Great day.. thanks again Paul for organising it all!

Times were pretty slow, but good learning experience. Least it was cheap on the tyres..

Think that kitty litter is going to take a few weeks to fully shake out of my car though (late brake woops)

Yeah I had a good day just drifting around, bummer about the rain - I was keen to try and post some good times.

Had fun anyway.

Thanks again Paul and Tim.

My very patient girlfriend took heaps of photos so I'll post up a couple of good ones when I get them.

Yeah great day Paul / Tim I had plenty of fun especially coming on to the the front straight you get a lot of sidewards action there.

Just one thing thou that page you got with the track times on you should put these times we got today under its own section like a (Wet weather track day times) then if we have another wet day like today we then can try and bet them times.

Just a suggestion

Cheers

btw whens the next one

He who creates bigger flame wins :P

Paul - great day thanks again. Anyone who owns a Skyline should come out for one of these days as they are great fun with a mix of cars and a great bunch of guys.

Rain = :D = Drift = :D

I love that pic! Might be time for some cat-out pipes for the next track day, I want flames!

Predator - yup sold the Grey GTSt and upgraded to the GTR but transferred the plates over. Which car were you in?

Disappointed not to conpare times between the 2 cars, however definately a totally different car to drive in the wet, so day wasn't a complete waste. Learnt the cars limits (and mine). Drifting a GTR in the wet is fun even if you do spin second corner on your warm up lap. oops :P

...that would be a good thing..... right(?) ;) ! Nothing compared to your mates rx7 though!!

I think it was the wet on the tyres.. does sound interesting though..don't often get to hear your car from the outside.

Some good shots in that selection of all you guys.

toy33.. ahh, makes sense now...you were getting some nice rich flammage out that back down the straights. I was in the black 32

    • 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.
