LOL yes doing 7500rpm launches on Hoosier drag radials a few months ago might have made a mess of the rear diff too.

Usually i'd only launch @ 4000-4500rpm and it would turn tyres easy on the skidpan.

However there was addition of Racepace-spec Tiens... So was launching @ 6500rpm or 6700rpm, and it was still bogging on occassions as it just has heaps of grip now.

Felt heaps more settled on the back track too. Certainly worth the money.

hrmm... :glare:

Rear not locking would be the reason it wouldn't spin around on itself.

Perhaps it is stuffed as well :angry:

so whats the estimated cost of fixing?

I've got a Nismo front diff, so it doesn't break again.

Stock rear diff though, they are usually fine so i'll just get another. I'll drop the shaft first and make 100% sure it's not working :merli:

Driving on Saturday hungover hurts. A lot. Yet it hurts a lot less than the pain of not making it :D

When you drop a wheel on the grass, you sure slide for a long.. long.. long time huh?!

Thanks go to the organisers once again for a perfectly run day, love your work guys!

Single Spinners FTW! - Well least thats what it looked like from the vantage point I had.... Hey, on the positive side- at least there was some smoke :nyaanyaa:

Thanks again to the organisers, I had a great time and we couldnt have asked for better weather!

Big thanks to Wayne-o for the pre-dinner jagerbombs.... Has anyone else ever been kicked out of Baz's or am I the first one? I was apparently very happy, sociable and extremely loud- and told everyone "I LOVE LOVE Luke but LOVE youl" :rofl2:

Ahhh, good times! Sad that I will miss November DECA, but have the Skyline Nats to make up for it - bring it on!! :cheers:

Where was the grass slide? Long Wang? I have a series of photos of somebody taking the scenic route past the garage.

Unfortunately for Jett, I not only have a picture of his impromptu hill climb event, I have a series of 9 pictures. I feel an animation may be produced later.

I had a great day, fantastically run as always!

Perfect DECA.

Awesome weather, tons of fun, no major incidents, fun Sat night and a pleasant drive home. As always massive thanks to import monster, volunteers, and organisers.

I've also heard rumours about introducing a new hill climb event next DECA considering the last was so successful. Can anyone confirm this?

      Low oil pressure after WOT

      By pogman · Posted

      I much prefer that to an actual oil pressure issue, never would of thought it would of been a volt drop issue but SAU brains win again. Guess ill be turning down the oil pressure limit for the track and hunting some grounds. Ill hopefully update this thread with some high oil pressure and solid ecu voltage logs.

      Question about BoV on RB25DET NEO

      By Murray_Calavera · Posted

      You've just discovered a really good reason to tell yourself, yes, I do need to buy an aftermarket ECU. Put the MAF in the bin. Slap in the new ECU and have a think about what turbo sounds you prefer.  Do you want a 90's style BOV wooosh? Do you want a hektik tsututututu?  Mate, can't go wrong. Just gotta get that ECU and the world is your oyster.

      Question about BoV on RB25DET NEO

      By Kapr · Posted

      Hi. Iam just curisou about this topic. I saw this video. It is about Greddy Type FV2. I know that BoVs are about that sound but how and when to use it? I read some topic here and from what i have understand on stock RB with MAF there will be some "problems" if you use this BoV? It vents the air in to the atmosphere and the MAF on stock car needs this air back in to the intake and not out? Or is it wrong? If so...i saw you can put some adaptor to circule air back...but does that not "loose" that sound? I saw another BoV from Turbosmart and it has two "exhaust" like ports? One is for the stock tubing for letting air back and one is for "sound" and let the air in the atmosphere? Can someone please explain? This is the Greddy one:  And this is the Turbosmart.     THANK YOU!! EDIT: So i read about this topic some more and i if i understand that correctly: That Greddy can function either like BoV or 100% Bypass valve? And that Turbosmart is what they called hybrid so you can adjust what and how many air can be vented out or back in? Is this right? THX!

      That dirty voltage drop is the culprit I suspect
