Spotted Troy in Tuggers today

During the day around 1pm?

Spotted myself rear-ending some guy in his white commodore wagon this afternoon.....he who hesitates is lost, and I must say I can't stand it when someone hesitates at a roundabout. Not to say I wasn't in the wrong, but when someone starts to move forward when there's a break they should follow through on it instead of hitting the brakes.

On that note, WTB front bumper and *maybe* reo for R33.

Front bar is rooted, reo is bashed in (cracked along centre screw...probably just bend back), and bonnet took a hit and arched a little - I just sat on it and thumped it a few times and she looks ok apart from the dint where the impact was lol

Also hoping I haven't damaged the cooler or piping...can't f**king tell thanks to MAP sensor! :(

Spotted Jimmy driving his banana down Athlon Drive this afternoon.

I think you'll find it's a Banana GTT thanks Pete :D

That sucks Troy, goodluck with it.

Stooopid Comodore loonies!

Spotted the damage I've done to the other dude's car - sweet shit all. Minor dent in the boot (wagon) and some paint exchange on his bumper. Bumper hasn't moved which is good :D should be easy fix. The guy's really understanding about it too, totally apologetic for getting his rage on haha.

On a side note, this was the only upside to that whole day:

Spotted black r33 near fyshwick, then a white R34 with a guy who waved at me ; i waved back through my rear tint but i dont think he saw; then 50metres ahead another white r34 with half a wing ? i was in an r34 also

btw if white r34 guy who waved at me today can tell me how to get those red/white rear bar reverse lights i will be happy

Hi Bratva,

Not sure but it could have been me on Canberra Ave today .... I had 34's all over me.

I'm guessing you were the black 34 and rig136 was the 'half wing' guy ....

Nice to meet you both.

    • There is a LOT of stuff that can be done, it all depends on how much time and money you want to spend on doing in.  Not all ECUs will be able to do it, and the more control you need the more time and knowledge needs to be put into making it work.  If you're willing to spend the time and money and have the right hardware and skills involved there's a lot that can be done. 
    • I am impressed with all this level of adjustment. I didn't expect all this possibility
    • Correct.  In the case of the 500kw dyno plot I showed you the car actually runs two boost control solenoids for boost control and a 5psi wastegate spring.  It allows me to control how much boost pressure is applied to both sides of the wastegate valve at any point and fairly accurately control boost target as a result. I've tuned it so that it's able to target anywhere from 5psi to 25psi depending on what's needed.  The target tables I've set up in that car are Gear vs RPM, so every gear has potential for a different boost (and torque) curve.   First and second gear have quite low boost targets, third gear actually has different target boost all the way through the rpm range as it's a stock RB25 gearbox - the boost targets have been chosen to maintain a peak of 600nm (what the owner has set as the maximum torque he's happy with putting through the stock 3rd gear) but it carries that to the rev limiter.   The boost curve to achieve that is something of a ramp up, then hold, then ramp up again and the power curve looks more like a flat line haha.  
    • so you can decrease or increase the boost depending on the diet as you wish?     by acting on the wastegate?
    • That's torque and power, it's all from a single run.  The boost curve is "held back" from it's peak target in the 3500rpm to 5000rpm range from memory, so it ramps hard to something like 18psi then climbs more progressively to 23psi nearer 5000rpm.   It makes the torque (and power) ramp more "natural" and less hard on parts and traction, it doesn't feel artificially held back.
