Haha if it makes you feel any better John, I don't have any GoPro footage to rub it in! But I'm sure the other guys can make up for it ;)

Actually I do! Damn GoPro battery died as I rounded the final corner on my next best lap (1:52.1504 vs 1:52.1412 so close enough!). A 51 seems so close...

That last corner entry, pegged to the floor!

Hehe yeah full throttle from the exit of turn 10 basically. I think the extra camber helped in that regard (~3 front, 2.5 rear)

  • 2 weeks later...

Finally had a chance to sit down and see what i got from the weekend.

PB on Sunday! happy with that.

Saturday was ment to be a bit of fun in the Stagea that ended up not as fun.

Got a couple of laps in before radiator couldn't handle the heat.

After having to take cameras and loggers of the windscreen only ended up with one vid, lucky it catches the radiator pop.

Have any of you guys driven to and from Winton on E85? With current economy I'm budgeting bringing a full tank of E85 and just over 100L spare to race around on and get me home... shit ain't economical!

Get a trailer then...

Not worth it to drive that distance burning up E85, and if you have semi slicks it's even worse.

Yeah I wouldn't risk it. You'd need 5+ Jerry's just to make sure you'd be able to race all day and get home. I don't know how'd you'd fit them in a car with whatever else you need to bring.

Safer just to trailer it.

You're not trying hard enough! Plenty of room in a prius, should be a easy as in a skyline!

That said, the shitty economy does make it a pain in the arse for the long haul. According to the website there isn't a united beyond Somerton with E85.

The middle section section is a typical wheel well but only the 2 with labels are standard height cans.

The 2 yellow and outer red ones are all low profile cans like this which make life a lot easier. Can still fit these in the boot with the floor liner in place and not using the wheel well:

I can fit 80 litres in the boot of the 33, and a further 50 litres in the foot wells behind the front seats. I can definitely carry enough, it's just trying to work out how much I'll need SAFELY, I'm thinking I'll need about 120 Litres to make it safely.

Mehhhhh, I think I'll just not put the passenger seat back in my car... plenty of room for activities :) Because nothing screams safely like heading towards Winton at 110km/h with 120L of fuel in the cabin

    • There's restrictor pills in the stock boost control hoses. That's how they set the amount that was bled off and hence the "high" boost setting. The usual mod in the day was to remove it and send the "high" boost setting up to about 14 psi.
    • Thanks Duncan, that's the best info I've read. Furthermore after learning about the PCM programming side controlling the factory boost solenoid, the purpose of the solenoid is to "bleed" boost when pin 25 is earthed, thus allowing spring pressure in the wastegate actuator to overcome diaphragm boost pressure, thus closing or reducing the position of the wastegate flap creating more boost as the turbo is able to spin faster. It's pretty cool to see a designated Pill to do exactly this, would have liked to have seen it with a tiny filter over the end for those moments in vacuum.  The constant bleed pill has now been removed completely from the system and solenoid boost control has been restored once again.   Case closed 😂
    • The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.
    • Manual boost controllers (where a little of the boost was bled off) were quite common back in the day, because they were cheap and easy. Generally they had a manual adjustment screw rather than being fixed like yours. Down side is they always bleed boost, not just when you want them to so an electronic boost controller that uses a solenoid will have less lag.
    • Hello , im new here and i have A31 home build  RB25det neo stock eng / turbo  aem ems 2 blue connector  aem 3.5 map aem cas disk aem wideband connected to ecu  355 lph pump 550 nismo yellow injectors side feed aftermarket regulator  and won’t start with base aem tuner basic tune eventually flipped cas 180 degree so it triggers on correct stroke not in exhaust cycle  Now it won’t start Wideband reads 10 and 11 at lowest fuel setting  and will share calibrations soon for aem tuner i think something is wrong in aem tuner    please if you have any information, am very grateful
