Well a good weekend... lots of positives, the extra power is helping, and the set up is coming along.

Smashed the front bar to bits on Saturday during Team Drift... never mind...

Sunday saw me up agains Kelly McKinnon, It was pretty tight first battle, but unfortunatly my handbrake got stuck on in the second battle and I spun... real bugger as I certainly had a chance... guess that is being chucked in the bin this week and replaced with a proper drift hand brake...

Team drift was fun, although a big smash saw the session canned after only one run.

Can't wait for Eastern creek at the end of next month... new turbo and a whole lot more incoming... stay tuned!

Dan.

Nice one Kinks!!! Post up some pics when you get it.

Richard, end of next month... as it says in the last line of the post... but more specifically in case that was what you meant... 29th and 30th of July.

See you all then!

Oh, and thanks for getting my AFR around the right way... I hate going by memory.

The Bel Motorsports sticker is on the wrong way around to be JDMyo

they are supposed to go from the front to the back of the vehicle...

But that is unless you are like Kelly McKinnon who thinks the other way

around is more aggressive looking... Anyway, take it or leave it.

If you look at this truck in my carpark you can see the way it works

with Chinese/Katakana characters... The letters are the correct way

around but go from the front to the back of the truck.

Anyway, congratulations on the results, keep up the good work!

Well development is coming along rather well... now have 224rwkw at a low 0.9bar of boost and at around 155kms in 4th gear. we also made 712nm at 70kms in 4th, and averaged 644nm across the entire rev range!

Which probably explains why I have no 4th gear syncro left. and 3rd gear is spitting out sometimes... I knew it would break eventually... but I was hoping for a little later in the season!

I have 2 dyno graphs, but I'll scan them tomorrow, or next week.

See you all at Eastern Creek the weekend after next!

Cheers,

Dan.

lol... you guys are vultures!!!

If I buy a new box the old one is being kept as a spare, looks like we will be buying a second handy for this round, and rebuilding the old one a bit stronger... especially as we are looking for more power still too!

If I look to sell it Nathan I'll give you a bell. (pm)

Dan.

Did I show you the new Pipe work and Catch can that RoadRunner Fabrications made up for me? Very Pretty!!!

Catch Can

And also someone asked a while back about dyno graphs... I finally remembered to get them... and they are below.

First is Power,224RWKW @ 12psi (0.9bar). We did another run with 20psi (1.3bar) and only made 227rwkw... so it is time for a bigger huffer... BRING IT ON.

Second is torque... again same settings as above, in fact same run! Max 712NM, Min 497NM, AVERAGE across the run was 644NM

    • If you have a RB25DET NEO AWD motor, you will need this: https://www.hioctanedirect.com/ASR-RB26-RWD-Street-Comp-6.5L-Sump-Suit-R32/33/34-and-VL It is made for the AWD motor, but makes it fit a RWD setup and gives you a new pickup. Just one thing, the pickup sits quite forward, compared to a conventional RB25DET RWD motor. This may or may not have contributed to my previous AWD -> RWD shitting the bed at the track.
    • My car is also flex tuned. It's worth mentioning it (the LS1 ECU) has a 1D table for E85 addition and just uses the ethanol stoich part as the second point of reference. It also as a 3D timing map for Ethanol adjustment. You would think this isn't enough but it works pretty damn well. That said, I wouldn't want it in turbo application. It's like lifting non-natty, or taking meth. It gets you unrealistic results that break down more things going forward. If people used it to make the same amount of power they do on 98 then it'd be one thing. But people use it, crank it up to eleventy million PSI, it doesn't knock - but it pushes the point of failure to another, more expensive thing to break. Every time I see someone make 280kw on 98 and 350kw on E85 on the same equipment I just cry a bit and really wish they would just stay on 98 in that exact scenario. It's bad for you. 
    • This is kind of what I was thinking but the temp sender wire and the two pressure switch wires run through the starter subharnes and I eliminated the two pressure switch wires completely.  @GTSBoy I have a can gauge with unusually bright warnings should the oil pressure fall so the factory light isn't needed. I need to dig out my wiring diagram and see if I can sort this out.
    • It's a valid point. And it is doable with the Nistune. But I'm not inclined to flex it the way Nistune does - certainly not on a Neo ECU. They're already pernickety enough to tune just one one fuel. And of course, I'm not that interested in putting in a Link or similar, on a daily. With the stock ECU, stock looking turbo, etc etc, I still stand a chance of surviving a run-in with the plod. Last time it went over the pits (which was for the transplant, for because of a run-in with the plod), the Nistuned ECU did not even raise an eyebrow. They want to see a stock ECU running the engine, and they are happy to see it do so without the check engine light** on. Never mind that the Nistune is necessary to make the stock ECU work in a different chassis without ABS, TCS, etc. **And they actually provoke the CEL to come on by disconnecting the AFM, to prove that the globe hasn't been pulled!
    • This is why you flex fuel it...
