Duncan, I'll be there but I may be late (very likely).

Just spent $1 768 934.29 on new brake pads so I'm not going to miss this one.

I'm bringing a pyrometer as well for those who want to see what their tyres etc. are doing.

:burnout:

Hail NUR spec.... I'm not worthy...

Sure was genuine, belongs to Peter from Powerplay Imports. Apparently it goes alright, too!

Dino, did you have those temps from my tyres?

Just got home - installed CORRECT rings on pistons at workshop (and replenished lost bodily fluids) on the way.

Missed my car, missed my co-driver, didn't miss having a good time though - passenger with an EC newbie in WRX, toooottally sideways fullllllllll oposite lock through turn 8 ..................................................................high speed ................................and he put the boot in and in and in and saved it .......BALLS!!!!

Passenger with fatz - how come you have to wave at allllllllll the cameras when you are sideways, or is it cos' you can.

As usual a good day.

DON91E and tactic, you should have come up and said hi. Did one of you own the Blue 32?

Duncan, I'll send you the temps later.

Sorry I didn't make it to the pub this time (again!) guys. That traffic looked like a turd and as it was I was late for dinner.

Dang!!!

...those piccies are the money, now left with hollow, inadequate feeling that i cant do that!

Course you can mate... just need to practice. I have been practicing for the last few track days (3 sets of rears) and am not as good as fatz, but I'm getting better.

Just follow him for a few laps and learn the lines, then ask him how he does it!

Looking forward to the 19th... hopefully I won't get tyre issues... found that drifting on steel belts is really, REALLY easy... like you don't even have to try... right dad!!!

Howdy people. Ben here (the guy in the blue WRX).

Big thanks to everyone for a cracker of a day last Thursday.

Special thanks to Simon for his instruction and nearly putting me into a wall on my second ever lap of EC. :D

Can't wait to do it again-had a blast.

    • I guess one thing that might be wrong is the manifold pressure.  It is a constant -5.9 and never moves even under 100% throttle and load.  I would expect it to atleast go to 0 correct?  It's doing this with the OEM MAP as well as the ECU vacuum sensor. When trying to tune the base map under load the crosshairs only climb vertically with RPM, but always in the -5.9 column.
    • AHHHH gotchaa, I'll do that once I am home again. I tried doing the harness with the multimeter but it seems the car needed a jump, there was no power when it was in the "ON" position. Not sure if I should use car battery jump starter or if its because the stuff that has been disconnect the car just does send power.
    • As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.  
    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack. 
    • Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
