when did gtr cam get the dent in his front guard? its quite large.....

Friday night after he left my place when we changed the ECu back from the Motec to standard...it is a sore spot so we will leave it at that...some farkers have no respect for others cars

So all his runs on the weekend were done with the standard ECU, so you WILL see the times come down when that piece of crap is sorted...

Thanks to all who said hello to me over the weekend, was a fun day yesterday!

I was in a really bad mood on Saturday after some ASSHOLE decided to reverse into my front right side guard whilst I was at a mates place... :D

Especially after tracing my problems with the car back to the Motec (long story)....

All in all not a bad weekend, did a 12.71 in qualifying, would have done better in two races had I not backed off & as Bob said, only a stupid mistake cost me a place in the final of ET.....

Looking forward to getting the Motec sorted & being able to run very low 12's...

was a great day, my mates GSR ran a new PB of 11.5@123mph and then went on to win the ET bracket on sunday! Was lucky the other guy broke out cause Nick stripped 3rd and 4th gear in the final. I knew i should have gone on sunday too! :P

That brown dato wagon was going a full second quicker than the last time i saw it race and was putting the rotor boys to shame with HUGE wheel stands.

Was good to see the pac mx6 running consistant low 7's, i noticed they have Tony Wedlocks crew cheif working for them which i'm guessing must be play a large part in the low times. Tony's pro stock car is one of the fastest out there and i'm pretty sure hes the current champ.

Trent for Mercury Motorsport would have to be in the running for the hand grenade award after spitting half his tailshaft clean outa his 200sx.

My mate Chris unfortunetly blew something up on the line in his 10sec dato 1200 ute, that was a shame as it was a brand new motor and the car had just been mini-tubbed to.

The kiwis impressed with new PB's for both cars, that sr20 powered gemi was awsome apart from the shopping trollie wing :D

Archies car was running well till he almost lost it right at the end of the track, they must have taken some power out cause he ran 7.5's for the rest of the day.

All in all it was a great day, huge crowd and some great racing.

    • Yeah well per the video it took 15s for the stock unit to start up....even if I give it a few seconds discount for starting that is at least 12 sec before you get a reverse camera if you are trying to leave a park.  The android unit is way faster, but 2016 for the stock unit is a long time ago in consumer electronics
    • Yea that’s why I said ima test them with multimeter and see the reads.
    • Only at idle. Isn’t a problem when rev it seems.
    • @Haggerty This seems silly to ask, but are you confident in your ability to tune the Haltech?  
    • Next on the to-do list was an oil and filter change. Nothing exciting to add here except the oil filter is in a really stupid place (facing the engine mount/subframe/steering rack). GReddy do a relocation kit which puts it towards the gearbox, I would have preferred towards the front but there's obviously a lot more stuff there. Something I'll have to look at for the next service perhaps. First time using Valvoline oil, although I can't see it being any different to most other brands Nice... The oil filter location... At least the subframe wont rust any time soon I picked up a genuine fuel filter, this is part of the fuel pump assembly inside the fuel tank. Access can be found underneath the rear seat, you'll see this triangular cover Remove the 3x plastic 10mm nuts and lift the cover up, pushing the rubber grommet through The yellow fuel line clips push out in opposite directions, remove these completely. The two moulded fuel lines can now pull upwards to disconnect, along with the wire electrical plug. There's 8x 8mm bolts that secure the black retaining ring. The fuel pump assembly is now ready to lift out. Be mindful of the fuel hose on the side, the hose clamp on mine was catching the hose preventing it from lifting up The fuel pump/filter has an upper and lower section held on by 4 pressure clips. These did take a little bit of force, it sounded like the plastic tabs were going to break but they didn't (don't worry!) The lower section helps mount the fuel pump, there's a circular rubber gasket/grommet/seal thing on the bottom where the sock is. Undo the hose clip on the short fuel hose on the side to disconnect it from the 3 way distribution pipe to be able to lift the upper half away. Don't forget to unplug the fuel pump too! There's a few rubber O rings that will need transferring to the new filter housing, I show these in the video at the bottom of this write up. Reassembly is the reverse Here's a photo of the new filter installed, you'll be able to see where the tabs are more clearing against the yellow OEM plastic Once the assembly is re-installed, I turned the engine over a few times to help build up fuel pressure. I did panic when the car stopped turning over but I could hear the fuel pump making a noise. It eventually started and has been fine since. Found my 'lucky' coin underneath the rear seat too The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uLJ65pmQt44&t=6s
