Since there's been no mention or reference to Buster's Drag Day on the forums I thought I'd stir the pot... Do you think John's 300Z is going to do his proclaimed "easy 11's"? And what will pop on the motor? Will Adrian have enough nitrous/clutch for the day? Can Pete "Da Man" live for more than an hour without snapping boxes + driveshafts? Will "Dirt Garage" be going after the low mount record? Can Bu5ter pull off 128MPH in the Falcon wagon?

Place your bets!

Ok Chris - In Order:

Do you think John's 300Z is going to do his proclaimed "easy 11's"? And what will pop on the motor?

In short, no. I think "Team Trackday's resident Septigenerian" is going to find it harder than he expects on Saturday.

Will Adrian have enough nitrous/clutch for the day?

Enough Nitrous? Actually, my bottle is mostly empty - off to Robbie's house tonite I guess. Enough clutch? I reckon she'll be apples :D

Can Pete "Da Man" live for more than an hour without snapping boxes + driveshafts?

I hear that the auto's in now and I can't wait to see the times fall!

Will "Dirt Garage" be going after the low mount record?

Unfortunately, no.

Can Bu5ter pull off 128MPH in the Falcon wagon?

Buh-five-tah can do whatever he wants as long as it's Flintstones POWAH!

Will Doughie run a flukey 10 on his 1st pass and be made to sit out for the rest of the day?

hehehe....

Adrian

stickers are better Brett

You guys are lucky the datto broke a drive shaft on sunday from too many big rev launches

otherwise you might be in danger of dying of laughter.

Have fun poofs!

    • Thanks Dose.....    I appreciate it!!
    • I'll probably be putting the shit box back on the dyno again soon, I want to dial in the closed loop boost control properly. I'll have a camera facing the car/motor for fun too. Just note, there are essentially 3x 10AN inlets going into the catch can and 1x going back to the intake pipe. Most of the time the catch can "return" to the sump actually is the crank case breather, pushing air out.
    • I have the R3C with a Nismo slave and by no means does it behave like a stocker, it ain’t THAT bad. On take off just give a bit more throttle than you would say a coppermix and it’s fine. It will not slip though.   
    • Okay. Final round of testing done. Got a friend to hook up a fancy scanner to the car and we also ran some compression and leakdown tests, she is healthy.  The MAF was definitely the culprit. So for future reference anyone with similar issues that find this thread. I suggest the following steps, in order of affordability:   Check your spark plugs for any fouling, replace plugs if they are bad or re adjust the gaps making it narrower (0.8mm would be good). Check every coil's resistance with a multimeter. It can be done by probing the IB and G pins on the coil pack. Resistance should be around 1.4 (+/- 0.1) Ohms Check the MAF. If you have Nissan connect or a good scanner with the 14 adapter it should allow you to see the voltage on the MAF reading should be around 1.1 - 1.2V when car is idling. But if you don't, buy a new MAF from Amazon and test, then return it. (For instance, I got a Chinese one for $40 that was reporting 1.3v on idle). If you still have scanner, you can run tests on the injectors to see if they are working, just remember to unplug the fuel pump fuse/relay and have no pressure on the line. Then listen for the noises that the injectors make. Clean/replace injectors as needed. Once you find the issue and fix, order thousands of dollars worth of OEM parts to refresh unrelated things (Optional)   PS: Thanks to the absolute legends of this forum for the responses and help to someone that went a bit over their head.

    • Ha ha ha, so they stopped the bearings spinning on the one you want, but then decided the crank hub should slip instead 😛   Stick to RB, at least you can work on it yourself. And now it doesn't smell of vapour   Also I still believe there's a chance your new flap doesn't "pop", as even though the engine might breath hard, it has a direct path with no restriction to the inlet, which when on boost should pull a bit of suction for you. If you do get pressure in the catch can id be very intrigued. Time to put a boost gauge on it, and a session at the track, then solid cover your vent and do another session
