Yeah well i;m sorry to have an issue with me paying 110 for getting tips off stooges. I have been to events previous events with other clubs and the drift teachers needed a hand. SORRY TO WANT MY f**kEN MONIES WORTH.

Why not say it's the old full lock crew and there would be no f**ken issue here Mr Nismoid.

As the current motor sport director I can tell you that SAU doesn't do events in half measures. If you do get the opportunity to come along to a DECA day or Driver Training day you should, as you will see our events are well organised and our volunteers (including instructors, marshalls, committee and even me) are dedicated to putting on an enjoyable day.

However we all do have full time employment and sometimes organising these things can be taxing. Please be patient with us, and don't take ash's posts as agressive..

Thanks, Chris.

You gotta be a member too see the section.

Membership takes i think 14 days to process/access granted etc etc.

If you cant see that link, your membership is

1) not processed yet

2) access hasnt been given out yet, but membership has been approved

That said, this day is looking to go without a hitch.

If it does, this could be the first of many.

For the dori dori event how much wear do you think the tyres will cop? 20%+ ? Ill be participating anyway as my tyres are new and ill just rotate

Just as much as any other ashphault surface. It is a little bit rough there thou. I guess it depends on how hard your going to go. But we will attempt to water it down. I still need to speak to the DECA manager about this.

If you just do a couple of circles, it shouldn't be that noticable tread wear. But if you smoke it up for a full 2mins, may take 15% off a tyre.

      I don't know any details, but I really wouldn't be surprised if they do it as a LHD only version, at least initially.

      What should I do next to hold the head on

      By Gareth87 · Posted

      Thanks for the replies everyone. Definitely a coolant push. Oil catch can is empty and always has been. As the engine is out now I'll be having a good look over things. I do have some detonation on the piston tops from a trigger issue back about 5 years ago. I felt it and shut off then bought a new ecu and changed the trigger. Never been an issue since. It never hurt the power, its made almost 80hp more since that incident but I will pull the bearing caps to take a look. If the bearings are damaged I will do a bottom end refresh. Head is being re conditioned at the moment and the block will be cleaned and checked to ensure it's flat. I'll go with a kameari gasket and see how it ends up. The other thing I'm not super keen on is the cylinder colours. I suspect this is from the inlet manifold. The plan will be to put it back together, retune and then stick a plazmaman billet inlet on it and retune. I'm happy with the power, if it makes a little more, then great, but I would rather just make everything more efficient at this stage.

      Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...

      Does it also misfire equally when revving?   Josh is very correct in what you should do. The coilpack harness wiring loom itself is a known problem due to its age and the number of heat cycles it has gone through. Throwing parts at a vehicle to diagnose the issue isn't a smart or good way to do it. Secondly, you may have a bad coil pack, you pop replacements in, they fix that issue, but messing with the harness breaks it, so the issue persists. So now you think "well it wasn't the coil packs" and have to continue chasing your tail, potentially swapping back in your shit coil packs and returning the good ones (yes, I've seen people do this because 'it wasn't the problem' and they want to save money). And suddenly, you've got two issues with the same symptoms...   Diagnose, don't use the spare parts shotgun.

      Well the articals keep saying a Q50s (Skyline in Japan) with a new Manual gearbox. I like the talk about the new looks with the round tail lights. I hope they bring back the retro look like they did with the Z
