Shiv you cat....get the dvd crankin'

I do understand some interesting torture techniques that can...well.......you know the rest :) Just play it somewhere public. You'll be safe until we get you police protection.

Has anyone got the link to the WRX Club, i would really want to get the entry form for the Twilight sesion at Calder Park

Yes! me too Al, I'm keen to enter that one... I just put up a thread asking about it in the events section, but it disappeared?!!

The WRX club site is here - www.wrx.com.au but I couldnt find any info about a twilight club sprint in Jan...

I had a quick chat as I was leaving. I don't think he knew too much about the car but it was a silver R31 2 door which he said had been dressed up to look like a GTS-R. Was a damn tough looking car. Silver and had the plates "SEVNTH". Had an aftermarket turbo and other enine work. Very neat looking car. Was very quick too but didn't get any pics sorry.

hi man

that was our old car has a 2.8 litre in it

and trust me it is one torque monster

cya mate

PMSL - hey scott - does your dad have a website with all the photos he took from the weekend????

Nah he doesn't. I've got a whole bunch of his thumbnail printouts. There's 4 pics of the one's you were asking about. Come over and check em out if you want.

haha

sorry dude, I had a Christmas party for work on. Which is a lot more fun than watching your ugly mug :(

Anyways I forgot to tell Al that you could have that disc (its not the finished item). Either way pm me and you'll get a copy of it.

btw Its hard keeping all you girls happy with these videos

haha

where were u at the last meeting num nuts! u were going to bring a few copies of the Sandown DVD

hey guys,thats me in the silver volvo, sorry if i pi$$ed any of you guys off, all those skylines were very intimidateing! i wish the sweadish brick had power like that!i agree with some of the comments about other drivers, alot of people were going full noise and not takeing into acount of people around them. its a wonder these 'fundays' even exsist with todays 'legalites'.i had a great time non the less 90% of the people were very nice.a few people in holdens could't handel the fact that a volvo just went pass them so they were out to be a$$holes. i strongly recomend good tyres to have maximum fun as it makes alot differnce especialy if you are a newbe as they makeup for the mistake's.hopefuly ill be there next time, be sure to come and say hi.

BTW, what were some of the top speeds you guys were getting on the straights?

most i got was 165klm/h

michael. :D

the volvo- re-55 tyres,av-gas,kevlar pads,head ported/polished,larger throttle body,stratos racing seats,3.95:1LSD,custom cam,magnacore ignigtion,20degree advance timing,4spd close ratio hollenger gearbox with a 'real' short shift kit ;)

i saw 200klms...i think....adz might have been paying more attention than i was of the speed .....That crazy german in the supra saw 210 or something like that....hey volvo dude....you had an awful close mishap through the s there that bust's up the main straight!

Hi Mike,

My friend and I were suprised by number of volvos etc.

>> BTW, what were some of the top speeds you guys were getting on the straights?

>>most i got was 165klm/h

I think the best i got was around the same. Was driving an Auto, and didnt have a long enough run to build speed. Guess i lost too much speed through corners. I was aiming for cornering and not speed, so only boosted hard towards the end of the laps.

>> michael. :D

How the hell did you afford a hollenger? my friend works for them, and gear box are like 16 grand.

ylwgtr2>>> yeah that was pretty bloody skcetchy through there!!! i was seeing just how far i 'could' brake.... it turns out to stop from 150 you need at least 50m :P .go figure! it was volvo vs tire barrier, so i closed my eyes and prayed and some how i came out on the other side!

heartbrkr>>> i could't beleve that there were other volvos there!i thought i was going to be the only one, they were pushing hard to but they were just stock. the gearbox was built by a guy who owned the car before me. he had brought just the close ratio gearset and put them in himself. un-syncromeshed so it grinds if you dont double the clutch at hi rpm. he had brought the set awhile ago, and i think he new someone there, still cost him a few grand!

michael. :D

next time i will have the new exhaust and a few other treats.

    • My guesstimate, with no real numbers to back it up, is it won't effect it greatly at all.its not a huge change in position, and I can't see the air flow changing from in turbulence that much based on distance, and what's in front of it. Johnny and Brad may have some more numbers to share from experience though.
    • Which solenoid? Why was it changed? Again, why was this done? ...well, these wear..but ultimately, why was it changed? Did you reset the idle voltage level after fitment? I'm just a tad confused ~ the flash code doesn't allude to these items being faulty, so in my mind the only reason to change these things, would be some drive-ability issue....and if that's the case, what was the problem? Those questions aside, check if the dropping resistor is OK ...should be 11~14 ohms (TCU doesn't throw a flash code for this) ~ also, these TCU designs have full time power (to keep fault code RAM alive), and I think that'll throw a logic code (as opposed to the 10 hardware codes), if that power is missing (or the ram has gone bad in the TCU, which you can check..but that's another story here perhaps).
    • Question for people who "know stuff" I am looking at doing the new intake like the one in the picture (the pictured is designed for the OEM TB and intake plenum), this design has the filter behind the front bar, but, the filter sits where the OEM duct heads into the front bar, and the standard aperture when the OEM ducting is removed allows the filter to pulled back out of the front bar into the engine bay for servicing, a simple blanking plate is used to seal the aperture behind the filter This will require a 45° silicone hose from the TB, like the alloy pipe that is currently there, to another 45° silicone hose to get a straight run to the aperture in the front bar Question: how will it effect the tune if I move the MAF about 100-150mm forward, the red is around where my MAF is currently, and the green would be where it would end up Like this This is the hole the filter goes through  Ends up like this LOL..Cheers    
    • Despite the level up question, actually I do know what that is....it is a pressure sender wire.  So check out around the oil filter for an oil pressure sender, or maybe fuel pressure near the filter or on the engine. Possibly but less likely coolant pressure sensor because they tend to be combined temp/pressure senders if you have one. Could also be brake pressure (in a brake line somewhere pre ABS) but maybe I'm the only one that has that on a skyline.
    • Pull codes via the self-diagnosis procedure. As far as I can tell this is just a sign of transmission issues but not a code unto itself.
