Mugabetown - Whoretownin' At It's Worst.


Recommended Posts

We've been over this before....

ECU isn't compatible. Plenty of servos around. Why bother.

orly?

The reason I ask is because of this

Dalby Ethanol Bio-Refinery under threat of closure. - See more at: http://www.unitedpetroleum.com.au/united/news/news-item/news/2014/02/17/dalby-ethanol-bio-refinery-under-threat-of-closure-#sthash.i1z8FdYx.dpuf

Almost didn't stay up for the race last night. Glad I did :), but boy am I going to pay for it today. Struggle street... :S

Pretty sure I will be going home this arvo to watch it online... I like 4 or the top 5 so I will like the race at least :P

Yeah. And by carrying jerry can problem solved. In fact I can fit 2 of the 20L ones in easily. It was really more of a question of do i stop at every servo along the way or do I take the Jerry can so I can stop less to save time, As I was trying to cram Leyburn and Kawana into one day. My range is limited however, yes, but honestly I don't think that i'll need to go further than a bit of planning will allow at any point in the future.

Part of it is also that i'm still trying to get a handle on the economy of the new Fuel. I was getting 17-18L/100km on the first few tanks but these were city and spirited driving, so max 400km from a tank. From T'bar>Leyburn>home>Logan servo on Saturday I averaged 14.7L/100km which is much better, almost 500km/tank range there.

Once I get the O2 sensors in hopefully it'll be even better again!

I travelled to and from bribie island though so there was some km's involved. I left my house with a full tent got to the BBQ point with half tank, threw in my 20L then drove home and once I got there I had half a tank again. A lot better than I expected really

Guess it's less painful paying $1.25 p/litre

Mitsubishi ASX is a POS but fuel efficient... Just don't try to overtake, or corner at a normal speed on a slightly rough road... Needless to say it was over 10hrs in a boring car on the weekend...

What ecu are you using Pete? Nistune?

How will narrowband O2's help with e85?

Better off removing closed loop IMO and tuning for a targetted afr at cruise ;)

    • Thank you for the feedback bro. Looks like it’ll have to stay off the road till it gets an ecu 
    • Only if you do not You will not be able to drive it with any serious load without risk of it pinging, which will either slowly or rapidly kill it, depending on how bad it is.
    • Hi guys, I’m new to the GTR scene. Picked up an R33 GTR earlier this year that needs a lot of love. I’ve been going through the hot side, changing all the gaskets and while it was all off I managed to score a set of -9s. It still had the stock ceramics so I was pretty happy to get the 2860s.  I live in a small country in the pacific with 0 performance car scene. No dyno’s no performance parts, let alone stock parts for a skyline. I order everything from Australia and do it myself. This means I’ll be running the stock ECU. Maybe down the track I’ll get an aftermarket set up and do a remote tune.  Will the car run -9s on stock tune safely?  I have a very heavy foot so I really hope so 😂   thanks guys   
    • perfect, no rush to address the leaking bush then, it's not doing much/anything
    • I'm not sure if it will bolt up, but.... I'm reasonably sure that the ID of the runners is somewhat smaller on the NAs. So it probably wouldn't be a good match at the flange where the top and bottom meet. So that would be a reason to not do it. And the skinny runners would be the bit you're keeping, which would be a reason to no do it. You'd want the big runners if you were doing any work to swap stuff. Why not just use what you've got, like nearly everyone else who has +T'd an NA? You don't need or want the TCS throttle or other stuff that is specifically DET inlet/crossover.
