hybrid

Drive it every night this week man. Take a trip down to taupo and back just fun. Some nice long 100kph runs stable at 3krpm and an oli change should do it. Wont take you to long too then youre ready for the 12th

bloody hot! And welcome to bimmersport

rings ... do it.

Cost was around $350 landed for the monitor .. on the pricey side but lots of functionality including ODBII and other sensor logging features. Only 1hz at this point .. just looking for a good 5 or 10hz replacement ..

Bit of a video explaining the new lap timer system im going to run. Excuse the finger on the mic in a couple of spots

Cheers, Yeah its been a lot of work and a lot of support from the likes of Ray/HellBM, olliem, my fabricator Brendan Dunkar and of corse Brendon Spain for working on this thing with me and coming up with alot of the wiring solutions etc etc just to name a few. With out these people it wouldnt exist. The thing with it is not to rush it, even if for me it means saving a little bit more money and buying the best thing for the job. Will have another update over the weekend around the touch screen laptimer system / carputer. that can be removed to bring the car out of track spec to stock 'road' interior

Check shelves this weekend Will make a post about it with photos when I get them.

Sound is still the same .. however I didnt really get a chance to ramp up the RPM too much in rush hour traffic. Tried it a couple of times and it sounds mint.

Time for some new goods. Brake bias valve to dial out some rear brake pinching under hard braking when the tanks half full. annnnd finally got this done .... makes a crap load of difference .. like driving the car at winter time. Floor it in the first 3 gears = wheel spin Stoked.

Did the guys get rid of those hideous wheels he put on it after he didnt by the LMs ?

dude ... new oil and half a day at hampton and it will be a new car. Sounds like it just needs a bloody good blow out.

imagine explaining that to the Fire Department when they turned up. Nice douche trap

Good enough yeap ... im just on a general tidy up of the for sale forum as it fallen to poo and people are just pasting trademe links to actions, which blows.

I may as well kick this forum off by starting a bit with my current setup I run at the track and the differences to the road setup. Also some of my experiences at hampton downs Track Hampton Suspension Ireland Engineering front and rear sway bars Front Ground control camber top plates 3.5degree neg and toe out to suit. Rear 1.0degree neg Springs 525 front 700 rear Koni yellow race rebound adjustibles Road Rears wound down to full soft Front wound to fullsoft then qauter turn up Track Rears wound right up then half turn down Front wound right up then qauter turn down Wheels/Tires Road 18x8.5 BBS LM 2 piece forged wheels Falken FK-452 225/35zR18 40psi Track 17x8.0 BBS RC monoblock light weight wheels Dunlop 240/625r17 D11 (9inch) All around 25psi cold 31psi hot Exhaust Road HSV dual 2 inch stainless center muffler and Remus e60 550i back box (Warrentible) Track Straight through pipe change out and Remus e60 550i back box (not road legal sound) Electronics Road Stock Track RaceChrono GPS laptime / 7 inch touch screen Log Notes: After running the slicks at 25psi cold and backing off the rear suspension a tad after the installation of front and rear strut braces I have got my times down an extra second at Hampton to a 1:19.1 I have no noticed however that I'm pinching the rear tires under heavy brakeing. Im installing an adjustible bias valve to help compensate rear lockup. This is noticed more obviously around 1/2 a tank of fuel or less. Turn in and stability is excellent. Diff lock up is suffering a little with the road diff. I will try a new mixture of redline fluids before considering uprating the LSD. Other problems I have noticed is the track ambient temprature was around 30 degrees C and my right front tire was starting overheat and melt on the center. I might have to try running a little less pressure in the FR. After running the slicks the car had a minor problem of 'galloping' out of the corners as the suspension was fairly tight however installing the front and rear strut braces has stopped this.
