Just a note on the results.

Firstly the times from Blaise's Bunny aren't counting towards to outright competiton due to the large number of people that missed out setting a time.

Also due to an error in the way half of the 1st set of times were recorded in the Long Wang we only have used the times from peoples 2nd and 3rd runs for this event.

Hopefully otherwise we dont have too many concerns about times given this time around.

Cheers - and congrats to Scotsman and David M on their class victories.

I am chuffed with my times! :D

Out of the box liberty with 2 mods. An SAU group buy window tint and my private plates :(

How come Ryan isnt down as the winner of the 2wd slalom yet won it 3 times? :(

we were under the impression that only two of the timed runs from each course would count and not all 3. but bleh, you get that. still had awesome fun.

Im fairly happy with my times & surprised at some of the people i beat. I was worried i'd end up behind Scott after seeing some of the times he was doing.

Jarrod, is that 39.6 on the first motorkhana the one when i was in the passenger seat? i think i know how you got such a good time.

Andrew, if you make any modifications to the results could you change my car to R32 instead of R33.

because all three times i touched the same cone, bit dissapointing but ah well. it was so much fun, i like the slalom with the triangle up the top, makes it a bit harder for the big HP cars and gives the slower cars a chance to get up there.

I thought if it wasnt moved it didnt count.

Ah well, with more DECA's next year you are bound to get on top at one. :)

he did take out the fastest time on the Short Wang in 2WD comp which is a mighty fine performance given it is a bit of a HP track.

But he probably was one of the few guys who didnt come off a little over that hill. I did some video footage there for a bit and it seemed most guys didn't quite have the wang to keep the foot fully down over the hill.

quick question... on the long wang... if hypothetically I don't go through the chicane, but instead plough through a (single) cone, does that count as a 5 second penalty only?

depends on which single cone we are talking about.

If it was the one on say the very edge of the road (A) or (F) it would be 5s for the cone being hit + 10s for the 2 other cones you went on the wrong side of.

(A)___(B)___( C)

.....................(D)___(E)___(F)

If it was just the 1 cone in the middle ( C) or (D) then yes its just 5s.

Does that make sense?

Well thats how it should "technically" be.

It also means if you went "off road" and went around all the cones then you'd have missed 3 cones which = DNF.

Sorry Jarrod didnt mean to drive that slow on the long wang kinda didnt know where i was going :) so went a lil slower... althought the short wang was alright kept similar times to yourself... and again well done to all that won events :D...

makes good sense, cheers. The way I was thinking, line up cone C, go over it, take a 5 sec penalty and not reduce your speed in the chicane.

Technically as long as you clock the whole course in 39 seconds at top speed (as you won't be slowing down for chicanes), if you take a 15 point hit in penalties for knocking 3 cones, you could have equalised with Chris for top time :)

if you lost 5s per chicane then its a good plan but there's no way that you should slow down that much to go through those chicanes that you'd gain 5s by hammering through!

LOL, unless your car doesn't like changing direction rapidly :D

    • Stock ECU (or more accurately stock tune) absolutely refuses to go over 10psi and behaves like you have seen. The Nistune is the same if it is the stock tune. If the Nistune chip has been tuned, the resulting tune could be literally anything for any combination of parts. The Nistune just makes the stock ECU Tunable.
    • So stock ECU does not like anything above 10 psi?  That Nistune one is just for "try" if it will be any different, I know it need to be tune for that. I know but YOU may know about these problem but i/we dont. They few little Skylines here let alone people who know anything about tham so that is why iam asking here  
    • So now we have a radiator with no attachments whatsoever. It lifts up with a particularly tight spot between the drivers side air box mount and the lower radiator outlet, but if you've got this far you will sort that too. This is the lower mounts with the rad out so you can see where the rubber bushes go, it is a straight shot upwards Done! Assembly is the reverse of disassembly, with blood less likely to be shed.
    • Right, onto the second last trick. The Air Con condenser is mounted to the front of the radiator and stays in the car when the radiator is removed. There are 2x 10mm headed self tappers holding the top of the condenser to the radiator, remove those The bottom of the condenser is attached to the radiator with clips. You need to lift the condenser out of those clips and clear (up, then forward). f**ked if  could work out how to do that last bit with the front bumper on. I hope you can, and you share the trick.  Bumper removal probably deserves its own thread one day once I've recovered the will to live, but basically you need to remove the wheels, front inner guard liners (clips and 10mm headed bolts), the self tapper between the guard and the bumper at the rearmost point of the bumper (same as an R32 that bit), any remaining clips at the top/front of the grill, an absolute bastard design with a plate that holds the top of the bumper above the headlight each side (only 1 bolt which is tricky to get to, but the plate catches 2 places on the bumper and must be removed....carefully!) and push clips between the bumper and guard under the headlight. If you've done all that you will be faced with wiring for the fog lights on both sides and in ADM Q50 RS at least, 4 nasty tight plugs on the driver's side for the ADAS stuff. So, the clips at the bottom look like this on drivers side (looking from the front) And on the passenger side (also from the front), you can see this one is already out Clearance on both of these are super tight; the condenser needs to move up but the upper rad support mount prevents that, and the radiator can't move down far because it is (rubber) mounted. Once you achieve the impossible and drop the condenser off those mounts so it does not stop the rad moving, you are good to go
    • OK, next the shroud needs to come off and there are a couple of tricks. Firstly, there is a loom from near the passenger side headlight to the fans, coolant temp sensor etc and there is no plug to undo.  In my case I was OK to leave the shroud on top of the engine so I just undid the passenger side fan plug and about 10 of the clips which gave enough free wire to put it aside. The fan plugs were super tight, the trick I used was a small falt screwdriver to push down on the release tab, then a larger flat screwdriver to lever the plug out of the fan unit....be careful with how much force you apply! If you need to remove the shroud altogether for some reason you will have to deal with all the plugs (tight) and clips (brittle)....good luck. I removed all of the clips and replaced them with cable ties that I will just cut next time. Also, in the Red Sport / 400R at least, the intake heat exchanger reservoir hose is bolted to the shroud in 2 places with 10mm headed bolts; so remove them (the hose stays in the car; no need to undo it at the t fittings down at the radiator lower mount. Once you've dealt with the HX hose and the wiring loom, there are 3x 10mm headed self tappers holding the top of the shroud to the radiator; remove those.   The shroud then lifts out of the bottom mounts where it sits on the radiator, up and onto the engine out of the way.
