Racing in my first real grid race on saturday....bit nervous about it but looking forward to it!!

So excited for you mate, sadly i will not be able to make it as i have to work :P . It is a piss poor excuse i know but i will be out on the track with you soon i hope.

I am interested to see your thoughts on the shift light set up i am in the market for one.

Charles!

Hows it going mate?

So far so good!

I had Clappa fit it this arvo, he made it look very easy!!!

the default setting goes off at 1k, 2k, 3k, 4k - all the green lights

then 5k is organise, 6k orange and 7k is red.

I drove home from clappas and gave it a hit here and there, works well.

it also picks up theat if your crusing at a certain rpm (say 2.5k rpm) on the freeway for a couple of mins, it actually dims the lights.

So big ups to Clappa for helping me out once again!! infact, I think him and Ando have done the most work on my car haha

sorry to hear that :P things were going well. still I'd rather be building a 4 cylinder MX5 donk than a straight 6 RB... :D

hopefully it will be back together better than before. :laugh: any word on what made it die?

    • 95 is just a scam outright. 98 is the real "premium" with all the best detergents and other additive packages, and at least historically, used to be more dense also. 95 is just 91 bargain basement shit with a little extra octane rating. Of course, there's 91 and there's 91 also. I always (back in the 90s early 2000s) refused to put fuel in from supermarket related fuel chains on the basis that it was nasty half arsed shit imported from Indonesia. Nowadays, I suspect that there is little difference between the nasty half-arsed shit brought in by the "bargain" chains and the nasty half-arsed shit brought in by the big brands, given that most of it is coming from the same SEAsian refineries. Anyway - if there's still anything to that logic, then it would apply to 95 also. 98 is only made in decent refineries and, as I said, is usually the "premium" fuel, both in terms of octane rating and "use this because it's good for your engine because it's got the unicorn jizz in it!".
    • Yeah since those first 2 replies I actually went and put some 98 in it and tbf it's already doing much better than the 95 (which is weird and makes my inner tinfoil hat wearer think the 95 was a crap batch), getting 8ish around town. Again, wonder if it takes a while to stabilize if the fuel is changed a couple of times. I swear cars used to just either run "well" or "s**t* in my 20s, none of this fuel optimisation business haha 
    • Any number of different ways. Have the coils draw sufficient current to provide contact wetting. Use different contacts in the switch, either by material or design, better suited to the low current drawn by a relay coil. Etc.
    • Hmm, how does the R34 manage to have headlight relays then without getting excessive carbon buildup on the headlight switch contacts?
    • Not R7R. Meant to type R&R, obviously enough.
