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 :

    • Kinda glad I never got to this ..    https://www.facebook.com/groups/1483859159195077
    • @GTSBoy This method was able to get readings of -10 to -2, so it looks like its monitoring.  Now I need to figure out why the vacuum on the line provided isn't alternating with manifold pressure.  I went with 2 lines that an RB25 tuner recommended but I'll get a longer hose and try directly off the back of the manifold.  He may have been used to OEM intake setups while I have a DBW setup that removed the MAF and IACV.  
    • I work at a car detailing and tinting shop called Quark which gets all manner of German cars in usually (mainly due to a contract with Mercedes Benz Kita Osaka, BMW Nishinomiya and others) but every once in a while something special comes in, like a fully restored 1972 HS30 Nissan Fairlady 240ZG... The shop owner had immediately started applying film to the windows as soon as it was in the shop so the interior was completely covered in towels and plastic sheets. But I could get a few photos of the engine bay which was restored like new. Such an amazing car to see in pristine condition in Japan these days.  
    • Was going to say the car pulls up nicely everywhere, especially going into that last long right hander before the main straight. Looks like a lot of fun.
    • Hey Dave, welcome aboard! Good to see another soon-to-be Stagea owner here. The wagons are awesome — plenty of space, still got that Skyline DNA, and loads of potential if you’re into mods. Definitely post up pics when you get it, everyone here loves seeing new builds. What model/year are you looking at?
