Well im pumped to get back to the track now. I did a comfortable 1:38.2 on the weekend at Winton, whilst being held up by a F430 which i ended up overtakign around the outside. Only had two laps as part of the event...so cant wait to get back there now. Need to bang out a few good times whilst BBGTR is off the road and Ferni is waiting for his new wheels :) I am hoping to get to PI this weekend to give this new suspension a real work over. With any luck i will get into the 1:49s

Amazing, a mod that actually works sure does increase enthusiasm to get back out there :)

AAARRRGGGHHHH, the wait is killing me. Troy, was also looking forward to the MSCA day this weekend but alas it is not to be.

Just don't bin it going for a 220 kmh entry into turn one......

LOL...good point, but im more worried about the entry onto the straight. So keen to get back out there, I really dont know what to expect from the car. I seem to recall you have been punting around on the Bilsteins as well. I hope you like your new suspension as much as i like mine....its so much easier to drive now :).

Anything change to pull a second out of your lap time...or was it just more seat time?

Better tyres (Dunlop D02 Semi's), bigger balls/stupidity under brakes.

I got down to a 1:01.64 today, I'll be interested to see what I can do when i have the diff repaired.

    • I’m here solo don’t have any hands to help so haven’t hit it with a timing light 
    • When you crank your car, and hit it with a timing light, can you see a steady crank timing?
    • Oh, forgot to add, A few months ago I was getting mixture codes and the car was using crap loads of fuel. You could smell the unburned fuel in the exhaust, it was crazy strong. Economy was over 17.5 l/100 and usually around 19. I smoked the engine and found a leaky CCV hose which I replaced and then I replaced my two pre cat O2 sensors, I also replaced the MAF. This fixed my mixture codes and improved my exonomy but I'm still 14 - 15 l/100 when pottering about town so something is still amiss. Throttle response is much better and it has more pep but I'd like to know why it's still so thirsty (and I'm hoping that whatever it is gives me a bit more poke).    
    • Car is on factory injectors/z32 maf/ q45 throttle body/ z32 ecu with nistune 
    • Hello all, currently finishing up a rb25 swap into my s14. Having issues with starting, car has spark (confirmed by pulling a plug and watching it spark), has fuel(confirmed by checking pulse/voltage at injectors all spark plugs are soaked in fuel). Car cranks over and pops into the exhaust with a heavy fuel smell but no attempt to start or run, I have torn the timing cover off and triple confirmed timing, turned the CAS in multiple spots both directions, attempted to start with coolant temp and maf unplugged, checked my fuel lines and made sure they weren’t backwards, checked voltage at cas/injectors/coilpacks, made sure all the grounds in the harness are connected and added a few grounding straps (1 from chassis to block, 1 from chassis to head, and 1 from chassis to igniter chip) I am getting stumped here. As a last ditch effort I made a full grounding harness tonight that’s going to run from the battery and add an extra ground from the battery onto the coil pack harness/igniter chip/ intake manifold/ Wiring specialties harness ground/ and alternator. I’m hoping maybe the grounding harness will fix it here but posting here to see if anyone has any other ideas on what else I can check. My fuel pressure is unknown right gauge will be here tomorrow.  IMG_3206.mov
