What happened to your car Grant?

Nathan,

I may have killed something but won't know what exactly until I've have it looked by Trent of Status Tuning tomorrow or wednesday, look for my thread on Victoria forums for updates.

Cheers

What happened to your car that day? Saw you hammering around the track probably once, and then it looked like you were taking it easy? Did something break?

Can post up pics of your car if you want too.

Hey Mate,

Was on radials in the first 2 session bedding in some new pads which i decided to toss. Third session went out with the r-comps and ferodo's - whilst on this hot lap (passenger session) coming out of last turn - stripped 3rd gear - the temporary standard box could not cope with the torque - even after a detune the day before. :)

Cheers

Wow that sucks to hear mate. The car sounded like it was running sweet in the first few sessions. Car looks awesome and i hear its participating in superlap? I hope you go well and i will see you at Superlap if so!

Here's just one of many photos i took of your car on the day, i hope you enjoy it.

Thanks,

Kory

Prescott, those pics are from the Nasho down around sutherland yeah? Nice clean pics.

They're actually from a Putty road drive we did a couple of weeks ago.

Haven't driven Nasho yet :)

First pic makes me sad at fail wheel widths/offsets. Im thinking of getting the LMGT2's modified to be 1" wider and 1" less offset :P

    • Just had this happen to me too.  R32 GTR.   Also broke "just before going out onto the track" - someone up there is looking out for us... Very scary since I was about to do a narrow street course with zero run-off and curbs everywhere. Many people on here upgrading to billet uprights and R35 bearings?   Or buying new OEM knuckles?  I am not keen to replace with another s/h 30 year old fatigued part.
    • Top off with distilled water and see what happens. If you keep losing coolant then you know to start looking.
    • Nope.    Grab a varex and turn it down as you get close to home, win win? 
    • So, I've had my V36 for about a month now and have already copped an "excessive exhaust noise" notification from QLD TMR, reported by someone in my local area. It's a twin as per the original, and can have a bit of a throaty note to it when idling cold 😄 and if I do get up it a bit, it can be noisy, but it did pass a roadworthy inspection before sale, so.... ... but in the interest of being a good neighbour, I do want to quieten it down a bit. Is anyone here running a quiet aftermarket cat-back on their V36 or 370Z? And the big, bold question: does an aftermarket cat-back really make much of a performance difference on these cars?
    • The wiring diagram for the R33 RB25 is freely available, and is essentially the same same as most other RBs (just with differences as to which pin # does which job). To get the ECU to power up, you just need to provide power to the ECCS relay, and have the other power feeds that come in from the top left of the wiring diagram (wrt the ECU) that give perma power to the fuel pump relay, the ECU itself, etc etc, all connected. When you put power on all these it will just come to life. It's pretty clear from the diagram what needs to happen. Just follow the lines from the 12V + supply stuff in the top left over towards the ECU. I've even posted snips of such diagrams (not for vanilla 25, I think for Neo and 26) to various threads here in the last few months, talking about what it takes to get the fuel pump and FPCM up and going. Search these up and they will help get you started on doing the same with the vanilla 25 diagram. Hell, for all I know, I've done the same with that one in years past and have forgotten.
