Well my first time back at wsid in about 8mths with high hopes and that's where it ended. My car is now running better than ever and once again I still couldn't grab a decent time, I feel like headbutting a brick wall :(

I did manage to get a new PB but only by literally a bee's dick.

1. 14.489 @ 94.84mph / 2.190sec

It felt nice and smooth, launch was the usual but for some reason I was -way- down on mph, I didn't even miss a gear :D

2. 15.265 @ 100.23mph / 2.737sec

First run after a 30min rain period. Absolutely no grip on the greazy track and simply bagged em up!

3. 14.145 @ 102.07mph / 2.167sec (<- new PB)

Tried to slam the gears harder, felt smooth once again and managed to get a new PB (old PB was 14.163 @ 100.20mph / 2.148sec).

4. 14.252 @ 100.87mph / 2.166sec

Once again was trying to work the gears hard but was slightly slower even though it felt just as good *shrugs*

5. 14.571 @ 98.02mph / 2.184sec

Used low boost this time (7psi) just for shits n giggles (even though high boost is only about 8-9psi haha).

As you can see my launches are pretty much spot on everytime (even though 2.1xx sec is not overly impressive atleast it's consistent). Sure I could grab some semi-slicks or even drag nitto's etc and probably shave off a tenth or 2 but I shouldn't need to when i'm making a solid 195+ rwkw. I'm a good 0.5sec off the pace of where I believe I should be (and the times others are doing in similar powered cars) and im stumped as to what it is (obviously it's the driver).

Was a great nite of racing (besides the rain periods). Some awesome cars about and probably the biggest meeting i've seen in a good 5-6mths. Wish I left my car in the carpark and spectated instead.

i only ended up getting 240RWKW

need to lower compression gonna get a steal head gasget, that will bring her up to the 290 mark.

im gonna buy some slicks soon, just gotta find out how to fit them without removing the brakes, 16" is the only size that can go on.

Sorry mate as I've said several times in the past the 20g wont flow enough to make 290 its impossible, maybe some decent drag radials would be better then slicks as then you don't have to worry about the added cost of front runners

    • Hey all, I'm sorry if this has been discussed before.  I have a 2008 Japanese import V36 coupe with nav but without Bose. I bought one of those AliExpress android screens, which for the most part works really well.  The only thing that doesn't work is the air con controls (well sort of) and the factory reverse camera.  The AC can be controlled fine but it doesn't report the change in temp and mode to the screen, and the volume knob/other audio controls from the panel don't register on the learning app.  I am pretty certain that the problem is the difference in the head unit between base model (Nav but no Bose) 2007-2009 coupes and anything after 2009.  Mine is the one with the blue connector all the way to the right as seen in this forum post:  The reason I think this is there is one wire left over that doesn't fit anywhere on this head unit, or in the factory screen which also uses different connectors to more recent versions.  I've seen the upgrade from OWC, and have sent the guy a message on eBay but no response yet.  I also don't particularly need the whole kit, just *maybe* an adapter for this one cable.  Did anyone else here have the same problem, or have any insight about what I can do to get this working?  I have been in contact with the seller but all they seem to be able to do is ask for more pictures and videos. Minor edit to add:  I have been researching and found a screen on Aliexpress that actually specifies my head unit in the listing, so these things do exist.  I will contact the seller to see if the wiring adapters are interchangeable with other screens.   Thanks in advance!
