I get the feeling I may be able to sell my turbos to nick when I eventually do upgrade...

Like hell if it ever got a snail it'd be something f**king huge, like the size of your head huge. You don't buy a v8 to spool dawrf snails

You should feel special mate. I see you the most out of anyone in the car club and thats cause we tend to be the only ones attending/entering in larger scale track days

He is a very special individual.

Don't other guys like Mcfly, Mooncad also attend to track days?

Big call. Depends on what you call larger scale I guess...

Oh I feel special :wub:

... And yes because we have the balls to line people up ;)

Happy laps and powercruise are NOT track days :glare:

Thank you. Someone else sees some sense in this. Hence why I said that it was a big call especially considering that the likes of McFly, Grego, Cadman, Sutty etc run proper sprints.

Is it during day time: yes

Is it on a track: yes

I will agree that happy laps is not a "track day", but don't drag events like powercruise through the mud. It is the upper pinnacle of what it is, and a win there basically puts you one of the fastest usable cars in the state.

Winning/placing at events at "Powercruise" is the be all end all as far as I'm concerned...

I didnt drag them through the mud, if that appeals to you best of luck to you. But the long and short of it is that a track day is, to most people you will talk to around the car scene, an event where you run timed laps of a circuit, so no matter where you place powercruise on your list of priorities it aint a track day, and for example if you were to tell people you do a lot of track days you would get a lot of 'WTFbullshit' and 'whattimedidyourun' looks

Only if you consider a world outside drag racing, which apparently these guys don't

Powercruise can EAD.

Powercruise can EAD.

McFly, telling it how it is.

I can see the merit in powercruise for those inclined that way but I wouldn't call it a track day. Nick, come to the QR sprints :yes:

I NEVER CALLED IT A f**kING TRACK DAY!!!! :rant:

Spoken like a true narrow minded "purist", have u ever been to one?

I have, it took me a few years to recover, and almost made me part my car and burn the rest just to make sure I was never associated that god awful cesspit of bogans.

    • I thought that might be the case, thats what I'll start saving for. Thanks for the info 
    • Ps i found the below forum and it seems to be the same scenario Im dealing with. Going to check my ECU coolant temp wire tomorrow    From NICOclub forum: s1 RB25det flooding at start up Thu Apr 11, 2013 7:23 am I am completely lost on this. Car ran perfectly fine when I parked it at the end of the year. I took the engine out and painted the engine bay, and put a fuel cell with an inline walbro 255 instead of the in tank unit I had last year. After reinstalling everything, the engine floods when the fuel pump primes. if i pull the fuel pump fuse it'll start, and as soon as I put the fuse back in it starts running ridiculously rich. I checked the tps voltage, and its fine. Cleaned the maf as it had some dust from sitting on a shelf all winter, fuel pressure is correct while running, but wont fire until there is less than 5psi in the lines. The fuel lines are run correctly. I have found a few threads with the same problem but no actual explanation of what fixed it, the threads just ended. Any help would be appreciated.

I found the problem though. There was a break in one of the ecu coolant temp sensor wires. Once it was repaired it fired right up with no problems. I would have never thought a non working coolant temp sensor would have caused such an issue.
    • Hi sorry late reply I didnt get a chance to take any pics (my mechanics on the other side of the city) but the plugs were fouled from being too rich. I noticed the MAF wasn't genuine, so I replaced it with a genuine green label unit. I also swapped in a different ignitor, but the issue remains. I've narrowed it down a bit now: - If I unplug and reconnect the fuel lines and install fresh spark plugs, the car starts right up and runs perfectly. Took it around the block with no issues - As soon as I shut it off and try to restart, it won't start again - Fuel pressure while cranking is steady around 40 psi, injectors have good spray, return line is clear, and the FPR vacuum is working. It just seems like it's getting flooded after the first start I unplugged coolant sensors to see if its related to ECU flooding but that didnt make a difference. Im thinking its related to this because this issue only started happening after fixing coolant leaks and replacing the bottom part of the stock manifolds coolant pipe. My mechanic took off the inlet to get to get to do these repairs. My mechanics actually just an old mate who's retired now so ill be taking it to a different mechanic who i know has exp with RBs to see if they find anything. If you have any ideas please send em lll give it a try. Ive tried other things like swapping the injectors, fuel rail, different fuel pressure regs, different ignitor, spark plugs, comp test and MAF but the same issue persists.
    • My return flow is custom and puts the return behind the reo, instead of at the bottom. All my core is in the air flow, rather than losing some of it up behind the reo. I realise that the core really acts more as a spiky heatsink than as a constant rate heat exchanger, and that therefore size is important.... but mine fits everything I needed and wanted without having to cut anything, and that's worth something too. And there won't be a hot patch of core up behind the reo after every hit, releasing heat back into the intake air.
    • There is a really fun solution to this problem, buy a Haltech (or ECU of your choice) and put the MAF in the bin.  I'm assuming your going to want more power in future, so you'll need to get the ECU at some stage. I'd put the new MAF money towards the new ECU.
