Howd the silvia do around the island Bris?

Its probably line ball with my car. I have more top end, but i now understand how you are so quick in your car. The power delivery of these things is such that you just pick up the throttle wherever you want and you get good drive out of corners. My RB20 you have to be picking up the throttle 20mtrs before you want boost :banana:

The little S13 was mighty impressive, it was onoly running 1bar and street tyres...and felt damn good. I think you need to get a T518Z for your car and a Power Fc while you are at it. The thing is as responsive as, not sure if it woudl lose much at all over std as i cant recall ever having driven a std turbo S13.

But hard to tell when you are out there by yourself, first few laps it was able to breeze by a good half dozen cars so assume it was in the 1:58-2:02 range?!?!? Either way, its a great drive. The brakes were great, about the best car i have driven with regards to brakes! And the scary thing is the pads he was running are worth more then the caliper and rotor upgrade ! Lucky S13 bastards :D

Lol BB...flamage AND sideways....top shot :D

Is there another photographer that you know of that was there on the day? I had a look thru SDPICS and I couldn't see the one you posted above.

Yeah, apparently this guy was there:

Luke at [email protected] - he sent me 5 other shots that were really good. I'm getting them in hi-res (for a price :banana: )

whats this SDPICS thing? site? link?

hey thats cool, what system/datalogger do you use to get that?

The Performance Box is alway a good option. Seems to be a lot cheaper than anything ellse.

I use the drift box which is the same abart from the ability to measure sidways angle.

Performance Box

thanks adz,

Still a bit out of my pricerange though considering I'm not that into it..

since im such a tightarse.. we tested out RaceChrono (free) @ PI and worked really well. Just need a 5hz GPS and will be even better

Noticed that performance box uses a 10hz gps..thats pretty awesome.

Best thing about the weekend was seeing Jason Bright there helping out the guys in karts and Formula Fords. So worked out to be the perfect opportunity to ask if he could sign his old HRT seat that i have in my car :cheers: Champion guy! SO thankful and , of course thanks to Jack for running into town and grabbing me the marker pen :)

yes thank god for that! now you can quit busting my balls about the Glenn Seton seat! a win for everyone. :cheers:

You'd think so Ant but I reckon sideways + flamage = poo'd ya pants & off the gas

Hahahahaha :teehee:

You are nearly right, I kicked the clutch and struck a pose

You even had your window down...why didn't you stick your arm out drift style?

Hey guys a few quick questions for you guys that know how this event works (ive read the supp regs and just want to confirm some things);

Does the saturday just have numbered groups doing 15min sessions all day?

How does Sunday run? Same as Saturday?

Also is there anywhere good to stay near the track? Ive found a few caravan parks like the one at shepparton but if there's one you guys recommend that would be good

The plan is for the april one

Thanks

anyone know of any pro photographers that were there on the saturday? keen to get some shots of the little silvia. I had a look at sdimages but it seems they only do sunday.

BB you bastard, always gotta out do me the day after hey. haha, Well done.

Well done mate your FLYYYYING....

Its gonna get tough now to get that extra second or 2...

You've got a half cage now so no excuse for turn 1, 200+km/h for you!!!!

And flat through hayshed too....

Great result...

Just saw the results....seems they've cleared up a lot of the mis-listing of times that they posted up on Sun but they still list a DNF for me even though I finished every session.....and no 49/50 listed either :) Never mind theres my incentive to pull my thumb outta you know where :(

Will try and get some vids up in the next day or so :blink:

    • My idle is set at 950rpm though - Moving the timing around 20 degrees is not really what I'd call a calm idle. That said... neither is chop, by definition. The LS ECU likes to adjust timing to hold idle as opposed to air. It'd work, but generally speaking there'd be a discrepancy in the base idle and the IACV would want to move the timing around anyway to maintain said idle. I think I'm just going to keep the timing steady anyway. Preserve my engine mounts.  My aircon is now officially regassed. As the guy was reversing I noticed my reverse lights do not operate, along with my reverse cam. This is a bit distressing, because 100% of guides talk about which wire to connect to backup cams as "the goes with the [other color] wire". Often when doing conversions. Unfortunately the R34 colour wires aren't documented Unfortunately I had a T56 Magnum gearbox with it's reverse switch, which also isn't documented. Unfortunately there's definitely not documentation for people with both of these in the one car. Unfortunately I forgot. After many hours of this, I have a reverse cam and reverse lights again. The wire going through the trans tunnel to the reverse switch had broken. Upon inspection, it looks like this one wire had about 7 spade terminals and extensions in it.. for reasons I cannot possibly comprehend. I also spent the 750 hours required to clean up the wiring behind my head unit which now looks like this: This is a monumental improvement relative to what used to be there WRT triple gauges, head unit, traction control, wideband controller, and whatever the f**k OEM stuff still exists there in various states of connectivity/needed. Next step is to check in at the Exhaust shop to see/confirm how much clearance I have, to decide what mid mufflers or 'resonators' (which are just straight through, narrower mufflers) I can add and hopefully cut out a lot of exhaust leaks, pinhole, v-band or otherwise. But first step will be to 'take a look' before the next step.
    • Fark the AFM card and Nistune, Haltech Nexus S3, DBW, cruise control, flex fuel, dis dat.  
    • It's most likely the bolt/bush where the cover bolts back wore and allowed cover to move forward.
    • Still haven't put the injectors and R35 AFM in so we can tune the bloody thing for the HG highflow it got mid last year! I think I can forecast the upgrade path to a bigger twin scroll, external gate, Haltech, flex setup, Samsonas, dis dat, etc will be .... a while away!
    • Should have taken that opportunity to slot in a twin scroll turbo setup. Maybe next time.
