Ahh Bathurst, the 1 weekend of the year that I don't answer phone calls or the front door and have missed numerous family things over the years! Actually I think it's my mothers birthday, but she can wait too!

I think Skaife and Lowndes have the winning combination but i'd really like to see my #1 team HRT do well they need it badly.

lowndes and skaife are a winning combo (and i'd love to seem them win it), but it's a long race and anything could happen. there have been plenty of "johnny on the spot" wins and podiums where teams have been mid pack for the whole race and then a safety car at the right time has fitted in perfectly with their strategy and put them up the front.

expected weather conditions at Mount Panorama today.

A top temperature of 18 degrees is expected today with morning fog and isolated showers and the chance of thunderstorms in the late afternoon.

lowndes and skaife must be even bigger favorites now...

greg murphy will be a favorite to.

that said he doesn't have the best wet Bathurst record does he....

Well looks like SBR are stepping up to the plate. All three cars in the top ten in P5 with Cheeseburger fastest. Whincup put his thing in the wall trying to keep up. So the 888 lads will be busy before qualifying this arvo.

mmmm bathurst = beer

one of these each, should be a good day

not sure if I will get to watch all 4 rwc games as well as the jap gp, but I will do my best. might even extend the weekend into monday if I need to...

one of their cars got bumped 5 spots down the grid because they didnt hear the call to get their cars weighed.

then the general manager of the supercabs pretty much called the GRM team incopetant etc

Garry wears his heart on his sleeve and I can understand how he would have been insulted.

Always been a fan of people that call it how they see it and don't worry about upsetting the world.

for the 2nd year in a row will be supporting a HOLDEN :yucky: so watch out for the Fair Dinkum Sheds car to come from 27th

An old rule I go by is...

1 by 11, or else 11 by 1... :cheers:

    • Another question sorry, what stainless do u use in the turbo external WG plumb back piping? Is it 321, 316 or 304?
    • Right, its been a while for updating this car, but I made some small but important progress today. In the end I bought an Ecutek dongle from the Australian distributor Tunehouse (for local hardware support) but have gone with a remote tune from Racebox in the US (because they have done millions of these, and I could not find any tuner where I could access the tune anyway as they are all password locked). The App is reasonably easy to work with, but the PC software reminds me of Haltech's ECU Manager that you need to use with the Plat Pro ECUs, it is a nightmare.  Anyway, I sent the details over, got back a tune file and a request for data logs. I finally got a chance to access a private test track today as they want redline logs in 3rd and 4th, and have sent them back for the first round of reviews. The main difference in the tune is going from 1.0 (stock) to 1.3 bar (19psi), although I'm sure is a lot of other stuff in the background. Keeping in mind this is a dead stock car with 125,000klm, this is what the App's performance test claimed: Before After Interesting to note that both 400m tests had the same terminal speed (158klm/h) but different ETs. And no, the speed limiter seems to be higher than that at 186kl/h. Summary of the key logged parameters for the 3rd and 4th gear runs were: Those little turbos were certainly whizzing at 200,000rpm+.  Also I'm really not that excited about oil pressure 55psi at redline so I think I'll go thicker than 5w30 (nissan recommend 0w20....) and see if that improves it. Other than that (and the big boost spike....) everything looks good as a start to me.
    • Just one more post to show the final result and the original "janky" solution for a laugh. Everything feels really tight and no wobbling at all, very pleased 🙂
