I won't be going to the 1st "guest list only" event as I already promised to visit my friend this Sunday... beside it's likely too late already by now.

But I'd be up for that 20th March event... Do we just be a spectator or can we have a run as well? Will there be different levels like beginners, intermediate, pro? It's not funny for a beginner to compete against pro and getting smashed up trying some fast corners dedicated for pros only... I'm sure many ppl still like to drive their cars back home in 1 pc.

It's on the track.

not in the dome.

There was a demo day there 2-3 months ago to get approval to have these types of events covered by insurance etc

I dont know much more about it than that at the moment. I aint spoken to anyone for a while.

As for participation... i am 'told' now this is not gospel, that it will be invite only.

that's just what i was 'told'

Reasoning for that was they are mainly just getting the interest for Vic-Drift flowing hot etc.

Then other days will follow.

Again, this is what i was told by a few acquaintances at various stages late last year. Dont hold me to it

Hi,

Adam from Full Lock here. Just thought ids clarify a few things for you guys.

Do we just be a spectator or can we have a run as well? Will there be different levels like beginners, intermediate, pro? It's not funny for a beginner to compete against pro and getting smashed up trying some fast corners dedicated for pros only...

You can go as a spectator or you can go as a competitor. There will be two divisions. Factory tuned division and an amateur division. Factory tuned is invite only. This class will have some of Australia’s hottest drift cars and driver’s competing head to head on a challenging track layout. The amateur division is designed for anyone to compete and give it a go on a safe and easy track layout.

I am 'told' now this is not gospel, that it will be invite only.

Only the factory tuned will be invite only. Amateur will be open for everyone.

What part of Calder will be used for drifting, flat track or inside the dome?

The flat track will be used. In particular the last chicane and right hand sweeper. The factory tuned cars will uses the part of the straight and possibly the short corse right hand sweeper.

Hope this helps.

      RB25DE NEO with Haltech ECU

      By Haggerty · Posted

      I seem to the be only person that is using a Haltech 2500 on an NA motor, I've installed a Bosch DBW throttle body to the OEM intake manifold and am having problems maintaining AFR even with the wideband o2.  It will run extremely rich at idle and up to redline, but under load it will go extremely lean in the 20s and i'm essentially having to rev it over 4k and feather the clutch to get it up to speed.  I've read a few other threads of about the butterfly, it seems removing the vacuum to it is supposed to have it remain open, i've noticed no difference under 4k with the vacuum line to it plugged.  I'm hoping someone here has had luck using the NA manifold with Haltech, and if they happen to have a tune for it.

      I don't know any details, but I really wouldn't be surprised if they do it as a LHD only version, at least initially.

      What should I do next to hold the head on

      By Gareth87 · Posted

      Thanks for the replies everyone. Definitely a coolant push. Oil catch can is empty and always has been. As the engine is out now I'll be having a good look over things. I do have some detonation on the piston tops from a trigger issue back about 5 years ago. I felt it and shut off then bought a new ecu and changed the trigger. Never been an issue since. It never hurt the power, its made almost 80hp more since that incident but I will pull the bearing caps to take a look. If the bearings are damaged I will do a bottom end refresh. Head is being re conditioned at the moment and the block will be cleaned and checked to ensure it's flat. I'll go with a kameari gasket and see how it ends up. The other thing I'm not super keen on is the cylinder colours. I suspect this is from the inlet manifold. The plan will be to put it back together, retune and then stick a plazmaman billet inlet on it and retune. I'm happy with the power, if it makes a little more, then great, but I would rather just make everything more efficient at this stage.

      Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...

      Does it also misfire equally when revving?   Josh is very correct in what you should do. The coilpack harness wiring loom itself is a known problem due to its age and the number of heat cycles it has gone through. Throwing parts at a vehicle to diagnose the issue isn't a smart or good way to do it. Secondly, you may have a bad coil pack, you pop replacements in, they fix that issue, but messing with the harness breaks it, so the issue persists. So now you think "well it wasn't the coil packs" and have to continue chasing your tail, potentially swapping back in your shit coil packs and returning the good ones (yes, I've seen people do this because 'it wasn't the problem' and they want to save money). And suddenly, you've got two issues with the same symptoms...   Diagnose, don't use the spare parts shotgun.
