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.

      I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.

      Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.

      ECU sees many times the speed than speedo does (R34 swap)

      It's needed for rolling idle up, and I think it is a decider on VCT also.

      I mean, not really. Link ECU's can absolutely still have errors from the ECU thinking it's getting a sensor it's not expecting. I would imagine the speed at the ECU level in Nistune does absolutely nothing anyway? I assume the ECU does not do any fancy TC stuff with regards to front+rear wheel speed or anything of that like anyway. Someone who uses Nistune may be more fluent in it.
