The oil is the "Bling"... can't have a K&N filter without the oil!!!

LOL... gearbox... yeah... I have to call about that now actually...

Jeff, Yeah, they are out of the way there. Lynden from RoadRunner Fabrications is doing a bunch of stuff for my car, and that was one of the things. Fits perfectly, and can be made to hold 3.250L of oil, not that I ever want to fill it!!! which is more than is needed in my category.

Cheers,

Dan.

Hey Dan,

I was the pit exit offical at Symmons Plains on the weekend.

I didn't make it over for a closer look at your car but was very impressed with the tyre smoking torque it had!!

I just found this thread, the silver bare interior pics look sweet!

Good luck with the rest of the series. :(

Thanks Matt,

Yeah I think I might have been the only driver using 3rd and 4th gears on the tight track... that is the MIGHTY torque of the RB engines... lol.

Had a great weekend, just a shame I ended up loosing to James Vahoomis (SP?) after all those re runs... never mind... they'll be in my house on the 24th of September!

Cheers,

Dan.

Duncan,

Hit the wall...

Thanks Jimbo! :) :) ;)

I must say that I have been a little slack with it all the last little while, but that is not to say that we haven't been busy with the car and Drifting!!!

Lots of progress recently at Tassie, and apart from trying to get the bloody car back into NSW we had a great time away.

I did hit the wall during a battle though, not a huge hit, but enough to damage the car. Not enough to retire me though... you'll have to watch SpeedWeek on the 17th if you want to know how the battles finished up!

As for the car we will make a new manifold for it next week, steam pipe and then bolt the new turbo on... look out for the new dyno sheets soon.

We also had some oil pressure issues in Tassie, I'm fairly sure that it was just the sender for the guage that is buggered, but we are checking everything anyway.

Oh, and great news, I have my website up now... not heaps on it yet, and still plenty of work to do to get it up and going, but it is a start, and I'll keep going with it as I get time. so check out www.mackieracing.com for all the latest!

I'll catch you all soon kids,

Dan.

Just checked your webpage - Joomla aaay. Lemme know if you need some basic help. Haven't played with joomla to a great extent but if you're a noob then I might be able to help. If you're a developer level geek then I probably can't help :D

Keep em updates comin! :rant:

Not ready yet... but pumped... HELL YEAH!

Oh, and Fink's 200sx was an aussie built car, they didn't have the new car then, they do now, but apparently it won't be debuting this weekend...

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      The oil pressure sensor for logging, does it happen to be the one that was slowly breaking out of the oil block? If it is,I would be ignoring your logs. You had a leak at the sensor which would mean it can't read accurately. It's a small hole at the sensor, and you had a small hole just before it, meaning you could have lost significant pressure reading.   As for brakes, if it's just fluid getting old, you won't necessarily end up with air sitting in the line. Bleed a shit tonne of fluid through so you effectively replace it and go again. Oh and, pay close attention to the pressure gauge while on track!

      I don't know it is due to that. It could just be due to load on track being more than a dyno. But it would be nice to rule it out. We're talking a fraction of a second of pulling ~1 degree of timing. So it's not a lot, but I'd rather it be 0... Thicker oil isn't really a "bandaid" if it's oil that is going to run at 125C, is it? It will be thicker at 100 and thus at 125, where the 40 weight may not be as thick as one may like for that use. I already have a big pump that has been ported. They (They in this instance being the guy that built my heads) port them so they flow more at lower RPM but have a bypass spring that I believe is ~70psi. I have seen 70psi of oil pressure up top in the past, before I knew I had this leak. I have a 25 row oil cooler that takes up all the space in the driver side guard. It is interesting that GM themselves recommend 0-30 oil for their Vette applications. Unless you take it to the track where the official word is to put 20-50w oil in there, then take that back out after your track day is done and return to 0-30.

      Nice, looks great. Nice work getting the factory parts also. Never know when you'll need them.

      I take it that the knock retard is from bearings tapping a little tune? Thicker oil is a fragile bandaid. You need a much bigger oil cooler and probably the bigger pump being discussed.
