I can't believe that I broke F*#king exhaust manifold studs at EC on Thursday... and as a result won't have a car for tomorrow... Anyone want to lend me theres? pete... what is the 31 doing?

One PISSED camper.:D :D ;):D :D

Wow what a great day ! Totally different to what I was expecting and turned out to be a good experience (even when sitting on the sideline).

Unfortunately the 127 pictures that i took weren't the best because i only have 3x Optical Zoom.

They can be view at http://skylines.pnc.com.au

(at the bottom).

Like Ben said - what a great day ! Big pat on the back to Pete (fatz) bloody good day mate.

Spewing chunks that I didn't get to drive today.....Major chunks.

Last time I came to EC track day, I couldn't run then either, which again, pissed me off even more..... Damn moddified cars.....

For those interested - I thought I had fouled plugs cause I was stalling, farked idle, no power etc on the way up to the creek - but I limped in..... ( Background: had new fuel pressure reg fitted during the week , plus moved the BOV to plumb back position, and new ECU tune...) Got home ready to take the plugs out to check the damage, found small oils splotches in the engine bay - all over the place - like small amounts of oil was being sprayed everywhere - I was al ready to take all the plugs out to see if I could reserect anything - Anyhow , I think what happened is that there is either (a) Too much oil being shot thru from the turbo and/or (B) there is an intercooler pipe leak somewhere.... Hopefully not too serious....

Next time Ii am bringing a hire car are backup ..... Fark Fark and double fark !!!

Pics and Videos posted soon !!!

Play of the day goes to Duncan , who on a $money$ lap came a bit unstuck and collected a hat ! I got evidence bud !! he he

Apart from my misfortune - a bloody top day. Bring on the next one.

(Damn sunburnt tho)...

Cheers !!!

Oh..man...sprung again...twice in 4 days!

That was a top day, we have to make it a regular event.

For once I'm happy that photos don't tell the whole story!

As for that whitches hat, I think I just took the apex a tiny bit too close :( pretty sure it was a good lap apart from that small prob!

    • AFM looks to be a z32 The injectors maybe old Nismo 555cc The turbo tag when looked up seems to be a gt2871 , imagine it would have the bigger rear housing .82 all look like the mid 00's mods when he started building it up. Vac hose seems right but would need to see a diagram. Great work going up there and sorting it out, be a good club car for someone wanting a good reliable rig.  I know I would like to have it but no space and too many other race cars at the moment.
    • Heys guys I got a r32 gtst speedo is out by 10kph seems the faster I go the more it be out  just seeing if anyone else had to problem and knows how to fix it 
    • I can't agree. If we hadn't all been brought up with the noise caused by the inefficiency of an ICE, no-one would actually ask for all that. An EV is like any other car, it just goes better. 
    • 2 more things I have to work out Easy one first...can anyone describe how to pull the fuel pump and sender from a 33? I can feel there is some sort of mount and clips but don't have a manual and don't know the trick......if not I'll spend some quality time in the boot witha lighter tomorrow. Second question is harder.  He had changed the upper plenum to a plazmaman but clearly got to a point with the vacuum hoses where he said "f**k it, I'm going inside for a beer" and never came back to that job because it was a mess. Am I right to think that I need: 1. Pre throttle (16mm nipple on inlet) to AAC's main 20mm fitting as the main pre throttle feed 2. ACC has a second 13m outlet joined to that 20mm fitting which I think is the pre throttle air supply for the cold start valve? 3. Cold start valve's outlet fitting then goes to Plenum (to bypass throttle?) There is some adapter on the back of the ACC with 2 fittings (13mm and 10mm), do I run the 10mm through a 1 way valve to the Brake Booster (4) and the 13mm back to a 13mm nipple on the Plenum as the Idle control (5)? 6. Run a 6mm vacuum line from the Turbosmart BOV to the Plenum? 7. Run a 5mm vacuum line from the Fuel Pressure Reg to the Plenum? 8. Run a 5mm vacuum line from the Turbosmart Boost controller to the Plenum? (Wastegate already has a pre turbo pressure source running to the solenoid then the wastegate on the other side of the bay)  Any help appreciated, the GTR is quite different setup and while the Stagea also has FFP it is different again. (And no Dose, I'm not pissing it all off and putting a ethrottle on it....)
    • OK, onto some questions to try and speed up the process a little. Does anyone know what core this Garret is? I know it is a high flowed standard turbo but nothing else about it. Tag says OK 0169J - 446179-5032 Same question for the injectors, I don't know what they flow and ideally can work it out before it hits the dyno, they are a mustard yellow side feed
