just checked the wakefield website (like i always do daily) and there is an open track day, here are the dates.

sat 25th sep

sat 9th october

i will definetely be there, + will give some time for anyone/everyone to sort out their rides by then. so if anyone interested in coming up by all means do it'll be a perfect time to take your ride to the limit without having to worry bout the boys in blue as well as get your driving skills up to scratch.

I was going to head down, but a driveshaft broke (the bolts sheared out of the uni-joint style thing) on the front of the car so its out of action at the moment. If I can get it repaired and camshafts/cam gears/sump baffles done by then ill be down there.

Theres also another open day on October 9th (saturday again)

AAAArrrrgh!Only Whytry would understand how bad I wanted to be there!Same deal:damned work got in the way.And the next day on the 9th will be no different.Bloody Saturdays:working in retail means a one day weekend!

Still,maybe it's a good thing:as I play "hunter/gatherer" for parts,I am getting more knowledge that makes me think I really should add a few bits before my next trackday...

Still;I hate not getting "out there" even for some "gentle" laps....

    • You very likely need to get it on a dyno and tune it. My assumption is, you've got an RB25DET tune in it, which has a different manifold, different injectors, and different cams as a minimum. What O2 sensor are you running?   When you say it runs extremely rich from idle all the way to redline, is this just free revving it you see that?
    • I seem to the be only person that is using a Haltech 2500 on an NA motor, I've installed a Bosch DBW throttle body to the OEM intake manifold and am having problems maintaining AFR even with the wideband o2.  It will run extremely rich at idle and up to redline, but under load it will go extremely lean in the 20s and i'm essentially having to rev it over 4k and feather the clutch to get it up to speed.  I've read a few other threads of about the butterfly, it seems removing the vacuum to it is supposed to have it remain open, i've noticed no difference under 4k with the vacuum line to it plugged.  I'm hoping someone here has had luck using the NA manifold with Haltech, and if they happen to have a tune for it.  
    • I don't know any details, but I really wouldn't be surprised if they do it as a LHD only version, at least initially.
    • Thanks for the replies everyone. Definitely a coolant push. Oil catch can is empty and always has been. As the engine is out now I'll be having a good look over things. I do have some detonation on the piston tops from a trigger issue back about 5 years ago. I felt it and shut off then bought a new ecu and changed the trigger. Never been an issue since. It never hurt the power, its made almost 80hp more since that incident but I will pull the bearing caps to take a look. If the bearings are damaged I will do a bottom end refresh. Head is being re conditioned at the moment and the block will be cleaned and checked to ensure it's flat. I'll go with a kameari gasket and see how it ends up. The other thing I'm not super keen on is the cylinder colours. I suspect this is from the inlet manifold. The plan will be to put it back together, retune and then stick a plazmaman billet inlet on it and retune. I'm happy with the power, if it makes a little more, then great, but I would rather just make everything more efficient at this stage.
    • Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...
