If this Wednesday is any good weather wise i will be trying to head out to the Creek again to better my 13.6 PB 

all parties interested welcome to come play

good news on the gearbox front...its fixed. It seems that the d1ckheads who put it together put 3-4 bearing sleeve on backwards causing it to creep and throw the clearances out....pick it up on Sat. install Sat night. with luck race next wed.

I'll be there also... Trying to blind you while you're doing a burnout and when taking off at the christmas tree's... LOL... Anyone who is out there should be getting a few snaps of their cars while on the line and in staging lanes... If anyone especially wants a video of their run/s please let me know prior via email: [email protected] and i'll film you from the line... All the best and hope to see you out there...

Sounds great Steve....love to have a vid of a 10sec pass in the beast if i get there! Will let you know how the car is on monday.

i will be there, as well as many of the nissansilvia.com members since we are having our WSID night this coming wednesday. hopefully the weather permits, allready the NSCC meet got cancelled due to rain last wednesday :D

ive only been to WISD once, and the best time i managed was a 13.4 @ 111mph on 18" blingers in full street trim. No octane booster etc. nothing. i screwed up every launch bad. so hopefully now i will go into the 12s :P

cheers all if you see us around dont be scared to say hi.

Hi Paul, nice to here you got your box back lets hope it works this time.

Got my OS box today but dont know when we will have time to put it in.

It would be good to run our cars heads up.

Hi abflug.......replying on pauls behalf...........yep that would have been great abflug. we are both pulling our hairout. (well I am as pauly has none!). Paul was all ready to head down to sydney to pick the box up 2moro, but we have been told late 2day it's still not ready. Oh well.....as they say......'good thing will come to those who wait'

man i went backwards wednesday night

I improved my 60 foot times from 2.2 to 1.9

but i lost 3/10 tenths at the finish for a best of 13.9

and was also down on speed normally 166 km/h i was was at 160km/h

I will not race again till i have some more power

BU5TER:

The car has been put on the backburner as I am still overseas. But I will get stuck into it as soon as I get back to Oz. Still haven't settled on which ECU I am going to use. And yours?

DIRT: my fingers are permanently twised from crossing them so much. Patience is a virtue, especially in this game. ;)

    • I’d love to find some where that can recover the dashes to look brand new and original. Mine has a very slight bubble, nothing compared to some I’ve seen though 
    • $170K. I asked one of the guys there as a joke if that price was just for the passenger seat as it was where the price sheet was... he tried really hard to crack a smile 😄 He also mentioned that every single part of the car was inspected and either restored or replaced with a new or as new part, or made from scratch. The interior was incredible, every inch like a new car.
    • Time for a modernisation, throw out the AFM, stock O2s, ECU into the e-waste bin. Rip out the cable throttle, IACV, pedal, etc. into the scrap metal bin. DBW, e-throttle, modern ECU, CANbus wideband, and the thing will drive better than when it left the factory.
    • I agree, don't go trusting those trims. As I said, first step is to put the logger away, and do the basics in diagnosis.   I spend plenty of time with data loggers. I also spend plenty of time teaching "technicians" why they need to stop using their data loggers, and learn real diagnostics.   The amount of data logs I play with would probably blow most people away. I don't just use it to diagnose. I log raw CAN data too, as a nice chunk of my job is reverse engineering what automotive manufacturers are doing.
    • I'm aware, but unless you're actually seeing the voltage the ECU is seeing and you're able to verify the sensors are actually working I find it hard to just trust STFT/LTFT. I will say, logging the ECU comes naturally to me because it's one of the lowest effort methods of diagnosis and I do similar things in my day job all the time. Staring at 20+ charts looking for something that isn't quite right isn't for everyone. NDS1 allows you to log almost everything so that's normally what I do and then sort out the data later.
