evening all, 
 
having so much fun lately modifying the water/meth setup in my ute and fixing the crankcase breathing issues. 
 
1- first hill on the way to work, if i hit it at 100 in 5th i would slow to 70 in 4th. now im able  to do 90 in 5th
2- next hill i used to hit at 100 and slow to 80 in 5th. now i can accelerate to 120 in 5th
3- final big hill i used to hit at 110 and fall to 72 in 4th. now i can maintain 100 in 5th or 120 in 4th
still so much more refining and testing to do. tomorrow i have better pyros hooked up for more accurate temp readings.

Show us your ute!

im gonna take a stab in the dark and say about 144km, give or take 300metres

300m sounds good to me. Flat chat on a BMX! Puffing and panting like a dog in a hot car!

    • Hopefully you can just unbolt them, thank them for their service, then bin them and not replace them Apparently the sensors like to set them off with only minor impacts at low speed It looks like they do a delete kit for some of these, but, it is costly 
    • I hope it's actually possible. This is a write off in insurance world.
    • Yup. 2-way with shallow ramp angles. Still works.
    • That was the first session so not a lot to take from the day. It was low 20s ambient and the coolant had got to 110 (and obviously had some pressure!) so that still needs to be addressed. I haven't downloaded the data yet but will. I had refilled the auto trans with Redline DT6 because it claimed the best viscosity I could find at 100o. It wasn't really long enough to get a good feel for that; while the trans got to 100o in the session it still wasn't shifting crisply as I hoped. I think I'll try a few more sessions before judging. No steering motor overheat but I'd hope not in only 1 session! But finally the suspension; it was night and day over the standard stuff and the car was a couple of seconds quicker on the same crappy tyres, which is a huge difference. I'll stick with that and get some sway bars and a mechanical diff sorted too and see how that all goes together
    • I guess it’s partially a compromise of how my car is used, wanting to be able to switch from drift to grip with track side on-car adjustment. Also partially with the way the knuckles are set there is more static camber but less dynamic camber gain.
