Personally, I'd be going for an L16 and turbo, blowing through a decent sized carbie of some sort - 45mm Weber, Dellorto or SU, side-draught of course... :angry:

Ahhh, cable ties and gaffa/electrical tape - the drift/drag/circuit racer's and mechanic's best friend! :D

Seriously though, that is some heavy duty damage. ;) Mona, you should keep the parts and display them somehow for memories. Ahhh, the good times!

yeah.. i'm planning on keeping some bits and pieces! maybe melt it all down and make some jewellery :)

Ryan - it was a new tune.. and i'd rather not say tuner

ECR033 - will PM you those details! ;)

Duncan - was not even changing down gears when it happend... wasn't even into a corner... it was on the straight! came around the corner and into 4th.. saw a ping... backed off... then slowly accelerated again... to which her response was to ping like crazy.. now my car has ALWAYS pinged.. its been a never ending story of tuners and octane booster to get her running smoother.. i've always backed off and shes been fine. My biggest problem was i never had a hand controller so i didn't know how badly it was pinging.. i tried to get one, but apexi (for some crap reason) don't do backward compatible hand controllers... so i had nothing to go on

And PLEASE PEOPLE! I DO NOT ACCELERATE INTO THE REDLINE! SO STOP IMPLYING IT!

Thanks morgs! :) i can truely feel some of your pain now :(

Ben - no.. i am not fool enough to continue accelerating through pings :

    • Jax Tyres this Monday morning. Front lifted 15mm Back lifted 12mm Quote1, $175 per tyre + wheel alignment. Quote2, $660 inc wheel alignment. paid $298 for the lot.  
    • Finally have an update on this  Rack came in this week so I did a test fit. You do need the S chassis bushings since the rack is 5mm thinner than the R33 rack. The main issue I foresaw and ran into was one of the hardlines not lining up properly with there it's meant to on the rack. After some gentle coercing and bending very slightly, I managed to get it to fit without any kinks and keeping the hardline pretty much in all of the factory mounting positions. I did have to unbolt all of the soft mounts to move the line around so I could snake it out and bend it safely but it looks good to me for now. I'll update when the rack is fully bolted in and functioning.  
    • I hear this thread needs an update following its adventures last Wednesday!
    • What are you thinking makes a sequential shit to drive on the street? About the ONLY thing I can think of, is if you're wanting to be able to roll up to lights in third or second and pop it straight into neutral, or you want to come down two or three gears, say out of 5th and back to second, but they shift quick enough it doesn't really matter
    • I'm not a drag racing guy, but that was a good watch. Didn't Ibrahim's car have some cooch! But the big question is....WTF is with so many of them running without seatbelts!
