club?

thanks.

You sent an ECU to Heltech? Oh god I hope they aren't as bad as they used to be. I know a couple of people (club members) who sent gear to Haltech for repairs/trouble shooting. Their response? "We don't support that model ECU anymore." and then they drilled a hole right through it. These were previous model ECU's as well, not some ancient rubbish but stuff maybe a year out of date.

I think he has spoken to them about the drilling issue and they said if they receive it they won't drill it...

    • Power steering is probably because someone has nuked the HICAS CU and you no longer have the variable power asist doing what it is supposed to. How much boost are you running? You are aware that any more than 10 psi on the stock ECU is just asking for it to go to full R&R (that's Rich & Retard, which is effectively Retarded and Retarded!) which kills all the power. Depending on the exact conditions, it can just be runnign on the fat and stupid end of the maps, then the conditions change, you make a little more boost and the ECU goes into panic.
    • @BuiltNotBought Just as GTSboy said.   If you want driveabilty and more low down torque..keep the stock runners. They are VERY good from a factory. I have them too on my RB25DET NEO and as a GTSboy i have fmic but with stock piping route(i have Blitz intercooler) Iam making around 320 BHP and the car pulls "hard" from like 2,5k all the way to 7k. I have it dyno tuned to mimic N/A power curve and making little less max torque due to the smallbox tranny. But driveability is very great. I had 350Nm below 3k so car feels very quick.
    • Looking to sort out a couple of issues on my skyline  It recently was rebuilt, however rebuilder long story short did not give two flying effs about the work he did. So moving forward it's running but I have two persistent issues 1) it has a misfire / lag type of issue (was at higher RPMs but I had a dead piggy back ecu removed which improved it) now it's not as bad but still does it at random, I thought it may have been a boost issue I'm running an older turbosmart dual stage controller, turbosmart told me to try running off gate pressure however it still has a lag at random times. It has New MAF, maf plug, coil packs, sparks, CP harness.. injectors tested and cleaned. Factory ECU. 2) Power steering issue. It is tight as anything. Flushed power steering, rebuilt my pump because the bearing was shot. Flushed again still tight (mainly when parking and going slow into my driveway etc)  No kinks in hard lines, replaced the lines I could see had cracks. Still tough to steer.  I was told to shim a coin and place into the solenoid plug? Is there anything else. My steering angle sensor also has a issue. It's a used one I replaced, does it need to be calibrated? I feel like I've tried everything and this car is my voodoo doll.   
    • Holy shit... wow!!! I totally missed this
    • One main filter. Each tank has a prefilter to keep rocks and small children out, then the big main filter that also does water separation. Clogged the first one so bad it was like a rev limiter at 3200rpm. Literally just like dropping the throttle off and maintaining rpm!
