Well tonight was pretty succesfull all round. Most of all macca.

I ran a 13.8, which I was very pleased about, Couldn't do it again though!!

Macca started with a 13.06, which we were all impressed with. But he had to show off and pull a 12.9 on his final atempt!!

Sean(or shan?) was pullin 13.1's to I think about 13.6's.

And adam was havin a bit of trouble with his car, 14.4 was his best I think.

Paul Didn't race cause his car is slow.

But all in all a pretty good night. (I'm F#ckin Happy!!)

We think Hicks actually picked up someone else's slip cause he only ran 14's when people were watching. :DThe only reason I didn't run was casue I had to lend my racing slicks to Macka, only reason he got the 12.9, other wise I'd have shown you what a 13 sec car looks like.

Well done Hicks.

See'ya:burnout:

Well done Hicks.. not a bad effort at all.. gotta be pretty happy.

Adam.. you can try again when you get the car sorted out. If you don't burn it between now and then. Just have faith.

and Macka, bloody Macka.. just when I thought I had ya beat. Well done old boy, 12.98 is somethin to be proud of...especially seeing as you raced the whole night without blowin anything up.

Well I'm pretty stoked with my 13.10 ... the little Sr was screamin it's head off all the way down the quarter.

Time for some real mods.. please God, gimme 12's . :(

Hehe I think most of us were happy with the results,

On one run it was pretty funny Hicks took 2 car lengths on me at the start and then he looked at me as i flogged past him and I waved :D I think thats when u got u your 13.8 Hicks :(

I pulled my 12.98 Racing that Torana and he blew me a new hole but thats when i did my best too..

Oscar (Shannon) Did bloody good thats when i thought they were having Timeclock problems when he showed me his 13.2 first run!

KillerT Those tyres are top secret, They are worth a lot maybe we can do a deal haha.

Dont tell GTS-t VSPEC hey but ill give u a hint, It wasnt the tyres that did it :(

Macka,

What do you mean it wasn't the tyres!??? It must be that large snail that crawled into your engine bay. Shit, just imagine the time you could have got on some decent tyres, probably would have fried your clutch though if you got more traction.

See'ya:burnout:

    • Ahhh, I need the whole head unit. I definitely needed to roll back through and review your setup, ha ha! Neat setup they have going on. I just need a full double din head unit. But I want good and responsive. I might have to review what the likes of pioneer have out these days.
    • Ok so after much research and talking with knowledgeable people I've got my turbo conversion done and it's all running great other than 1 small issue.  Car has remained auto with the na auto and tcm, I've used a stagea ecu with. NIstune board and everything is great other than my gear selection on the dash. It illuminates park, reverse, neutral, 3rd and 2nd. But nothing drive or what gear your in when you pop it into tiptronic.  I'm sure there is may e 1 wire in the ecu plug I need to move to rectify this. Dose anyone here have any ideas?   Cheers guys
    • Sorry I haven't been following all the detail, so you may have tried this. Does it idle with the tiniest bit of throttle you can add? You've mentioned the IACV, does it have an AAC valve and have you adjusted it at all (ie, screw the idle adjust screw all the way in, then back it out a couple of turns until idle is stable)?
    • My bad, I unplugged the one underlined in red instead of yellow before. With the car started, after unplugging the IACV (the one underlined in yellow), it idled at around 400/500 for 3 seconds before stalling. Attempting to start the car without the IACV will not start the car.   It does stutter and sputter for around 5 seconds before dying. However, immediately after starting it, you can already hear some slight sputters from the exhaust.   It won't start with the AFM unplugged. If it is when the car has already started, it stalls in a few seconds.   Yesterday, I did take some logs using Nistune of 3 scenarios. Car idling till it stalls Car idling and unplugging the IACV Car idling and removing the AFM I also have some previous logs of when the Car is idling till it stalls and when driving and it cuts. I am not really knowledgeable enough to understand what to look for. After every test, car idles rougher and rougher, until I have to stop. It will be fine the day after.
    • There is no difference between a 17x8 and an 18x8. The total diameter of the tyre needs to remain +/- the same (so you don't mess up the gearing, speedo reading, and clearance when turning front wheels..... so you just need to use a lower profile tyre on th 18 than you do on the 17. /rocket surgery.
