ahh yeah not exactly busy with all the other stuff going on atm :(

I did pick up the wheels from craved the other day (they look swoit!) so I guess I better get some slicks sorted.

Its actually about 70% ready but that last 30% is going no-where atm

(bit slow lol)

yeah I need 2 because generally only 1 is working at a time :D

the car you went in (the production car) is great but lets face it.....it is missing 200kw compared to most cars around.

so Mark and I figured we may as well build something a bit quicker for fun. The production car is the serious one though and has the best of everything it can - this car on the other hand has cheap everything :)

it's likely to be 12 months before it's finished - our old work location is no longer available and my house is 9 months away - so stay tuned for this time next year :)

well....time to dust off this thread. Beleive it or not, the car has finally emerged from storage and will be worked on again in probably 3 months.

proper wheel is on the front, not the rear (don't fit yet after all the subframe mods, it is seriosuly low). And I mean the car not the trailer, where the right wheels are on the back not the front. Did grog make that last sentence make less sense?

fortunately for me it is moving to melbourne so I won't be getting my hands dirty for a while.

haha stable....that's exactly what i need to store all the cars :rofl:

lol michael as if you don't have 2 projects on the go yourself :P when is that race car going to be back on the track btw, was a shame not to see it at the national sprints at morgan park last month

damo, honestly can't remember. but they are a cheap forged one, originally bronze but we had Craved powercoat them white. they look excellent, hopefully they will be strong enough.....

BTW this bloody car better be seconds quicker than the production car. otherwise I'll burn the f**ker to the ground.

I know the feeling well Duncan!

I got about 8 on the go!

Half are mine the other half belong to everyone else!

Sad part is I have nothing to drive, I'm resorting to buying something else to drive!

Buy an evo :P

nice brakes on the front but what happened to the calipers?

    • How f**ked am i? what would happen if i leave the magnet inside there? 
    • I'll update you guys when i get home from work, im going to try to fish it out.  I just realized that i can't even drop the oil pan. The whole front diff and axles are connected to the oil pan... is it even possible to drop the oil pan without taking out the motor?  
    • So recently at the track had experienced a loss of throttle after a period of WOT after installing the emtron ecu, recently did some logging to troubleshoot the issue and found the ECU was cutting due to a low oil pressure issue. Going over the log can see that while accelerating at 4k rpm will see 100 PSI of pressure and holding steady at that level until getting off the throttle which then after can see as low as 25 PSI at 3-4k rpm and will recover back to a normal level after that.   Wondering if anyone has an idea what could be the cause as it just feels abit strange and i dont feel like it could be a sensor issues just due to it clearly sitting at a good pressure until off throttle, in the attached can see a 3rd and 4th gear pull but can even perform great through 3 and 4 gears of WOT but still once off throttle and getting back on it will see pressure drop.
    • There are a few different ways of doing it. I'm currently running two 1000cc pre-TB nozzles and PWM the pump for control. I'll be moving over to a constant pressure system and direct port. I'll run the pump off a regular relay, have it cycle on roughly 5psi before I start injecting to build pressure and then PWM a WMI solenoid (It's basically an injector that can take a lot of pressure and not corrode with water and meth.) The solenoid feeds the 6 direct port ~200cc nozzles. I'll also keep one ~250cc pre-TB nozzle to help keep IAT's in check.  Safety will be a little different as well. I used to use a pressure switch but will be moving over to a pressure sensor between my solenoid and nozzles. I'll trigger my solenoid and if I don't see specific pressure within a specific timeframe (e.g 100psi within a second, 175psi within 2 seconds), I kill it and revert back to non WMI maps the same way I did it before with 4D in Haltech. I was just figuring out the timers in my ecu last night. They made that a little more complicated than I would have liked... I wish Haltech offered a larger set of logic/math functions like other ecu's do. I can't do very much with just AND's and OR's.  I've been asked to do fuel/ignition mapping on a medium bore engine at work in May (192L V16). Being the only programmer in my region and having went and opened my mouth about knowing the ins and outs of fuel/ignition mapping, I have now been deemed an expert. Fun fun. The entirety of the logic and algorithms are programmed in C on a PLC. As I spend more time figuring it all out, I like what I see and eventually I may consider doing the same as a pet project to replace my ecu.   
    • This would be interesting, would you feed it via a 2nd row of injectors? Or just usual WMI nozzles?
