Dare I say it...I've been eyeing off an Evo 9 for my runaround ;)

Took a Mazda 3 MPS out for a bash last weekend...damn those things fly and they are FUN!!!

I'll tell you this...it would be very interesting to see it race down the quarter.

Max Torque hits at 2500rpm (380Nm) and goes all the way to 5000rpm and there's no turbo lag (no jokes people). Clutch is very bitey...feels like a button in some ways :wave:

Yeh Andy was telling me about that. That's so cool! And very impressive!

im guessing the selling both your skylines isnt directed at me?

and karen, mazda 6 MPS stats

Horsepower : 274 hp @ 5500 rpm

Torque : 280 lb-ft @ 3000rpm

Redline : unknown

Top speed : 150 mph

0-60 mph : 6.2 sec.

0-¼ mile : 14.7 sec @ 96.5 mph(estimated)

60-0 braking distance : 121 ft(estimated)

200 ft skidpad : 0.90 g(estimated)

not bad, would be nice to see a few modified ones

yeah, hense why i wrote stock vs stock lol.. sorry for the confusion, i will write more clearly in future. or may even quote.
No worries ;)

I will read better too

awwwwww, look! The whores are getting along :wave:

And some of you use the word 'hence' far too much.

Hey Bryn I said the Mazda 3 MPS, not the Mazda 6 MPS :wave:

oooh also forgot to mention it has a top speed of 250km/h (yes you read right folks) and has a 2.5 inch pipe and 3inch tip...guy couldn't tell me if it was from turbo or not.

also 4 piston brakes and 320mm discs at the front :dry:

and yeh your right about seeing some modded ones :wave:

I happen to know a certain performance shop in Brissy has been working on a standard SP23 and it now makes 290kw at the front wheels ;)

and good lucky trying to sell botth ur skylines anytime in the next 20 years ;)

I could sell the R32 today...I get offers weekly

And the original owner wants first dibs anytime I want to sell it

The R33 will take a while but meh waht are you gonna do, The lowering fuel prices will help a bit! The whole never ending price hikes thing scared tonnes of people off

yeah true, but a improvement on the non turbo model, but the ass end of the mps 6 looks weird, and it comes in a nice blue/green colour. but still not for me ;)

    • Reading through the engine service manual their advice is do a cylinder balance test. Unplug one injector at a time and see if the idle drops a consistent RPM. You can also do this using a Consult cable which is easier. They also call for unplugging the power transistor, then with the engine off and the fuel rail unhooked from the manifold verifying that you have good fuel flow (even injection, no dripping/leaks, etc) when you twist the CAS by hand. Also verify the spark by pulling the spark plugs and allowing the plugs to ground and turning the CAS by hand. I would also start doing the sensor checks and idle valve checks in service manual. Make sure the MAF tests reasonably, the intake air regulator is sane, etc. You may have to get new spark plugs.
    • This sounds very old of me, however since buying the Tiguan shit box, my view on shit boxes have changed.
    • I've looked up the parts number (41011AL501). It's around $700 OEM. Usually our Infiniti G35 here in Canada have interchangeable parts with my Stagea but the parts number are not the same. I have looked around and it seems the JDM 2005 V35 Skyline (which is the same as our G35) has the same caliper but I cannot confirm. And I can't find a repair kit. The inner brake pads drags on the rotor, seems to be rusty piston. Thanks for the info by the way
    • This coupled with 6-9 speed autos with ridiculously short gearing is why these modern shitbox cars always seem so fast off the line. If it wasn't for those things, Raptors would not seem fast. The problem we have is there is a driveability gap between a more gentle take off and a wheelspinning sideways launch. The difference between ankle flex required to achieve one and ankle flex required to achieve the other is about 0.5°.
    • Yeah I think I'm also with the opposite here. It's 'hard to keep up with traffic' because in the real world I'm accelerating with 15% throttle and they are pinning it. It feels like I'm being an overt dickhead at anything above 15% throttle, so the car sounds like I'm being an overt dickhead to keep up with/get ahead of traffic when I'm really just trying to drive with traffic. There would be no issue 'keeping up with traffic' if we used the same level of throttle input/aggression to drive around. People really do just drive around with their foot nearly pinned in econoboxes.
