Hey guys,

hope no one gets offended or anything, but i tried to post this on SDU 2 weeks ago and it was deleted for reasons i have no idea! I even stated that no speed limits were broken........

This is about how it went:

"A new monaro kill"

I was heading into town on a sunday morning on a single lane highway. And i see this black commodore coming up fast behind me, and starts tail gating me bad. He overtakes on a corner (dickhead) and flies past. The lanes come into double lanes and i come up beside him. We then get into town where it is 60. I wind my window down and so did he. There were 2 guys that looked all of 16, and from the "fully sick" religion.

He goes "nice rice burner mate, betchya its pretty slow!!"

So i said "does your mum know youre driving her car??"

Then the passenger and driver go apeshit and start yelling at me and calling me all kinds of obscenities and swerving at me too. 8O 8O

We then exit town (where it goes back up to 100)

We come to a big round about (still double lanes) and theres nothing but straight flat road ahead. So as we exit the roundabout we both nail it. Straight away im in front. Start of third and im about 1 car length. End of third about 3. Then i slowed quick as cars were up ahead.

He then slowed right down and would not come up next to me. :lol: :lol:

Then i turned off a bit later. And thats it.

I dunno why this was deleted on SDU.....

Hey Ethan your car is certainly maturing isnt it?

Remember the problem with the airflow metre?[/quote:757c43f146]

Hey mate, i sure have!!!! :):)

Yeah mate i still remember that AFM prob, god that was horrible. I remember i went out cruising one time when i had that prob and a V6 commodore beat me, and i felt SOOOOO bad.

But yeah ive got it going good and a few mods, hopefully some more to come to :wink:

hehehehe Munro suckx again eh? I had a drag with one the other week, my story was also removed from SDU - maybe their "sponsors" are actually Holden Dealerships - anyway I was on my way to get a slow leak fixed when the wank from a local car yard - who knows my car is n/a - pulls up and starts revving at the lights.

He thought it would be nice to show off as he had a customer in the car for a test drive. I wasn't going to launch so I just ingnored him but he just kept revving so I waited til the very and of the orange light for the other traffic and did the 'ol 3-2-1 count in my head for the green.

As soon as the other traffic had red I stomped the loud-pedal which gave him a startle as he looked to see how big my muffler was and he missed the green, I popped the clutch and flew off the line and it wasn't until the end of third he had started to catch up but by that stage I was turning into the tyre place and his passenger was pissing himself laughing.

That afternoon I went into the dealership to have a look at 'ol Munro and they asked me to leave and not park out the front of their yard again 8)

lol Squizz, glad the passenger was pissing himself.

Do you get that often? :)

they would of been deleted as "kill" stories are seen to promote street racing which isn't all that safe or legal. you can see how some sponsers of clubs would be offended by that.

but anyways way to go guys, i got 2 monaros to the 'lines name, one rolling on the freeway both dropped back a gear and went, the joys of 3 am got to speed limiter afew car lengths ahead of him then it kicked in and he went by, but i got him it kicked in.

other was from the ligths like squizzes

  • 2 years later...

well my old car nor my new car has ever been beaten by a v8, but my new one was only on d road for 2-3 months and been sitting around doing nothing for the other 3 :(. and my old car was a lil faster, had a rb20 with a ballbearing garret turbo @ 12psi, bigger injectors, fuel pump, 4" exhaust and brass button clutch not sure what it ran cause i never dyno'd or ran down the quarter but im guessing would have been a flat 13 or some shit? because i beat a stock r32 gtr down parra road (was silver and early-mid last year), if the guys on here was ma old white r32 :) woo woo

    • After my last update, I went ahead with cleaning and restoring the entire fuel system. This included removing the tank and cleaning it with the Beyond Balistics solution, power washing it multiple times, drying it thoroughly, rinsing with IPA, drying again with heat gun and compressed air. Also, cleaning out the lines, fuel rail, and replacing the fuel pump with an OEM-style one. During the cleaning process, I replaced several hoses - including the breather hose on the fuel tank, which turned out to be the cause of the earlier fuel leak. This is what the old fuel filter looked like: Fuel tank before cleaning: Dirty Fuel Tank.mp4   Fuel tank after cleaning (some staining remains): Clean Fuel Tank.mp4 Both the OEM 270cc and new DeatschWerks 550cc injectors were cleaned professionally by a shop. Before reassembling everything, I tested the fuel flow by running the pump output into a container at the fuel filter location - flow looked good. I then fitted the new fuel filter and reassembled the rest of the system. Fuel Flow Test.mp4 Test 1 - 550cc injectors Ran the new fuel pump with its supplied diagonal strainer (different from OEM’s flat strainer) and my 550cc injectors using the same resized-injector map I had successfully used before. At first, it idled roughly and stalled when I applied throttle. Checked the spark plugs and found that they were fouled with carbon (likely from the earlier overly rich running when the injectors were clogged). After cleaning the plugs, the car started fine. However, it would only idle for 30–60 seconds before stalling, and while driving it would feel like a “fuel cut” after a few seconds - though it wouldn’t fully stall. Test 2 – Strainer swap Suspecting the diagonal strainer might not be reaching the tank bottom, I swapped it for the original flat strainer and filled the tank with ~45L of fuel. The issue persisted exactly the same. Test 3 – OEM injectors To eliminate tuning variables, I reinstalled the OEM 270cc injectors and reverted to the original map. Cleaned the spark plugs again just in-case. The stalling and “fuel cut” still remained.   At this stage, I suspect an intermittent power or connection fault at the fuel pump hanger, caused during the cleaning process. This has led me to look into getting Frenchy’s fuel hanger and replacing the unit entirely. TL;DR: Cleaned and restored the fuel system (tank, lines, rail, pump). Tested 550cc injectors with the same resized-injector map as before, but the car stalls at idle and experiences what feels like “fuel cut” after a few seconds of driving. Swapped back to OEM injectors with original map to rule out tuning, but the issue persists. Now suspecting an intermittent power or connection fault at the fuel pump hanger, possibly cause by the cleaning process.  
    • For race cars, this is one part where I find having the roll cage bar having gone through a hole in the floor better than the build it up on a ledge inside... The Merc I help on, the main hoop ends are marked on the car, and the jack is marked... Jack goes under a few inches and lifts one whole side of the car up... Removes that fight for long slim jacks for race car duties!   My biggest issue for the daily drivers I work on, is my jacks don't go high enough. The jacks start out on a few blocks, jack it up, then start a second jack under it on more blocks, and then I can get an axle stand under it. My axle stands are presently in use, and are nearly fully extended. The car is sitting with barely more than a cm of clearance to get the wheel off the studs! Sarah's Kluger is the same, as it has an ungodly amount of droop available in the suspension and a distinct lack of good jacking points!
    • Happy? Yep, my to do list is getting shorter and shorter. Either this light approaching is the end of the tunnel, or I'm about to be hit by a train... Ha ha ha   Also, Duncan isn't that far out of town that you need to make a multi day drive out of it. 😛
    • Sorry I meant that we are building the EH for a client.
