I'd also like to put out a big thank you to Lozza150 who organised the Radio Advertising for this HUGE AWESOME event. We wouldn't have recieved the amount of people at this event if it wasn't for him.

Plus to the Central Coast locals that came out and made this event a success (just proves that not everone on the coast is a bogan at Terrigal on Thursday nights).

Also to Mingara for letting us use a lot of their facilites for this day.

And to the rest of the Organising committee, thanks for letting me help you guys with some of the organsing. I knew it was going to be a challange in organising some of the local stuff so I was happy to help out whereever I could.

Fantastic Day guys, lets make the next one even bigger..

Beaut day for Speed and we got stacks of pics although both Mark (the photographer) and I are toast.

Can't believe the turnout and so many really high quality cars as well! We have gotten a couple of feature cars out of this event and keep your eyes peeled around the 7th of June for SPEED 13.

Tops day blokes, now I'm off to buy shares in an Aloe Vera farm...

Well done to the organising committee. But the main kudos must go to Dan. The effort you put in for this was above and beyond the call. :P

The turn out was fantastic, I'm just sorry I had to work in the morning and didn't see it when the massive crowds were there. I was very relieved when I spoke to Dan in the morning and he informed me that there were 48 entries! :uh-huh:

It was great to see everyone pitching in at the end of the day and helping out too.

I'll echo Tosh's thanks to Jo-Ann from Powerplay for really promoting this event with her customers.

Thanks again to all the sponsors for providing the prizes and helping the make the day the great success it was.

Now to start thinking about next year....

Just adding my thanks to everyone who put the effort in, it was really good to see. I left Wagga at 4:30 in the morning and hammered it up there but as hard as that was, it wasn't a patch on what some of you guys did.

Thanks HEAPS! :P

Take the 'gtr' out of the URL and you will get the thumbnails (which don't work) but if you click on a thumbnail, the image comes up ! :(

Spectacular day out guys, the turnout in particular was awesome :P

HGE thanks to all the "officals" who put the day together.

Our pics are up at http://www.hgeconsulting.com.au/gtr/shownshine.htm

(Oh, and I look like a lobster too, but it was worth it :P )

Where's my best interior award :confused:

      Blue/grey smoke after idle

      You will need to extend the turbo inlet pipe somehow, which could/might be done with silicone/rubber pipe, but might need steelwork, depending on your intake. And you will need to change the pipework on the outlet in teh same way, but this is more likely to need steelwork.

      R33 GTS25 NA - Stalling when vehicle is at operating temp

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      I should try the experiment you're talking about, the throttle switch is still there carried over from the R32 and it's still all wired up but after I did the whole intake manifold refurb and had to recalibrate the TPS I managed to somehow get the idle switch reporting activation at 0.22V, then when I adjusted it to 0.45V for idle it decided the engine was permanently no longer idling which caused some very weird behavior, closed loop idle was disabled so it would basically be at the whims of the cold start valve and whatever the base timing table was at. Then just unplugging/replugging the TPS with the ECU live caused it to relearn the idle TPS position and decide 0.45V was idle. Presumably there's nothing in the TPS that allows for the throttle switch to "recalibrate" like that, not easily at least.

      R33 GTS25 NA - Stalling when vehicle is at operating temp

      By dbm7 · Posted

      Duh... to answer my own silly question, it's actually described in the FSM... ...400 pages away at the end of the manual, for RB25DE/DET signal descriptions, it cites the TPSwitch signal action, is dependent on the TPSensor value ~ this tends to infer the builtin POT voltage signal is the primary, and the switches are fallback/secondary should the POT fail/TPSensor signal lost (and switch alone with no TPSensor signal allows for base idle speed setting).... makes sense... they (TPS units) used to fail/wear the POT with time, they're not exactly built to last ~ having the switch as a redundancy gets around this...(or, it's less likely both signals would be lost as they're on different power rails)... and of course wrt RB26DETT, you have to electrically disconnect the IACV solenoid from the harness, to defeat idle air control...

      Dose is unaware just how much fun 145-150kw would be in a 2.5L NC MX5. It would be one of the most fun things to drive to ever grace SAU.
