Wanted: Someone With A Large Pad In Their Backyard..


Recommended Posts

Looking for a new location for our annual Boxing Day burnouts, if anyone has a concrete pad or some such area that they would like to donate for a day.. it would be greatly appreciated!

If an appropriate location with enough space is found, I would like to extend the invite to SAUWA peoples!

Prefer NOR (as it's near our workshop incase I break anything :)).

Will my neighbours lawn work for you?

lol this is a burnout day, not a lawnjob day.. but if you really don't like your neighbours we can talk later :)

Might be good if someone has access / owns a factory :blink:

Indeed, someone with a factory/workshop with a big carpark they don't mind getting covered in rubber would be ideal!

ha ha i would say i could prob get a place down in SOR but might not be big egough but then agian 2 far for you lol

How far south? :)

To give you an idea, this is the sort of space we were dealing with last year..

What are your fluid temps doing at the end of all of that?

Long story but someone who wasn't affliated with us locked the gate on their way out.. luckily someone knew someone who was a security guard in the area who could let us out, otherwise it was going to be F250 through the gates lol

hey bubba,

i may have moved out but, dad still lives there and has both houses now,

ill have a chat to him and see what he reckons

o fkn sweet, let me know dude coz that would be fkn awesome! obviously there'd be a bottle of something in it for him, and I'd expect to see you attending aswell :D

Hell, if he's happy with a big turnout then we could charge like $10 each or something just to make it worthwhile dealing with a bunch of hoons for the day ;)

Bubba - i reckon should of gone with the F250 in the 1st place :(

LOL that was my call too.. unfortunately the guy who owns the F250 wasn't so keen once we found out we could get keys ;)

    • Behrman is great quality stuff. My 34 has some serious clouding as well but I’m too nervous to try and replace the glass myself so I haven’t bought them yet. 
    • This might be true if you live in NZ but I can't see how this could be true for us locals here.  I've found the customer support for Haltech to be absolutely amazing. I've turned up to Haltech and spent entire days with their tech support guys, they've even helped me with wiring dramas that had nothing to do with their products.  They have the best customer support of any company I've dealt with, I can't imagine how my experiences with them could possibly be any better.
    • If you want to do a single throttle body conversion easily, you won't need to pull anything apart. Take the linkage from your throttle off the linkage controlling the ITBs. Now open the ITBs wide open, and lock the linkages in said position. Now add a single throttle body onto the front of your inlet plenum. No it's not ideal for the last nth of a kw, but it'll be a lot better than what you're already trying to do...   PS, ITBs can be so damn hard to tune from, because roughly 20% movement in a throttle body equates to a change in roughly 80% of its flow (Hence power). When you add up the flow limitations of those small throttle bodys, it is a LOT higher than that of a single large throttle. Hence, TPS is very very sensitive with them, and you do a LOT of work with sensor fusion, and some Maths behind the scenes to make those blends nice, and be smooth.
    • Yep, when Haltech purchased Adaptronic, and all of the Adaptronic staff, including Andy went with it, it took Haltech to the next level. Haltech wanted Adaptronic as they wanted things like Andy's fuel models, and some other IP, AND they wanted Andy too as he is brilliant! Andy has spoken about the incompatibilities between the old 1500 stuff vs Nexxus, and it totally makes sense. It's not JUST software that is different, there is huge changes in the underlying hardware too. It's why Haltech has had soooo many changes in the last couple of years, in terms of Hardware, and Software, and why it has become so damn Amazing. Why do you think guys like Rob Dahm with his quad rotor, went from running Adaptronic's to running Haltechs? Andy. Pretty much, Haltech these days, is Adaptronic, but with more funds behind it, and more staff, and hence Andy's visions, and visions of other people that he helps shape their great visions, into amazing new products. All the new Nexxus gear, whole new software for it, new and better dashboards, the apps that will run on headunits and NOT be slow to respond! I understand people being burnt in the past, but if you're ragging on a company, about products and issues from many years ago, it's more a reflection on yourself, not looking or keeping up with new stuff. In which case, those people should be going back to PowerFC and Nistunes as the ECU's to rave on about...
