I really don't understand you people.

You's sit and whinge behind your computer screen that there's not enough meetings/gatherings excetra, but I've got two events on the go at the moment, and only three people have responded to both.

If you's really want to get this thing happening, get off your arses and attend some meetings.

NOthing's going to be handed to you on a silver platter.

I've spent a lot of time organising the drive in movies and I've also spent alot of my own personal time liaising with the owners of the carpark trying to get us a place to meet.

If no one turns up to these events that I'm organising, I'm really going to give up and not bother with this anymore.

I can only agree with Slip. Once the club is up and running we may be able to get more interest, commitment and team work from people. The Sprint days are a prime example. Many clubs have championships for events (which can include all kinds of things, like sprints, drags, show and shine, cruise, and general attendance). So far the count at any event mentioned in the events forum here has been fairly low to non-existant. I know its early days still, and I know people have very good reasons, but I tend to think until the club becomes official and there is a structure things won't change much.

That aside, stay positive about this. We have a good variety of events happening (official or not) and it should cater for all types and interests in this club. I'd love to see more people at the events, but it's up to each individual to get involved. The only thing I can say is don't be backward in coming forward. As NismoGirl has said, get off your butts and come along. There is more enjoyment to owning a performance car than you may imagine.

Erin,

Although we have had our disagreements in the past, I can honestly say that your efforts are always noted and appreciated by most people who post in the qld section.

Dont get disheartened and keep up the good work...

Smooth.

PS- i see now there are more than 3 posts in those threads so its all good. :)

      Hypergear Turbochargers and High flow Services Development thread

      By hypergear · Posted

      Updating results following our SR20det project. Data collected form improves future turbocharger making and high flowing services. So far differences between G and GT series turbine wheels, we are in the process of making a new turbine, the aim is for better mid top range flow without gain too much lag.  Result is back to back comparison of G25-660 and GTX2867 spec turbochargers on the same car, nothing changed apart from turbocharger. Both tuned to knock limit from pump 98 fuel (US Ron93). GTX2867 was about 400RPM more responsive making 255rwkws while G25-660 made 17 extra Kws with wider spread of torque after 4500RPM finishing off at 272rwkws.

      Swapped rb25de neo how to get the gear indication on the dash to work

      By romel · Posted

      @GTSBoy i tried to jumper the wires and got the steering wheel light to come on which is right under the gear indication but that still doesnt come on.  Can it be an issue with my cluster?

      Given that you have seen the dash indicator work briefly, then it would seem like you have a simple wiring problem. What happens when you simply jumper the wires on the "steering wheel switch"?

      The Ls1 R33 Of Fury

      By MBS206 · Posted

      Yesterday's day in review: All the wiring to the lights up the front how I want it, is ran, terminated, and all to length. The only lighting up front I haven't finished is the side indicators, as I need to get to the partly cutup factory loom, and find the plugs for them. Interesting note, the side indicators use the exact same plug that's in the doors for something else that I don't remember what it is... So that plug better be careful...   Power steering solenoid, on the R33 is variable, and from memory PWM. The Ford's control from the docs I have so far, is it's just a on or off control. So I'm not sure it's what I want, and in any case, power steering running, but at its heaviest (solenoid off) is likely what I'll want anyway, so I'm not yet touching it at all. All the wiring I can complete so far, is done. There are 3 wires I need to make a plug for at the ECU, and these are just for the vehicle speed sensor, of which I need to get a T5 from an AU, so I can use its output that has the speed sensor on it. (My car doesn't have ABS, otherwise I'd set it up to use one of the ring gears on that). I need to buy new headlight globes and front parker globes, otherwise I could show photos of lights working. Current fuel lines in and out on this motor are "5/16". I'll order hardline, and some AN fittings for that, and I just need to 100% check fuel line size at the tank end, to get the ends for it. I'm also looking at a few options for the banjo bolts to AN fittings for the power steering rack. I'll pull the reservoir off the Barras PS pump. There's an off the shelf fitting for that pump for a -10 AN feed, and it'll use a 16mm to dash -6 an outlet to feed the rack. I'll be making my own power steering reservoir, I'm going through the thought process at the moment of how I'll run the baffles, and I need to research another idea for it too.

      Coc or nox of nissan skyline

      Two inlet runners changes the engines characteristics requiring less fuel to make torque at different points in the rev range. The smaller diameter inlet runners on the DET increases air flow speed, which improves atomisation of fuel, particularly in low load/idle for better burn, and in specific areas of the engine, (areas you would use when driving normally) increases the efficiency. All of those items change how efficient the engine is at different speeds. The changes on the neo help slightly to improve emissions where it matters. The overall improvements won't be the likes of going from an engine built in the 70s to an engine built in the 2000s, it's just a small step. But still leaves it the RB with the best chance of improvement.   As for your comment about the whole using a cat to not need to worry about those gases. Two things, no system is 100% perfect. It won't eliminate everything. So reduce the quantity you put into it, you still reduce the output. Two, make that system do less work, and it's likely to survive a little bit longer. Funnily enough to, one trick employed to get cats up to temp, AND to drastically reduce emissions before they get up to temp, is to reduce ignition timing.
