Yeah no... We had to do the sump gasket on it. Shite job is shite. Other than that is alright :P

Why series is yours this one is a vt ls1

Did it have anything done to it?

Mine is the very last of the LS1, it's out of a VZ SS 250 factory killer wasps :P (before you get all sus, I converted it back to a cable throttle body for ease of use)

Ps4 all the way, nothing good can come from playing with a Xbox (Ex's Box)

agree with you Cap. Price for it here something like $550 which is really BS considering US is only $399 retail (taxes and duty - our country is so fark up that way!)

Ants, I believe I saw you mention something about my pic being a fake. Curious as to how you worked that out? Was going to get it canvas mounted, but if it's a fake f that!

I am all that is man! and know all........muahahahaha :devil: :devil: :devil:

yep fake - so frame it and hang it on the toilet wall

PS4, I will wait for the price drop on the XBONE, Who launches a console with most of it's features unavailable to 3/4 of your customer base outside the US until an undisclosed time. The kinect took what 1.5 years to give us voice control, And don't get me started on the once every 24 hours DRM and game sharing policies M$ have now. Maybe EA and M$ have the same guy making the decisions on how best to piss off paying customers.

But how can you tell? Timing lines up with when Senna ran Suzuka in 93?

I have a carbon testing app in my eyes and can tell that this so called 'Suzuka' are actually squiggles that Tyler dew :nyaanyaa:

Xpox for Forza. PS4 for everything else :)

Still better than $1000-$1100 onrelease

cool. I just copied you and printed this in laser color and now gonna frame it and hang it in my toilet :P :P :P

but seriously Tony where did you get that from?

Working on a 1970's MG at the moment. I have taken dumps bigger then this car. PS4 when the times come. However won't be getting one for a while. No need as GTA 5 and GT 6 are both being released on PS3

    • 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?
    • See if you can thermal epoxy a heatsink or two onto it?
    • The other problem was one of those "oh shit we are going to die moments". Basically the high spec Q50s have a full electric steering rack, and the povo ones had a regular hydraulic rack with an electric pump.  So couple of laps into session 5 as I came into turn 2 (big run off now, happily), the dash turned into a christmas tree and the steering became super heavy and I went well off. I assumed it was a tyre failure so limped to the pits, but everything was OK. But....the master warning light was still on so I checked the DTCs and saw – C13E6 “Heat Protection”. Yes, that bloody steering rack computer sitting where the oil cooler should be has its own sensors and error logic, and decided I was using the steering wheel too much. I really appreciated the helpful information in the manual (my bold) POSSIBLE CAUSE • Continuing the overloading steering (Sports driving in the circuit etc,) “DATA MONITOR” >> “C/M TEMPERATURE”. The rise of steering force motor internal temperature caused the protection function to operate. This is not a system malfunction. INSPECTION END So, basically the electric motor in the steering rack got to 150c, and it decided to shut down without warning for my safety. Didn't feel safe. Short term I'll see if I can duct some air to that motor (the engine bay is sealed pretty tight). Long term, depending on how often this happens, I'll look into swapping the povo spec electric/hydraulic rack in. While the rack should be fine the power supply to the pump will be a pain and might be best to deal with it when I add a PDM.
    • And finally, 2 problems I really need to sort.  Firstly as Matt said the auto trans is not happy as it gets hot - I couldn't log the temps but the gauge showed 90o. On the first day I took it out back in Feb, because the coolant was getting hot I never got to any auto trans issues; but on this day by late session 3 and then really clearly in 4 and 5 as it got hotter it just would not shift up. You can hear the issue really clearly at 12:55 and 16:20 on the vid. So the good news is, literally this week Ecutek finally released tuning for the jatco 7 speed. I'll have a chat to Racebox and see what they can do electrically to keep it cooler and to get the gears, if anything. That will likely take some R&D and can only really happen on track as it never gets even warm with road use. I've also picked up some eye wateringly expensive Redline D6 ATF to try, it had the highest viscosity I could find at 100o so we will see if that helps (just waiting for some oil pan gaskets so I can change it properly). If neither of those work I need to remove the coolant/trans interwarmer and the radiator cooler and go to an external cooler....somewhere.....(goodbye washer reservoir?), and if that fails give up on this mad idea and wait for Nissan to release the manual 400R
