I didnt feeling like carrying my camera around all day so i didnt get many photos, but it seemed like every time i went to get something out of my car there was another broken WRX parked next to it, so heres a few pics of WRXs.

Yeah Adrian that's the thing though, at Winton after I came in to tighten up the clamp, the car was fine the rest of the day.. Since then Ive been to Calder and Phillip Island, with no such problem whatsoever.... First flying lap yesterday, BANG, it comes off, and did so for the other 4 outings on the track..... So yeah you could say I was fed up....

Problem will be fixed with all the clamps replaced with decent thick ones, not the crap original ones.... Seems like it won't hold full boost in 4th gear.....

Can't wait for the next track day!!!!!

Hey Tom what happened to those few REX's they are a total mess, hope noone was hurt....

That one rolled at turn 1 on 1 of the last super sprints.

I saw some pics the guy that was trying to sell for $25 for A4 size and damn i need some new springs and rear end suspension work, the rear end was loading up on 1 side and frying the tyres out of each corner exit.

Told you those photos of you told the story why you cant get thru/out of corners without torching those poor tyres. LOL and you wanted to try the spare rims with semis:)

Yep I saw 1 of becs pics coming out of turn 1 and there is 1 of chris's car at he same corner and angle of photo and it says alot about how bad my current suspension setup is!!!!

Drew (jorg) - really nice to meet you as well. And a huge Kudos to your Mrs for giving it a go as well.

Can you tell us about your car? Pretty stock still?

The Mrs gave it a punt...awesome:thumbsup:

I thought i was being clever getting there at 8am but still only just managed to get a bay:( I think next time it may pay to get there 30 mins earlier so that we can all stay in a huddle...didnt really get a chance to go down near Denham and co:(

Ok - just going through the results for the club championship and a special mention has to go to Wayne for breaking the club record with 18 timed laps (not including warm-up / cool down or the practise session laps). Previous best was 15 laps.

Certainly beats Jacks 1 timed lap.

Wayne was parked next to me in pit row and he went out every session he could, and refilled his tank 2 times during the day :D

I was using 1/4 tank per session, not sure if that is normal? I will install my safc for the next round. Also, here is a pic for you Denham:

    • 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.
    • 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.
