to anyone bringing up friends for the day, volunteers would be much appreciated.

volunteers will get a free lunch and the chance to win 1 of 2, $50 fuel vouchers

Also if we dont get the volunteers then the day dosent go ahead

Guys

With DECA only days away we are still short on Officials to run the day.

So if you are driving and bringing mates, girlfriends , boyfriends or

even your mum or dad put your hand up now and put them on the volunteers

list.

Cheers WayneO

Man roadies are BULLSHIT these days, new laws, new and more requirements, testers have had to be schooled further...they pick absolutely EVERYTHING now...sucks hairy ballsacks bigtime.

But yeah deca is awesome and im sure youll get it sorted just in time.

Tint test with meter, brake fluid test with meter, brake performance test (hard to fail), structual awareness ------> any vehicle which has been fork lifted or run over some kind of gutter which has a bump in the chasis is a automatic fail. so basicly every import is now unroadworthy.

Alot of mechanic's were handing there license back in, as they also have to take photographs of the vehicle and every fault, store for 7 years and submit to vic roads.

not to mention rwc costs have trippled.

The vicroads website has a customer feedback option, it wouldn't let me submit my opinions because i used the word crap! apparently thats a sware word. naturally i changed it to "cr#p"

On a side note alot of dealers and used car salesman are going broke, with increasing costs, just wait alot of have been closing down over the years, but now more will crumble.

my 2 cents. D.

    • I have a VALCON if anyone wants it, I have no idea why you'd want to have VVT specifically broken out of the ECU as opposed to running it off the FCON/whatever standalone you have.
    • Hi Yes we're a bit optimistic we might get something out of sealing up the two pipes of the external wastegate and reactivating the stock one. I believe the orginal stock wastegate was tack welded shut. It doesn't budge and visually looks closed and sealed. The car has noticeably more lag so it could be at least part of the problem, maybe all. It's definately one of the key changes made since last tune. And it's one that's more difficult to fully understand and measure, not like for instance timing or cylinder compression.  Thanks for that feedback, we'll let you know how this progresses. Fingers crossed.   Regards Rob
    • Transplanting the vvt from a 25neo into an rb26?
    • Well, I was going to say, "Is the wastegate set up so that it is not leaking?" That's actually a different thing to what you're asking about. In theory, if you have allowed the two halves of the manifold to commmunicate (more than the stock manifold does - which is at least a little bit) then the negative effect should be apparent in delayed spool, not in outrigth power. OK, maybe just maybe, a badly set up twin scroll wastegate "crosstalk" might kill the top end, although it's hard to see how. What is happening with the original wastegate in the turbo? is it sealed off properly. If it's left flapping in the breeze, it will f**k everything up. If it is still there, and can be returned to service, I'd be capping off the external (presuming the two halves can and will be isolated from each other after doing so) and have a go with just the stock wastegate. I have an internal wastegate in my highflowed rear housing. The bigger opening and flapper should be fine to >250 rwkW. So there's not exactly a pressing reason to have the external. Done right, an external will give better results. Done wrong, it might just be possible to have worse results. Report back!
