Mostly cosmetic, bit now we are running E85 unrestricted, have to fit new injectors, surge tank etc as well as change it all over to Tarmac. Bodywork is done on it, suspension has been changed. plus it needs a tune too now :-(

The Longford Revival Festival site is coming along well... even after all the rain last week the grounds are good and the Flying Mile nice and clean now... ready for some max speed runs from the racers and exotics both old and new!!

Yeh don't care about that since I can't go. More importantly whats the go with Day 2?

Looking forward to the Longford Festival, should be a great lead up to targa week.

Massive thanks to Stuart for getting the Radcam's down to us the night before the safari, pretty sure you must have raced down there as soon as we messaged you :-)

I'm arriving in Lonnie saturday. Will have the customary piss up at the Olde Tudor saturday arv/evening.... and this time, Dicky Johnson is joining us :)

we finally have a good 999 car.... eddie decided using other people's crap was too hard so he purchased quite a nice Emo 8, all prepped up :)

Hopefully the top of Rossarden has been washed away. I shit myself going over there!! LOL

I'm on the ferry tonight ready to get into it.

Well I haven't been out yet for a look, but I saw on the news last week the train bridge you pass under at the end of Rossarden stage just before turning back on the highway (where every one services) and the water was up to the bottom of that bridge!

    • 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?
