:P For the price, I think zoom's a bit of a dream hehe

God, I think the battery would last 10 seconds with an LCD haha. As NISMO told me, he exhausted a set of normal batteries just setting up the camera and playing around with it for the first time!!

They are pretty much a track-only useful tool (and there they function fine... as marketed I suppose). But I really think they should mention the whole can't-see-in-the-dark thing though, that was a big shock. Lame.

As far as batteries go, don't be too worried...I didn't even change them at canberra, and took heaps of video footage. I did have a spare set, but didn't use them.What i did however, was buy 4 rechargeable energizer batteries and a recharger...

I believe at wakefield i will go through more batteries, as the sessions are longer..And may also run out of room on the 2gb card. But for people with laptops, just take it with you, and empty the card every 2 sessions or so...

That's really surprising... I also bought Energizer rechargables and a charger specifically for it, they were the 1.2V ones, since rechargables don't come in 1.5V (which is what the camera is designed for). When I ran the rechargables in it, I couldn't get more than a minute or so before it would show low battery and simply shut down. A friend explained about how some things need 1.5 no matter what, and sure enough the lithiums I got have been going strong.. that's weird!!

      RB25 S2 Idles but doesn't want to rev

      By Trilbyte · Posted

      No intention of driving the car the way it's set up now, just wanting to make sure I haven't made any mistakes along the way so that the tune can go smoothly, I don't want to waste anyone's time with stupid issues. And of course I intend to get it towed to the dyno in a completed state 😅 I have the base fuel pressure with the vacuum disconnected set at about 40psi, which I believe is at least relatively close to stock fuel pressure, maybe I'll have a fiddle with the reg and see what happens. For all I know I could be wasting my time with this and I should just plumb it in and see what the tuner reckons. I just find it a bit strange that it seems to be under so much load just free revving, but maybe that's just a result of the turbo slowing down the exhaust gasses and making a restriction in the flow, with no boost to compensate.

      The boy just hit up google translate and it worked a treat, he said step one was "please urinate with precision and elegance", he then sent me the correct translation  I get some new loctite for the small fixtures tomorrow and get some "dort" going after that 🤣

      Right, so is the fuel pressure the same as it was previously? If not, well, it's not going to work well. I can understand the theory I assume you are going for, which is: "Run it N/A, and if I have the original AFM, and same amount of fuel and intake air as previously, the fact there's a turbo in my exhaust should still make it run" Which it... might? Provided you don't actually change how much air or fuel is going into the car.. or getting out. But if you have changed that, all bets are off. What is the purpose to even have the car run this way? To get it to a tuner? And if the goal is to limp it to a tuner, you're still going to what - plumb up a whole intercooler system and new intake in the parking lot out front before your tune......?

      Haha yea it's a bit of a weird setup at the moment, just wanted to make sure I sorted out any headaches before dyno day. At the moment I've changed the exhaust manifold, turbo and downpipe, 460lph fuel pump and rising rate reg as well as the previously mentioned headstuds and gasket. The nistune was already mapped for the car as it was and drove around for a few months no worries. The plan is to run flex fuel hence the big pump, which I've wired direct to the battery through a relay to avoid voltage issues.

      Um. Was the ECU the same as the one previously there? I know R33's needed R32 GTST ECU's or other tomfoolery to run Nistune. This is such a wild setup. Most people would plumb in the turbo then not drive the car (i.e tow it to a tuner). What's actually changed since it last ran?
