MrGTST - don't worry man - I'd way be in the same boat.. thats why I'm still thinking of if I should compete or not...

What say I bring down a few helmets and we see what happens?

Anyone got a plan/where to meet worked out? Maybe we should meet up south perth way and all head in together?

"Don't be soft, it's easy.." I've heard and followed that advice before.. hehe.... tends to hurt...

But seriously - I'll be running with a 14, maybe 13.8 second car.. nothing flash so I can't see how I'm going to do anything cept for hurt my stock clutch some more..

OK fair enough.... Another question.... Is there a BP nearby that sells BP Ultimate??? I ask because since I boosted my car really chews through the petrol quickly... To the extent I am concerned about getting there and back on one tank of fuel!!! The cruise to Yanchep should be interesting too!!!

I dunno about that... Maybe its my lead foot but I use about a quarter of a tank just going to Scarborough and back and I live near Warwick so its not very far at all.... Dare I even try to drive the 40 plus K's one way to the Motorplex drag and try to get home :P

I think you could put it down to my lead foot and the fact that I am still enjoying the novelty of high boost all the time.... even when its not needed.....

"I think I will go to the shops .... that will require high boost for sure" :P

    • Whilst the brewery had good beer, I didn't rate the pork knuckle, the meat was good, but, there was no crackling, the skin was just thick and chewy Will return at some stage for the beer, but, I will wash the beer down with chips Plus, no sauerkraut, in what world do people serve pork knuckle without sauerkraut, they did serve apple slaw with it, which was nice, but.......#sauerkraut the world
    • Wow yeah ok. Given how specific you are about your car, I'm very surprised you are happy to do that.  As a bare minimum, without having a wideband gauge in the car or running it up on the dyno to check mixtures, there is no way I'd do that to my car.  You beat me to it, was going to say just this. 
    • Yeah - that's not true. Larger turbos flow more at the same boost. By definition. I've always found it funny when the claim of same flow same power because same boost is made. The turbine is larger, therefore will put up a lower restriction to flow at any given flow, cf the stock one. Hence, you need less boost to make the same flow through the whole system. Hence, when you have the same boost as before, you must have more flow. -5s are a pretty decent bit bigger than stock.
    • That's basically how I've been driving my R33 for a while now. GTIII-SS running wastegate boost. It makes no more power than stock because the turbos aren't flowing any more air than stock. Eventually though I need to fix this so it can actually drive as it should.
    • If this was my own car, I would pull about 5 degrees off the CAS, run a wideband, and if that seems ok, send it.
