Those burnout are under my house so I'll be using them on my car first thanks bigfella (lets call it storeing fee) besides tim won't notice some rubber missing off them, that is if I can get the tarago to spin them. The auto box in it has been a bit lazy recently. So there may be plenty of rubber for the both of us.

I'll be up for skidpan/LVMA or whatever, but I'm not too keen on the dirt track idea. Too much of a pain in the ar$e. If only my Commodore was still running... ah the joys of having a terrible paint job... :D

hope ya guys dont mind gettin shown up by a holden she may be interested in a drag if they got a quarter mile track but if your car cant do it in 13 secs or better dont bother her holden can do quarter mile in 11 flat

Not bad at all - sounds like a bit of a unit. I hope she doesn't mind being level-pegged down the quarter and beaten in top end by a bone stock sub 1-litre 4 cylinder :)

Hope I am not too late in registering my interest in both the Skid-Pan day and the Drift Day (Tarmac or dirt)!

It is raining this morning (Sat 21st) and I am off to Coopers Plains to the industrial estates to perfect my styles...

You guys just tell me when and where and I will be there.

My ceramic Exceedy button Clutch has only been in for about 6 months and it already wont chirp into 2nd anymore, so the sooner the better for me, I will have to replace it again with something like a twin-plate clutch soon. (MORE CASSSSSH :burnout: )

Very interested...keep me posted please.

    • 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.
    • In my head it does make sense to be a fuel problem since that is what I touched when cleaning the system. When I was testing with the fuel pressure gauge, the pressure was constantly 2.5 bar with the FPR vacuum removed. When stalling, the pressure was going up to 3.0 bar (which is how it should be on ignition).
    • ECUtalk pages don't mention they support the ABS computer (consult port has more than one CAN), so you might just need a different scan tool. But, I would expect ABS is a different light to the brake warning/handbrake light, do you see an ABS light come on for a few seconds when you turn the key from ACC to IGN? But since you said: I'd have a look at the ABS sensors in the rear hubs to make sure they are not damaged, disconnected etc.
    • OK, if it idles at 1000+ with the AAC, its not an idle airflow problem. The cold start valve just gives extra air when the engine is cold, but you have enough air without it to idle at 1000. I think you are back to a fuel problem, sorry. Can you see the fuel pressure staying constant or does it drop as the revs drop to a stall?
