Is tampered time attack styles or is it door to door racing...?

Nothing is easier than buying a pump as mlr suggested crawling under your car undoing 1 bolt and pumping it in..your gumma have to crawl under there to empty it anyway... How's the redline work for you Mark? thinking of switching to it as well..

What turbo u putting in it platts...gimme a call if you want a hand mate, just book thread doctor in advance, you will need him..i didnt even undo my manifold bolts i let him do it, still broke 5 only 2 needed drilling though..dont think he works Saturdays either..
-
Turbo bolts aren't too bad its the manifold-head bolts you need to worry about..And the 3 bolts on the dump-front pipe are almost impossible without an oxy

Tuning Rb25S For Eflex And E85 .
ARTZ replied to discopotato03's topic in Engines & Forced Induction
My around town stop start fuel economy ain't so great..only 250-300kms a tank at best..but I have an as yet, unsorted idle issue But, my on track economy is very good, and a highway run netted me 350kms for 45lt..which is pretty good I think. I then filled up with pulp with 15 or so litres of e85 in the tank..switched to my petrol tune which from memory is slightly rich anyway and my afrs were only slightly leaner than on e85 and nothing to worry about ,no pinging..that's running closed loop as well.. -
Lol..just read Terry's comment..sounds like a winner!!

Lol, nah man in calm though spending 40 hours plus a week in Melbourne Traffic my life is a semi permanent state of losing it. One thing though I do think have dedicated Express lanes on our major freeways with maybe 20km higher speed limits could at least keep the dawdling dingbats out of the right hand lane.. It is definately not the answer to curbing the roadtoll though and I can just see discourteous people losing it as slower people try to merge in front of them..
-
Also why is it you guys always seem to be pushing for higher speed limits yet fail to recognize any of the other inherent dangers/problems with our system.. this reason alone I'm sure is why they won't raise speed limits..too many blokes wanna go faster and that is all

Nearly had an accident this morning..was I speeding, no, was I on my phone, no..why?? Because some asshole in a silver car thinks they don't need to put their headlights on when it's raining..was compulsory headlights in the survey...No..yet this happens nearly everyone it rains. It can be especially hard if my windows haven't fully demisted or are dirty. And no its not an old car with dodgey demisters its 2009 model. Its just that at a glance silver cars can be damn near impossible to see in these conditions

1..Nothing is fad anymore..truth is its all been done before so do what you like.. 2..Don't gutter rash your wheels and it won't matter what color they are will it.. 3...The beauty of white is you can put any colour wheel you like and it can look good. personally I like coloured wheels, So I say pick your favourite colour and roll with it. I like orange...

Driving faster can help a driver be more alert yes, I totally agree and may even utilize this tactic on occasion.. But it can also be more dangerous to the person driving slow so a happy medium has to be met..which is why we have speed limits...It would be nice to be able to trust all people consider their surroundings and drive accordingly but unfortunately too many people just cant think for themselves and others at the same time, many also don't fully understand the risks...these people need structure which is why we have road rules... I also feel that the excessive policing and scare tactics we have is possibly in effect making many people worse drivers, because they are now way to nervous to actually drive on the road they are becoming a hinderance to those that can confidently drive well.. I'm out there all day everyday, every second person is speeding or on the phone at some stage and those that aren't are driving too slow, not giving way etc etc..that said though I dont really see many accidents caused by it..I do see alot of pissed off people, but you get that when common courtesy (just like common sense) is that common.. So I do wonder if there is as many do-gooders as we all think sometimes...maybe the trouble is just to many do-gooders doing surveys and spruking their shitty opinions.. Often with little real world experience. Accidents will always happen and wrapping everybody in cotton wool isn't going to stop that...With the amount of cars out there on our roads everyday zooming around, Im surprised there isn't a whole lot more accidents...
-
I dont think they are trying to get a bias, they are just presenting a few facts then asking for opinions.. They even asked if we think people driving to slow is a bad thing, which it is. Cheers for the link anyway....the older i get the more I like giving my opinion, so I signed up for future surveys as well

"More than 67 per cent of pedestrians take risks such as not using a pedestrian crossing" Maybe its the pedestrians that need training....these people can't even walk properly yet we give them licenses
-
"Ways to reduce the road toll can include tougher penalties, public education campaigns, new technologies in cars, changes to law enforcement or changes in road design." does "Public education campaigns" mean teaching people to drive better or just sticking up a few more billboards for us to ignore...

Phillip Island Sprints 1St & 2Nd Sept With Piarc
ARTZ replied to billywhiz's topic in Archived Events
Best idea you had in a long time, your gunna want bigger rear tires though now.. -
Lol...im going for a cruise on Friday, your all welcome to come... Won't get home till Sunday though.
-
Wow Except for that bit where you hit full boost , im still a bit on top.. until. 6k when im out.. Be a funny race , as long we get traction down the same you should power ahead when I change gear. I would catchup when you change gear but I'd think you would stay well ahead.. I wasn't running out of legs on the straight at PI really, it was still pulling hard in 5th when I hit the braking zone..

Nice graph too btw...can u make another up with my 18psi run cause that's all I'm sitting on..wanna put an egt in before I run it harder
-
Yeah t67 definitely looks more balanced..that extra downlow torque I have will only equate to wheelspin anyway then drop off while your still pulling hard... I wanna t67 now. Is there any deca spots left..heading up to Goulburn I think, maybe I could make a pitstop. Would only be on pulp though..cbf dragging all that e85 along.
-
Odd that mine makes quite a bit more torque in the midrannge (550nm from memory).other than that the t67 is almost identical to the td06 until about 6300, where mine falls over the t67 just keeps pulling hard.. Race?
