nice videos - looked like you pulled up short of the nuts :) Had to lol a little when you turned the wheel well after it was all locked up though! hehe

I've got to say I think you should be in the Modified Road Registered class rather than the Production Road Reg class. Car looks modified to me! Good to see more Jap turbo cars turning up out there :)

The good, bad and the ugly.... Ran today out at QR, Very wet. Ran the National circuit car was great, just took it easy, getting a feel for the car and the fact semis in the wet. Oil temp max at 9

Turning the wheel You can only but try/hope.... :whistling:

Cars pretty much stock....Build to production sports car CAMs specs.... Stock ecu, turbo, inlet, outlet manifold, stock brakes, motor.... Only real mods is the camber arms and coil overs, cage so I have a fighting chance if I go over on my lid. I don't care what class I was in, just turned up for fun. It will be a once a year thing for me. Could be worse, look at the AC cobra.... Built DJR race motor, hoilenger gear box, nissan diff.... Running in MK sports....

I can see your perspective, but it isn't CAMS Production Sports Car racing, it's a class MGCCQ made to give near stock road cars a class to race in away from the stripped-out, caged-up race cars they were previously luimped in with. Cars are supposed to comply with QLD Transport rules and must have a cat. Minimal mods allowed in Prod Road Reg, basically exhaust, springs and shocks. Any more than that and it's in Modified Road Reg. At least that's the way they explained it to me before I entered. When I was getting close to the record I had officials checking if I had a pod filter or intercooler!

Was entered as Mk Sports..... people complained, It's listed under CAMs as a sports car, but not under FIA.

Then they enter me as 4 wheel drive Forced induction..... My car is 2 wheel drive

Then Mod production car.... Someone complained because I was not entered in the series and would muck up there points... Plus it's a sports car not a production car.....

All the other R33s GTST where entered in the Inv cars class, the other drivers where o.k. with it be cause my car was pretty much stock other than the cage which weights 80 plus kg.... Pretty much about the same as a interior of the car. Still got electric windows and mirrors, on road tires.....I just wanted to have a some fun....... Which I did....

But it's motor sport...Every ones got a opinion.....Whinny bottoms are going to Whinny bottom..... ;)

      Strange issue RB25DET wont start

      By jtha7 · Posted

      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.

      Freddy Plenum vs Genuine options RB25

      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.
