Timing is everything... I zipped right up behind Col and his buddies coming onto the motorway heading for the drags :P

Got a little bit of video uploading now ... I wish people wouldn't stick their fat heads right infront of the camera. I couldn't get all the times from the left lane. :)

Anyway was a good arvo shame about your rear tyres Col that must of been frustrating.

Some Pics while I upload video.

What a downer way to end a fun evening, One of the heavy hitters in a rail failed to open the chute and, whilst it hasnt been confirmed it was rumored that it was a fatality. They closed the meeting early and we all left feeling a little humble.

but anyhooos, We had a blast until then. The blinged out bionic wheelchair ran a best of 14.1 and a best speed of 100.8 mph. Not a bad base to build a 12 second car from. Ben is hooked, couldnt get the grin off his face. His terminals indicate that when he learns to pedal the line properly hes gonna be quick. Col performed exactly to my prediction. TOOOO MUCH HORSEPOWER.LOL His terminals indicate that he should run low 12 or even 11s but until he gets it sorted hes just darn good entertainment. Sir skyline had similar issues, methinx there might be some cars wearing drag gumballs before the 17th rolls around.

Markimac if you dont get that gtr out there next time then you deserve every bit of shit fellow liners throw at you. That was pathetic. To make it worse you even went and parked beside me after that run. I just pretended i didnt know you,. hahahahahaha.

Great fun folks. be at the next one and join in.

      RB20DET lean on cold start

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      You shouldn't need to massively fatten up the mixtures for cold conditions. For one thing - 0°C is not that cold. For another, the Haltech will be using the IAT sensor to tell it how dense the air air, and calculate the correct amount of fuelling. Then the cold start enrichment is added as a % on top of that, so it should scale with the main fuelling. You might also doubt the IAT sensor at this time. You're not using one from an RB26 are you? Using a nice Bosch sensor or similar? Happens. Some wideband units take great pleasure in killing their sensors. Put another wideband in the tailpipe and compare. Or just swap the sensor to a brand new one and see.

      RB20DET lean on cold start

      By MidnightR32 · Posted

      Oh, my misunderstand. When the car was running, it sounded ok, but if I gave it any gas it wanted to die but caught itself afterwards. It's very different from how it was a couple months ago when it was warmer outside. The logs show that the AFRs are better during, what I assume, is warmup enrichment. Because it's cold, and air is more dense, should I work on the enrichment bit?

      Rb20e and RB20DET parts

      By A31Skyline · Posted

      yess of course im not using 2nd hand parts from my spare engine, but the place where i live is hard to find parts for the RB20DET ,but for the RB20E is everywhere including new ones and a lot cheaper ,because for the RB20DET you have to order it overseas to get one and it cost a lot of money 3x the price to be exact. so i ask this topic because if i can use the new ones but for RB20E is it compatible or not. if not im screwed haha, not totally screwed but i have to save a lot of money first before i can begin repairing my engine, thanks for the information before.

      Unless my sensor just died, was only a couple months old, I strongly believe it didn't. How can I test it? I never mentioned it being 20:1+?

      Well, you wouldn't use 2nd hand bearings out of another engine anyway....so just buying the proper bearings is obviously what you're going to do. The crankshaft would be common. The conrods might be common. There is essentially nothing else you would be able to use.
