Explains why they're trying to kill off the 12 hour.

Typical suprecrap form, kill off all forms of motorsport other than their own sh!t show.

re the GTR, there was an article a month or so back, where heads of Nissan pretty much said that they have no interest in cheapening the GTR's image, by having it race in this category.

Completely agree with them to, Its currently running across the globe against supercars, and having it in this series against commodores would be a huge step backwards for it image wise.

+1.

Good to hear that.

Didn't know they were against the 12 hour?

V8 Supercars? Definitely are. They are against anything competing with them and have done everything they can to stop any form of motorsport thats not part of their show.

Its why next year they have the Eastern Creek test, scheduled on the same day as the 12hour weekend, and due to contracts with Supercars, drivers like Rick Kelly must be at the test, and now cannot drive in the 12hr.

The fact that they're moving to a multi car type / engine grid now makes sense why they're doing this, as it will compete directly with the 12hour, will just be for cheaper cars and shitterer (yes its a word :) )

Does that mean no more live streaming of the 12hr? Sounds like if you want to watch any motorsport, you'll have to get pay TV if V8's have their say.

It'll be streamed and channel 7 will be broadcasting the whole event on 7mate for 2015. Cool eh?

      Question about BoV on RB25DET NEO

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      It's not as simple as it is being made out to be. It s not hard, but there are things that have to be done. Am busy right now, but will try to essay later.

      Pinout is different to my knowledge, but you should confirm to be sure. Also you will need to adjust the VQ table in Nistune to suit. I would still recommend sticking with recirculating BOVs, I'm not sure if the R35 card MAF will fully resolve stalling caused by reversion/throttle lift.

      What issues are those? Previous owner said it wants to stall sometimes. We did test drive and it was nice and smooth so it will be sporadic or idk. And if i just change MAF(the sensor to R35 version) it should be better? And as i asked...is it like "plug n play" with oem MAF from R34?  This is a MAF from R35 right?

      Even with no BOV you will have issues unless the MAF is a hot film type like the R35 which has some design features to deal with reversion. Hot wire MAFs are very sensitive.

      So i just change the (whatever is inside ma original MAF and slide the R34 MAF (it is gonna fit right in? ) and somewhere on the hot side a BoV...i presume that would be vented to the atmo? I just "trying" to understand...maybe my mechanic would know this   I would not mind(even prefer) to run stock BoV cuz it is way more than fine but i do not have that and only pipeing what is left is oem J pipe ... I will be running Blitz fmic(to fit oem one side style) and i gonna need custom pipes cuz i do not have rest of those pipes and hoses... But i am want standalone ECU. Only choice i have atm is Nistune...but that is not gonna cut it right?I dont know what Nistune can and cant do... I know you guys know Link and Haltech...but whatabout ECUmaster? I know guys in here run those but i literally do not know about that and do not know differences... Just know to take whatever "my" tuner can work on.
