Hey all Troy did not blow his engine at wakie just had a few top end dramas, should be all sorted now and the engine ran strong at EC this week.

The car is running well and Troy is feeling good from the data we got and feedback from Troy with some more seat time before WTAC it should be well into the 30's.

Will be good to see the open RWD battle I think a 33-35 will be needed to get the RWD title but for the class Mmm don't know maybe a 32? Dam some of the cars in open will be fast.

There is some mental stuff being built. Big question is how many will be ready and developed in time I guess.

I think I'll be in same boat again this year where I'm a year behind! My time last year was fast enough for RWD winner in 2010 and my time this year will probably good for 2011 but not fat enough for this year.

Once you go well into the 30s, money and development time start to have an exponential impact! I'm out of both!

So true. Being a year behind every year!

Doesn't matter Russman, we'll have fun cracking gates and driving hard! Even if i had the money some of the other cars do, I dont think I'd pour it all into the car. Mine owes me a bit but less than half of the big hitters. I did buy $23 fender flares off ebay though. Thats how i roll!

We had a container land on our driveway yesterday and unpacked this bad boy fresh from Japan

That's where my container with my R35 ended up! Damn shipping companies, can't trust em.

Good luck in Pro. I'd love to see the car get a quick time in Pro.

Mark Berry punted the hi octane 34 gtr around the qr sprint track in 51.4 today, the fastest timeattack lap ever.

Did this on last years superlap used 265 semis and one corner with a river running through it.

Damn impressive. :worship:

Two records on treaded rubber.

Sprint 51.46

Clubman 53.16

Wicked.

    • Is the panel filter one that is oiled? Have you ever cleaned or touched the AFM?
    • So.... the K&N air box thingo was too big, ended up gifting it to a mate, well, by gifting it he actually supplied food and beer at the pub,  which was nice, as it will not sit on a shelf in the garage for the next 10 years I did trim up some of the existing stuff to neaten it all up and gave it some wrinkle paint, unfortunately it currently has a used and abused mish mash of different types of hose clamps, 4 big fat T bolt type (shit), and a few normal clamps of vairing sizes and brands, but..... only until the 6 constant tension black worm clamps that I ordered from EFI solutions turn up next week Currently the current hose clamps are triggering me hard, LOL Is this the final version, probably not, I really want just 2 silicone pieces, a straight bit of silicone from the filter to the MAF is easy and will happen as soon as I head into Just Jap tomorrow, the problematic part is a 30° silicone bend from the MAF to the TB that I can connect the engine breather from the head, I found that there are bulk head fittings for boat bilge pumps that should work, but until I can get a 30° silicone bend the alloy pipe, and the 11ty thousand hose clamps, are there for the foreseeable future 4 hose clamps are golden, 6 are grudgingly acceptable, the 8 currently holding it all together is just taking the piss    I've also ordered 60 more retaining wall blocks for the front yard, I mis-gonculated the height that was required to get above the base of the Photinia's (red robin's) that are the hedge behind the front fence, currently it is 2 blocks high, and about 1/2 a block short, so going 3 blocks high will be above the base of the red robin's, and allow some room for mulch
    • It is the stock air box with the panel filter. Everything else is stock except the exhaust at this point, as I also went back to the cleaned 270cc injectors. I will check the RPM when the IACV is unplugged and report back.
    • As MBS suggested if this is happening when the engine is cold you're going to want to remove the intake air regulator and verify resistance + that the shutter is physically opening and closing. At -20C should be fully open, 20C half open, over 60C fully closed. At 20C should be 70-80 ohms. For AAC valve testing using a Consult cable see if you can raise and lower the idle by commanding more or less AAC duty cycle. Hopefully it's pretty linear as well, shouldn't be like 30% AAC valve is barely idling and 40% is 1500 rpm.
