first deca, really had fun! a huge thanks to the organisers for putting in the time and effort in making it all nice and smooth.
my break down
skid pan confused the f**k out of me. there is only so much an arab brain can handle, though i was alright on the second runs.
had a huge blow by issue which we kind of bandaid fixed.
also as i started the wangs the car started missing under boost so i went offroading and made my own shortcut back to martin (who had this priceless confused look on his face)
fixed that and gave it a once over and ripped this!

Had a blast today! Thanks to Ryan for the lend of some wheels while i sorted out some new ones :thanks:

Had a bit of a hard time of the skid pan, got lost heaps haha :rolleyes:

Really impressed with the general attitude of the group, it felt very welcoming and friendly. I learned a shit ton just from taking rides with some of the more experienced guys!

Once i got used to everything i was improving heaps which is what i wanted to get out of the day! Ill be back for the next one!!! ;)

i just assumed you were completely lost

Did anyone happen to find a black Hyundai Flip Key? I'm not sure if I've misplaced it in the car or at home, or if it's somehow been left at DECA.

Edit: Turns out I was smart enough to take it out of my car before I left for DECA. Found it :P.

Cheers to all who organised, helped, assisted, made it a great day! Had so much fun driving the Sil80 for the first time, glad it was relatively hassle-free.

Also happy to set the record for first triple-entered car and still having it running at the end of the day! Do we get a prize? :-D

No worries, pity the battery went flat after 2nd group runs. Didn't realise it doesn't last long after taping all runs on 1st group.

Thanks to the organisers, volunteers and sponsors once again!

And as always to Martin, Grant and Paul for the videos. (P.S. odium + jett.... isn't me)

No worries.

It's Peter by the way.

Heh cheers. Dont forget its also Russell and Campbells Sil80 too. Credit to those guys too for producing an 'off its chops' car haha.

Job well done boys. Loved the flutter too

    • Nah it factory manual not sure about ratio but it looks like there’s been some work at the rear 
    • so I need a new speedo cable 
    • Throwing my spoon to the soup here a bit.  When I installed a 044 back in 2012, along with the direct power mod, the car became very difficult to start. To a point I burned one starter motor as I was late for work and tried to get the thing going. With some tuning and careful use of gas pedal when cranking it became bearable. Trying to make this short as possible, but the 044 died after 2-3 years, after which I went with an AEM 320lph pump, which also died after about 4 years to my dismay. After that I went with a Nismo pump, and while trying diagnose an emissions problem, I noticed for the first time that my fuel pressure was 5bar/72psi on idle, and that removing the vacuum line did nothing. After monitoring the situation, and removing the direct power feed and going back to FPCM in attempts to remedy it, I noticed there was fuel in the pressure regulator vac line. Kept the FPCM, installed AEM external regu and the car became sooo much better in every way, including starting. And I had driven it like it was for 11 years.. Anyway, I agree these are likely two different problems, and the FP problem you just haven't noticed before. I do not know much about haltecs, but what first came to mind was the CAS, which probably is not there any more. So how is the wiring from haltec to gauge cluster? How is the battery voltage and alternator?
    • Your car was auto before? You have different diff ratio (auto vs manual i think? or n/a and turbo?)
    • +1 for getting a screen off alibaba, CarPlay/Android Auto is vastly better than whatever navigation cars had 10 years ago. I got an Android screen for my 2015 BMW, huge difference. Fully compatible with factory stuff including iDrive controls.
