no wonder it's leaking man, it's on sideways

still....its about half what we retail mugs have to pay for a Dunlop semi slick in the same size

this is a S1 auto with winter kit, sunroofs and auto lights for reference. It shows Tail Lights in the same place you found

under the bonnet mate, all the light fuses and relays are there. do you have the positions marked on the under bonnet fuse box cover? If not, take a pic of the fuses and we can check what they match. BTW if you have a multimeter you can quickly check each fuse using the continuity check

Good work guys, helping someone do superlap from their shed is a great cause. I've put some money up too

FWIW, I disagree. I think they mean exactly what it says. Why should some super hot exhaust be allowed to vent right next to the firewall in the engine bay, and the rest has to head back under the body. Screamer pipes might be hectic but they are not a safe exhaust system.

What an excellent cause. I'll donate a tyre of whatever type he is running, now he only has to buy 3. Might also be able to help in some other ways, I've sent James some ideas.

That does sound like a boring old misfire, particularly if you hearing it popping a bit at the same time it stops accelerating. From your post you have already spent a heap of money swapping random stuff, why not take it to a workshop with a dyno? They can swap all the bits they need to without you buying and trying each thing. If you want to keep trying the swapping you could always change the CAS and ignitor and resistor packs depending on what your engine has.

BTW on the other hand, you don't need a clutch to change gears, you just need the right revs. unfortunately the window is much smaller with a synchro box and there is often only a small gap in required revs due to slow speeds which makes it very hard on the street (I can only get it right 80-90% of the time). Fundamentally the synchros slow down gear changes, that's the bottom line.

Just Jap are the guys to call for R35 rims, they have prepped at least 5 GTRs by now so the wheels are somewhere. Personally I'd be surprised if wheels that big would fit, but hey, they would look good

lol I figured I was the only person on these forums to remember bustling hedgerows

seriously. I am so intrigued I almost want to go and see what a bunch of trees look like

surely that is called a "forest". weird town

ahh I remember circuit racing, must give it a go again one day. no more cams for me though, I'm a little over having the world's lowest powered/most hobbled GTR

location? Are the door weather strips in good condition, I could do with a better set

ahh well. no pics yet so it was probably just a flesh wound

oops...did I miss a post?

BTW, it's worth adding just changing to cruise control dropped my fuel usage from 15/100 to 13/100. Since I'm doing 1000klm per week at the moment it should pay off pretty quick.

dammit just makes me a wanker. what is an arboretum BTW this city is cold

Good to see an R35 giving a proper shot at racing, the targa spec ones have not been competitive. Will it be your first race in about 3 weeks or have you done some racing before. There's nothing quite like sitting on the grid waiting for the lights to go out... Either way, Good luck!

great to see it coming along, imagine a $uperlap car being built in a garage!

congrats on the win Chris, it's great to see you getting so much reliable race time too (sorry if I just jinxed you) When is next round?

woot! stageas on the grid!

sorry I didn't give an actual update. after a short time sitting around this has kicked along again. 50,000 new hoses ordered from a ST lunatic in japan and the old engine is out. need to assemble new engine, replace heaps and get it rolling again. unfortunately I have a "too many projects" issue. while this is a cool little car it is not first on the list (3rd, actually, behind finishing the ute, and the race car)

Tats you bludger!
