Great day and a really great track...will def be headin down there again.

Sorry we lost you guys on way home, we pulled into the wrong servo dumb

oh....and i dont wanna see photos of my car.....going round corners at 45 degrees....damn suspension

Oh so the laps are timed and everything!? Sounded like a massively fun day, please let us know when the next $50 one is on!!! I'll be there.

Stolen Borrowed from the Supra Forum

1 with the poor 34 in it, and 1 with a little red beast(evil weevil) and a little white beast(too_ much_ boost) on the gas, I had to blow it up to 300% to see though.

Yes, Lou had a moment in his 34 but we managed to get him back on the road after spending most of the afternoon under the car for him as he didnt have any real mechanical aptitude.

After all the mucking around and we rebuilt his intercooler and front end with race tape and had him driving home, we got a call from him saying that he had blown another tyre on the way home and he didnt have a spare.

Given that a towy wanted $600 to come pic him up... Anthony one of Autosports regulars pulled over and lent him one of his semi's to get him home. Poor Lou couldnt turn a trick!

Hopefully we will see Lou at the next Autosports event at Wakefield Park on 9th May

that event above is infact the Wakefield Park event. The next Marulan event will be announced in the next week or so... still not sure about prices but i can assure you it wont ever be $50 again. That was a promo for the new facilities in which Autosports was happy to promote for them

    • Pete knows these cars well, he does my car too, if he was concerned about the traction arm length for your use he would have said so. Do you have adjustable bushes in that arm, maybe he got enough adjustment there (or maybe the bump steer was not material for your use of the car)
    • Hmm. Yes. I should have been clearer. 1000s for Haltech, for extra headroom. 725s for Nistune. You might even be OK with 640s, but if the possible power ends up much more than 300 rwkW you will run out of headroom on the 640s. That would probably be OK and a signal to not push it to that sort of power with Nistune anyway. At that level you probably do want to be thinking about engine protection functions. Oh, and all of that presumes 98 only, not E85. Well....the 1000s would allow you to run E85 at ~300rwkW territory, again, maybe sort of running out of headroom. Hard to tell with E85 - depends on the tuner as to how rich they like to set it up.
    • Yes.  The only scenario I can imagine when the answer isn't yes, is if you drive like there is highway patrol behind you at all times.  If your car currently runs, enjoy it and keep saving. Better costs more, keep saving until you can budget the better ECU. It's worth it.  Nope. Plenty of us making >300kw on unopened motors. Mine is unopened and makes about 350kw if I turn everything up, its fine (lots of caveats here, how the car will be used/abused, how long you expect the engine to last between rebuilds, how has the engine been maintained prior to coming into your ownership, etc etc).   
    • Sorry just wanting to clarify, at this power goal, which should I be going? Also, More info regarding suspension, the rear upper camber arms were used to get the camber back to i believe around -0.5 ~ -1 degree (@ Road and Race in Rydalmere), I forgot the exact figure, but ALOT less camber than what it came originally which was like -2.5degrees. Are the traction arms still recommended? The bilsteins from SydneyKid, they've got 400lb/in fronts & 275/in in the rear, revalved to his specs. Intercooler, I'm just having a look at some on Rakuten.jp and some other japanese sites. Might get something from back there, GReddy, Blitz or HPI, all crossflow. Looking at roughly $450-$500 AUD + shipping... Theres not many choices except that chinese branded Justjap unless you go for blitz return flow. Yeah, only downside with Haltech is the price ahhaha, so expensive, and with all the sensors if I go that route... $$$$$ yeesh. Are headstuds/gaskets needed for <300akw?
