Hey Mattman

Of course you can come to take some pics. HAHA and yes I know who you are :)

Did you want to come Neil? The Radical is welcome as it is really not an open wheeler ( no exposed wheels )

I instruct at the Radical days, so if you would like to come out and play you are most welcome to. Has it got a passenger seat so I can come for a ride ??

After todays effort my old "slow" GTR should be able to make it.

We didnt break anything to major, just needs some AWD back and a few new master cylinders.

Shame you missed today at wakefield John.

Was kinda an interesting day.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Got your PM's, but for some reason I have never been able to reply tp them :)

Still spots left. Ring the office monday-friday 9.00am-5.00pm (02) 9829 5399

Cost is per person, not per car.

Hope to see you next weekend :)

I would have loved to John but I need the car corner weighted and aligned which didn't happen last Saturday unfortunately.

Sorry no passenger seat in a Prosport mate. My steering wheel is pushed more to the left than an SR3.

Have a merry christmas John and don't work to hard.

Neil.

any good places to hire a trailer? ryde area or penrith area?

Buddy,,,hiring a trailer is a hit and miss affair,,,most of them are crap. No brakes,,no tie down points ect.

Good luck is all I can offer you,,,then again it's only at Oran Park so if you it take slow you should be alright.

Neil.

Oh Matt you where there :) I couldnt see you anywhere! wanted to say Hi :down:

Was funny seeing Luffy get into Frickers new Radical :) And that little BSM car was hilarious :laughing-smiley-014:

yeah that starlet looks tough!!!

what times was it doing?

The starlet was funny as!!! Not sure the times it was doing the thing was breaking traction all over the place :( Lofty was having a ball!

Yeah that starlet was damn quick, as you would expect from basically a full on race car setup...

It was a good day, my first track event ever and I was getting 55.8 (handtimed) on end of their life nangkangs, they were mushy by the end of each run... Damn I flogged them...

A great day had by all. Thankyou to those who turned up :banana: Lofty in the starlet was doing 47's. Not bad for a car that is only 1800cc, has a restictor on the turbo and had yokohama controlled semi's on all fours that were 3 years old. It was the cars very first run, so will be faster by the time it rolls out for its first race meeting in late January.

For those of you that don't know it is built to Improved Production Car regs ( IPRA )

Mattman, your photo's are awesome as usual :)

John, when the starlet is all sorted, xwhat times u think it can do? Cause that's flying already!!! And what motor is in it? So lofty not racing the 32 in 09?

    • I’d love to find some where that can recover the dashes to look brand new and original. Mine has a very slight bubble, nothing compared to some I’ve seen though 
    • $170K. I asked one of the guys there as a joke if that price was just for the passenger seat as it was where the price sheet was... he tried really hard to crack a smile 😄 He also mentioned that every single part of the car was inspected and either restored or replaced with a new or as new part, or made from scratch. The interior was incredible, every inch like a new car.
    • Time for a modernisation, throw out the AFM, stock O2s, ECU into the e-waste bin. Rip out the cable throttle, IACV, pedal, etc. into the scrap metal bin. DBW, e-throttle, modern ECU, CANbus wideband, and the thing will drive better than when it left the factory.
    • I agree, don't go trusting those trims. As I said, first step is to put the logger away, and do the basics in diagnosis.   I spend plenty of time with data loggers. I also spend plenty of time teaching "technicians" why they need to stop using their data loggers, and learn real diagnostics.   The amount of data logs I play with would probably blow most people away. I don't just use it to diagnose. I log raw CAN data too, as a nice chunk of my job is reverse engineering what automotive manufacturers are doing.
    • I'm aware, but unless you're actually seeing the voltage the ECU is seeing and you're able to verify the sensors are actually working I find it hard to just trust STFT/LTFT. I will say, logging the ECU comes naturally to me because it's one of the lowest effort methods of diagnosis and I do similar things in my day job all the time. Staring at 20+ charts looking for something that isn't quite right isn't for everyone. NDS1 allows you to log almost everything so that's normally what I do and then sort out the data later.
